This review is from: 47" River Rat Inflatable Flaoting Water Tube By Intex (Toy)
Taking this on the river, I didn't have much faith in its ability to hold up to a real beating. The thickness of the vinyl plastic doesn't seem much more than any typical pool toy, but it did take four hours on the river running rapids and hitting rocks like a trouper. The two chambers are reassurance that it won't go completely flat even if it does get a hole somehow.
The only complaint is the inner seam is big enough to be irritating. If the tube is covered with a towel or sheet it's not that bad, but it could have been smoother.

As pleased as I can be with the float, all things considered. Size is perfect for me (5'10", 225 lbs), and would definitely support someone bigger, and the inner chamber that stays filled if the large chamber springs a leak is fantastic, but I wish river rat would realize that, being almost explicitly used in the sun, black was a terribly moronic choice of color. Either drape a sheet/towel over the tube as you sit on it, be prepared to flip it every 3-7 minutes so you can lounge on a cool side, or risk intense burns as your skin comes into contact with the vinyl.
Really, really, really stupid color scheme, but otherwise a great buy.

I got this River Rat for my brother and his family for Christmas. This item caught our eye because they would be able to use it for sledding type activities, as well as on the river in the summer. They haven't used it on the river yet, but it worked great in the snow! They love it and can't wait to use it more!
