As a novice paddler I love the stability of my Fusion! I pushed off a log and tipped it slightly which made my kayak fill with water but it didn't flip. I also went down a clsss II backwards and out of my seat (don't ask, haha) and made it safely through. My husband said it was just luck but I bet I would have fallen out in a tippier kayak! That was my first trip and I've learned a lot since then but I still like the stable ride and large cockpit for easy access. I didn't give it 5 stars because I'd like a paddle keeper and a comfier seat for long floats. It didn't have a sealed bulkhead so we used empty two liter bottles and sprayed foam insulation to keep it from sinking if waterlogged. I'm Pretty sad that Dick's Sporting Goods has stopped carrying it, as it costs way too much on other sites for the value. I need an extra kayak but I don't want to pay more than I feel it's worth. I paid around $300 for mine and I've really enjoyed it.
