Review on πŸ„ Hydro-Force Oceana Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board by Bestway by Derrick Shaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

2 stars so far - Actual valve leaks

Board arrived this morning - on time. All blower valve leaks user reviews are correct - you can't get anywhere close to 12 pounds. I was able to inflate it to 6 pounds after inflating it very hard and then disconnect it immediately. Bad news about the valve itself. The outer edge of the circuit board's gray flap (right where it meets the white plastic) is constantly leaking. You are given a wrench to tighten, but that doesn't stop the leak. Just slow it down. I tested it with soapy water and can see bubbles forming. No adjustment will stop him. I'll let it sit overnight to see how much air comes in over time. I have contacted the seller and at the moment I cannot recommend this product.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model
