## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow is the only word that comes to mind.
*by E***D on May 24, 2018*

Skeptical at first - particularly about the ease of assembly, but it actually exceeded all expectations.First time assembly: following instructions, in my living room. Total time: 1 hour. BUT, you can easily grok the assembly steps (it's a logical sequence).Second time assembly: public launch, on grass. Total time 20 minutes.Take a bow :) Third time: 15, and that includes manually inflating the float bags :)Folding it all back? It was perplexing the first time, but again, after the first time, it's like riding a bicycle :) It takes less than 10 minutes to get it back into a shoulder carried box (obviously doesn't include cleaning which you can do later).On water? It's just like any other kayak you've paddled. Performs great - sleek, fast (though I'm not a pro by any measure, so grain of salt).Carrying an assembled kayak - like lugging it from wherever you assembled it to the water? It's about 30 lbs only, so yeah, it's easy and making it even more enjoyable.As stated, I'm a recreational kayaker, so nothing I do currently "pushes" its boundaries so I can't really assess it's relative sturdiness, and I don't go looking to...

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great concept but difficult to assemble and break down
*by B***N on May 14, 2020*

While this kayak design is really cool, lightweight and travels easily, it was not easy to assemble! With the video playing, I still struggled to put it together. That said, I've never been very mechanical so there's that! I'd say it took me just under 2 hours to assemble, and while I felt confident that would decrease with practice I determined it was more work than I wanted to do.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Design flaws? Pending testing
*by A***R on June 8, 2022*

Contacted Oru and was notified that the multiple rips in the body was normal for a new kayak. Per Oru this was a product received as new and fold frays were cosmetic. Will test and update if continue to see decay on product . Was told that will not impact kayak.This is Roberto speaking from Oru Kayak.I can assure you that your kayak is not defective - these score marks from your pictures do appear to be a bit rough on the finished product, but they are completely normal. This cosmetic appearance is something we are working on addressing with our Design Team.At this time, even if we send you a replacement it would still have the same appearance as the one you have, all our boats coming off the production line look like this, so we can assure you that you do have the correct, finished product.That being said, I completely understand your concern and we have a record of your email in case any further issues develop. These cuts will not affect the performance of the product whatsoever.Let me know if you have any questions or concerns I can help with!Roberto Valdez
