Unfortunately, it had a tear on the bottom during the first use.

I got it for its super light weight, with the expectations that it can't take tough situations, but should be fine for calm water like small galcier lakes, so I can take it on backcountry camping trips.

I carefully chose the place to launch( no branches, no rocks), picked out tiny gravels that fell into it during assembling. Though, when I sit in it in shallow water, I fell the bottomed of the boat touched the bottom of the lake. No sharp objects there cause I can see it and felt it through the boat. I paddled to deeper water immediately, but this touch still made a tear on the boat.

I thought about giving it 2 stars, but eventually decided to give it 3 stars, because it till floated after the bottom became flat, so I made it back safely, and it is cheap. I might in bad luck as well cause I read reviews in which people took it to lakes even slow rivers or calm shore before. I didn't expect it has so little abrasion.

I think it is sufficient as a pool floater, but too risky to take it outdoor, even for calm lakes.
