Kelsyus Floating Hammock

Perfect! When the Dog allows me to, I love it. Very well made. I have 4 large dogs that have climbed over it and pawed it out of the way and as you can see from the picture loves climbing on It and laying down but, It has no hole yet. Easy to get on and It keeps you in the water just enough to stay cool.

This floatie was by far the best thing we took on our trip to Aruba. We lounged in these papasan style chairs every single day. I would most definitely recommend this for any beach vacation. It was lightweight, easy to pack, and blow up. I'm really glad we got this instead of the floating hammock style. Another reviewer had mentioned that this was hard for adults to sit in. That's not accurate. If you look at the photo, you can see where the seat is. While sitting the the chair, the Kelsyus logo should be next to your left leg/knee. These were super cool because you could sit upright in them or lounge. We also used them while snorkeling. You won't regret buying one of these. For reference I'm 5'2 and my boyfriend is 6'1.

I should have read more reviews on this item! Though there many 5 star reviews you will see a trend on the recent 1 and 2 star reviews saying that there are issues with the air valve failing. I received my float and inflated it immediately to test it, the air valve would not press back in after inflation. Any air float has the valve press back in to essentially lock it in place and keep it from deflating. There is also a trend of the fabric failing which I should have taken into consideration. While I have not used the float in water I can not confirm fabric failure. This product is sold and shipped by Amazon. I contacted Amazon and while the return process is usually seamless with them, returning this item had me talk to 5 reps and spend an hour on the phone mostly on hold. In my opinion, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT, it is poorly made and there is a credible trend to show repetitive failure. I am now returning a defective product and I sincerely hope it is not resold because it is defective and there is also a sanitary issue with an item that is inflated by mouth.

I purchased this hammock float for my mother. She tried one when she was on vacation in Mexico and "had to have one". She takes it everywhere with her when she expects to be in a pool or on a beach. She considers it a necessity on vacation. She specifically likes the fact that she is immersed a bit in water as it keeps her cool. She loves the fact that It is lightweight, easy to pack, and easy to blow up. She said that the air stayed in and she did not have a problem with it slowly deflating. The product is well made and durable and so far it has lasted through 2 seasons. For reference, my mother is 5' 3" and approximately 110 lbs. Some of her friends used it who were taller (5' 7") and a little heavier (140-160) and it accommodated their stature. She swears you won't regret buying one of these.

I think they should call this the "Water Taco". If you weigh more than 100 pounds, this thing folds up on you. It was given as a Christmas gift and then we waited to use it until it was warm enough. It is a complete disaster. I got the other product that is more of a chair from the same manufacturer, and we love it. I wish I could return this.

I purchased two of these floats and have had them since mid-May this year. My wife and I have used them in our community pool about 5 or so times since receiving them. We were very happy with them initially as they provided good support and are small enough to transport easily. Today at the pool I noticed that one of the floats had a tear in the stitching about two inches wide. My wife and I are retired and I promise that we are not using them to do cannon balls in. LOL. We just lounge in the water on these hot Florida summer days.These are not inexpensive and I paid more for this item as I thought it was a quality float and would, in time, be a better value but unfortunately that was not the case. I would recommend not purchasing these and just get a cheap one.

Unless you’re a toothpick and super light weight, don’t buy it! Warning label says no one under the age of 15 and cannot be used as a life saving floating device. So that’s nice, except I couldn’t even float my thigh if I wanted. Hopefully they’ll let me return. Otherwise, I’m left with losing at least 75 lbs! Lol8/2/18 updateAfter being extremely determined, I realized it's not really about the weight. It's being acrobatic. You need to balance on one leg and gently slide your other leg onto the hammock while slowly bending backwards to lay onto the hammock. Then gently (but swiftly) move your other leg onto the hammock without splashing or moving too much. So yeah... it works!Mine happened to be losing air and wasn't fun trying to get on while there was a bunch of kids in the pool. Changing from a 1 star to a 3 star.

