SuspenzUniversal Portable Kayak Boat Stand (22-1818)

I'm very satisfied with the stands and they are perfect for my purpose. I store my kayak in my garage and wanted some stands to set it on to get it off the concrete floor.

Je l’utilise pour entreposer mon kayak très pratique.

I should have read more carefully - overpriced and it only keeps your kayak 18" off the ground. I got it to work on my kayak and doing anything underneath is not really an option with this setup. I used to use cheap fold-up set of sawhorses for this type of work and will be going back to that - also the height of that set-up makes for less reaching and bending over when working on the top-side as well - the kayak usually just rocks around some but still better. 3 stars because its my fault I didnt read all the specs - it does what it says it does - but only real use I could see would be to store your kayak up off the floor. If you need to work on it get something else. Also $ for what you get is ridiculous - this is like $2 in materials.

I was concerned that these slings might be too small for my boat, an Alden 18 foot ocean rowing shell. I am accustomed to large slings at the boathouse where I row narrow racing shells, and those boats fit on the cloth part, in a little "valley." My ocean shell is wider, hence my concern with the small slings. However, the boat is very stable if I move the slings more toward the center (away from the ends) of the boat, and I rest the boat on the rubber grippy areas and not the cloth sling portion.I want to thank other reviewers who included photos of ther personal watercraft on the slings. The photos sold me, and I am very happy with the nice, light, very portable slings. The mesh storage bag could be an inch or two wider as I can barely fit the slings back in it, which would be my only criticism and a small one at that. One reviewer said he bought restaurant tray supports for 1/3 the price. Well, they are much taller, and the sling (cloth) portion is taut. I was concerned that my boat would roll off and being so high, be damaged. So those are points to consider if you want to go that route. My boat is very stable resting on the rubbery grippy portions of these slings.Edit: I see people complaining that these slings are too low for working on a boat. The dimensions are given!! You need to read and think before you order something. These people probably have a tape measure at home, so my suggestion is read the description of the item and think about how you will use it. Do not fault an item for being what it is if you order the wrong thing for your purpose, or do not read. Sheesh. It also sounds like some people did not look at the photos, and have the very bow and stern of their boar on the cloth instead of the rubber grippy sections. Also not the fault of the sling.

Really like these stands. Easy to move to different locations and easy to place kayak on to keep it off the ground. Lightweight and portable but seem to be quite sturdy. Note it is low, so if you want to work on your yak you may need to place them on something to give them more height or opt to buy their taller ones. But perfect for what I was searching for since you don’t have to lift the kayak too high.
