After much kayak research, I decided on the Perception Joyride as my first kayak because of its quality, features, and cost. I especially like that this kayak has a sealed "bulkhead", which means if I capsize the boat will float because it has a sealed-off area of air. The bulkhead doubles as a dry storage area, so I can keep things in there that I want to stay dry (sweatshirt, beach towel, shoes, phone charger, etc.). I wish this had a drain plug. I plan to drill and install one myself. I can reach the storage area while seated in the kayak. I do have somewhat long arms, so I don't think everyone will reach both locking-handles easily. But regardless, it's great to have a dry storage area that doubles as a bulkhead. The adjustable foot rests are fantastic. That gives me a feeling of stability, and also helps my back not hurt. The seat is comfortable. The base (supporting the legs) can tilt up for thigh support. And the back can tilt back if you want to lounge, but I prefer to keep it more upright while paddling. I like the stretchy ropes to hold stuff on. I used one to shove a very light blanket under, and I stuck a thing of french fries in another of those areas! The water bottle holder is nice; I prefer to tilt my bottle down so it doesn't impede my view, and also so it is secured in case of waves - and it's wonderful to be able to be able to stow the water bottle either way. The selfie slot will take some getting used to. The bungee there was pretty taut. I could fit my phone upright without a case; but trying to tilt my phone put too much pressure on my phone. So I stretched out that part of the bungee, and now my phone with case fits well (but still snug enough to stay put) in either of the 3 tilt angles. The kayak is very sturdy (thick plastic), floats nicely, tracks well (I didn't feel a pull either left nor right), and feels stable. The handles are nice, especially that they're built-in. The small rubber skid plate at the back bottom is nice for when moving this around on land. Tilting it on end doesn't cause the plastic of the boat to get scratched. The freight company that delivered my kayak to my yard was fantastic! The kayak did get a little bit scratched - on the side where the factory sticker is was just some very small scratches, and on one end was a big gouge. For the gouged area, I cut the sharp areas off with scissors. Because I'd read reviews that mentioned this possibility, I wasn't too disappointed, and I realized it's part of the risk of having a kayak delivered rather than picking it up in a store. I've since ordered a 2nd Joyride from Amazon. The 1st of those got stolen by the freight company, and never arrived. That was a bummer, since I woke up at 5:30am to be ready for the delivery, not to mention the price of that Joyride was a really good deal. The 2nd of those didn't arrive on the delivery date, and they sent me a notice to reschedule the delivery for a few days later. That was again a bummer because I woke up at 5:30am for that delivery. So when I clicked to reschedule, I opted for a delivery later in the day. That one arrived as scheduled, and the kayak was in perfect shape! Overall, I had an awesome freight company the first time (for kayak #1), a horrible one the second time (for kayak #2.0 that the freight company stole), and a good one but didn't arrive as scheduled the first time (for kayak #2.1). So half the battle is finding a kayak in stock, and the other half of the saga is if/when/how it gets delivered. But once they've arrived, hopefully not too badly scratched up, the Joyride is a fantastic kayak!

I spent about a year researching trying to find the best kayak for what I wanted. Though it wasn't my original choice, I think it's great for the price. It came delivered with no issues or defects. I use this mostly on rivers and occasionally larger lakes. Pros: - The seat is super comfortable and adjustable - foot stabilizers are also adjustable. - the dry storage holds a lot and has a great seal on it. - good stability and maneuverability despite not having a skeg. i took it out on Lake Michigan and it was very windy and choppy waves and I never tipped or came close to tipping. - handles for lifting onto mounts or for loading - very stable Cons: - I wish it had a skeg on it, but it still has great stability and maneuverability. - only one set of straps. I plan to add more cross straps to the front of the kayak so I can store my life jacket in front as opposed to behind - I wish the holders, especially for the drinks, were deeper. Larger drink containers can easily fall out Overall, great kaya for the price. I got the matching universal paddle which has also been great and they look great together!

