Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this for our 6 year old for Christmas and he loves it! It's the perfect size and he is easily able to paddle it without assistance. We get asked where we got it by people every time we are out on the water. We will be buying ones for our younger boys when they are older for sure!

Bear Lake Must Have! Fun for kids and the Dogs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased the youth kayak and took it up to Bear Lake during a family reunion. All of the kids had a great time and felt super comfortable because of how sturdy it was. All the kids wanted a try and even a few of the Pups. Thanks for selling an affordable, durable, Kayak.

This kayak is very functional for use on flat water. My grandchildren all got right on it and were able to paddle around the lake with no problems. It is stable and floats high in the water. It is small enough to throw into the back of the truck and light enough that it is easy to carry. A great starter kayak for children.

Very fun!!

I bought this kayak for my 8 year-old daughter this past summer and she loves it! She is able to easily maneuver it in the water and can keep up with me on my kayak. The first time on the water she had it all figured out, we don't leave home without it when we go to any waterway. It's very durable, easy to haul, and she is even able to row with a friend on with her also. I would definitely recommend this item to friend and family.

A Real Winner

We bought 2, for our sons, 8 and 6 years old. We thought, what the heck, at $99 each, free shipping to the store, comes with a seat and paddle, how could you go wrong. We are not disappointed. The boys love them and go out in our lagoon regularly. They are easy to maneuver, easy to pull up on the dock, just the right size for beginners. And they are very stable. After swimming both are able to climb back up on the kayak, no problem. We have other Lifetime products which all seem to be quality and stand up to normal use. I would conclude that after a month of use so far, these will continue to be trouble free and provide hours and hours of outdoor fun.

Awesome

Our 3 year old boy used one of these recently at a swimming hole we visit, and he was enamored! We did not even have to teach him how to maneuver it. He got out there and rowed all over the swimming hole. The boat is very stable and easy to steer - he never fell off. I bought him one for his 4th birthday, and he loves it. What a great price too!

Doesn't disappoint!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife wanted a kayak for the kids so we got a kayak for the kids! We use this at Colter bay in Wyoming. While all the adults paddle board this kids kayak. Very sturdy. Well built and can even hold a smaller adult. What a great deal for a kayak and paddle!

LifeTime 6' Wave Kayak

I am a grandparent with two five year old grandchildren. I generally don't give reviews good or bad. However, after reading several hundred reviews on line, and appreciating your staff response. I felt compelled to add my experience after recently buying two of your yellow kayaks at our local Walmart store. We are a kayak family, and I've owned thee top of the line kayaks for over 35 years. I've noticed our Walmart selling for the very first time the Blue and Yellow Yaks. My immediate overall assessment was price & quality, and you passed the test. My observation indicated no back rest nor hooks provided for both yaks. Until reading the reviews, I was not aware that option or the kayaks being made available on line. The back rest was not a show stopper after reading the number of issues folks were having. What I felt could improve your product without an additional price markup are the following items. Add two kayak handles at the swim platform area for little hands to hold, and pull them selves out of the water. Add a kayak seat pad for comfort only. Add a metal tie off support rings at the front for attaching a safety line until they mastered the art or getting towed. Add a drip guard to the provided paddle as no one enjoys water running to the armpit. I purchased rubber gulf balls to use as scupper plugs at Walmart. However in doing so I realized your scupper holes were not standard size, and therefor worked the bottom side hole to fit. I live near the ocean, and between slow moving rivers, I expect the modifications will be useful at both locations. Thank You, for the joy this product brings our little people. I gave this four stars based on one or two simple recommendations listed above.

I love this review! The handles on the platform has been discussed because of customer feedback and I think something will be added for that soon. I am going to send these suggestions to our engineers. Thank you so much for taking time to post. These are all great ideas.

Youth Kayak

I have an adult 12' sit on top fishing kayak and wanted to introduce my grandchildren (4 & 6) to the sport. Our first two launches were in a neighborhood pool and the shallow end of a sandy beach. The kayak proved to be stable and with a little assist (deeper), they were able to climb up from the side and from the rear swim platform. Their paddle technique will take some time to master at this age. In the meantime, they used it as a dive platform and had a blast with grandpa. The manufacturer (Lifetime) pricing is erratic. I've seen the blue as low as $104 (sold out) and the yellow at $115. All colors come with a color coordinated (right sized) paddle but only the yellow includes the seat back attachment. Individually, the seat back is over priced at $30. As a package premium of say $10, it is reasonable. I purchased the yellow with a seat back. The kayak was shipped to my local store at no charge. It arrived damage free within a week. I am pleased with my Walmart purchase and look forward to the next eight years before they will have to size upgrade.

Great Product & Free Shipping was Awesome!!!

I ordered one of these kayaks from a big sports retailer for my daughter's birthday. I placed the order weeks in advance, as I know these items are hard to get in the summer. After 2 weeks, I checked on the status of my order & it was "unclear" whether it would be available on time. While on hold, I ordered the kayak at Walmart.com - got FREE SHIPPING - and was done. A week later, my kayak arrived days before the birthday. Thank you Walmart. I now have 2 of these kayaks -- they are excellent for kids. Light weight = easy to carry, the back allows children to slide off & climb back on in the water, it comes with a paddle and it is hours & hours of fun. When my youngest kids are a bit older, I will be ordering more of these for them.
