SwimWays Premium Recliner Chair, Sky Blue

Me vino defectuoso

Works as intended! We did our usual river float holiday this year and I replaced my old floaty (same company, older model) with this new version. I like that you can sit up straight and that you can easily dip your toes into the water whenever you need to. This new one came with the better quick inflate/deflate option, which made life easier. It inflates in two places (backrest and the foot rest area) and it took about 10 seconds total to inflate with our ac/dc pump. Deflating is almost as quick. As well, the fabric dries really quickly, which is handy. Worth the money compared to the many, many plastic floaties that we see abandoned or in the garbage at the end of the run.

For an expensive inflatable this is poor quality. After a few uses in the pool the seams went. Poor customer service.

Great and comfortable. Lived in them for a month in Mexico. Worked well for setting up high enough to read. Just the right amount of your body in the water to stay cool but not completely in the water. Easy to fold back up to put in the suitcase. The opening for the feet was really nice to go down steps and then setting back into the float. So much better than flat floats.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: We have been using these floats for along time and love them. These are a]the longer version by about 5”, so for men 5’10” or taller, I highly recommend them. They are always advertised as pool floats and no doubt they work wonderfully in pools, we have, however always been using them in salt water creeks off of the Chesapeake Bay and they are ideal for such use. They are very durable and comfortable. The newest models have a much more convenient air valve design which makes it easier to blow up and automatically stops the escaping of air. Design: Easy to get in and out of….with a mesh seat to keep you in the water and still protected from jellyfish… Ideal. Fun for kids: For all ages ! We use them a LOT so we give them a workout every year. They last about three years on average, which is very good value for money. I suspect for most people who don’t hit the beach every weekend they will last much longer and for pool use, I suspect they will last even longer.
