Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I ordered two of these - blue and orange. They're just the same except color. I removed one star because of the price... these are pretty pricey. I paid several dollars less for similar ones (different colors / pattern) at a local chain store and I found absolutely no difference in quality between these and those. They''re even the same brand and in the same box. But if you decide to purchase these for the convenience of having them delivered to your door, here's my review... I purchased these for a six-day long vacation because I needed floats that would be lightweight and pack up fairly small. These are perfect for that. They pack smaller and weigh MUCH less than full-length inflatable floats. I was surprised at the quality and durability... they were excellent about holding air with very little to no leakage. They're also easy & quick to inflate. I used them in pools and also at the beach in the protected waters near the shore. (I am NOT advising anyone to do that... I am just telling you what *I* did.) I weigh about 165 and they held me up well. I never worried about tipping or going under. I'm confident that they'll hold up ~ 200 lbs. with no trouble. Maybe more. I think this is my favorite type of float because I could sit / recline on them but my midsection was slightly submerged. It's much easier to keep cool that way! Also, I find that they are easier to get on and off of than the usual full-length floats. That's just me, though. Your mileage may vary. :) Anyway... Reviews have helped me make LOTS of great choices, warned me about not-so-great ones and probably saved me from wasting money! I try to repay the favor by writing detailed, helpful ones.
