    Worth the money
    I ordered the small one and decided it was too small so I got the big one and it wound up being too big for my dog (55lbs) It also came defective as the metal frame on the inside was dented not allowing the air tube to fill up properly and stay afloat so I wound up returning it. The bigger one may have worked out better if it wasn’t defective but mine was filling with so much water my dog couldn’t lay down if she wanted too. It seemed like someone returned it and tried to fold it to get it back in the box and couldn’t forcing it and denting the frame and I got their return.

    5.0 out of 5 stars My dog and I love this float!
    Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2014
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    I purchased this float for my 40 lb. Australian Shepherd, who is recovering from a cruciate injury and needs swim therapy for her rehabilitation. The float is made from a heavy duty canvas like material, it has wire spring support along the edge. This is used when the float is deflated to twist it into a small folded package. When the float is inflated it adds support to the inflated sides. The float should be used by dogs only. My husband got in the float and the spring side bent inward, My husband later fixed the bend so now the float is only used by the dog. The bottom of the float has two holes, one at each side, which allows water to enter, so the dog is partially submerged while floating. I think this is a great design, allowing the dog to play and lay in the water, like a shallow wading pool. I use the float in our above ground pool, for Briar-Rose's therapy exercises. Briar-Rose can easily step into the float from her partially submerged ramp, however she needs assistance getting in from the water. Since the floor of the float is partially filled with water and it is floating in the water, this makes it a little unstable - which makes it the perfect therapy tool - it will not tip, but it can be slightly wobbly. When I ask my dog stand, it moves like a wobble board, causing her to use her core and leg muscles for support thereby strengthening her legs, back, and rear end. We'll also play tug, with a toy, while she's in the float, which helps strengthen all those muscles and joints. I keep Briar-Rose's nails trimmed and filed to prevent punctures. When used with supervision, the float is a great tool for aqua therapy and pool time fun.

    Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2023
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    If you have a dog that enjoys the pool, you NEED this floatie! It survived an entire summer of my 80 lbs golden retriever and 2 kids rough housing on it in the pool. Sometimes all three of them were in the float at the same time! I did have to re-inflate a few days after getting it and I was worried there was a leak. Turns out I just didn't close the valve all the way. My dog can get into the float by himself and will NOT jump in the pool unless he sees this float already waiting for him in the water! This float was in our pool at least every other day all summer long and it held up beautifully! Hopefully it makes it through winter storage. But if not, it's reasonably priced enough not to break the bank of we need another.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Finally! The dog can now have her own raft!!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2013
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    I bought this raft and started using it in June 2013. I have a 55 lb Chocolate Lab and a 20 lb Jack Russell Terrier. They both LOVE to swim and equally love using rafts. For anyone who is in the same position, normal "human" rafts gets destroyed so easily and are not at all suited to be used by our four legged friends. This raft worked VERY well this summer! It has durable material and a wire frame that made it very sturdy to hold up each of my dogs, and at times the two of them together!

    I will say that by September the raft was unusable. The blue fabric in the middle started to fray and eventually the entire bottom was gone on the raft. HOWEVER, I do NOT feel that this is the fault of the product. My Chocolate Lab kept digging at the bottom to play in the water. I blame this for the cause of the fray. Also, there are two holes on the bottom on each side of the raft. I don't exactly know their purpose, but on occasion my Lab would step in the hole and stumble. She was never hurt but I'm sure it could be a concern.

    I did really love this product, it was worth the money and made the summer much more enjoyable with my dogs. I will certainly be buying another one to use next summer!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Grate for large dogs
    Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2019
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    First let me say my dog a 5 year old White German Shepard(120lbs) loves this float. We have had this float for almost 2 years. This year Sep 2019 it has developed a hole due to the fiberglass ring broke and punched a hole in the float.

    If you have a large bread of dog and your dog likes the water. This float is a must. The heavy canvas cover of the inflatable portion is the best I have ever seen but like any other float the thin PVC inflatable is a typical float.

    One of the issues we have always had is the inflate hole seams to move around when you deflate it and make it difficult to inflate. The other issue we had is the fiberglass ring the lets it keep it share while inflated. When we unboxed it, it was deformed and when I tried to push into the correct position it would not stay and automatically go back tot he deformed position and 2 years later broke in the same spot. Once inflated I would have to hold one end down underwater for my dog to climb on.

