Works great and they do not take up much room when not in use.Easy to inflate and easy to pack for travel but I thought we were going to have to leave them at our destination because we couldn’t get air out. It took some work but we finally got it.These are so comfortable and they allow you to sit in them so many different ways. It’s better than the sit on ones because it keeps you submerged so you don’t get as hot.Dont use the pump. Just blow it up with your mouth on the small one. Floats great! If you are tall, the float part will hit under your knees. I prefer to sit side ways in it.These floats are great but they are not as wide as the photo shows. I ordered the XL because we are bigger people and use them to float the river. They do hold us and are amazing just they aren't as wide as the photo showsAlthough they were not easy to blow up, they stayed inflated very well. I only had to add more air once the whole week. These fold down nicely for packing g in suitcase. Versatile. You can sit in it like a swing resting your arms on each float. Straddle it like a horse, or recline back resting your neck on one float and the other under your knees. We were the envy of the resort. Nobody brought anything like that but us and we were asked by many people where they could get some.Easy to pack. Durable! These floats are so light to carry that I don’t take beach chairs to the beach anymore!!! I sit in the water and relax.When this item arrived it stated a lower weight than the description but I can assure you it will infact hold up to 300 pounds and I felt very stable and comfortable on it! An amazing product at an amazing price and the company that sells them are really great to work with too! Love them in fact everyone was fighting over these floats!My whole family uses these. You can sit or lie down and just float along. Our pool is small and these take up no extra space.
