How to Choose Your Unicorn Float
Price is obviously a factor — but it's not the only one.
The quality of the PVC or vinyl matters a lot. The finish quality directly affects how long your float will last. Avoid the cheapest options — they tend to deflate fast and don't hold up.
Look for a universal inflation valve so you can use an electric pump for quick, easy inflation. And go for models with handles for better safety and stability on the water.
If the unicorn float is going in a backyard pool, pick a fun, eye-catching model that adds a bold touch to your outdoor setup. Consider rounding out your collection with inflatable cup holders and drink holders too.
Now all that's left is to pick your favorite and soak up the sun all summer long!

FAQ: Unicorn Float Comparison
What are the best unicorn float brands?
Recognised brands for quality unicorn floats include Swimline, Intex, BigMouth, SunnyLife and Swimways. These brands use reinforced PVC of minimum 0.4 mm with solid seams. Be wary of very cheap imitations (under €8) whose thin PVC punctures easily.
What is the difference between a 60 cm and a 100 cm unicorn float?
A 60 cm unicorn float is designed for children aged 3 to 8; it is used in shallow pools with supervision. A 100 cm model suits adults or older children. The larger the float, the more stable and comfortable it is. For long relaxation sessions on the water, choose an adult model (90–130 cm).
Are giant unicorn floats durable?
Giant unicorn floats (120 cm and over) are designed for one or two adults. Durability depends on PVC thickness and seam quality. Quality models (€15 to €40) last a full season with proper care. Very cheap models (under €10) generally puncture in the first season.
Should I choose a 1-person or 2-person unicorn float?
A 1-person unicorn float (70–90 cm) is ideal for someone who wants to relax on the water. A 2-person model (130–150 cm) lets two people face each other — ideal for teenagers or adults. 2-person models are bulkier to store and less manoeuvrable in a small pool.
How should I choose a chlorine-resistant unicorn float?
All standard PVC unicorn floats experience slight degradation from chlorine over the long term. To maximise durability, rinse the float with clean water after each use in a chlorinated pool and dry before storing. Thicker PVC models (0.5–0.6 mm) resist better. Good-quality PVC without phthalates is recommended.
