Water Sling Ring Sling

Great for the pool! Agree with previous comments that it feels a bit loose at the rings when it's dry, but tight and safe when it's wet. Love that it folds into itself for traveling.

What a disappointment! I'm not sure what brand of water sling the mom in the photo is wearing, but it definitely isn't the one I received! The rings are not aluminum as shown, but a cheap, clear plastic that I'm sure has never been safety tested. Of course, you can't get an answer about safety from this China-based company who definitely isn't following even the basic safety laws of the US. (Ask them about the CPSIA and if they have done any testing) The rings are sewn to the sling by a weird x-box job that I've only ever seen on mei tai & soft structured baby carriers. Definitely not a comfy or safe sling shoulder option. The "instructions" are 1 page of small photos of a woman who has the baby already in the carrier, with no details about how to get to that point. If it weren't for YouTube and other baby sling makers who actually give good info, a new babywearer would not be able to use this properly. You get what you pay for, but I would not trust this made in China cheapie to keep my precious baby safe. Beware other sellers on Amazon selling this exact sling with different photos. They all appear to buy from the same factory in China. At this price, you can rest assured you will support slave wages.

Fabric slips more than my regular slings (i.e., doesn't stay tight). But I really like having a water option to take my baby in the pool and lake with me!

I'm a little disappointed in this ring sling. For what I paid, it's livable, but I won't recommend it to anyone. Material is strong, but not soft at all. Rings were thick clear plastic, not the thin metal as shown in all the pictures (including the pictures on the package itself). This is extremely misleading and if you're not familiar with ring slings it makes setting it up, adjusting, and properly securing the child much more difficult. My 32" 24-lb toddler fits in it, and enjoys being carried/worn, so this was an easy transition for her. Breathable, dries fast, easy to clean, light weight. It definitely serves its purpose for a beach carrier. Included two pictures to show the difference in the representation of the rings on the packaging vs in real life.

The ring on this sling is made of plastic not like the metal one pictures.

Fabulous! Easy to use, lightweight, breathable (safer for tiny baby), holds baby securely. Appreciate the wide shoulder coverage for broad weight distribution. Use for brief toting around the house, but looking forward to using at the pool. Gives me peace of mind that if I have to help one of my older children in the water, I can respond quickly without having to put baby down.

didn't work well. my wife returned it.

ring slides a little, i tie it off to make sure it doesn't loosen. could just be my lack of practice
