No, this inflatable lifeguard float is intended as a costume accessory and prop. It is not a certified life-saving device and should not be used for actual water safety.

Troubleshooting
Float does not inflate properly
Ensure the inflation valve is fully open and there are no obstructions. Check for any small leaks around the valve or seams.
Float is losing air slowly
Inspect the inflation valve and seams for any small punctures or tears. Use a repair kit suitable for inflatable vinyl if necessary.
Strap is difficult to attach
Ensure the strap is correctly aligned with the designated attachment points on the float. Check for any damage to the strap or attachment loops.
