Will this keep my head above water?

I bought the medium size belt and my weight is about 150lbs. it keeps my head well above the water. When I was swimming in the Florida I pulled the belt to the front and it was very comfortable. I was swimming in the waves and belt kept me above the waves all the time, no water coming trough my head.

I'm 5'11" and about 140 lbs and it keeps my shoulders well above the water. Your husband will probably sit further down in the water. Great product! Hope this helps.

The top inch or so should be kept out of the water. If the upper part gets wet, it won't hurt it, but it should not stay completely underwater

Yes. It is great for floating on. It should hold two people just fine, unless you are really big. If it is blown up tight and you get on carefully, you probably won't even get wet.

Yes. It's the way you set it. It's very sensitive and a strong wind will set it off. Feel very safe having this in my pool

I can't say whether it will be too high, and I'd refer you to their specs to figure that out. I can tell you that it does have to touch the water because the motion of the water is the tripping mechanism.

I think it would float if you sealed it up good, but it is top heavy so it will probably tip over and not stay upright.

I think it will work great! Keep in mind cover your self from feet up leaving head uncover.

This is meant to stay buoyant in the water. It will float to the surface if dropped. Please let us know if there is anything else that you may need.

Not really, it worked better for keeping your head from falling to the side. Overall, I wouldn't buy it again.

It's big enough to fit behind your head. I wouldn't suggest using it as a floaty.

It will keep you afloat if kept full. But its not as sturdy as a life vest. So if youre new to open water, a life jacket would be safer. Wouldnt recommend it for kayaking on rocky rivers. Sharp rocks could puncture the inflated vest. Great for snorkeling.

i'd think not, as it can get extremely hot underneath, however if you are static, say siffting down etc, it will work, just know that it;s going to be on top of your head the whole time...

Absolutely! This is one of the few vests that has flotation material under the dogs chest which helps keep their head above water. Just make sure you get the appropriate size for your dog.

As long as you were facing the wnd, it would probably work well. However I would question whether or not the wind would catch the sides and pull it from your head with a side-on gust. It does not form a tight seal against your face .

i don't believe this is the correct jacket for keeping her floating on her back. there is not a separate neck brace/float to keep her head up if she is floating. also, under 2 years she might be too small for this jacket.

It all depends on the time of year. It will provide good protection from 73 degree (Fahrenheit) water and up.
