Good design
Great paddle float and the fold up Velcro case is great. I can easily attach to the bungee cords on my bow deck and have access as needed.

Better than the others-
I have had many inflatable paddle floats with my fleet of school sea kayaks over the past 30 years- They all seemed pretty similar, and they all suffered from UV, and some abrasion/wear and tear from living on the stern decks of the boats and in storage bins.. What makes the Solution Float different, and better, is the storage sack that it comes in. This makes for easy attachment to the kayak, protection, and easier storage/transport/inventory.

Bought a second one
Used on a self support kayak trip on the middle fork of salmon in Idaho. Ran it on the front deck but mounted so the access end was toward the bow. In reverse the angle makes it easy to read a waterproof map in the bungees and did not interfere with strokes. Great for extra jacket, lunch, and small dry box. No need to open the hatches for gear until camp.

Perfect deck organizer
No matter how much I cord I use to lash a dry bag to the deck for my snacks, extra layers, and camera, it never seems to stay put and I can never get into it easily. Sea To Summit solved the problem with a versatile, semi-rigid outer that's easy to rig and a dry bag sewn inside.

One of the Best Deck Bags Out There
I picked one of these up when I was not happy with another deck bag on the market. I was really impressed with how well it stayed in place. There are several straps to really lock it in place. The inside comes with a waterproof bag to help protect your gear. The inner bag is secured with a piece of velcro to help hold it in place. I ended up reselling my other deck bag and replaced it with this one. I have used it on a couple trips so far and I have been really impressed.

deck bag is handy, but some parts not sun friendly.
The deck bag itself was a great handy access that I LOVED, but my kayak was often in sun, both while being used or stored. I left the deck bag on because it was easier than removing it every single time. The gray web straps that hold the shock cord on top and the buckles on sides QUICKLY deteriorated from the sun. They literally FELL APART after a year or so. Now all that holds the deck bag on is two wide velcro straps on the bottom of the bag, but it does shift some if bumped and not as secure.
