Pretty easy to blow up and stores easily. Very convenient for transport. You wouldn't want to spend a day in it, but for short term use it's great. Review: Nice Kayak!! - Yesterday we took out our Kayaks ( we got 2) for the first time. What a blast! They pump up fast, not hard at all. Easy to get into, I have a small dog to get into it as well, easy. The seat can be adjusted with how ever much air you want. I like mine full as I am short so it brings me up higher. Others said they tend to feel like they lean to one side or the other. Mine felt like to the left, my husbands felt like to the right. Once you adjust yourself it works fine and you don't feel it anymore. I found a trick to make it feel less confining around my legs by taking a 10 inch piece of pool noodle and pushing it into the sides just in front of the seat buckle to rise up the sides a bit. Gave it more room and my husband said his legs and feet had more room. I felt very secure and safe in it. It was easy to unfold and refold. I do suggest you pay attention to how its folded when you open it. It should be folded up the same way so when you put it back in the bag it fits correctly and everything goes back in easy. Take it out and inflate it in your home and leave it for a day or two. Sit in it and get a feel for it. Adjust the amount of air in the seat to how you might like it. Do this before you get it out on the water, makes it more fun. We really like them and will be using them a lot. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004Y3B8GO | | Best Sellers Rank | #519,696 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #205 in Kayaks | | Brand Name | Intex | | Color | blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (179) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00078257683055 | | Item Weight | 27.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Intex | | Material Type | Inflatable | | Seating Capacity | 1 | | Style Name | Classic | | UPC | 078257683055 | | Weight Capacity Maximum | 220 Pounds | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intex - **Color:** blue - **Item Weight:** 27.2 Pounds - **Material:** Inflatable - **Style:** Classic ## Images ![Intex Challenger K1 Kayak Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71o5Ui4tpxL.jpg) ![Intex Challenger K1 Kayak Kit - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61iWqOB7x0L.jpg) ![Intex Challenger K1 Kayak Kit - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/613OeRxUPgL.jpg) ![Intex Challenger K1 Kayak Kit - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SEzXfjlQL.jpg) ![Intex Challenger K1 Kayak Kit - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nMjUC0TTL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this have a rudder?** A: It has a "skeg" which is a small plastic underwater fin, but unlike a rudder you can't point it different directions to steer. It simply helps keep the kayak pointed straight, minimizing some of the disadvantages you'd normally see with such a short kayak. **Q: How do you get the air out of the seat? The plug is in a hole and I can’t get it out? Is there some tool to pull it out?** A: You have to squeeze the sides of the valve while pressing on the seat. If you don't squeeze the value it won't really allow air to flow out. **Q: Is this model rigid or soft like an inner tube?** A: It's firmer than an inner tube but a little bit softer than, say a volleyball. Definitely not as rigid as an inflatable SUP (those are way higher PSI and much more work to inflate!). The vinyl material feels much more durable than your usual floating pool raft, though. **Q: How is this different from the intex challenger kayak series?** A: The counterbalance weight distribution of this particular model is better for the user.

Set up was a breeze. the only issue we had was that one of the kayaks was over inflated and doesn't sit evenly in the water. Comes with a measuring device to prevent over inflation but it is very small and on a clear strip of plastic so it is easy to miss. The kayaks are easy to maneuver and get into and out of the water. They fold up and store in their own carrying bag. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/215200652-intex-challenger-k1-kayak-kit](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/215200652-intex-challenger-k1-kayak-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
