Pros & Cons
Pros
It inflates fairly fast with its own water and air tight storage and carrying bag that connects to the air valve. It easily deflates on its own, if left be. Fast inflate with airbag, very easy deflate.
The material is thin but surpringly abrasion resistant. It is not as durable as an nrs or alpacka, but it isn't as heavy or expensive either.
It actually can be paddled. There is some side-to-side as you paddle but it goes as a decent pace. It straightens out when you put your full weight into the boat.

Oar yokes shred your arms if you using a kayak paddle and the heavy vinyl construction makes it very heavy and bulky to carry in a canyoneering backpack. This thing * for anything other than still water and very light weight payload.

Over 10oz heavier than the claimed weight is a lot when you're backpacking.

Material is similar to the shells of thermarest sleeping pads, that being a tight, durable woven fabric.
