My son is 8, and saved up his birthday money to buy this kayak. He and his friends loved it. We live near a bay, and at high tide, he paddled his friends out to the floating platform, and then near the beach, played capsize games. Great choice for a kid!

My daughter (who is also an adult) and I purchased these kayaks in order to have something we could pick up and load ourselves and just go! We use them in both small lakes and ponds. Impressed with this item as they are sturdy, stable, light weight, and easy to maneuver! We are both petite and under the 130 maximum pound requirement. We get compliments on them whenever we take them out! Would recommend.

This sit on kayak was very popular with my 7 year old. The yellow version has a clip on back strap for comfort. Our 7 year old couldn't reach the foot rests so plenty of room to grow. Ok for adult to 130 lb. Our 4 year didn't have the coordination, but was happy to be towed. Their complaint was bottom got wet due to flow holes. Other than that it did not take on water. Given short length the line of travel shifts left with right stroke and right with left strok. This didn't trouble them and it zipped along. Light weight can be lifted by grandma. Stackable.

I purchased this for my 6 year olds birthday, and it is AWESOME. We take the kayaks on a river, which is harder to maintain than a lake setting, and she did great. it tracks very well for being so wide & flat. The locations for the feet being at several lengths is great.This doesnt come with the seat attachment, and I don't think it even needs it, unless maybe for an older child. The only thing I might add is another carry handle for the back of it, so two people can carry it, unless you are dragging it, it is akward to carry since there is not much to grab onto.

Awesome kayaks for kids. Easy for them to get on and off of it even in the water. We attached the kids kayaks by rope to ours and towed them behind so they can learn to paddle (4 year old and 6 year old). They love them, and should last for a long time as the weight limit is up to 130lbs.

Great kayak for my 10 year old & 6 year old! We were on the st. Lawerence river for a week & the kids used it every day. I am a little over the weight limit & was able to use it myself! Thinking of getting another one next year so both kids can use at same time!

During my 8 year-old's first trip on the water the boat began leaning and was difficult to control so we took it back to shore and found it was 1/2 full of water! It was shipped to my house only in clear plastic that was not even sealed! Who ships like this???? I had to spend another $20 sealing the pencil eraser size hole after draining it for days! Decent boat but don't buy online. The boat is a nice size, even for adult, but a little too pliable in the sun.

This has been a great kayak for introducing our kids to paddling on the open waters on their own. It is very stable, lightweight, and easy for them to maneuver. They absolutely love them! The price is very affordable as well. I would highly recommend this kayak. It will help create wonderful memories and it is a great way to spend time with your family!

The kayak was fine once it finally arrived Extremely un happy about the terribly long time for shipping (15 days) and horrible inaccurate shipping tracking. Every day for several days said it was being delivered and was not. I'm very disappointed!!!!!

We have 2 kayaks that we purchased from Lifetime Products. We live in a Harbour and use our kayaks year round. During the summer, the kids will use them everyday for hours. They are extremely well made and durable. The kids recently lost one of the paddles. We contacted Lifetime Customer Service to purchase a replacement. Brenna contacted us right away and offered to send out a new one at no charge. I can't remember the last time I received this level of customer service. We will be life long customers. Highly recommended Lifetime Products.
