Easy, affordable way to enjoy kayaking!
Pattern Name: Kayak Set Color: 9'2" x 34"
My husband and I are in our 70’s and got 2 of these kayaks to stay more active. We are very happy with our purchase and have used them many times in 4 months. The kayak is durable and withstands the wear and tear of rocks, branches and debris in the water. Here is an overview of our experience: 1. Material is durable and rugged, making the kayak very sturdy. 2. It was easy to assemble; instructions provided were easy to follow. 3. The included manual pump to inflate it is very big and efficient and works quickly. A battery operated one might be easier and smaller if you wanted; not needed. 4. Kayak inflates and deflates easily. On a weekend when we are kayaking multiple days, it’s easy to partially deflate and fold it in half to store overnight and re-inflate quickly the next day. 5. Be sure to dump out the water after using it and to make sure the inner bladders stay aligned when inflating and deflating. We didn’t do this the first time so it was a little off kilter until we realized the problem, which was easily fixed. 6. The seats are adjustable to accommodate different heights, so they are very comfortable to use for hours. 7. Multiple features make it easy to bring whatever you need. There’s a mesh bag with clips to hold your stuff, plus places to put d rings for things like a water bottle. 8. The kayak is very lightweight for how large and sturdy it is! It has multiple handles, making it easy for one person to carry it without help. 9. Product included everything we needed to get going, except life jackets. We received our kayaks in the morning, stopped at WalMart to get life jackets, took about an hour to read directions and put everything together. We were on the water by the 10. The kayak comes in a bag that is large enough for the paddles, mesh bag, and pump. The only negative we’ve experienced was due to the bag completely disintegrating. The material is like a flimsy paper-like reusable shopping bag and does not stand up to heat. We keep our kayaks and gear stored in the back seat our pickup truck. We live in the south, and after 3 months discovered the bag completely fell apart. We purchased a better waterproof duffle bag to replace it. Overall, this is an excellent product that m husband and I both highly recommend! ... show more

This inflatable kayak kicks butt!!!
I don't normally write reviews...but after reading some of the ones posted that I read before buying, I wanted to clear the air and give the real facts on this boat. First of all, for the price it is a steal. They include oars, a carry bag, seats, and so many little essentials. I took it out this weekend with my wife, and dog. My wife got this for me a little while ago but the weather has denied our maiden voyage until then. I inflated the kayak and was surprised to see how well made this thing was. The covering is durable as heck. It inflated pretty quickly for a 10' kayak. When I got into the kayak on the shoreline I immediately noticed it was very stable. The oars are well made also. Once in the kayak I first attempted to test it's stability a little more before going out to deeper water. I could literally lift the sides of the boat up while rocking side to side and it held its own...you would have to be trying to take this boat over on purpose to end up in the drink. My wife took her turns and raced about how fast you could get this thing cruising through the water...the keels they give you to slide underneath work very well. We tried getting our dog in the kayak but being a lab mix, she was having none of the boat and just chose to swim along side. But her jumping in and out of the kayak tested the strength of that inflatable to its limits. She's 55 lbs. of complete maniac when she's in the forest by a mountain lake and she clawed in and out, jumped over the edge, and pawed at the sides....not a single tear or tatter!!! Then when our day was closing, it came to the taking down and deflating, and cleaning. Another smart moment came up...the kayak has 3 air chambers and the valves are all at one end of the unit. First you don't have to walk around the kayak when filling with air and when it came to deflating it, you just open the big flood valves and roll it from one end to the other and the air disappears quickly. There's a drain hole for water in the on the same side as the valves, so as you are rolling the air out you can let any water in the kayak run right to the drain hole also. (The water was not in the boat from a leak, it gets in from getting in and out of the kayak) Once home, I squirted a hose around the unit unraveled again and laid it over the porch railing to dry out in the sun. A couple hours later it was dry, I rolled it up, it went right back in the carry bag with the accessories, and I put it away til next time. Super product. Super price for po boys like me. And durable and tough for lots of fishing trips for me. My wife is gonna buy one for herself now so we can go kayaking with our crazy dog swimming between us...lol. You can feel safe giving this inflatable a try ... ... show more

Looks and feels well made.
