ONeill Wetsuits Child Reactor USCG Life Vest

Love this vest. Fits my 4 year old perfectly. He’s 46lbs

Good quality...performs as intended.

Very pleased with fit and childs comfort level/confidence when wearing

This is a horrible product. I bought it a month ago and my 2yo son has used it 3 times. I use the term used lightly as it has been used in the water once when he jumped in to cool off. The other two times he wore it on a boat. The right side is separating at the shoulder- the entire length of the connection is literally hanging by a thread. On closer inspection, the handle behind the head - what you would grab to save the child if he fell in is also separating... Zero stars.

Its a little big, but he enjoys this much more than the ones with the cuffs and it doesnt restrict his head movement. The stitching is high quality and the handle at the top makes it great to fish him out of the water if needed. The added pad for the strap that goes between the legs helps too.

These are really small. We have many 30-50lb vests and these seem to be way to small. My boy is 40lbs and really skinny and he struggles wearing.

The child vest comes with an elongated collar-strap for easy grabbing along side the boat. It also boasts a strap for between the legs to ensure the child does not slip out. All more than relevant seeing as to how you are buying a vest for safety purposes!

Love it! Very comfortable for our 6 year old.

My son isnt a strong swimmer yet, so we need life vests for simple swimming in town pools and state beaches. (all flotation/swim assistant gear needs to be US Coast Guard approved). This was very comfortable and gave him more range of motion in his arms while swimming. Unlike the classic boxy nylon life vests, this one didnt seem to leave a red mark of irritated skin under his armpits, which is always an added bonus.

Very tight on our 43lb 4year old, sent back
