Although this seemed to be a little cheaply made (printed on a cheaper material) my daughter loves it. It's got some stretch to it and has snaps on the bottom to great the tail affect.

Good lord my kid lives in this thing. Scoots and hops all over the house.

Top a little small. Overall my nice loved! Necklace was so cute

I've read many negative reviews and I was expecting an ok product as I couldn't find much better in that price range.

I was happily surprised. It was a gift to one of my daughters who is 5 years old and not super tall or big (not tiny either though!).

She loved the tail. She found the crown a bit uncomfortable, but most of those plastic crowns are.

The top is the one item we had (and still have) issues with. It's rather large, but it's not necessarily easy to cover her chest. I suppose it doesn't matter that much at that age, but there is quite a bit of wiggle room and well, I cannot figure out how to tie it right (I'm the Dad so maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I don't think so).

The quality is quite fine, but it's truly made to last one season, 2 max, so don't expect to pass it down to a younger kid or reselling it later. It will be perfect for a summer, maybe two, but then you will likely have to toss it.

Now, I wish you could see the smile on my daughter's face when everyone at the pool was saying: "Oh look! A real mermaid!"

For that alone, it is assuredly worth 5 stars.

Great for swimming
