We use the Rio jackets for our school trips that include rafting on the North Johnstone river in Queensland, Australia. Its rated in the top 10 raft trips in the world and the RIO is perfect for the occasion. We also use it on the frigid waters in our south and its great with a thermal to protect from the cold. For the low price, it doesn't get much better than the RIO.

It is good for flatwater, but if you run whitewater then definitely get a drytop. Plus the neck isn't very comfortable, and I don't see a point to the open folded area below the neck. I understand that it is so you can get it on and off easily, but if you take a big splash of water to the chest at the right angle it will go right through to whatever you're wearing underneath. A stretchier neck would make more sense.
