Parent Panel review by Susie
- review date 6 August 2006
Jack is a keen swimmer and since it is often cold at our local pool, I was keen to try the Konfidence wetsuit out.
It's easy to put on - simply open up the top, let him step into it and fasten the velcro straps on each shoulder. It also has a velcro opening at the bottom for handy nappy-changes prior to or during swimming.
The best thing about this jacket is the fact that it keeps babies warmer for longer. Despite all of Jack's frantic splashing around, he often gets cold very quickly and we have to get out before his lips turn too blue! I noticed a definite difference with the jacket on - he stayed warmer for longer and could enjoy the water for up to half an hour as opposed to the usual 10-15 minutes.
He enjoys wearing it too. At first glance I thought I might have a task on my hands in tempting him to slip it on but quite the contrary - he loves it and now goes looking for it when he fancies a trip to the pool.
The only thing I would say is to check sizes, Jack is just 2 and the 2 year old jacket is slightly too small for him - a bigger size will ensure longer useage, especially if your toddler is tall like mine.
Highly recommended for all keen swimmers - especially if you want to be the talk of the pool!
| Best Feature: The comfort and warmth it provides |
| Worst Feature: Be sure of your child's size |
| Verdict: A good investment - particularly for keen swimmers |

"Excellent Buy"
The first time I took my son Jack swimming he wore a pair of swim shorts with washable nappy attached. The smaller warmer pool was closed so we had to use the main pool which I found to cold. 10 minutes later Jack was shivering so we got out. I then discovered the baby warmer. I ordered it online from Konfidence & it arrived 2 days later. I ordered a bigger size which I'm now glad I did as they do seem to come up small.
It's very easy to get on & off especially as Jack doesnt like things going over his head & the velcro is wide enough for the baby to grow. Not only does the baby warmer allow us to stay in the water for longer but Jack is also the best dressed swimmer.

"Very Practical"
These are great. Not only do they keep your baby warm in the water but they also enable you to keep a firm grip on them. Its easy to use and simply grows with your baby.

"Great Buy"
My six month old boy loves swimming and has even completed a first stage Little Dippers course which includes lots of dips in the pool. The Konfidence Baby Warma has been a great buy as it protects against harmful UV sun rays, which recently came in handy whilst on holiday in Cyprus. On the days it was too hot to swim outdoors, the baby went swimming in the indoor pool, so the Baby Warma kept him happy in the colder indoor pool temperature.
I also find it quite easy to take on and off - which is essential bearing in mind how tricky the whole changing room situation can be!!
