Questions & Answers

Last time I went skeet shooting, I did not have any success with these. Is there anything you can advise me?

Skeet shooting has nothing to do with toddler life jackets, according to me. Would it make a difference?

Is this life jacket a size M or a size L?

There is a single size of this particular type of "water wings" and I put it on my daughter for the first time last summer around 18 years old. I am about 27 pounds and 33 inches tall (about a month old). A toddler who can walk well should use it. Infants should not use it. The dresses are very adjustable, so she can wear them until she is four or five years old. This might be of some help.

Is there a difference between the deluxe and the basic puddle jumper?

The Deluxe has a different kind of material on it, as per what I've gleaned from research. I don't see how the deluxe puddle jumper is better than the basic one, as it is so easy to use. In spite of making use of his almost every day for 10 days, my son never has an issue with the material.

In what way is cargenogenic component involved?

It would be impossible for me to guess. Made from a nylon type material, it looks nice. Because an all-time wear of the helmet is not a factor in our household, I would never consider it.

Selected User Reviews For Stearns Original Puddle Jumper Kids Life Jacket | Life Vest for Children

A Puddle Jumper from a vendor not affiliated with Amazon is counterfeit
3/5

I received a puddle jumper that was counterfeit and badly stitched. In the photos you can see a real puddle jumper and a counterfeit (in the bottom right corner). Counterfeit does not contain Stearns logos, nor does it contain distinguishing numbers, such as Model Numbers or Coast Guard Approval Numbers. The product also has a much smaller size and clearly subpar artwork. This is a safety hazard, and the child could drown as a result. There is a listing on this page that includes both fake and real puddle jumpers, so make sure you do not purchase from another vendor. It is wrong for Amazon to allow such vendors to sell their products on their site! The Amazon customer service agent told me there was no way to stop these vendors simply by contacting them. A real disappointment.

It's nice for toddlers, but keep an eye on them
4/5

This is a favorite pastime for my 2 year old. He loves kicking around and having some independence. his little legs kick so hard that he burns off quite a bit of energy, which I enjoy. The more fun he has with it on, the more fun he has without it and just My feelings toward this, however, are mixed since I was once a lifeguard. In my opinion, floaties can give both parents and children a false sense of security in the water, so if you're going to use them, make sure you never take your eyes off your child. I don't know of You should also make sure that your child does not have access to a pool since they may not realize that they can't float and kick around like that without their floaties and may When it comes to toddlers and pools, it's important to be cautious. Everyone knows that, but it's important to emphasize it.

It's time to free the baby! In addition, A little boy of 10 months old She weighs about 8 pounds today, and is about 8 years old
5/5

Having grown to weigh five kilograms, 19lbs, he has decided that a baby floatie ring is no longer suitable. It is the independence of the Puddle that he loves- Divers jump and jump independently, changing from feet forward to feet under to feet back, all with their heads out of Even though he is deliberately tasting the water, he dips his mouth into it anyway. This was my first time using these. I've used them previously for kids 15 months to 8 years, but 8 months is a first for me. He cries if we try to put him in a allows you to jump in the water with no restrictions! A 6-year-old has a big brother who is the size of a 7-year-old I am 7 years old The same old Puddle-Ducks can be found on this old man A looser setting will allow you to jump higher.

I'm going to knock on your door
3/5

A knock off of a Stearns item. It is made to say that it is manufactured by Stearns. I can tell it is poorly made from the form of the warning labels and the way the warnings are printed. Because I don't know what brand this is, or who the seller is, I am not comfortable putting my child in this.

There may be a knock at the door We are offering products at a discount! There is a knock on the door When I pulled the product out of the bag, I immediately noticed it was lower quality and smaller than I expected
3/5

I quickly grabbed one I had in the past since I had actually bought a Puddle Jumper by Stearns before. In addition to being much smaller, flimsy, missing the Stearns label, and with completely different instructions on the back, the product they sent me is not the Stearns that I was expecting. In addition to its horrible, acidic smell, the product was shipped from China (providing that it took almost a month to arrive). The boy who wears it is barely 30 pounds, and I wouldn't trust him in this even if it fit. You should beware! This needs to be returned to the author.

The site does not I thought my toddler was going to sink! It would be difficult for me to leave stars if I had the choice
3/5

It's not uncommon for him to weigh between 30 and 40 pounds at 2 years old A 35-pound bag. Having this thing on caused him to sink like a stone. He couldn't keep his head above water at all with it! In the description, it states that it is made for 30-inch TVs Weight 50 lbs. No way! This is simply.

However, it's a great thing
5/5

While the two of them are on her back, she can float. In addition, Despite her two years old age, my daughter loves this and feels so confident when wearing it in the water. It was a big deal when my son had one a few years back, and I didn't like it. Since then, it has changed in lots of ways but I think it is Her head will not go under water even if she floats on her back with them or swims with her belly down. There are times when she goes into the pool on a slide, which causes her to fall into the water, but she always comes back up.