UPDATE #2: I was determined to solve the issues described in the previous update. 1. Pumping. I leave the kayak inflated and car-top it. I throw it (literally) on the car and to hold it down I use 3 bungees (1 on each end and 1 over the middle). No more inflating, deflating, drying, packing, etc. It's stored in the shade when not in use. 2. Seats. I attached a strap to the upper back of one seat for more back support, Then throw a cushion up against the seat back. It's like night and day. Much, much better. 3. Work. See #1 above. 4. Paddles. I add one section from the 2nd paddle to increase length. Perfect. No more water dripping in the boat. 5. Keels. They do work well and are not good in shallow water but I discovered the keels are not an absolute necessity. I left them off the last 2 times I've gone out. 6. Measuring pressure. I no longer use the ruler and just go by feel. There are pressure gauges available and I may get one. 7. Recycling. Haven't figured that one out yet. Who knows, maybe the boat will outlast me. I'll keep the verdict at 4 stars but just barely because there are issues though they are manageable. And with that, I conclude (finally) one very long review. UPDATE: There are issues. Not yet sure if I will send it back or keep and modify to my liking. I've taken it out on the water twice and unfortunately I think these inflatables are one of those products where the idea of it is better than the reality of it. 1. Pumping. I was way off on my original estimate on the number of pumps to inflate; it's not 100 but 200 pumps. Still not bad time-wise but some may not have the physical capability for a fair amount of hunched-over pumping. 2. Seats. The seats that come with the boat are absolutely horrendous for the lower back and hips. In 15 minutes I was NOT enjoying myself. On the second run, I replaced the stock seat with a stadium seat and that was better. 3. Work. Inflatable kayaks are surely light but they require triple the work (inflating, draining, deflating, packing, unpacking, cleaning/drying and packing again), especially if the boat cannot be kept inflated. 4. Paddles. The paddles are too short, and since you sit inside the boat, it's a stretch to get good strokes. Plus quite a bit of water drips off the paddle into the boat. 5. Keel. The keel fins work great in open water but you need deeper water to load and unload. Navigating shallow water and where there are logs and rocks is out of the question. 6. The ruler gauge to check for proper inflation is practically useless. Easier just to feel the inflation or use a pressure gauge. 7. Recycling. Because I have a thing about waste, I'm concerned about the boat's ultimate fate. Unlike a rigid kayak, these inflatables, naturally, are not made to last a long time. What's the end-of-life plan for all that PVC? It's not recyclable. My advice: Think twice before deciding to purchase any inflatable. These are my first impressions of the Bestway Hydroforce inflatable kayak: The good: 1. Arrived double boxed with no damaged or missing parts. Everything was fresh and new. 2. Quick inflation, not much effort. While I wasn't counting, the 3 chambers all together took @ 100 pumps. The deflation was much faster and it rolled up no problem. After inflation, I let it sit for a few days to make sure there were no leaks; all good. 3. The boat looks and feels well made. Air chambers are packed within a durable skin of vinyl below and heavy weight nylon fabric above, on the inside and on the entire floor area. 4. Happy that it has a drain at one end. The drain and inflation/deflation ports are all easy to use, accessible and close to each other. 5. Paddles, pump, accessories, straps, buckles and handles are acceptable in function and quality. 6. The boat is fine for up to 2 small-medium size adults. Or 1 large and 1 small. Do NOT buy this if you consider yourself to be wide or extra large. 7. The boat has 2 removable keel fins with 1 each for the rear AND front. Helps in navigation by keeping the boat straight while resisting side wind. 8. The biggest benefit of all: This inflatable is relatively light and can be packed away in the trunk of car! That's the main reason I bought it. If it holds up, I just might have to say goodbye to my old Coleman. The not-so-good consists primarily of design features needing improvement (IMO): 1. Seats (2). The support straps are too low on the back. Also there is no support in the spine and no bolster on the seat bottom to keep you from sliding forward. 2. Paddle holders (velcro straps) are okay for holding the paddles in place but they are low on the boat and not convenient to use. 3. If you're a perfectionist and expect that everything (seams, buckles, handles) should all line up just right from side to side and one end to the other, then this inflatable canoe might not be for you. 4. Instead of a ruler to measure inflation (which will eventually get lost), a gauge on the pump would have been much better. 5. Leak repairs may prove to be a HUGE challenge. The chambers have to somehow be removed from within the covering and then somehow reinserted correctly. After all that work, pray the patch holds up! 6. The "instructions" are terrible. Overall I think it's a keeper and worth the price. Sooner or later I'll try to figure out better seating and am keeping my fingers crossed it never springs a leak! I'm planning to take it out on the water within the next few days, though I'm not expecting any significant news to report. If it doesn't float and go straight, I'll let you know. ... show more

