Maybe they have changed the valve panel like on the Lightweight and perhaps the PVC coating thickness on the more recent versions? One of my PVC type is blue fabric top and the other is grey fabric The videos may not be updated to the latest version. China stuff is changed with each shipment as they find ways to save pennies, where they can get away with it?
Also the foam seat absorbs some water, providing less floatation. The foam takes several days to dry out completely and may weigh more in high humidity conditions or it the weight was taken after the video?
Just my guesses...
