In terms of speed, I was left at the back of the pack. But when it came time to stability, no waves were able to scare my friend and I. The two of us were able to stand inside at the same time with ease while another two friends nearly tipped 5 times with the same waves. Barely needed to counterbalance when fishing!

Assembly and disassembly is super easy. You only need to practice it twice and you will be a pro at it. After folding the joints a couple of times, it practically folds and unfolds itself.

Cleaning is barely a chore. Using the disassembled cover as the floor is genius as I can just dip it in the water and any dirt just lifts off.

It’s just like what you see in the videos on YouTube. No surprises.

We have been busy trying to hit every lake around to enjoy our canoe before winter hits. It took as a few tries but now have it down to 5 minutes to put it together. We are enjoying it ,we wanted something that could pack up in the back of a SUV. We do get a lot of curious folks asking questions about it.

We are avid campers and had been considering some kind of boat to explore different lakes around California. We live in an apartment in OC, CA, and we don't have the space to store a canoe, nor do we have means of transporting it, so we were looking to buy an inflatable boat. We're very happy to have found the Duo Canoe instead. It's perfect for our family of 3 and our dog.
The initial setup was not so easy considering the material is stiff, but we managed regardless. My wife and I took our 6 year old daughter and our large German Shepherd out on Hume Lake, and had so much fun. We are not experienced with canoes, but it seemed pretty easy to row. I was initially concerned that it wouldn't be stable, but we had no problems. It felt very stable and secure. Folding up the canoe was also a bit of a challenge the first time, but that is only because we didn't read the manual till last minute. On our next outing, setup and folding was pretty simple. It is fairly light to carry, and compact enough to fit in the trunk of most any car. We now just keep it in the trunk of our SUV in case we just feel like hitting any of the lakes we pass by while driving. We really wold recommend this to any family who enjoys the outdoors. This will just add to the fun of every outing.

This is a great canoe. My kids love it! I was able to carry it in my trunk and unfold in 5 mins. It's very stable. My kids and myself can stand on it and paddle at the same time. It was a great purchase!
