## Description

desertcart.com : Onyx A/M-24 Automatic/Manual Inflatable Life Jacket, U.S. Coast Guard Approved, Low Profile, Compact Design, Manual Convertible Inflation Option : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Comfortable, Reliable, and Great Peace of Mind - This life jacket is exactly what my 80 year old dad needed for boating and fishing trips. The low-profile design makes it comfortable to wear all day without feeling bulky, and he hardly notice it’s on. He likes that it can be set for automatic or manual inflation, giving extra flexibility depending on the situation. It’s easy to adjust, feels well made, and the U.S. Coast Guard approval gives me confidence in its safety. Excellent quality and worth every penny for the peace of mind it provides when my Dad is on the river alone!
Review: Comfortable, light, three inflation options - I hope I never have to write a complete "real-world" review of this item; short of a test in a pool that would require that I fall in the water, which I'm not inclined to do. the videos posted here and on their web site are enough for me. I absolutely HATE having to wear a life-vest - but to paddle a kayak even in a little creek in NYS you risk arrest and a fine if you aren't wearing one. This is a great option - it's light, unobtrusive, and not uncomfortable. it doesn't restrict movement at all. I like the automatic inflation feature (triggered when a sensor gets wet), and I like the fact that you can disable this feature and operate it manually - if you're rafting in white-water or otherwise getting wet for reasons other than drowning. I love the way the directions are written - offering 'survival tips" like "keeping a positive attitude about being rescued', or "huddling together to stay warm". They even give you a hypothermia chart to illustrate the danger of being in the water too long. It really is good information; water safety is a serious topic - but I did get a chuckle out of it, imagining myself standing in waist-deep water on a 90 degree day in August.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good life vests!
*by T***L on July 29, 2025*

These life vests fit the bill! They fit well, very adjustable and easily done! Setting these up was a breeze! I also ordered recharge kits just so we have if needed. Much more comfortable than other types of life jackets and much easier to fish in.
