[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The durability of this product matches all Lifetime products! It holds up to my kids dragging it around and playing on it. They love the ease of the sit on top design and can paddle easily. We've really been happy with the youth kayak! I look forward to adding some adult kayaks to the collection some day too!

Purchased this as a gift for a grandson he was extremely excited. The prior year we purchased this same Kayak for his big sister "she has really enjoyed it". The grandson has been wanting one ever since. "It was the perfect gift". "We feel the pricing is also very reasonable." If you have people in your circle who enjoy this type of water activity" I recommend it". The weight rating is not to exceed 130 lb. keep that in mind when purchasing

We use these in the pool as well as the lake. The kids love to play "King of the Kayak". One person is king and the others try to get the king off and then scramble up to be the new king. My son also likes to just lay on it while it floats in the pool and he listens to his tunes.

These kayaks are perfect for kids. They are sturdy and can be used in multiple ways. My four year old likes to use half the paddle like you would for a canoe. My seven year old learned to use the full paddle quickly and also has used it like a paddle board. We also were able to connect them to larger kayaks and tow them around the lake for a while. Both kids have already used them several times at the beach for at least an hour before they were ready to stop. These are a great purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the wave a few years ago. The kids and their cousins spend hours on end paddling around and enjoying different lakes and ponds. I love that they are outside and getting exercise as well. Thank you for making such great products that last.

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!

My kids love this kayak. It’s a nice option for my 6 and 9 year old. They are able to kayak well on their own. It’s pretty light weight too make it easy to get in and out of the water. My 9 year old can lift it by himself. I highly recommend getting it.

I bought three of the 6’ youth kayaks in different colors for my grandchildren. I thought all the colors looked very nice, but green was my favorite. I guess that’s why it was the most expensive. Yhey’re actually good quality and the kids have been enjoying them. The 9 and 10 year olds were able to stand up and paddle them (with an occasional tumble).

I bought this kayak on sale for just over $80 specifically for my two granddaughters, aged 8 and 13. The kayak fit them both well although the older one might grow out of it my next summer. When it came time to try it our on flat, calm water, both of them took right off and had the hang of paddling in no time. Neither one had any prior experience kayaking. I was very impressed by how well the kayak tracked with minimum effort. The older granddaughter even took down some small rapids. Great buy and a lot of fun. Be aware the shipping took close to 2 weeks despite what you are told by the tracking info.

Just add a life vest. Bought one each for my 8 and 6 year old and they've had no trouble paddling around both a quiet pond and a calm ocean inlet. Max weight 130 lbs. Lightweight but sturdy and wide. Slightly awkward to carry for anything more than a few feet, so we are considering getting travel wheels.