Cheap and surprisingly decent
Pattern Name: Kayak Set Color: 9'2" x 34"
Alright, I bought this so someone could join me last minute to see the eclipse on the water. I let them use my basic kayak (old towne heron 9) and I took this bad boy since I have way more experience on the water. For the money it's a great deal. It has some quirks but overall it's fiiiine. If you understand what this is for you will not be disappointed. It came well packaged and was very easy to set up. I did not read the instructions. You probably should though. This came with everything you need to get on some water except a life jacket. $20 on Amazon. The paddle is a bit wobbly but not bad enough for it to matter. It's just the nature of how it is made. The material is pretty tough. I went over some mud and sticks and did not have a problem. I even went up a concrete boat launch to get in and out of it. I think you should avoid anything like that. Eventually you'll get unlucky or wear it down enough to have an issue. So treat it like the inflatable that it is and avoid anything that might puncture it. On the water I had the pump in the net bag that comes with it, a full backpack and stuff in the zipper seat pocket. At no time did I feel like anything would fall out. I rocked it back and forth and you would have to really lose your balance to tip it. I was also able to completely lay down in the front part. (I'm 5' 8.5") We went out onto a large reservoir and it handled surprisingly well. Just like most basic kayaks the wind sucked, waves were not great and going upstream against the current was not easy. Keep this thing in still waters with little to no wind and you're golden. Since it is full of air it did expand after a few hours in direct sunlight. But it was not an issue. Packing it up was also easy. Let the air out and roll it up. Wash it when you get home and let it dry. Take care of it and you'll have a fine kayak for calm waters. I would totally take this over my regular kayak on long trips if I don't want to deal with something on my roof for hundreds of miles. Or if someone wants to join me again and doesn't have their own. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase. ... show more

Great boat, but DON'T PUT YOUR KEYS IN THE BAG BEHIND THE SEAT
Pattern Name: Kayak Set Color: 9'2" x 34"
Well, I was very excited when my kayak arrived yesterday right on schedule. Gave it a practice inflate at the house and then skipped work early to go hit up the local lake to test it out. The bag with the kayak and accessories is easy to carry down to the beach and inflates very quickly. Maybe 10 minutes after pulling everything out and inflating, I was ready to hit the water. I put my shoes behind the seat and my car keys in the seemingly sturdy zip pocket that's attached to the seat. The water was quite calm, maybe a little wind here and there, and the boat maneuvered wonderfully around the marina. I was having a ball. I saw birds perched on the rocks of an island and a big carp splash next to me -- or at least I thought it was a carp. When I returned to shore maybe 30 minutes later, I see that my shoes are missing from the back of the kayak. And it's hard to describe the feeling of dread I felt when I saw that, somehow, the zip bag on the back of the seat was open. And my keys gone. So there I was without keys or shoes, my phone and wallet locked in my truck. My apartment about 20 miles away. Luckily a good samaritan gave me a lift back home and it was maybe 2 hours before I managed to get inside my apartment. All of the 2 staff who work there had gone and there was no easy way to reach them. So what can I say? The kayak itself is everything I wanted. But something is clearly not right with the zipper bag on the seat. I assumed that it was designed to stay closed, but somehow it opened. Maybe it was the centrifugal force of the gently rocking of the water or me adjusting my position in the seat that opened it up. I certainly did not leave it open. I really wish it hadn't happened for a number of reasons. I went to the house of the maintenance guy, who I'm friendly with and who lives around the corner in a house, thinking he could easily help me. Turns out he was slurring drunk at 6pm surrounded by his wife and kids. He basically told me to F-off and nearly had a freak out that I showed up at his royal abode unannounced. The point of those details is to show that I'm probably going to have to take it easy and try to recalibrate my kayaking after this somewhat traumatic and stressful experience. It really was a crappy way to start out and my trust in the boat will take some time to rebuild. If the zipper opens itself under slight forces of the water and gravity, do I really want to trust my life in it? ... show more

