bestway Hydro Force

Anyone had one of these. Bestway Hydro Force Mirovia Pro
£500 from Costco. Half the price of what I was going to get. Cant find a bad review. I wanted an air deck, but for half the money I will manage.
Everyone says, they are all made in the same factories n China. Warranty is only 1 year, Excel 5 years
I dont want to go cheap on my first boat and end up with trash but if there isnt much difference ?

Look up the thread title 'Costco SIB'
looks pretty good to me..... if you were to use as a 24/7/365 days a year tender in all weather you may not get 5 years out of it. But for holidays and weekends, cleaned and packed up inbetween ...... no reason why it should last.
