Review: Konfidence Float Jacket & AquaNappy

Review: Konfidence Float Jacket & AquaNappy The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseRecently we were given the opportunity as an Ambassador of Konfidence to try out some of their items on our trip to Splash Landings at Alton Towers. 

So with a toddler just coming out of the potty training stage we decided to go for the AquaNappy (so we could relax knowing that at a hint of an accident we would be covered and no stress for us or him.

We also decided to go for the Konfidence Original Swim Jacket to try to build his confidence in the water so the whole experience would be a positive one for him. 

Konfidence: AquaNappy

Is an all-in-one total solution from baby to toddler, it has multiple fasteners making it usable from birth to toddler, which we were thoroughly over the moon with .. cost effectiveness is always a brownie point earner in The Oliver’s household. 

The AquaNappy comes in 9 different colours and patterns meaning there are some fantastic options. We went for the ‘Clownfish’ as we thought it was super cute. 

We loved the simplicity of the AquaNappy, with its pop on and go functionality allowing us to have less stress in the changing cubicle. It also held up well with no slipping or chafing!

It was a big hit all round for the AquaNappy with no complaining from my little guy at all, it allowed him to concentrate on having fun.

Konfidence Original Float Jacket

I am not a massive fan of restrictive arm bands so it was nice to try a product that allowed Joshua to keep full arm movements that also supporedt him in the water.

The Konfidence Original Float Jackets are easily adjustable to customise them to the needs of the child according to their ability and with the sizing range that is designed to be used for a wide age range per size it is ideal to be able to change buoyancy.

After wearing for 2 full days in the pool it was still going strong on Joshua, having used a similar product in the past he often asked for it to be removed, although this one he never asked once. 

It fitted well and did not slide or chafe under his arms. The Zip was nice and strong and had a lovely velcro tab that sits under the zip once fastened to keep it in place.

I loved the bright yellow back on the jacket, Seeing Joshua was not a problem when the pool was empty, however once it got busy I expected it to be more difficult but the bright yellow back was really such a help so this is going to make him so much easier to spot when we are on holiday in a few weeks time.
Review: Konfidence Float Jacket & AquaNappy The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseWe have loved these products from Konfidence and having used these fab products it makes me all the more proud that not only do Konfidence support children in swimming they provide quality while doing it! 

Well done Konfidence…

    I think those jackets are such a good idea for little ones just gaining confidence in water.

    These look really good, Jaime. I really want to get my two swimming, but am daunted by the thought of taking them both as neither can swim. This would make me feel more comfortable, I think, so thanks for sharing.

    I never took Carson swimming as a baby and he’s terrified of water now at 5 years old.. i will defo be learning from that mistake with finley and this looks like it could very well be an answer to keep him safe!
