Intex Explorer K2 2-Person Inflatable Kayak with 2 Aluminum Oars and Pump and Challenger K1 1-Person Inflatable Kayak with 1 Oar, Hand Pump and Skeg

July 2022. Yellow canoe and blue/green kayak. Excellent choice! We have had hard kayaks and canoes before and they are a pain to transport and a pain to store when you're not using them, which is most of the time for many of us. These are "blow-up" so you think they will be cheesy, but they are absolutely perfect! They each have a rudder and a tear down kayaking paddle. They were super easy to maneuver in the lake we were in. At one point I was out alone in the canoe and my 15 y.o. son was in the kayak and it got super windy and I had to paddle like the Dickens to get back. I was able to get away pretty well, but we weren't far out and these could be taken by the wind if you're not careful, I would think. Easily blown up with the supplied high-output handpump, but we found using a stand-up paddleboard electric pump to plug into the truck was the ticket. We used the handpump down at the water to top up the boats with air in the mornings. Note that you have to fill it up with air in the order identified on the boat (each valve will be labeled #1, #2, etc). Super easy to deflate each and put back in the carrying bags. We fished in the canoe - 1 person and the other kept us from floating away. 2 thumbs up - I was impressed and I would buy again! Don't forget the lifejackets. Canoe had 2 adults, 5'6", 170# (167cm, 77kg) and 5'10", 230# (178cm, 104kg), and we each had enough room. You do have to tighten the seats as tight as they'll go for any back support. My 15 y.o. son used the kayak, he's 5'10" 170# (178cm, 77kg) and loved it. There is an art to getting into either boat, ha! Excellent boats.

This inflatable kayak is very well designed. The initial setup took about 5 minutes to assemble the oars and inflate the kayak. Finding the inflation port for the floor of the single-person kayak was a bit of an adventure. I would recommend locating this port, under the side skirts, and inflating that one first (I don't remember the order in the instructions).Once this kayak gets on the water it's easy to maneuver but it's nowhere near as good as a rigid kayak; there's simply too much drag on the bottom. I would dock half a star for that if I could. The kayaks are so enjoyable to use that I didn't mind that too much.Another possible negative is that the deflation and storage process is tediously slow. The first time we took the kayaks out this wasn't a big deal. But the second time it was raining. Being on the water in the rain was fun but 10 minutes seemed like an eternity puttering around in the cold rain.Overall, I would recommend as a great option if you're not an avid kayaker or as a backup to your regular kayaks when you have extra friends and family that you want to take with you.

My husband and I used the canoe one first with a total of 383 lbs and it floated just fine. It was easy to maneuver and had plenty of leg room for the both of us. It’s made very well and was easy to inflate. One suggestion would be to tighten the straps on the seats all the way for good support. It’s a great buy.

These are so awesome! They’re easy to haul (especially if you don’t have a truck to haul regular kayaks), easy to pump up, and they’re very easy to maneuver on the water. We love them! Very impressed with how durable they are. I was a little skeptical about how they’d hold up and worried about punctures from rocks but so far so good.

These are perfect for family fun on the lake. Easy to store and transport. Very durable..

I really like these! Went out with my 7yr old in the 2 person and my 16yr old uses the 1 person- both are easy to maneuver, blow up takes a minute but is easy enough (get a real pump), quality on both is well worth the money.

I only received the one person boat and not the two person kayak. Was supposed to be a Christmas present and now it’s useless. Went to return and it says I have to pay the postage to return this thing. Do not buy

You think these would be flimsy and cheap. They are not! I am a big guy 5’10” @ 265. My wife and I are enjoying these toys! We are having so much fun, please buy them and wnjiy them. Easy to inflate and pretty much wondering why I didn’t do it before now

Nice fun toys. We have enjoyed them. They are not built for white water or rocky places. Good for around shore and calm water. The inflation valves are very basic but do able. Seats could be better anchored.Decent value for this price.
