Bought this and a Pacer for my boys' birthdays. Tried them out for the first time today. Good times! The Kokanee is quite stable. It's a little heavy and bulky on land, but handled easily enough by two people. Handles well in the water. I purchased padded seat bottoms, as I was told a long trip would be uncomfortable without them. Only complaint I can possible come up with is it was missing a couple small parts.

I was extremely impressed with the parts customer service. I called due to losing a couple of my seat strap clips. I spent so much time looking everywhere online for it without any luck. I finally ended up calling their parts department (which I should have done first). They told me they would send me the parts free of charge and that I did not need to pay any shipping. Wow! I am extremely impressed with their customer service and I will continue purchasing their quality products. Thanks Lifetime!

Great kayak from Lifetime that doesn't break the bank. My wife and daughter both have enough room to fish out of it at the same time. And yes, you can stand up in it with ease. I gave it 4 stars because it needs more handles. Difficult to get to the water with only one person.

Great kayak, i like that the seats are taller than most kayak seats and give lower and mid back support. Cant beat the price, got on sale for $275. Vs. Green one for $385. The two water tight storage are great, no bag so you can store larger items. The kayak body is solid and no cracks along edges like other kayaks seem to have. Added a handle to the back for easier lifting. I would recommend this kayak.

We've had this kayak for a few years and have really had some great times in salt and fresh water. Plenty of room for 3 plus our dog. I recently misplaced a screw-on cap for the internal storage area and sent a note to customer service asking for the best way to order that replacement part. Before I knew it, they replied and said the part was on the way to me, no charge! Excellent customer service. I am sure there is no guarantee that all parts will be handled the same, but this was a great example of service!

This is our first tandem kayak and our first sit on kayak. Overall I am very pleased with it. I found it easy to paddle, easy to navigate and it is very stable in the water. I use it mainly with me (250+ lbs and my three year old). We had an incident with it while getting on it on a platform in a fast moving river and the kayak didn't overturn when we did fall out (user error not kayak fault). My three year old likes to hang over the side and drag his arms in the water and I have no issues with it being tipsy or unstable. I would buy again at the clearance price that I purchased it all.

We bought this kayak because we like the feature of two people being able to use it at once. The kids love taking it to the lake and paddling around for hours. We have thought about getting another kayak or even a paddle board from lifetime. Love their products and recommend them all the time.

I bought this kayak about a year ago and I love every piece of it. Kayak is built strong, I was able to fit my two kids (5 and 7 Years old) my wife and myself comfortably, kayak is very stable even with three adults in it. You will have hours of fun and entertainment with this Kayak without spending too much money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is our first kayak and we could not be more happy with it. The width makes it very stable in the water. Plenty of room for 2 plus gear. If I had to mention anything negative it would be that it could use a better "handle" in the back, the moulded grip is not user friendly and it is a little heavy for 1 person.

I would give it a 5 stars, but the lack of a handle in the back to carry it was the only negative point. However, I added one myself and now two people can easily transport it. I bought a handle online and use rivets to secure. Stainless steel screws would work too. Make sure to add “goop sealant if you choose to add a handle. The kayak is not the fastest, but extremely stable. The seats are actually pretty comfortable, however if we went on it for an extended period of time, I’d get a foam seat like the one we use in bleachers. I found the kayak too large to secure safely on truck roof with J rack type. I have purchased the Thule 881 system to transport it sitting flat.
