One shopper accurately described it as a "La-Z-Boy for the pool!" while another wrote, "This thing is awesome. Not only is it comfortable and relaxing to use, it’s very durable. It easily supports 250 pounds, and it was throughly abused by multiple children ... If this thing ever breaks, I’ll happily buy a new one."

"The cup holder is perfect for when you're out floating on the lake or in your pool, always gotta stay refreshed!" exclaimed a happy reviewer. "The shape/seating position is really comfy; just make sure to use lots of sunscreen because you might fall asleep out there!"

"I was looking for a pool float that I could sit on and read but not get wet," wrote a five-star fan. "This float was easy to inflate and feels very durable. It is easy to get onto and sit on without getting wet or falling off. It has two cup holders, which I enjoy. It has the perfect level of incline to be able to hold a book and read easily."