We bought 2 of these and LOVE them. This is NOT a tube float. It is a floating sit-down-in-the-water chair, which is great on a hot day. It has a great cup holder that really holds onto cans, bottles and plastic glasses. It is very comfy, has a nice lean-back headrest, and even though you sit lower in the water than a tube like the Intex River Run, you can still move this by paddling and kicking if you are drifting in the current. The hook-together feature is great for conversation (read floating cocktail party) and even fun if you want to tow behind a kayak or SUP. It hooked to a River Run as well as another Floating Chair. It is feather light and very compact when stowed in its carry case. It has a spring-open frame that pops open and folds closed. It takes only a few breaths to blow up because the inner "tube" sits inside the frame and the cover and doesn't hold much air. Because of its wide mesh seat, it is rated for ages 15+, however my lanky 11 and 10 year old grandkids fit fine in it, paddled all around, and loved it. I highly recommend it, and will probably get more so we don't have to take turns.

Have just used this whilst in Antigua - perfect for floating around a calm see or pool. It travelling well in the suitcase (approx. 40cm circumference when folded down in travel pouch). It was easy to inflate with approx. 8 regular breathes and about 2/3 minutes. Lots of guests showed interest and wanted to borrow it. Can easily float with approx. 16 stone person without sinking - not sure of heaviest weight it can take. Also bought the 'chair' version which I preferred as I like to sit up. Both excellent though.

Great hammock. Have had several over many years. Ultra comfy and totally practical especially with a Kindle in waterproof case!!!!! Bliss! Always first thing in my suitcase and take them everywhere abroad. Was glad to see this one looked just like photo with no ugly warnings on the top surface (they're discretely underneath). Also, unlike a different make, which I returned to Amazon very disappointed with it, the valves on this Kelsyus hammock worked with ease.

I liked the concept of this float and intended to use it to keep cool on those hot sunny days. However I found myself getting too cold beneath the water. The folded size and lightweight carry are great design features for those who like to travel light.

This is perfect for bobbing about in the pool in. Easy to get into, none of this trying to balance on a lilo. Spent hours reading whilst propping my feet on the side of the pool. Easy to inflate with very little effort. Packed into my suitcase with ease. Would think about getting the floating hammock in future, as the seat is well made and got lots of use.

This was a great float you could lie back like an arm chair and bobbing around pop up and blew the sides up off you go...Hold weight well 👍🏻 Kids loved it aswell

I noticed another review said that they had had one of these chairs before. I also had one (bought about 2 years ago). I finally broke the metal rim trying to fold it and ordered a new one, but this one is really difficult to inflate (the valve is below the surface of the fabric), to stopper regularly pops out and the chair deflates over about an hour.

First class piece of kit. Half a dozen breaths to inflate then throw in water and climb on. I just spent two weeks in the Dominican republic floating around in the pool with this. I'm 6ft and 16 stone and it kept me at the ideal height in the water, partially submerged with a cocktail. Quality is good and it easily folds back into its carry bag. Would highly recommend this for lazy pool days.

Floats well, looks OK and is comfortable. Inflation valves are rather trying as they don't have any method of stopping air release between breaths. It's a race against time to get the stopper in before you've lost all the air you got in. I don't find that acceptable with valve designs available and the cost of this item.

I am not happy with one of the floating hammocks we ordered as it does not fold correctly, we have had your floating hammocks for years and loved them but this one just does not fold with ease as the other hammocks have done. Very disappointed. We have only just returned from holiday and only just been able to do a review. It's no good taking a photo the hammock just does not fol

Highly recommend this product. Perfect for lazing in the pool on. Unlike a conventional lilo it is stable and virtually impossible to fall off. Also having a mesh base you actually lie in the water so keeping you cool and refreshed.

This is the third hammock I’ve bought. I actually love using in the see. It isn’t that easy to blow up the outer rim or cushion but I persevere as I like it. Also, the knack of folding it is hit and miss, even though have had them in the past

Unfortunately this was faulty with a hole in the outer shell and although I wanted a replacement it didn't give me the option on the return form so I had to have a refund. I haven't bothered ordering another yet but it did look as if it would have been ok

This is perfect for adults and children we went to turkey and it was so hot, I spent the whole day sat in this in the pool cooling off and it was brilliantGoing to order more for the whole family for next year

Identical purchase for one that had foe over 8 years. Not cheap but a quality item that you will enjoy. Easy to get on and off.

Great for holiday
