Vlokup Lightweight Breathable Toddlers Swimming Reviews Summary

Comfort and Fit

Pros:

• "It holds little and big babies like a charm, tightens up great, and my girl Can sit on my hip all day without a problem."
• "Feels very durable and the rings are sewn in well and feel sturdy."
• "It’s very comfortable and provides a lot of support!"
• "The rings are sturdy metal and supported my 16 month old well."
• "It’s super light weight. The baby’s weight is well distributed and I experience little to no back pain."
• "It took so much of the pressure off of my back."
• "It’s very comfortable on my shoulder which is also why i like this sling."

Cons:

• "When I do use it, it’s only around the house and I’m still holding the baby because I’m afraid of him sliding out!"
• "I need to wear a t-shirt to protect my skin, which makes it less fun to be in the water."
• "The tail is also really long and bulky to wrap around the rings, and the tail gets in the way in the pool."
• "I can't imagine using this as my only carrier because it also feels less than secure while dry since the mesh material is very slick."
• "This carrier didn’t work well for us, it kept bunching up and was hard to adjust, and hurt my shoulder."
• "The material constantly slipped, even though I threaded the rings constantly."
• "Sometimes the ring slides down off your shoulders as you wear it and the baby ends up with the ring in their face."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "The breathable mesh fabric means he can be in the carrier even in the hottest days without overheating."
• "The mesh is really high quality and the aluminum rings are seemingly seamless and sturdy."
• "The material has a football jersey feel to it and it’s really durable."
• "The fabric is lighter and more choice in color of fabric."
• "The mesh is so breathable and it feels very sturdy."
• "The fabric has held up well to wear and washing."
• "It also machine-washed well."

Cons:

• "The only thing I dislike is the rings are attached to the sling itself so you’ll have to hand wash."
• "Cute but doesn’t seem sturdy enough for me. Great for the water! But that silky material slowly slips through the rings and he slides."
• "I wish I had returned it and purchased a different one made of cotton."
• "Eventhough i love the color, the material isn't as stretchable as i thought it would be. Baby doesn't like it because it get hot too quickly."
• "It's a surprisingly scratchy material! It's uncomfortable to wear against the skin, which is obviously the case when swimming!"
• "Material is too slippery. Slick, satiny feel."
• "The quality is not great, and often the fabric gets twisted and the rings overlap."

Security and Safety

Pros:

• "Baby loved it and it felt very secure in the pool."

• "The aluminum rings make the difference!! Used for the first time in the pool and my baby was super secure and happy."
• "Overall, it's a good and safe sling."
• "Really like this sling, feels great in and out of water baby feels secure when he's in it nice and cool feel. Easy to put on too."

Cons:

• "I can't seem to get a good tight and safe Evelin's carry with this sling even after following included directions and watching other sling tutorials on YouTube."
• "The fabric slips over the baby's head without Mom even noticing."
• "Baby loves the material, but slips out. Doesn’t hold my 12 lbs baby in very well. Slick material."
• "This sling is not safe at all at least for smaller babies."
• "The rings do not hold the fabric. The fabric does not tighten in the rings to hold your baby."

Usability and Convenience

Pros:

• "I love the breathable stretchy fabric, and the tail is nice and long AND has a pocket!"
• "I love that it has a built in little pocket to fold it up into as well."
• "It’s super portable and has a built in pocket at the end of the tail to tuck the rest of the sling into."
• "Small and lightweight so it's easy to stash in the diaper bag."
• "I love the ring sling style - you can put it on while still holding the baby, they snuggle in easily, and it's easy to toss in a diaper bag."

Cons:

• "Be careful putting this on the fabric is slippery so you need a little more practice getting a good seat and hold on baby than with a normal ring sling."
• "One thing people mentioned was the fabric slipping, if you are new to ring slings or have not experienced using a fabric ring sling this may be a learning curve for you."
• "Ring slings are the most convenient baby wearing style but it does take a little practice."
• "I can't get a good seat for my son. The material constantly slipped."
• "I am not a fan of this wrap. I’ve had wraps before with my older children and when I seen this I was very excited as it if water safe BUT I did not feel my child was safe in this so I did return it."
• "I couldn't figure it out and for me it got uncomfortable and didn't feel safe to just leave him in it."
• "This wasnt easy for me to get a hang of putting it together easily and safely, you must pay careful attention on how to get it ready for you to insert your little one without doing it the wrong way."
