Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We purchased the child size for my son, who is right at 30lbs. I had seen a video of a similar life jacket flipping a child face down in the water. Before I relied on this life jacket, I wanted to test it in a controlled situation. We made sure to put it on him correctly, and slowly put him in the water. As soon as we took our hands off of him, sure enough the life jacket immediately flipped him face down. In the half second that it took to turn his head, he had already swallowed a large amount of water. It was very scary to know that this could have been deadly it we had relied on this jacket, without testing it first. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE parents, try this jacket on your child BEFORE throwing it on them, and expecting it to work properly.
