Questions & Answers
Hmmm - Deflating does not require the use of a pump. Squeeze the air fill stem close to the tube to see if it works. The air flap should now be open, and the tube should begin to release air.
Not sure. On a trip to Hawaii, we took them to a lagoon. They're tough, so they might hold up in the snow.
Yes, I believe there are two floats per float.
200 lbs. These were fine for all adults to use.

Hello. Debra is my name, and I'm a floatie hoarder. For the past nine years, I've had a pool, and my garage is stuffed with various types of floaties: Everything is available, from the cheapest to the most expensive. These, on the other hand, are the ones I always return to. They're incredibly comfy and long-lasting. The headrest is one of my favorites. Although I must say that the headrest is almost always where these develop a hole right at the seam that cannot be securely patched. As a result, you're wasting perfectly good floaties because you can't get the stupid air out of the headrest, which is why I only gave them stars. br>br>If you want to be down in the water a little on a hot day, inflate them tight or a little looser. They are incredible. br>br>Several years ago, I believe they decided to cut corners on their manufacturing, and I ordered a bunch of these over the summer, and the netting seat on every single one of them tore out the second or third time they were used. However, they appear to have fixed that, and I haven't had that problem in the last few years. br>br>In hindsight, with 20/20 vision: I should have just ordered about 40 of these the first year I had my pool and saved the rest of the money I would have spent on other things.
I was terrified of tearing one on the shallow days, but they've crossed rocks far better than I could've imagined. I purchased an adapter that allows my air compressor to work with air mattress fittings. If I fill them to capacity at my shop and drive them for 30 to 45 minutes in the hot bed of my truck, they do appear to lose some air by the time I arrive at my destination, but this is most likely due to overpressure. Even after that loss, they continue to float for hours without losing any more weight. They can hold a lot of drinks and are very comfortable. We clipped the two together at a campsite and tied an eyelet off of a rope spanning the river, allowing us to sit for hours without causing any damage to the tubes. All of these things contributed to a fantastic summer!.
After a few months, the bottom of the center webbing peels away. I bought 12 River Run rafts, and every single one of them is missing the bottom webbing. Now is the time to consider a different brand! Intex rafts should be avoided at all costs.
These float tubes are absolutely fantastic! They're sturdy and large enough for a tall man to wear. It is used by my husband to clean the boat lift pads and bumpers, which must be done while in the water. The substantial mesh bottom is a nice feature because, while your bum will still get wet, water will not collect in the tube's bottom, and lake debris and/or "critters" will not be able to get inside.
I bought four of them. Two of the bubbles popped, while the other two didn't. I swam down a river with only a few small, gentle rapids. I contacted the seller and was told that I needed to send a photo of the popped tube, which I obviously did not bring home with me. If I were on a long float with any rapids, I would be hesitant to buy this.
It has a smaller valve for other inflating devices and can be inflated with shop vacuum.
The first time we used these, we rafted them down a mountain river in Utah. I've only got one thing to say: AWESOME! This is a fantastic deal for a lot of enjoyment! This winter, I'm planning on taking them snow tubing, but I'm not sure how they'll react in the snow.
Great tubes that are very comfortable. With the Boston Valves, they inflate quickly and deflate even faster. If you really have to, you can do it with your mouth, but I'd recommend investing in a compressor or some other type of inflation device. They hold their air and are extremely comfortable. br>br> These are essential if you're going on a 5-hour float.
