A life saver for water activity.
A truly emergency drown saver for all swimmers, Fishing and Surfing.I was skeptical when I first took it out of the box and set it up on my wrist to test it during a recent vacation. The device seemed big and felt awkward when I first jumped the water. But after a few minutes of paddling around, I barely felt it. I wore it off and on while wake-boarding, jet-skiing and even swimming in open water for exercise. When I lifted the lever, the airbag shot out just as advertised and pulled me straight to the surface, where I had to kind of wrestle it into position in front of me to keep my head above the waves. Once in that position, it provided more than enough buoyancy to keep me afloat. Swimming to safety once it is inflated is another skill altogether. I ended up taking it off my wrist and using it more like a kickboard. It should come with a tether so that once the user is safely afloat, they can more easily get themselves to safety while staying attached to it in rough waves. If you buy it, be sure to practice with it to figure these nuances out for yourself before relying on it to save your life. After the drowning danger has passed, the wearer can use the built-in whistle and compass to navigate and get the attention of nearby swimmers or rescuers if needed.

Great safety float for a day at the lake or ocean! Especially if on a boat!!!
Goes on wrist for emergency use or for a floatation device while in the water. Easy to put on. Swim around then you can activate easily. It blows up. Then you can be seen easier with the bright orange ball which also serves to help float. Then it gets deflated after you are back on land or side of pool. Lay flat to fold back up. Nice extra float to have for emergency or just for the heck of it. I purchased this for the backyard pool at first for practice the we will be taking to the beach with us. I am very happy with this design and love that it easily fits on my wrist to be used as needed! I also really appreciate that it comes with a thank you card and directions!

I deployed it out of the water to ensure it is working and there was no leak. It work. A bit heavy and inconvenient specially for smaller children or stature, but a small price to pay for safety. I just hope we never have to use it. If we do, we hope it would deploy properly and be able to save mine and my kid's lives.

Worked great
Bought this for my little sister because we where going to the lake and it worked out amazing. We didn't have to use it thank goodness but we did test it out in a 12ft pool and it did the job. Make sure you go and buy the little air cans for it. I can't think of what they are called but they do not come with the bracelet.

Great safety precaution device!
The heYong worked great for me out in the rough water off North Carolina. I tried it once in the deep where I couldn't touch and it held my weight completely. The whistle is piercing and could be heard from far away. I uploaded a video close to shore showing how it works. I'd recommend it to anyone who might be in a water situation where they or their child may get into trouble. Better safe than sorry.

Fortunately didn't have to use it
Fortunately didn't have to use it, but it fit my 10 year old son fine. We pulled it to check how it worked and it blew up as it should and my son was able to practice holding on to it. Great for additional piece of mind!

I bought this for my wife who has hard time overcome the fear for water. It is well made and sturdy. The adjustable wrist and the mechanism are comfortable for any size hand. It has the potential to be a life saver!
