Great kayaks!

Had been thinking about getting a kayak for some time; started researching them. I’m 63, and wanted something I could carry by myself, yet be stable in the water, and handle well. I am so glad I found these! They fit my needs in every way! Delivery was fast. Water was super cold when I first tried it, so was a little scared, but was able to get on it from the dock easily. I even put my dog on it with me for, for 1 1/2 hour ride! My friend’s 2 girls, 11 and 13, were able to handle them as well! I may have to get more as I can see people wanting to use these. Don’t hesitate to buy these, start the fun right away!!!

Very good if you need a compact kayak

These are great if you want a compact, easy to transport kayak. They definitely don't handle/track as well as a larger one. Good value

Great Entry-Level Kayak!

I bought two of these kayaks about 4 years ago (when they were about half this price). They are very durable and fairly lightweight. The little bit you loose in maneuverability with the shorter length, you more than make up for in ease of transporting. I am a 50 year old woman and can carry one from the car to the water. The shorter length allows me to put two INSIDE my Yukon XL--no need for straps, etc. I have also strapped them to the top of my truck on vacations and they travel well there also. They are quite stable in the water. They can be tipped over but you have to want to. My 2nd and 3rd grade nieces paddled around in choppy water for a couple hours today and are able to handle them. My teenage son and I have taken them out several times and we've loaned them to friends. I prefer the sit-on-top style. The seats/ seatbacks could use a little cushion if you were going to be in them for hours but it is a great entry-level kayak for beginners and those that just want to paddle around.

Great kayaks!

We used them on a lake. They work great. I'm 190 lbs and I paddled with my 7 year old daughter in front of me. We were snug, but it worked. My wife paddled with my 10 year old son w/ no problem.

Lots of fun and easy to transport!

Got this with another bigger emotion kayak from lifetime as an anniversary gift. I really have love how easy it is to steer and use. It's light enough that I can pack it and load it on the car. It is really stable ( held two laughing 8 year olds without tipping). It has held up really well and is almost a year old and the color is still bright (no sun fading) and the back rest looks new. I would definitely recommend getting one of these!

Awesome Kayak for a beginner, child, or anyone!

Great kayak, easy to paddle, VERY stable. I can stand up on this kayak, which should say something about the stability of it. I chose this kayak because I saw the reviews about its stability and the fact that it's pretty easy to get back on even in the water. I am a very clumsy and unbalanced person so this kayak is perfect for me. The paddle and backrest came with it which was a huge plus. For some reason the scupper plugs were not included......I like the scupper plugs because the water will splash through the drain holes without them, although it will not sink the kayak, it will allow you to get wet. The only thing I do not like about this kayak is that it is kind of slow. That doesn't matter if you are just wanting to cruise around though. It is also very easy to control. A child could easily take this kayak for a ride. Overall this is a very good kayak. I would definitly recommend!

Great Light Weight Kayak

Over Thanksgiving, I purchased 5 kayaks from another store.....actually, two different stores! On the way home, I passed the Lifetime store and saw they were a lot cheaper. I went into the store and purchased 5 of your kayaks.......then spent another hour returning the first ones I bought. We actually put two different kayaks in the pool and tried them out. The Lotus handles extremely well and the price was great. Thanks Lifetime!
