If you have an active child, this is not the floation device to buy. My granddaughter almost drowned. The float flipped over and the weight of the float held her head under water. Even with very short reaction time to flip the float back over, she was terrifed and now is afraid of the water. I threw the Baby Spring Float in the trash. I know it is better than most floation products on the market, but I would rather hold her in the pool, than have her drown.
