SwimWaysSpring Float Original Pool Lounge Chair with Hyper-Flate Valve, Teal Palm

When we opened the floatie - it had worms and eggs. If I could attach a picture I would’ve. Needless to say this product was stored in an unhygienic facility.

Extremely easy to inflate/deflateI find it really comfortable to lay on, in particular because it lets some water on your skin so that you don't feel cold.My only concern is with folding it back into its carrying bag: I worry that the structure will eventually break from being folded in 3 different parts.So far, so good, though!

súper cómodo

I purchased this because I have used the swim ways hammocks before and loved it. This one seemed a teeny bit bigger then the older ones. It comes in a little mesh carrying bag and It folds up nicely. The covering around the inflatable tubing is also extremely durable.

My wife purchased one of these a few years ago - same brand, different style - because the solid coated foam floats we were using were waaaaaay to hot in the summer. Florida summer heat...legendary. We were cooking on those floats. So she got one and was like hey this is pretty nice. Depending on how much air you put in the pillow and the ring around the float, the higher or lower you sit in the water. Weight has a little something to do with it as well. They are amazing. We own several of these and do not break them down and store them for the winter. We have lost ONE in the last FOUR YEARS and that was due to the usual reason things break (kids were in town rough housing). We love them. Why? The sun here gets very hot in the summer...sometimes summer is 9 or 10 months long (or so it feels) so either you bake or you get creative. We float on the weekends for a couple of hours and listen to podcasts as a break in between projects or just to relax after a long week. These are great because you stay cooler when the back half of your body is in the water. Need to "dip" to cool off? Sit up, the float drops a bit, you cool off and back at it. I personally also use mine as a headrest when I flip. We have a sunning shelf in the pool so I lay on that when I want to tan my back and give my front a rest so I just flip the float around and use the pillow as a pillow. My wife has figured out just the right amount of air to put in hers so she's always half submerged and when she flips, she just flips on the float and floats face down. We have on occasion taken them on vacation (cruses) so I know they will fold back up into the circular flat shape they come in but it's not fun. It's possible, not fun. For the pool...these are our go to every single weekend. We set up the podcast, drop into the pool and float on these. You'd think they would be flimsy at the price they're being sold at - again kids are going to be kids - but adults using them "responsibly"...we still have one of the four year old ones and it's showing signs of wear now so I doubt it'll make it through the year but a $20-25 float made it four years...in this sun...used weekly. Worth every penny and then some.

It folds up easily and inflates and deflates easily. Had a second-hand similar one without the new valve on it before and the frame snapped so I picked this one up through here. Not sure why some people complain about this new valve. I think it's great and really easy to use. Also not sure how some people said it got stuck... I don't see how that could happen. Although I would say instead of being able to blow into it from a distance without touching it like what the instructions seem to imply, I did have to put my mouth to it. It definitely inflated faster than the normal openings, and I really liked how it automatically doesn't let the air back out while you fumble to close the opening. This type of floatie is for you if you like to be immersed in the water while floating! Also a note that I sold my snapped one to someone who wanted to try to fix it - They were able to fix it by wrapping the casing of an old pen around the snapped frame!