    In short we got 2 years of pretty regular use (2-3 weekends per month from April-Sep,Oct)

    1.0 out of 5 stars Valve doesn’t stay closed
    Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2024
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    I wanted to love this but it sucks. Material is great but everything else is subpar. This raft barely held up for 1 day for my 50lb lab. The valve DOES NOT stay closed so it constantly deflates. It also takes on water like the titanic. Once the valve comes loose the entire inside of the raft fills with water and it’s insanely heavy and hard to drain. Swimways makes rafts that have valves that don’t allow the air to escape. Why they wouldn’t put it on the $50 dog raft is beyond me. Absolutely wouldn’t buy this again with the valve and water filling issue.

    I purchased this for my senior pitbull, who weighs in around 80 lbs. He looks forward to the pool being open every year, but in more recent years, he can’t swim like he used to. I got this for him so he can still enjoy the pool. I did try other rafts, and they all got punctured by his claws, or simply didn’t stay afloat with his weight. This one though, it works perfectly! My dog loves it. And my husband even climbed on the raft WITH my dog and it held them both up! Don’t hesitate to buy this; it’s worth it!

    Seems to be sturdy construction. Material feels tough enough to withstand claws. Inflation can be a bit of work unless you have a pump.

    Also the main portion will fill with water as there is 2 opening on both sides.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Valve does NOT stay closed!
    Reviewed in Canada on July 16, 2020
    Color: LargeVerified Purchase
    Valve does NOT stay closed! Valve seems cheap and doesn't have the interior flap that keeps some air in. Whixh is a problem, because not only does it make it tough to inflate fully, but after a 3-4mins the valve cap comes out and all the air will leak out! Not a big deal unless you're in the water...Once most of the air leaks out, it starts filling with water!

    Seriously, try a different floaty!

    Good quality on the rest of the material though!

Il faut bien comprendre que le Fons est un filet tissé serré donc l'eau entre à l'intérieur. Au poids de nos chiens, seuls leurs pattes sont dans l'eau. C'est notre deuxième achat de ce flotteur. Le tissu du premier a déchiré car il était brûlé par le soleil. Il nous a duré 3 longs étés. Vraiment un bon achat!!!

    J'ai un Flat Coat retriever de 72 lbs et il adore nos matelas de piscine. Malheureusement il finit par les detruire avec ses grandes griffes. Pas ce matelas. L'extérieur est en tissus epais et robuste. Impossible de le percer. Le fonds aussi est fait de ce tissus. Un peu cher à 70 piasses mais en vaut amplement la peine. Je le recommande. Seul point negatif, lorsque gonflé à sa pleine capacité le chien a de la difficulter à embarquer dedans. Je le gonfle aux 2/3 et ca fait tres bien l'affaire.
    Mise à jour: 2 mois plus tard, le matelas est toujours en un morceau. J'en suis tres satisfait. Un peu cher à l'achat mais tres economique en bout de ligne. J'estime qu'il durera au moins 2 ans.
    We have a a 72 lbs Flat Coated retriever. He destroyed several of our pool floats with his long nails. But not this one. It is built very robust with thick material covering the inflatable part and the bottom. I have good hope this one will last the whole summer!! The only negative point is that it is too high when fully inflated and the dog has trouble climbing into it. I inflate it to about 2/3 its capacity and now the dog can easily climb in. At 70 loonies it's a bit expensive but very much worth it. I recommend this product.
    Update: 2 months later. Float is still in one piece! A bit expensive but very much worth it in the long term. I still recommend.

    We had an issue with our first one. It had something wrong with the metal framing around the floaty inside the material that maintains its shape. It was bent, so when the dog got on the floaty, it folded in on her from the side.

    We had it replaced with a new one. This one has a valve that is not attached to the outter liner, so as you inflate it and get about halfway, the valve disappears inside and it becomes near impossible it inflate.

    After about an hour and alot of cursing and swearing, we finally got it inflated...

    The dog LOVES it! My dog weighs 100 pounds. She was on the floaty in the pool and I swam up to her floating around and rested on the edge. But when I found how little it sunk under my weight, I hopped up on it with her! I weight 235 lbs! That is a total of 335lb on this thing and it was so stable we could have lounged on there all day together! It wasn't even an issue when we would move around to change positions. We remained TOTALLY afloat!

    ...and to think I had been worried about this thing holding a 100lb dog! 😂 It will easily hold 335lb without the slightest issue!

    I totally recommend this.

    I would also like to add, that even though this Springfloat was made for dogs, it is by far the comfiest Swimways Spring Float I have ever used! I prefer to use this one when I am by myself too! You wouldn't know it to look at its shape, but this is incredibly comfortable for people too!
