Any opinions on Coleman kayaks?
 

I want to buy a second kayak for "lite" kayaking. I noticed Coleman have 2
inflatable - each one about $60. One is "Coleman 1-Person Deluxe Open Top
Kayak", the other is "Coleman Inflatable Kayak".
Any opinions on those, or other cheap (less than $100) kayaks?

Save your money for better second hand boats
Better still, go to a local kayak club and try some boats, hear the stories
and then decide.

I know it's obvious advice but you get what you pay for !!
Save up for longer, spend more.

This is not an advice I was looking for. I have Kadiak (by Folbot),
but now I work near a water and I want to buy a small kayak and keep
it at work - inflatable, so it fits in my desk, so could go kayaking
after a work.
Now the question is - which one.

My advice still stands and the answer to your question is neither.

Agreed. The Innova line is quite cost-effective (price:longevity ratio)
and the one-layer construction dries faster than AIRE double-bladders.
Here is a helpful website, including FAQ on what's wrong with cheap models:

Coleman also makes inflatable air mattresses. From what I hear their Kayaks
and Air Mattresses can be used interchangably with the same results.

This is utter crap. The beam dimension and side walls of the inflatable
kayak make it very uncomfortable to sleep on, especially for larger sleepers
with long legs and large feet.

Sleep, er... Paddle on.

Ahh, the Dutch and the Belgians have always shared a particularly dry and
nasty sense of sarcasm.
