Pros

Only complaint is that the skeg (rudder/fin on the bottom) is really difficult to get off sometimes. It tracks very straight with the longer of the two skegs provided. Max capacity of 220 lbs, which seems about right. Only thing i would change is the ...  Read More

It seems pretty strong and durable. It is compact yet sturdy. Bought it last may and use it first time at shasta lake this labor day weekend.

Soft sides and bottom are perfect for our young grandkids. Non-premium seats hold air very well. The inflatable seats with straps are more comfortable than expected.

Inflation is easy. Easy to inflate in 5 mins. When it comes time to stowing it away, it's better if it's already dry. You might have to do that later to avoid mildew forming.



Cons

This kayak is very flimsy and appears cheap. The camera mount is exceptionally flimsy. The intex return policy is bizarrely gothic and fashioned to deter any and all returns. A refund would be better.

Bottom deflated on first use and won’t keep air. Do not recommend an inflatable. Inflatable kayak as a concept is a great idea - just never by from intex. When inflated to the recommended pressure with the provided gage, the bottom chamber is too sagg...  Read More

Quality


I am first time kayake user and had no problems with this product!


Surprised at the quality of this kayake.


The softer shell premium seats that come with the excursion do not hold air.


The weight is a drawback; it is heavy to move (the box says to lift it with the help of a second person).

Price


Price is right for this excellent kayak.

Packaging/appearance


I used the deflate on my pump as well which made these super easy to pack back up in the bag.

Competitiveness


This is the second intex excursion pro k2 that i have purchased.
