Stearns (2000013890) Infant Hydro PFD, Gold

The media could not be loaded. Used this for my son when we went on vacation and I wanted to have him safer while swimming at the beach. He is 18 months old, and weights 22.5 lbs and it fit him just right. The neck opening is narrow, I measure it at 12 inches in diameter, so it fit pretty snugly on my son. He seemed comfortable enough in it, and he was able to float a bit in the water with my arm underneath his shoulders to keep him steady. I did not let him float independently, so I could not speak to how well that would work. The construction of the jacket is of a good quality - it looks like I will be able to get a good amount of use out of it.

Fits my 2 year old perfectly. Definitely floats. Not to bulky for storage.

This has been great since 6 months and now at 13 months it’s still fantastic. Ease of mind to have the correct safety jacket on your kiddo

We tried a lot of infant life vests and this was by far the best fitting, most comfortable - we let our 6 mos. old granddaughter be the critic - after all, she has to be comfortable wearing it. We want her to enjoy growing up around the water. It won't fit for long, but it fits and performs the way a life vest should, floating her on her back and keeping her face out of the water. Great price for a well made product! And at the rate kids grow, we expect well own quite a few vests along the way. We'll definitely check out the bigger Stearns vests from this Amazon vendor! :-)

Great material, but might have been too big for my 17lb 7mo old. She just could not get comfortable. Might just be the nature of the life jacket beast. I think we'll like it more when she grows a little. The zipper and clips and material are well designed and high quality.

Really nice quality, super duper attractive, my son is 11 months and although this fits him he is a little chunky 26 lbs and it is very very tight on his neck, even loosened I actually thought it was choking him. I am really hoping it fits next year if not a lot of money for something I didn't get use out of

Great PDF. I bought it and it was a little big for an 8 month old (he was 16 lbs.) and I still felt like he was safe in it. He will grow into it no problem.

This life jacket is perfect. Snug but doesn't suffocate. The best features are the neoprene zippered back and the handle on the panel at the back of the neck. She put it on and actually enjoyed wearing it as she toddled around the boat. Highly recommend.