Comfy and Portable - Perfect for My Needs
If your goals are getting on the water and enjoying yourself, this is the BEST purchase. But if you're looking for a kayak that sprints through the water, navigating rocks and raging rapids, this one isn't for you. The kayak only takes 5-10 minutes to blow up and get situated. The seats attach with velcro anywhere you need them to and provide a good amount of stability. If you decide to stop and chill, the seats easily flatten so you can lay down and use the entire kayak as a bed so you can suntan or read. Assembly and disassembly is easy, and I LOVE that I can fit everything in my trunk for spur of the moment kayaking adventures. There are a few quirks, but nothing major. If you're paddling aggressively, be prepared for blisters and lots of water to fall on your head and in the raft. I'd recommend putting a soft tape or something to reduce rubbing on the oars. Sometimes, the kayak looks a little lopsided because the inner air compartments can twist out of placement within the fabric. The kayak drifts a lot on windy days. Due to the size, lack of weight, and less aerodynamic shape, it doesn't steer incredibly quickly, so rivers aren't its friend. Overall though, this kayak is better than I expected. Especially considering how affordable it is. It checks off all my boxes: Easy to bring everywhere, gets me out on the water, extremely comfortable and spacious. Lastly, it's easy enough to carry, assemble, and disassemble. It holds up great, too. I've had it for two years, and I've never had a problem with air leakage or breaking or anything else. 10/10 would recommend. ... show more

Short story. When I found out it would cost over $300 after including the ferry ride for one person to go sea cave kayaking at the channel Islands, I began to look for alternatives. I figured if I bought my own inflatable kayak and brought it with me from Georgia to California on the airplane, but I would not only get to do this adventure without the high cost, but would have a item I can keep. In the picture for the advertising on Amazon , this looked like it would work, although I was skeptical. What I received it I unpacked it and blew it up and took it out for a lake ride with my wife between us. We’re about 380 pounds. We enjoyed that short trip and I took it back home, deflated it and packed it into the backpack that I would carry onto the plane , including one of the paddles, this also went well. Once at the ferry, I thought they might give me a hard time for bringing an inflatable kayak, but the crew did not have a problem with it. A unique and memorable adventure experience, snorkeling and kayaking sea caves on Santa Cruz (sacred cross) Island. Got a bit iffy when I decided to go alone much farther than the chartered boaters since I brought my own kayak, to Cavern Point and into the wind and across intense swells. Although there was a point in the back of this remote cave when my inflatable boat almost was destroyed and no one would have known where I was, it was thrilling and exhausting to say the least. On the hour+ ferry ride in the morning, we saw a great white shark and humpback whale along with many dolphins. Also while taking a break in one of the caves, a seal was stalking me😀 I highly recommend this one known as the “Galápagos of North America.” Don’t expect the kayak to move across the water as effortlessly as a hard plastic kayak. But it got the job done as advertised. ... show more

Comparison Intex challenger K1 vs hydro force cove champion X1
Pattern Name: Kayak Set Color: 9' x 32"
Updating after more use of HF… Just bought Hydroforce cove champion X1 1 person inflatable to try a different model. I also have 2 Intex challenger K1 inflatable 1 person kayaks. I’m an experienced kayaker (and now have 2-3 yrs of using inflatables in addition to hard shell). Here’s comparison!… Both use same air pump (double action so air goes in on upward and downward press which makes inflation faster). Both take about 5-10 minutes to fully inflate/deflate once you have a tiny bit of practice - so super easy. Intex valves seem better construction - they are hard plastic with threaded screw in mechanism where HF are rubber stoppers. I’m a bit worried the rubber stopper valves may not hold up with longer term use especially pulling them out. Both valve types have a “backflow” stop and 2 “openings” - you screw in (Intex) or push in (HF) bigger valve into kayak, then open smaller insert valve to inflate. Backflow prevents air escaping when attaching pump to smaller valve opening. Close small valve when inflated. To deflate you unscrew or pull out large valve to release air. Very easy. HF has extra air plug at rear/stern on bottom of kayak (I thought this might be interior water drain plug but nope it for extra air release… not sure why). ***I am hoping maybe they will redesign future HF with the better hard plastic screw in valves —- hint to vendor!