Customers like the quality of the kayak. For example, they mention it's sturdy, nicely constructed, and stable. The material is resistant to damage, and the inflatable side walls make it super stable. It has been used for five outings already, and has shown no visible signs of wear. The outer chambers keep it afloat just fine, and it paddles well.

Customers are happy with the performance of the kayak. They mention that it works well for what they need, tracks well, and does great in both situations. The Boston valves work well both inflating and deflating, and the pump works great on this. It handles very good and there were no issues with drift or loosing. It works fine on lakes, but it takes quite a bit more paddling than a hard yak.

Fun and useful inflatable canoe

Sevylor calls this a kayak, but kayaks traditionally have covered decks, fore and aft, with a cockpit that you sit in. That was before "sit-upon" kayaks became a thing. This Big Basin is an open boat that you sit or kneel in, which in my mind makes it a canoe, although without the upswept bow and stern of most canoes. Regardless of what you call it, I have found this to be a good size for paddling on reasonably calm water, with two people and a little bit of gear.I purchased mine primarily for shuttling between my anchored motorboat and shore, for camping, picnicking, beachcombing, or whatever. It works well for that purpose. The inflated boat is light enough for one person to hoist onto the top of my bigger boat's cabin, and to get it down and launched without a winch, a helper, or other drama. I can easily paddle it myself, or we can fit 1 or 2 more people in, as necessary. There isn't a lot of extra room, though. two people and a couple of day packs (and maybe fishing poles) pretty much fills the boat. I don't think that I'd want to try a multi-day camping trip for 2 in it, unless it was clear from the start that this would have to be an ultra-light adventure.The sides of this boat are fairly low to the water, so it isn't a particularly dry ride. My kayak paddles have drip guards, which helps some, but I usually plan to get wet when paddling this boat. Choppy seas can easily splash in. None of this should come as a surprise to experienced paddlers. I usually wear rain pants or waders when using the boat.A big advantage is that this boat can be deflated and stowed, or shipped as luggage to a distant destination. I used a similar Sevylor a few years ago on a moose hunt, and found it really useful for paddling back and forth across a lake by camp, and for floating out a quartered moose in one trip (two people walking the boat through the shallows, with a line on each end). I haven't had a chance to use this boat that way yet, but I'm certain that it would work just as well.I do recommend that you buy a good quality foot pump, and take it with you on whatever paddling adventure takes you away from civilization. The nylon cover fabric is tough, so punctures are likely to be rare, but you can always develop a leak from a loose valve.Let me know if you find my review helpful.

We love this! - so much that we bought two for our family of six! We are not tiny either (all adults and older teens). We all fit great in them. they are built well and fairly easy to inflate. They do not seem like they would get holes easily. We have used them at several different lakes and they have been dragged across the ground many times with no problems. The seats adjust very easily and fit my 6'2" husband as well as my youngest who was only 5'2". They steer quite well and have the skeg that attaches to the bottom which helps with steering and keeps it from "blowing sideways" in windy circumstances (we found that out when we left one at home and noticed a big difference with steering in the one without it). Another great part is that they can be put inside any car. It's heavy, but doable. Remember to buy paddles separately as it does not come with any. I recommend these from walmart.com:

My boyfriend and I are so happy with our purchase! This kayak is built well and it providing us with lots of memories. It inflates and deflates quickly and is very comfortable. You inflate the base and each side separately. I love the adjustable seats with inflatable bottom cushions. So many great features on this kayak to provide hours of fun and relaxation. We bought the 3 person version because of the higher weight load and so he can take his daughters out too. It's definitely a little crowded for 3 people, but there is plenty of space for 2 adults to spread out and enjoy. My only concern is the the buckles you use to adjust your seat are right on the side of the boat and sometimes dig into my legs and get uncomfortable, but otherwise we are so happy with this purchase! I also loved the monthly payment option that Amazon now offers!

5.0 out of 5 stars enjoying our water time
Reviewed in Canada on September 7, 2018

We purchased the Big Basin inflatable Kayak because of its wider beam. I have some mobility issues as balance problems and we didn't think I would be able to get in or out of a hard-shell kayak. We tried it on a local lake in very windy conditions, with white caps and 20-30 inch waves. The kayak handled well. At first I was nervous as i had never been our in such conditions but the kayak was very stable and I soon relaxed and enjoyed the exhilaration. The quality of the craft exceeded our expectations. The only negative was that the instructions could have been better. They did not tell us to put the rudder in before inflation. Also we did not realize the seat cushions inflated at first. This is actually a very important feature for both comfort and function because the un-inflated seats don't stay in position and you sit right down on the floor. Overall though I would recommend this product as we are very satisfied.

Overall, this is a good product. IT is stable, flows through water well. I would not really put the large adults in the kayak but 2 adults and one child sure, One adult and 2 kids, no problem. There one MAJOR issue with this product is with replacement parts. There are 3 panels to blow up. One on the floor, and one on each side. The side panels have what is called a Boston Valve and those are readily available anywhere for cheap in case you need a replacement. However the floor panel has what is called a MINI BOSTON VALVE. And those are nowhere to be found in North America. Essentially those are from the UK. The Kayak that was sent to me had a mini boston valve in the floor panel and therefore I am assuming the kayak was a UK based product. I have been unable to use my Kayak for the past several months because I cannot get my hands on a Mini Boston Valve anywhere in North America. So please be aware that if you purchase this product it may have a mini boston valve in the floor panel that you will have a very hard time replacing unless you get them shipped from the UK and significant costs.
