They're great.
If you're 350 lb.
Have strong legs to kick back to shore when a 1/2 mile per hour wind comes up.
They're big. Too big. Too bulky, to many moving parts, thin nylon shell and a pvc bladder(s).
Other than that I guess they're ok.

I "HAD" one and I guess TubeN2 still does. I agree with mojo. They are not for thin people. They ride VERY HIGH on the water and you do get blown all over the place, plus because you sit high, they are harder to get moving even with longer flippers.
I agree also there are two many parts. You have styro seat with two pontoons on each side. You inflate those easy enough. The you inflate a "U" shaped tube, back rest and all. NOW try to put the "U" on top of the pontoons via some killer velcro and straps. It is very hard to get it all aline
Plus the cross bar is a pain to clip.
They are light enough, but bulky as heck.
