The first one had a bad seam and I had to get a replacement. Swimoutlet was great about swapping it out very quickly. The second one lasted a little longer but a seam failed in it too. This is just a poorly designed product. If you don''t inflate it far enough then it will collapse in on itself because there is too much flotation in the front in rear and not enough in the middle. If you inflate it enough to support your infant then the seams will tear.
