Unlike the usual hype and marketing jargon, theirs was refreshingly clear and fact-based -- exactly what I needed to make an informed decision. I called them to explain my specific needs and was impressed by their no-pressure, honest approach. They walked me through the real pros and cons of each unit without any sales tactics. I was shocked to discover that one of the "discounted" units I was considering from another online store was actually priced several hundred dollars above retail! I purchased the M600, and it arrived quickly via UPS from across the country. About two weeks later the app started acting up. I called to describe the issue, and their knowledgeable team immediately diagnosed it as a faulty power supply and shipped a replacement right away. The sales and service staff were both incredibly informed and helpful (I'm still not sure if they're the same team -- either way, the expertise is outstanding). If you're in the market for pool equipment, I recommend PelicanShop1 without any hesitation. I have zero affiliation with them -- I'm just a genuinely happy customer. They easily earn 10 out of 5 stars from me!

I have come here multiples times and in the summer, I mainly purchase hot tub chemicals and leave…read more No amazing or horrible service that warranted a review. However, my recent experience was pretty frustrating. Recently, I entered with the intention of having a ski boot fitting. The associate approached and I told him I wanted to buy a new pair of boots and asked if they did ski boot fitting and custom liners. He confirmed they do, and he showed me a boot on display. Then, he promptly told me the price of the fitting, boot, and liners. Instead of asking about my current boots, concerns, etc. (or even just showing me to the boot fitter), he was quick to assume my ability level, pointed towards their limited selection of womens ski boots, and walked away. I've been skiing since I was a child and never have I walked into a shop and had an associate make assumptions and walk away without assisting or directing. I walked out regretful I walked in and drove to Ski Barn in Wayne that had a much larger selection and more welcoming staff. The few associates at the desk are pleasant but the wandering associates in the ski shop area are not very helpful or knowledgable.

This was one of the best kayak experiences I had. From the initial moment we pulled up in the…read moreparking lot the staff was great. We were directed to a parking spot. Which was great because the lot was very full. There are two walk up windows to check in. I walked up to the window and had to wait literally 1 min; the line was short and quick. The girl found my reservation went over paper work that needed to be filled out, was very friendly and helpful. I will say the other girl was not particularly friendly. They're talking to you threw a window and I am partially deaf, when I asked the girl to repeat the last thing she said she was so annoyed she spoke in short sentence like I was dumb. And just before she helped me there was another group of girls that seemed to be very annoyed with her because she refused to help them. Like I said there were two lines and they were in her line but she wanted to help the gentlemen infront of me in the other line. Idk why, he wasn't even paying attention and only needed to drop his car keys off. Whatever. We grabbed our life vests, got our overview of the river and quickly hopped on a very nice, 12 pax van. It was about a 10 min ride to the drop off area which wasn't bad. I really liked that the staff grabs your kayak and paddle and brings it to the water. All you have to do is sit down and paddle away. There is another company that shared the drop off area so just be aware that you don't get the wrong kayak lol The DR is beautiful. The water is so nice and clean. There are lots of places to stop off at to eat lunch or take a swim. There were a lot of people camping along the banks. So be mindful of that when pulling off to a beach. When we go to our pick up location it was just as smooth as our drop off spot. You just paddle to the beach and a staff grabs your kayak and pulls you in. You take your things and they take the kayak and paddle. At the top of the stairs you just walk to the right and the van is waiting to take you back. Overall, wonderful company to book a kayak or raft from to enjoy the beautiful river. In highly recommend and will rebook with them. I recommend wearing a hat and water shoes and bringing a cooler for drinks and snacks.

(This was a few months ago so the details could be a bit iffy.)…read more This was a very impromptu trip and everything at Edge of the Woods makes doing that easy. Head to the website, book the date & time you want and you're done. www.watergapadventure.com/river-trips A few things worth noting: They offer multiple trip lengths. The standard 4-, 6- and 10-mile trip (Smithfield to Portland) are all booked generically and then when you get there you tell them what you want to do. All pricing is the same which believe me compared to others companies, that's very different - in a good way. They do offer two other longer trips but those require calls to the main office I assume to assess river conditions; your own competency and shuttle availability. The main office in Delaware Water Gap is very easy to find and there was plenty of parking on a quiet post-Labor Day Monday. You check in, you're handed a laminated map, life jacket and given a brief route explanation and then you're off in the van. One problem arose and it was kind of a PIA but it was worked around. Most companies have different types/sizes/models of kayaks and quite often, will ask you what you prefer. Not here. When we left the office, the guy driving didn't say a word to me until we get to Smithfield Beach to unload. He had a few kayaks pre-loaded in the carrier but definitely did not look at them before we left. One of them had a broken foot pedal that he said couldn't be used, another was very much designed for a smaller individual (i.e. if you're taller and/or taller & larger it ain't happening safely) which only left two tandem models. Using a tandem as a single individual is not the end of the world but especially when the seats are still left in the two person configuration (i.e. one front and one back versus the rear one being placed more towards the middle), it's a PIA to maneuver the craft and you are paddling harder to get the job done compared to a single. The scenery along the route was decent. You could see a bit of the Shawnee Resort and Golf Course, an old stone bridge abutment in the middle of the river, under and along 80 and then when you get into the Water Gap itself with the high cliff sides. Very picturesque. Once you go under the old train viaduct in Portland, you give the office a call for the shuttle to meet you at the out point which is at the Portland Pedestrian Bridge. The whole experience was about four hours door to door to cover the ten miles on the water plus the shuttle to & from the pick up and drop off points. Lots of nice scenery, due to the low water level there wasn't much in the way of current except for the area around viaduqt in Portland and even that wasn't bad. I'm not a big fan of the equipment here but I wouldn't let that deter me from coming back in the future for one of their northern longer trips.
