Intex Excursion Pro Inflatable Kayak Set w/Oars & Pump, 2-Pack, Red

I purchased these inflatable kayaks for our glamping vacation in Maine. They were stable, sturdy and comfortable to handle on the lake. Inflation took a few tries with the first kayak, as we brought a hand held electric pump with us. The spring loaded air fill had to be moved to deflate position, then quickly moved to inflate position when chamber was blown up. After mastering it, second kayak took no time at all to inflate. Deflation was quick and easy. If you use the hand pump that comes with the kayaks, it will take a s bit longer to inflate, if you do not have access to electricity, and you would not have to move the valve, just insert the pump hose and pump it up, the hand pumps will do the job. Deflation was quick and easy, turn the spring loaded fill valve 1/4 turn to right and let the air out. Folding the kayaks back to how they were packaged, so we could get them comfortably in their carrying bags took a little practice on the first one, then the second one was a breeze. One of the kayaks was missing one fishing pole end cap that goes into the fishing pole holder in the boat. I contacted VM Express customer service and they will be sending me the missing part. I would highly recommend this product to friends and family.
