Great value for money. This was the most for the least money i found after an extensive search.
Great delivery service. The company kept me updated and delivered on my schedule so i could personally receive the kayak. Strongly recomend this kayak it is as good and well equipped with seats,etc as those selling in the $1500 to $2000 range. Would recommend buying separately a set of beack wheels for it, as kayaks this size require 2 people to carry it, and i mean 2 guys or a strong woman and a strong guy! However if u are keeping it in a dock one oerson should be able to manage. Hope this was helpful!
We ordered the Spitfire Emotion two seat, along with two Spitfire Emotion single seat sit-on-top kayaks. Shipping was done on a flat bed truck (like others have mentioned) and the kayaks came heavily damaged. I do not necessarily think this was the fault of Emotion, though they came in thick clear plastic bags that did not protect them as much as other packaging alternatives. Amazon (per usual) was pretty great on the phone, and we received a good amount of money back on them, and with a part of that we were able to buy a kayak specific melting tool and plastic strips to repair the deep scratches etc. My four star review has nothing to do with the shipping issues.
The kayak itself is great. It is heavy and one person cannot really carry this, but it does come with the rear skeg wheel that works well. It is at times difficult to balance on the skeg wheel and sometimes the kayak wants to lean to one side, which I try to avoid as it would scrape the side of the kayak. I think the kayaks track pretty well because of the skeg wheel which acts somewhat as a rear fin. The double tracks better than the single which is easier to maneuver certainly, but does drift more easily.
So far we've taken them out to several lakes and rivers in Oregon where we live, and have paddled as much as 6-8 miles in a day with my 8 year old in front. That includes some pretty windy days across open reservoirs. My 10 year old is able to paddle that distance in the single seat Spitfire as well. The boats (especially the tandem) are VERY stable, and have not even come close to tipping at all.
The rear seat did come loose as well. I was able to fix very easily with the same melting tool and extra plastic (I highly recommend getting one of these for the long term of your kayaking experience!)
I would absolutely buy this boat again, the storage, netting, etc. are great. I believe the skeg wheel will hold up, though I wish it was a bit more durable. It is all plastic, and so I worry about its longevity a bit... Otherwise, for the price, I don't think they can be beat.
PROS:
You get a lot for the money
Solid tracking
Skeg wheel makes it easier to maneuver on land - would be difficult otherwise
Accessories are great, as is the dry storage area
Easy to load (into a trailer) and clean
CONS:
Heavy, could be difficult for a single person to load and unload
Skeg wheel could be a bit more solid
Snaps for elastic rope could be more solidly installed

I have chose this product that said Made in USA on purpose to have a superb craftsmanship but I got a defected unit 3 weeks ago and a worst one today, I AM EXTREMLY DISAPPOINTED IN THE WAY THIS PRODUT IS
P.S the original information on this Kayak stated that the weight was 65lbs.
look at the label attached on the unit sates 90lbs. quite a difference!
