Any ladies got one, would you recommend it, any other points? I'm considering purchasing one for a friend, so is there anyone in the uk with a s/m who might be able to let her try one on?

I have one and I've been happy with it. It seemed big/bulky at first compared to the play specific PFD I had before. It's nice to have a women specific cut and I like that I can carry my rope in the front pouch. I haven't used the bladder pouch, so I can't comment on that. If possible, have your friend try one on, my XS-Med doesn't fit a couple of my smaller friends.

I have the xs/m and I really like it. However like the previous person said, do remember they are *ahem* American sizes, I'm quite tall for a girl (5ft 9\") and the s/m is almost too big. I have all the straps tightened as tight as they'll go, and have had to cut off about a foot of extra strap from the waist ones. Also, the wonderpro isn't CE approved so technically you can't wear it in competitions in UK / Europe, however it has US coastguard approval so I wouldn't be even slightly worried about using it...
Other than that - super comfy, floats me nice and high, good buy. Defintely recommend it.
