    Great product, and great customer support. They are very responsive and knowledgeable so any transactions with them are quick and efficient! My wife and I have had our ***'s for a few years and they are almost "bullet-proof"!

    I purchased the PK11 model from an Amazon seller in August 2024, and received my new Kayak in September 2024. The Kayak I received was not the PK11, but rather a new design that replaced the PK11 called the Pro 10.5, which retails at over $100 more and it has more features than the older model PK11 included more storage space, installed anchor trolley, and I believe it is wider and more stable. I couldn't be more pleased. I see many complaints about ***'s shipping but they, like many companies use freight shippers to reduce the costs to customers, who get free shipping btw, and so once the product is picked up to be delivered by the ************* has no control of how long it takes for delivery, so much of the negative comments are not BKC's fault. The freighter who delivered my Kayak had at least 20 more kayaks on the truck to be delivered to who knows where. Did I mention the shipping was free and a few days earlier than expected, but had it been a few days later,,,,,,,, who cares. It's a great kayak. Yes it's actually manufactured in *****, like almost everything I own, as well as most things others own. The kayak has a 5 year hull warranty, better than most.

    DO NOT GET THIS COMPANY YOUR MONEY ! I have been trying to reach anyone in the customer service department about and order i placed over 6 months ago not being fulfilled and haven't been in contact or been reached out to after leaving email after email and trying to call is an absolute joke. is this company even real? they are just fine taking your money but fulfilling an order and actually getting you the product? i am yet to see it. maybe i will receive it one day? i highly doubt it.

    The company has engaged in false and misleading shipping practices, promising delivery dates they cant meet. I purchased a kayak from this company on 7/23/24 because the color and model on the website show In stock: Delivery within 7-14 business days. They have failed to meet this claim and have repeatedly said they are looking for a driver. Example below: (BKC)Aug 13, 2024, 9:56AM EDT untill we find a driver unfortunately I don't have a timeline Catch Your Next Adventure!

    Shipping is not free and had to drive over two hours one way and have a four hour time window to wait. You need to basically live near a major city to have it delivered to your house. Ordered two kayaks and wasnt able to use them til almost 3 months later even though the website said they were in stock. One of the kayaks came with a cheaper set of paddles and seats were missing. A set of seats were sent out later and one of them was bent. Was told another seat would be expedited and finally shipped 10 days later, got a seat and it doesnt even match the other seats. Dont bother trying to call them because they wont answer. Worst experience buying anything online. And dont bother trying to leave a bad review on their website since they wont let you post it. Thats the only reason they have good reviews only on their website.

    Well my kayak was delivered. I ordered the 14 foot with trolling motor. Received it today at 11am. No trolling motor at all. Sent few emails and left number on voicemail. Waiting to see what happened. Would like it shipped right away or credit my account.
