SPAREHAND Fishing Kayak Storage Rack – DM-117 Lowered Height Version Kayak Holder with 410 Lbs Weight Capacity – Portable Demo Rack for Kayaks & Canoes – Ideal for Garage & Store Display, Heather Gray

Exactly as advertised and supports a very large 14ft Hobie Kayak

Works well as a two-piece heavy-duty mobile tech stand for in my garage. This is overkill for just a regular kayak unless you plan to get into it while it is on the stand. I was weary of their one-piece tube system tech stand with wheels since it had a much lower weight rating, but this seems sturdy enough for my 350lb+ 12.8ft Milha Lite Skiff. Makes it easy to get my skiff out the back of my truck and into the garage.If you want to add wheels, the holes are M12-1.75 with a 1-inch stem. If you want this to be mobile, the two-part design wobbles, A LOT. For added stability, there is a 1/4 diameter bolt hole at the very bottom of each leg T-piece. If you put a 2-inch partially threaded bolt there, a notch in the top U bend pole will interface with it and somewhat help control the wobble while still being toolless to disassemble. They should have pre-installed that bolt in my opinion, clearly it was designed to work this way. Since I do not plan to take this apart often, I drilled additional holes and put more bolts in and now the feet are steady as a rock. Foam is alright quality, and the straps are a nice touch.For the price and considering safety since in the marketing they have people inside kayaks while on this stand, they should have fully welded the foot braces instead of tack welding it. However so far, it seems super good enough. Called the support phone number to have two questions answered and they were quick to answer the phone, but not really knowledgeable about the product. Seems to be a small mom and pop business, but hey at least I reached someone.

These are really good. Great for indoor or outdoor use and good for heavy and wide kayaks. Most important part for me, I can get my kayak on the stands by myself. No need for an extra set of hands. I will say, they are slightly overpriced in my opinion. Almost 200 dollars for two steel stands. I think realistically it’s worth anywhere from 100 on the low end to maybe 125-140 on the high end. In my opinion. But otherwise they are very good and I highly recommend these for heavy boats.
