Darryl Lenz has been a flight attendant for 27 years and has seen countless stresses of families trying to lug their bags and their kids around too. Darryl and her husband Randy created a small, convenient way to wheel your suitcase along with your eight-month to 5-year-old. The product is called Ride-on Carry-on.
Darryl and Randy have sold 20k units out of their house over 14 years and 2k in the last year for about $78k in revenue.
I love a woman named Darryl because my wife's name is Greg.
A legend was born on this episode. The iconic nickname for Kevin O'Leary, Mr. Wonderful, was uttered and henceforth etched in stone.
I'll let you in on a secret. Everybody calls me Mr. Wonderful.
Kevin wants to license Ride-on Carry-on and receive a check without the hassle, while Barbara intends to build the brand. They go with Barbara.

In season 3, episode 10, Darryl and Randy gave an update that Ride-On Carry-On's sales went from $40k to $500k six months after Shark Tank aired. Barbara has been instrumental in helping them. Darryl is still a flight attendant, and Randy is still a pool guy, but if sales keep up, they will leave their jobs.
In season 5, episode 9, Barbara brought 7 of her best Shark Tank companies to her summer home in Fire Island, New York, for a retreat. Barbara announced the release of a Shark Tank book, including advice from all the sharks. Ride-On Carry-On did $1 million in sales, and it's still growing.
In 2019 Ride-on Carry-on changed its name to Think King and expanded its product line. In 2022 they will sell only hooks, and the luggage stroller is not listed on their website, think-king.com https://think-king.comLink Preview