**** Intex has 2 air compartments - flat base & entire upper. HF has 4 compartments - flat base, each side, then little grey “donut ring” around entry. More compartments is better (esp if you happen to get slow leak). Both my Intex got slow leaks ☹️- one could not be patched since it was on a seam and 6 patches plus flex seal never worked. Both my friend’s Intex K1’s also got slow leaks one could not be patched - at seam where skeg/fin attaches. Hoping HF is less prone to leaks.🤞🤞** update - HF sprung a leak at front on top near bow tip but not on any seam - after only 3 weeks use, maybe 4 trips out. Very odd location for leak in middle of right panel. I am super careful about not resting on gravel or sticks so hard to guess how it happened. Getting replacement since it’s less than 30 days and will try 2nd one before giving up on brand.*** Both have inflatable seats and (optional) inflatable bow insert for front of kayak. I found insert to be useless and it takes away valuable foot space. Ps - inflation tip for seat - don’t inflate until it’s hard… it makes popping out the plug impossible if there is no give to push it from other side. HF is “roomier” inside vs Intex. I’m 5’4” and my feet jammed up inside Intex - I ended up resting legs and feet outside kayak on top with Intex a lot of time as a result. More room for feet on HF which fit comfortably into HF nose/bow. (If you are a tall guy buy a 2 person then use only 1 seat!) Huge win with HF on this for me. Both have same crappy flimsy carrying bags. I use paddle board carrying backpack that also has wheels. HF is about 6 lbs lighter than Intex so that’s a plus. Getting a XL backpack to carry makes HUGE difference if boat launch point means trekking from parking lot. My paddle board backpack with wheels fits inside rear of both models behind seat when rolled up. Easier fit in HF, tight fit in Intex. You really need to deflate kayak well to fit in bags they came with. Both models have same mediocre paddles. It’s nice they are easy to transport in 4 short pieces but it makes paddle flimsy. No review from me since I have high quality paddle (2 sections that fit into pockets on sides of my backpack) so I never actually used the one they came with. Both have detachable skegs/fins. HF comes with small and larger skeg options. HF skegs slide into position and lock, pinch levers together to slide out for detaching. Intex also slides into place and locks but it can be brutal getting back out since it’s a badly designed press down lever that jams. HF wins on skeg/fin design. On water - inflatable kayaks are not high performance kayaks. They are basically air mattresses with walls that float on surface of water without any keel. So tracking isn’t great even with skeg - they wobble a bit left to right when paddling. That said, they work amazingly well for recreational use. I would limit use to class 1 &2 water. HF bow and stern are design to ride higher vs Intex where bow sits on water surface. I haven’t tried HF in choppy water yet but Intex rides so low that water breaks over bow a ton in choppy waves so it’s a very wet ride. I’m hoping HF may be improvement since bow rides quite high. **update- HF design is far superior in choppy water over Intex. Water does not tend to break over front and tracking is better and faster with higher bow design.** I do wish HF had made kayak entry about 6 inches longer/more open in front (the grey water “skirt area with inflatable “donut” ring) - it’s super tight getting my feet into boat and I’m only 5’4”. Since inflatable is likely never doing white water and attaching a skirt is not an option, leaving a longer opening at front would make entry MUCH simpler. Overall inflatable kayaks are amazing for recreational use on fairly calm waters. They remove the HUGE hassles of roof racks, transportation, portaging/carrying from parking to launch, storage and get you out kayaking. With a bit of practice setup and tear down time is honestly ~10 mins. Totally worth it! Be very careful where you inflate and deflate to avoid anything sharp like gravel, stones, sticks though - and definitely bring patches! I bought high grade flex seal patching tape that is way tougher than tiny patch they ship with. Just cut off several squares to bring in dry bag every trip. Intex was $90 USD, HF was $129 USD. My early assessment is that HF may be the better kayak but I still need to test on choppy water and longer term use to see if valves hold up and whether it gets slow leaks after a season (or two.). That said, I go out 2-3 times a week so for the price, if it last 10-20 trips it’s almost paid for itself. (Hard shell kayak rentals here are $45/2 hours for comparison). I would never ever pay $400 for any 1 person inflatable kayak - it is not a performance boat. Hope this review was helpful. ... show more
