WAAAAAY Too Small!
My daughter is 32lbs. and of small build. This life jacket would not even zip up for her. The length is good, but the chest measurement is WAY off. I imagine the positive reviews for this jacket are actually for the Youth BioLite jacket, not the Child BioLite Jacket. I have always been pleased with Overton's products until I purchased this jacket. Overton's, please pull this product until proper revisions are made.

Good quality, way to small
The quality on this jacket was great however, it is WAY to small for the weight range listed. There is no way a child within this weight range could zip it up. I have a 4 and 2 year old who are both average height/weight for their age and this life jacket should've fit them both, instead it wasn't even close to being able to be zipped up. In addition, because it is considered "sporting goods" and not "apparel", I have had to pay for shipping twice. Very unhappy with this purchase and the inability to complete a free return.

Awesome Child Vest
In regards to the reviews claiming these are too small- life jackets are supposed to be tight and should fit very snug. This child vest (30-50 lbs) still fits my 6 year-old son, who is 49" tall and weights just at 50lbs (he is just about ready to size up). He has been wearing this vest since he was 18 months old, and we have loved it from day one. Five years later and it is still in incredible like-new shape.
We bought a second Overton's BioLite Child Life Jacket for my now 4 year-old son, which he has been wearing since he was 2. Two years in and it still fits him great and is going strong.
We have now purchased a 3rd one of these vests for friends with young kids that come out with us on our boat. We have successfully put this BioLite Child Vest (30-50 lbs) on a range of 2 to 5 year old kids. We have never had one child complain about putting on (or keeping on) the vest, nor had any kids be unhappy or uncomfortable wearing it. We simply love these Overton's vests and will be stocking our boat with the Youth Sizes as the kids move up in size!

Nice jacket but way smaller than anticipated
Well made but size would be more for a really tiny child. Weight range is deceiving.
I have a very thin grandchild that weighs less than 45 lbs. She could not zip it up and it looked super short on her.
Maybey for someone age 4 and under. But when you have a child that age you usually will get a like jacket with a strap between the legs.
Wanted to love it, but have to return it.

This life jacket save my sons life.
My 4 year old son and myself had a jet skiing accident where we were both throw from the jet ski at 40 mph, his head barely went under the water. The lif jacket did not unzip at all. The buckles did not come undone mine did. The strap that goes underneath held up and also did not come unbuckled. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you overtons for this great life jacket that saved my sons life.

I would buy again
Fits well, have a 2 year old grandson that does not like life jackets, but he does not seem to mind this one. I would buy it again.

Not True To Size
As others have said, product is not true to size. My 4yo son is 40lbs and it barely even buckled around him. no way it could have been zipped. I'm going to order the youth size but am unsure that it will fit either.

child comfort
We always had to fight our daughter on wearing her life vest because she thought is was uncomfortable but this Biolite vest has stopped the arguing and has made our family boating not only safer but more enjoyable.
