Very cute. Granddaughter like it and I feel more comfortable withr keeping her up out of the water (she is 8 months) .
It's the right size for a 1 yr old, but it's hard getting their legs in the opening. There is a big plastic X in the middle, but it's not centered, so they need to turn a little left or right. It holds air well, seems sturdy. It did not come with any patches, hopefully it won't need them. Well worth the price, very affordable.
