Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Convertible 2 Person Kayak with Pump - Red/Gray

My husband and I live on a pond. We already own a single and a double kayak, but I wanted to buy this one because those are not inflatable and they are kind of heavy for me to lift. This one was sturdy and still a bit heavy, but not flimsy. We can inflate it and I can go kayaking on my own, which I love, or we can kayak together. We both fit very comfortably and don't feel there is any risk of capsizing. It feels quite stable in the water and now, we can travel to other ponds and lakes and not have to worry about how to transport or carry our other kayaks. No issues with trackability, the kayak steers well and doesn't veer off in all directions. Highly recommend. I will say that while the included pump works REALLY well inflating the kayak quickly, it is hard on the back. I wish they had designed it with more height, (and I'm only 5'2", so I can't imagine how tough it is for a tall person.) I actually purchased a separate foot pump just to give my back a break. The foot pump takes much longer to inflate though.

Had this on my Wish List for over a year and the price dropped (model discontinued) to over half of its original listing price, so glad I waited. Very well built, tracks well, easy to air up and stores well in the included bag.

It was a little hard to fold it back up but this kayak is absolutely awesome. My son and I felt secure in it and didn’t wobble. We were comfortable and it glides really nice

My daughter lives in the Hudson River valley. It was a present she specifically asked for for a double holiday. She loves it. Fits in her car. It’s very heavy, so Be prepared.

Love Love Love this Kayak, My only recommendation is to purchase the upgraded floor for extra stability.

The kayak deflates after about an hour in the water, and the seats tend to lean back over time.

Kayak was very stable and easily to inflate. Did not have any issues with the kayak “folding” when my wife and I were paddling around. Also found using the pump to suck the air back out made it possible to fold back up small enough to fit back in the bag. Reason for only 4 stars is the pump hose is weak and split on the second use. Tried to contact seller but Amazon customer service assistant is about useless. Would like to know how to replace hose with a better one.

Don’t buy it only wants to be pumped by hand by the time u finish your arms are so tired and it doesn’t hold air took it out for like two hours came back and it looked like it lost air way too expensive for the disappointment of it
