I used the Safe Swimmer float (large size) for the first time last night, and it is as great as many have stated. I purposely filled it with more stuff than I plan on usually storing in the dry pack (sandals, shirt, shorts, small towel, keys, and phone - I hope to only use it for the last three items), then inflated it and clipped it on. I actually had to check a few times to be sure the thing was still bobbing behind me! No issues with the dry stuff staying dry, which is a really great feature. It only tugged a little bit when I swam some fly and ***, due to my diving below the surface. Otherwise, not an issue.
With the storage and also the extra viability it provides the OW swimmer, I would definitively recommend folks getting one for their next splash. I ordered the Kiefer version when there was free shipping. :)