First of all for me to purchase a kayak on Amazon was something that I really never considered until I started researching kayaks and discovered that the Perception brand was one of the best out there for a beginner to intermediate kayak paddler. Like I said, I did my research so when I found the joyride perception kayak, I was immediately intrigued, and then I saw my favorite color offered in the joyride series and I ordered it. It was delivered in a matter of days, and I am so in love with this kayak. I ordered the trolley to go with it because I am older so I did not want to be trying to carry a kayak from my car down to the boat launches and struggle, I did struggle a little because I didn’t know how to put the kayak onto the trolley, but once it was in the water, it was truly magical. I love all of the storage that this kayak provides me. It has a huge storage dry lock area in the boat. It has adjustable leg feet pedal things and the chair/seat is very comfortable and it also is adjustable and there is even a small spot in the back of the chair to put a small cooler , or in my case, my life jacket and then the selfie holder for your phone is perfect also. A couple weeks after my first voyage with this kayak, I ordered the perception to screw into the pre-slated spots on the boat so that I could add my own touches to it that was even wonderful. There is no drain plug for the boat, but that is all right. I wasn’t expecting the boat to be 50 pounds but honestly, I didn’t even mind it because like I said I got the trolley so it was like carrying a stroller which was pretty easy. This would have allowed me to add more of my videos. I certainly would’ve added more videos. This is truly one of the greatest purchases I have ever made , yes it’s a little pricey but believe me you will thank me later. It’s a solid kayak very sturdy and you can trust

This is my first kayak and I would urge anyone thinking about the sport to go with this product. It tracks extremely well and the seat is very comfortable. The sealed off hull and storage compartment are awesome for keeping a ton of stuff dry. There’s a ton of room. In fact, I store my PFD in there with room to spare when carrying the yak to water. The only downside is that there is no drain plug. This makes it extremely hard to get water out of the cockpit if you capsize. My first time out I flipped over and had to get the water out with a vacuum and towel. Small inconvenience. For the money this is a sturdy boat that won’t let you down. I use it on a river by me and I am able to paddle upstream with it. I’m extremely happy with my purchase.

Finally got out to use these, bought 2. They are great. Very comfortable. Little stuff like padding on sides for you knees. Plenty of straps in front for water bottle, phone, etc. nice cargo area. I love that the handles front and back are molded into boar frame. Love them. Would highly recommend. We are just casual paddlers, but ride was smooth and easy to control.

I love this kayak. It replaced a Pelican and it's definitely a significant upgrade. It's comfortable and tracks well. It is also quite a bit heavier than a Pelican, but not unmanageable (and I'm a 67-year-old woman). A couple of things worth noting: it has notches that enable you to lay the paddle across the cockpit, but I really wish it had a paddle holder that allows the paddle to rest along the length of the kayak. (An easy enough thing to add, however). It is sold as a 10-foot kayak, but it does not fit inside my Subaru Outback. My 10-foot Pelican did, and my 10-foot Yellowfin Vibe SOT does as well. I had no qualms about buying a heavier kayak because I thought I could easily get it inside the car rather than on top, but it's just a couple of inches too long. OTOH, a kayak roller makes it easy enough to load on top by myself.

Easy to use, awesome amount of storage space! I wasn’t sure how easy it would be to get to the storage spot while kayaking, but it is super easy to reach and easy to lock and unlock. The place for the phone is awesome! I can take video and pictures hands free and it holds the phone very well, it even has different positions for the phone. The seat is very comfortable and sturdy, some kayak seats are just like a piece of foam fabric, this one is so much better and adjustable. It has lots of room behind the seat, Just be careful of what you store behind the seat, it will get wet if a big wave splashes. The foot rests are easy to change positions even while kayaking. Seriously worth every penny and more.

This is my first kayak. I first want to say that it arrived well packed and in perfect condition. I am 5ft 1 and this has more than enough size for me at 135 pounds. The speed on calm and windy days works well. You will need a hand cart if moving on your own. I love the color and it easily transports on my Jeep Vertical holder. Highly recommend for your first Kayak. Keep in mind you will need to purchase your paddle separate.
