E-Onfoot Swim Buoy Open Water, Swimming Life-Saving Drift Bag for Open Water Swimmers, Highly Visible Buoy Float for Safe Swim Training

I wanted to try out a swim buoy because I swim in the Hudson River and I wanted to make sure the crazy jet skiers could see me. It was much cheaper than the others sold on Amazon and I was pleased with the quality. It is easy to inflate and put on and works great. Now I am very visible when I swim and I will never swim in open water without it. As long as you are swimming against the wind or there is little wind, you don't feel it at all. The only drawback is that when you are swimming against a wind over 7 or 8 knots, the buoy sometimes blows back and interferes with your arms. This, however, will happen with any of these inflatable buoys.

No frills . Seems durable. Very visible. It floats well, and hardly let's you know it is there. I'm light (140#'s). A heavier person might overwealm/sink this while resting on this.

For the price this “floaty” works well. I use it while snorkeling (in the ocean) in order to be seen better by passing boats.The strap that connects the float to the “belt” isn’t very long, so I attach a line to the float (instead of the strap) which allows me to swim down to the bottom in 10+ feet of water

Great for snorkeling. You don't have to leave anything on the beach. Just bring it all with you. Be seen by boats and others. Makes it safe. The fish don't seem to mind the bright color either.They are big enough to put your hat, sunglasses, clothing, etc. Keeps it dry.

Does exactly what it is designed to do. This cheap swim float is large enough to keep you a float and the orange is highly visible. It comes with a leash which worked great for me for open water swimming. It's easy to inflate and deflate and the buckle latches securely to keep it attached.

Great product, I use it for open water swimming, it provides all the safety measures I need. The product is very bright so I can be seen by boats, if I am in break I can grab a hold of the buoy. I highly recommend this product.

I used this in Maui. We went snorkeling every day. Just used on between my husband and myself as we always snorkeled together. Good snorkeling in Maui right off beach, no need to pay for tour. Felt confidant we were visible to the boats.

I purchased this model to replace a name-brand buoy because its color is almost all faded. It was less than half the price of the name-brand buoy. This new buoy works fine for open water lake swimming, but it is definitely flimsier than my other buoy. The strap is about half the thickness of the name-brand buoy and the buckle is much lighter and thinner. As noted by other reviewers, there is no place to connect the strap to the buoy except by putting it through the handle. The buoy material seems to be the same thickness as the name-brand buoy. ALSO, I ORDERED AN ORANGE BUOY AND WAS SENT A
