Comfort Saddle Pool Float, Sun Comfort & Cove Models, Pool and Lake Chair, Multiple Colors/Styles

This is so great. We used to take a ski vest, life preserver and turn it upside down and this works so much better. I have used it in the pool and I have brought it to the beach. It gives you great support and holds you up very well. They would be perfect for the lake. There is nothing to inflate. It is flat and takes up very little space. It is not something that you have to blow up, you don’t have to worry about a float that has a leak or anything like that. there were several color options and we’re happy with what we picked. It dries quickly and stores easily.

We LOVE these pool saddles! I've seen these advertised from other brands at much higher prices, these are reasonably priced and excellent quality, we have purchased 4! They are bright, comfortable, and float very well. My husband is rather tall (6'5) and this keeps his head and shoulders out of the water. He did comment that at about 275 - 300lbs, they might not be as bouyant, so a noodle might be needed as well.

Great quality float. Easy to store. We use these at the pool and lake. Perfect for kids and adults.

Update: Since writing my earlier review, I have had a chance to use this saddle float and the "other float" in the ocean and in a swimming pool. I have found that the Airhead saddle float is a bit more likely to flip over backwards than its competitor; that is, this one seems to have a bit less buoyancy in the back, so it flips over backwards more easily. I suspect this depends in part on the shape (or to be more precise, the distribution of buoyancy) of the person sitting in the float. But for me, the Airhead doesn't work quite as well in this regard. Original Review: I purchased one each of the Air Head Sun Comfort Pool Saddle (this product) and the other major brand of closed-cell-foam saddle float. They differ, but, to me, one is not better overall than the other. The biggest difference between the Airhead and the “other float” (avoiding mentioning other product by name in review) is that the surface of the Airhead is textured with tiny grooves (perhaps about 2 grooves per millimeter?). I can see how the Airhead might chafe one's bare legs where it passes between them, and at least one reviewer has said so. I think this may be more of a problem for women or men wearing "Speedo" type bathing suits, because my bathing suit (shorts) protected my bare skin from contact with the float. The surface of the “other float” is smooth and a bit rubbery, but not slippery. Some people may find the smooth surface of the “other float” more comfortable. The Airhead seems to be made of a stiffer material than the “other float”, and big grooves are molded across the narrow part of the Airhead, where the saddle folds between one’s legs, apparently to overcome the stiffness and facilitate bending there. There are three such grooves in the Airhead, each about ½ inch wide and ¼ inch deep. The grooves are aligned so that the deepest part of each groove on one side is opposite the deepest part of a groove on the other side. Thus, between the bottoms of the grooves, the thickness of the float is about half what it is elsewhere. One might fear that the Airhead would tear in these thin and narrow places, but I don’t recall any reviews mentioning this as a problem. The “other float” seems spongier than the Airhead, but when I squeezed each one between my thumb and forefinger, I found them to be equally compressible. The “other float” is perceptibly more flexible than the Airhead, but not what I would call floppy. Although the Airhead is a bit smaller than the “other float”, in both length and width, they both provide equal flotation; maybe the Airhead is a bit less dense than the other one. I am 5 ft 11 inches tall and weigh 185 pounds; both floats suspended me so that the tops of my shoulders were out of the water but my underarms were submerged. As one who has carried several of these things on a boat, I can tell you smaller is better. Both the Airhead and the “other float” are closed cell foam, and I consider that to be a much better construction than the other kind of saddle float available, the kind made of open cell foam coated in vinyl. I have owned some of these vinyl-coated saddle floats, and I found that the surfaces tend to stick together if the floats are stacked one on another. Reportedly—although I haven’t experienced it myself—the coating sometimes peels off. If the coating peels off or is cut open, water infiltrates the foam, a serious product failure in my book. I haven't owned the Airhead long enough to know about its durability. I have had several of the smooth-skinned saddle floats, and they have lasted for years. In most cases, they were lost (floated away at the beach) before they tore. Tearing seems to be the only failure mode. The two I have had longest still work, although they have torn superficially around the handles, which are simply oval holes at each end. Overall, I guess I go for the smooth-skinned ones, but the Airheads seem like a good product. I may get some more of each.

Works well easy to store

Color is way off. It's a baby pink/pastel color. It's easy to use but still requires a bit of work to stay balanced. (I'm 5'8 & 130 lbs) Kind of pricey considering it's just a piece of foam but it has held up well to heat & sunlight. I actually keep it in my car so I have something to kneel on if I get a flat tire or something. When I go somewhere to swim or out on the boat, I grab it and take it with me. Works as a kneeling pad for gardening too.

I used this at a high end boutique hotel and had to purchase one for my home pool. It's such a lovely buoyant floaty. You can bob in comfort and play with kids or sip a beverage and relax. Highly recommend!

This float is exactly what I needed for pool lounging without fully submerging or struggling to stay upright. The saddle design is genius—it keeps you comfortably upright with minimal effort and your hands free, which is perfect for chatting or sipping a drink. The material is thick, high-quality foam that feels durable and won’t deflate like traditional floats. The cut-out handles are a great touch for carrying it around, and it dries quickly. It’s also compact enough to toss in a beach bag or camper, which is great for travel. I love the vibrant blue color and unique marbled design—it really stands out. If you’re looking for something simple, supportive, and easy to use for the pool or lake, this is a winner. I’ve already recommended it to friends and will probably be ordering a second one!

Sehr bequem

Très pratique pour flotter assis dans l'eau ! Tout le monde les utilise a la maison ...j'en ai acheté 2 de plus !

These are light and flexible and allow you to sit in the pool or lake!

Excellent

Great product ! Works for the whole family, 100lbs - 180lbs. Everyone out on the boat asks where we got this. The colours are catchy. Love it !
