What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
It's the second inflatable kayak i've owned. They are easy to inflate and deflate. Inflated very quickly using included pump.
This kayak is simply a joy to go out in. It’s a bliss. Kids beg to go back out, so they're hooked.
Only negative is that the carry bag zipper broke the second time i repacked the kayak. Deflating is super quick and is pretty easy to get back into the bag. Storage area is a nice addition and can hold a cooler bag with some drinks and snacks.
And a bit chunky in the thighs, but it was perfect width for me. Leg room is fine for me even with the tube in the nose to keep propped up. Very comfy seating.

Highlights
Quality
Overall very satisfied with the product and quality.
I was surprised with the durability and quality for the price and it being inflatable.
One thing is i used a electric inflator but had to finish with the provided hand pump.
Price
I recently had to reglue, but ordered a new one also just in case (cost was low).
The price is excellent considering that you have your own kayak and it can fit in your trunk!
Packaging/appearance
Pay attention to how you unfolded it to make it easier to get back into the bag.
Competitiveness
I’m over 300lbs and regularly take this out with additional gear.
I have the two-person explorer and the one-person challenger and by far, i use the challenger more.
