Buying Guide: How to Choose

• Pool Float Types

Depending on your requirements and users, you can choose from the following types:

Classic: mattress-like, allows you to lie down and rest. Made from foam or inflatable.

Double-user: for two persons who sit side-by-side or face each other.

Family floats: a doughnut design that supports many people who are faced toward the center, with feet in the water.

Toy floats: interesting design solutions brought us different animals like swans, tigers, dolphins, but also food一pizza slice, avocado, watermelon, pretzels…the options are truly numerous.

• The material

Hugh quality material means longevity. Also, some materials are easier to handle and store than others. Usually, you have two options: foam pool floats and inflatable floats. Foam pools have a soft foam core, wrapped with a vinyl layer. They are durable and floral even when punctured.

However, they are not very convenient for storage. Inflatable floats require some manual work but are much easier to store and move. It is especially important to get a quality material float since it is very frustrating when you frequently have to inflate and deflate.

• Size

When choosing the size, besides the obvious storage problem, also consider the size of your pool. You don’t want the pool float to take up most of your pool. Some of them are presented in the following list, which contains some of the best pool floats on the market.

Conclusion

If you are planning to purchase a pool float, set your priorities straight and consider who will mostly use it. All of the types mentioned above are quality floats, and they should serve you well. Keep in mind that you can always contact the provider and replace the product you received because most of the mentioned customer complaints were based on flawed products from the series.
