I purchased this boat for out at our lake house for my four year old daughter.  It worked great for pulling her around near the beach.  It was easy to blow up and has been durable so far.  I have yet to get in it myself, but my daughter has jumped and played in it quite a bit, and it is still inflated.  I would say it's a great boat for a couple kids or one adult.  It is a great boat for the lake, but probably not made for white water rafting!
