"Light and easy to handle"
This canoe has been really easy for me to carry around. It’s light enough that I can load it onto my car without feeling like I’m risking my back or straining myself, which I really appreciate. It doesn’t feel awkward to move around either, so I’m a lot more comfortable handling it on my own.

"Solid canoe for the price, but instructions could be clearer"
I paid a fair price for this canoe and overall it feels solid. Shipping was okay, not the fastest, but it arrived in good shape. My only real complaint is that I was expecting clearer instructions, especially for getting everything set up the first time. Still, for the price, I’m happy with it

"Good capacity, just double-check the numbers"
I bought mine from Old Town Canoes & Kayaks because I needed something that could handle me, my wife, a cooler, and all the fishing gear we usually drag along. The listed weight capacity was one of the main reasons I picked it, and so far it seems accurate.
I’m giving it 4 stars only because I wish a few models had more real-world examples of what the load actually looks like. Still, I’m happy with it, it feels stable when we pack it the right way.

"Still going strong"
It’s still holding up really well. I kind of expected some wear by now, but nope, it’s been solid. I use it often too, so that’s a nice surprise. Anyway, so far I’m happy with it.

"Easy order, no issues"
Ordered a paddle and a couple small parts from oldtowncanoe last week. Smooth overall. They handled the order quickly, and the tracking email came through without me having to chase anyone down. Updates worked the whole way too, which was nice. Box arrived right when it was supposed to, everything packed properly. No drama. Just an easy order...

"So much room for my gear"
I’m impressed with how much this holds. I’ve got my cooler, dry bag, and fishing stuff in there, and it still doesn’t feel cramped or messy. Maybe it’s just me, but having everything fit neatly makes such a difference. Really happy with the storage...

"Accessories fit just right"
Well... I picked up a seat back and rod holder for my Old Town, and both went on super easy. No fussing or messing around, they fit just right.

"I was a little nervous to see what..."
I was a little nervous to see what shape it would be in after shipping, but I was relieved when it showed up. The box was clean, and the canoe didn’t have a single dent on it. Everything looked great right out of the packaging

"This seat feels comfy and fits my…"
This seat feels comfy and fits my kayak setup just fine, more or less. I was out for a few hours and my back didn’t really get sore, so I’m happy with it

"Packed well"
My canoe showed up in great shape. The wrapping was solid, and nothing was scratched or loose. It took a bit to unpack, but that’s way better than having it arrive damaged. I’m happy with it

"Really happy with the pedal drive"
I picked up an Old Town with the pedal drive i’ve been excited about it. At first I was a little unsure if it would feel awkward or heavy, but once I got it out on the water, that worry went away fast. It runs really smooth and doesn’t feel clunky, even after being out there for a few hours. I love being able to keep fishing without constantly grabbing the paddle, which makes the whole trip feel way more relaxing. Shipping was easy too, which was a relief, and everything arrived just like it should. Overall, I’m really happy with it and I’d definitely order from Old Town Canoes & Kayaks again...

"Good motor, but I wanted a little more speed"
The motor runs well overall. It’s got a solid push and stayed quiet for most of the day, which I liked. The battery held up fine too. I just kept finding myself wishing it would pick up speed a bit faster, because waiting on it got kind of annoying after a while.

I ordered from oldtowncanoe.com thinking it might take a bit, but it actually shipped really fast. I got the tracking info quickly, and the package ended up arriving earlier than the original estimate. Everything was packed well and the whole process was super easy. I’d definitely recommend them if you’re thinking about ordering.

"I checked out oldtowncanoe.com i was way more..."
I checked out oldtowncanoe.com i was way more impressed than I expected to be. The whole site looks super clean, the photos are really nice, and finding the different canoes and kayaks was almost suspiciously easy. Like, why can’t every website be this simple? The colors totally fit the outdoorsy vibe too. It’s not flashy or overdone, but somehow that makes it even better. I had zero frustration using it, which feels like a small miracle these days.

"Honestly stayed dry, which surprised me"
I took my Old Town out after we’d had some rain, and I was kind of expecting a soggy mess. But the drainage actually worked really well. Water didn’t just pool around my feet, so I stayed dry for most of the trip, which was awesome. I mean, it’s not like I was doing anything extreme, but still, I was impressed. Really happy with it overall.

"Easy checkout with just a tiny bit of room to improve"
I ordered from Old Town Canoes & Kayaks and overall it was a really smooth experience. I found what I was looking for quickly, and the cart worked the way it should without any annoying glitches.
Payment went through on the first try, which I always appreciate. The shipping options were clear enough, though I wouldn’t have minded a little more detail there, but it was still easy to review everything before placing the order.
The confirmation email came through right away too, so I wasn’t left wondering if the order actually went through. Simple and hassle-free, which is exactly what I was hoping for
