If you've been looking for a pool float that enables you to relax but that keeps you cooler than the traditional lay-flat type, the Intex Sit 'n Float fits the bill. It's the ideal shape for reading a book while floating around, and I love that it has a cup holder for ice-cold beverages.

I was introduced to this pool float while on vacation in Hawai'i, and I loved it so much that I actually brought it home in my suitcase—and I've since bought three more.
I realize that the Intex Sit 'n Float pales in comparison to the look of quirky pool floats like unicorns or pizza slices, but you can't beat it for ease of use. Have you ever tried to actually climb onto a unicorn pool float? I have, and let me tell you that you're more likely to end up falling into the pool rather than draped across it in an Instagram-worthy pose.

Thanks to the chair-like design and the plastic handles, even the most uncoordinated of bathing beauties can easily get themselves onto the Intex Sit 'n Float. Another plus? It's much harder for your kids to tip you over in the Intex Sit 'n Float than a traditional swim raft.
Basically, it's the perfect way for parents to seem like they're playing with their kids in the pool, but really you're dozing off behind your sunglasses while they splash around. If you're looking for me this summer, I'll be in my pool chilling on the Intex Sit 'n Float.
