Power Swimr

As a swim instructor, IMHO, this is the best swim device on the market ! It actually frees up the child’s arms and legs so they can learn to swim, float, back float and tread water. The thin pads are evenly distributed in the front and the back which won’t flip the child. You have to work with the child when they first put it on and show them how to sure their arms and their legs for about 30 minutes. But once they get it, they will be able to motor around the pool easily. These work for 35 to 55 pounds. So for 2 1/2 through 5 years old, unless the child is over 55 pounds. They should make these for adults who don’t know how to swim ! I highly recommend this device for pool use for children !

Bought these for my two toddlers (2 and 4) and had a great experience using them. They helped encourage our adventurous 2 year old to use his arms and keep his head above water on his own. We noticed a huge improvement in his swimming just after the first weekend using it. We also used one on our 4 year old who has a lot of pool anxiety. He asked for his puddle jumper in the beginning because he is so used to that to keep him above water. The problem with the puddle jumper is that he was just floating and not learning to swim independently. This swimr vest encouraged him to use his arms and legs more naturally to actually keep himself upright. Honestly very surprised with the fact both of my kids didn't mind having them on so they must be pretty comfortable! I will say my kids wear a rash guard shirt so I can see how if you have the elastic sides against bare skin it might be scratchy. Family members who were swimmers all their lives were impressed by these!

This flotation device has been a game changer for my son’s swimming progress! What I love most is that you can remove the foam pads as kids become stronger swimmers, which helps them gradually build confidence and skill without feeling restricted. My mom runs a swim school, and she says this is the only float device that allows kids to freely use their arms and learn proper swimming techniques. It’s comfortable, supportive, and makes the whole learning process smoother and safer. Highly recommend for any parent or instructor looking for a smart, adjustable float!this is not for babies - kids that are already learning to swim/ can balance in the water

If you have an anxious kiddo that just needs a little confidence, this is the ticket. My fourth child threw a wrench in how we taught our kids to swim. He was ready to try without a float but was scared. We did months of swim lessons but still no dice. Enter this swim vest. We took out one insert at a time until he was down to one. He still didn’t want to take it off until I showed him how little buoyancy one had by testing a pair of goggles on it. Finally convinced he took the vest off and immediately was swimming back and forth across our pool. I knew he was ready but this little vest made him mentally ready at his own pace. It would be great for other kids too just because the design is great. Puddle jumpers are my favorite for littles but once they are ready to swim, this is much better because their arms are free. It doesn’t hold them up as high either so it’s more like swimming without a float.

This is excellent for a 3 year old learning to swim. It doesn’t hinder their arms, like other buoyancy aids do, and it’s not bulky. I thus allowing them a to front crawl or play normally unhindered. You can also remove some of the foam sheets, front and back, so that they get use to supporting them self but by bit over time, rather than all at once. I understand everyone learns differently but my son loved this, and it did wonders for his confidence in the water. Very good quality!

I like the way this works for my toddler. Keeps her afloat and is safe in my opinion. I like the free range of motion for them

Great for getting kids to start using their arms

My 5 year old seems very confident with this on while learning to swim.
