Float suits - any good? Worth having?

[Aznerak]

Hello
We are off to Carribean in 4 weeks and wondered if these float suits are any good for my 1yr old daughter. She's happy in the water and has a floatie seat but a few people mentioned these float suits, but I've never used one. I think they are made by Polyotter/Zoggs and similar.
If they are any good, does anyone have any idea where you can get them at a decent price please or does anyone have a suitable one they no longer need and want to sell?!?

i know loads of people who swear by them.... BUT i did meet someone in a pool once who told me that there child (a toddler i think) managed to topple upside down and then be stuck face down in the water with legs in the air IUSWIM

obviosuly they were there and got her upright pretty quickly but just something to be warey of cause IF it does happen you need to react instantly!

DD had a polyotter suit, and we did have to spend some time adjusting floats as if too many they do bob like a cork & topple. Instructor told us to take them out of front first so they tip forward so in swimming position.

Couldn't bring myself to put DS in DD's old red swimsuit! He had armbands!

Both could swim at same age (4)

Thanks for this. I'll see if anyone has one they no longer need and want to sell and if not, try the eBay option! Thanks for your help!
