Captain's Float No Inflation Needed Pool Lounger with Drink Holder, Blurred Blue Double Sided Mesh, Quick Draining Fabric, 3 feet

I’ve purchased several Big Joe floaties because I love not having to put air in them. This Captain’s Float is by far my favorite and worth the price. I fear I will never grab any of my other ones. At first feel, I was worried it wasn’t packed with beads as much as it should be, but once I actually sat in it, it’s perfection. As others have said, it feels like a recliner chair. I like that I’m sitting up enough to be scrolling on my phone (great elbow support) but Laying back enough to have my whole anterior side facing the sun for tanning. I also like being up out of the water a bit, personal preference as I get cold when the sun goes behind clouds. Basically, it’s the comfort that I appreciate. Even though I hold true to 5 stars, I have cons: The cup holder is pointless unless you are keeping an unopened one in it. A can is about all that would fit and it tilts towards you when you are in the floatie so having it opened would cause issues. There’s a pocket that would fit a phone, but the bottom of the pocket sits down in the water, so anything you put in there, would need to be totally waterproof. Storing sucks, as it’s a large floatie, but that’s the price you pay when avoiding an air pump. I’m in a 9” round stock tank pool. You could fit 3 of these in here with the assumption you’ll be sitting and throwing back some margaritas with a couple friends, not kicking and swimming about.

Dude, got this for Father’s Day. Best gift ever. I’m 6’ 3, 180 lbs. this chair is lite as a feather, even when wet. It’s more comfortable than my recliner. It scoots through the water like it’s on ice skates. The Bourbon holder is perfect. Love this thing. Now we are ordering one for my wife.

I love this float. It's a real pleasure to lounge and drift around. It's pretty heavy when you pull it out, so maybe be careful of thrashing it, or the stitching may not last - I mean, thats a lot of strain on a stitched item. After a few floats you have to redistribute the beads back to under your knees, just bounce it and a few gentle kicks, and it'll re-fix itself. But, that being all the "complaints", (and they're really not, more like observations), I'm gonna enjoy this float a lot. Way better than an inflatable, those never last long. Might get a second one for guests. But these things are pretty big to store. We'll see.

Love this float and its so comfortable in the water. However is starting to come apart at the seam and not sure if its worth the price or i just got a bad one. Have only used for 3 weeks

Love it! It's very comfortable on the deck or in the pool. The color has stayed vibrant all summer while in the sun and chlorine.

DO NOT buy this product. After a couple of weekends of use in the pool BOTH of the items I ordered ripped at the seams while in use and a bunch of tiny little styrofoam balls that are inside here things that keep them afloat spilled into the pool. Save yourself the hassle and stay away

love bigjoe pool floats, last one got attacked by a squirrel so we needed a new one. way better than inflatable plastic but also more pricey and harder to store. We won't be going back

Love this chair stays afloat while on and is easy to get on and off. I am ordering another one for my guests.

Love this floater

I booked down and ordered this for my husband who is picky about his pool chairs. He’s over 6 feet so it’s harder to find something appropriate for him. He loves it! (So do I) it’s super Sunday and no need to blow up. I loved it so much, I bought the flat lounger as well. It’s a little pricey compared to buying direct from Big Joe but harder to ship to Canada so I just gave in and spent the money. Hopefully, it lasts.

This item is great if you start out of the pool. Trying to get on it in the water is rough. Beads move around and it is never where you want them. Start out of the water and jump back into it.
