This past summer was my
This past summer was my first time using any type of kayak. I'm 54 years old, female and I had no trouble learning to set it up, transport it and feeling comfortable in the water. I watched a ton of videos to educate myself and to gain confidence. I can't tell you how many curious people asked me about my Oru Lake sport model! I'm a bit of an introvert but I found myself just going on and on about how great this kayak really is! It took me 2 years to finally take the leap and buy it. I have no regrets! I can't wait to get out on the water again in spring! Thank you, Oru for making such a high quality kayak that women can carry and set up on their own! One more activity I can do on my own or with a group. Best part-- it gets me out in God's beautiful nature!

Reasonable service given the issue.
Reasonable service given the issue. Bought thru Dicks Sporting Goods. I suspect their people aren't familiar with the product or they wouldn't have damaged the seat. Happy that you backed your product. We now have 2, inlet and beach.

Custoer Service has been challenging.
Custoer Service has been challenging. I finaly connected with Rebeca, wh was very helpful. It did take an entire month to finally get the new kayak. I deeply appreciated the undertanding and the f=gift of a free gel seat. I have now reviewed that item. I am hoping to safely enjoy kayaking for the foreseeable future. Getting out of the kaya is still challenging since the river where I love to paddle lacks a suitable, proper dock or launch ramp. . . and the sandy banks are very gooey and soft, making it very tricky to get out, stand and move the boat to shore. . . without dragging or hitting any stones/boulders.

See review I submitted about
See review I submitted about my oru inlet and its parts' failures the second and third time I went out, as well as poor customer service. Not so great so far. Also, I didn't say this in the review, but the floats seem kind of useless, however I haven't flipped over yet. Katie Morrison
