"I received great customer service when trying to find the right mouthpiece for an extra snorkel I had."
"We bought 2 of these mouthpieces to take with us on a trip to Hawaii - we had planned for a private snorkeling tour and the Captain supplied the snorkeling gear but I wasn't comfortable using the mouthpieces that so many others have used."
"I ordered the Black/Blue one and it worked absolutely perfectly.. as a matter of fact, all the other students loved it and asked me how much and where I got it from, the day we started doing our pool testing, and were jealous."
"These mouth pieces work great and look good too."

Reviews

"There is no side handle for lifting so if you are short it is difficult to get it up into a small plane."
"The material, zippers, etc are comparable to other brands as Mares, Cressi (my last bag was a Mares) and it was a hard call considering I knew what I had and moving to a new product, read mountains of reviews and pulled the trigger."
"If your packing JUST your gear in this bag it is actually a bit overkill and I could see using something much smaller and lighter, but as a one bag fits all it's great. My reason for 4 and not 5 stars is based simply on the Weight and Size of the bag, I'm not a big guy, so I believe they could have cut down the bag size by a Quarter or so and easily fit most peoples dive gear and still had room for other things."
"Good spacious bag."
"I shopped long and hard to find a large dive bag that would accomodate my dive gear and clothes for a dive trip to the Philippines. THIS BAG WAS ONLY GOOD FOR ONE TRIP!!!"
"I have used my bag 4 times and the retractable handle mechanism has parted from the rest of the bag."
"4 people I know got this bad included me.3 of them falling apart.straps survive 3 trips.fins pockets rip off after 7 trips.and on top of that this thing is heavy so 50 on limit is rough to hold on the way back from diving.dont waist he time and look for better bag divers."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Pros: * full face mask has tons of viewing space. * can look down under water to fully submerged face or keep half of the mask above the water to see above and below at the same time. * when my wife used it she was able to swim for about 10 minutes before the mask got foggy. When our son used it it got foggy quicker. * can completley submerge mask and snorkel under the water and come back up without any water getting in the mask. * The Mask fit myself and my wife as well as our seven year old and 4 year old. * mask can be used without the snorkel but it is just an open hole so you should stay near the surface. * fins are fully adjustable and have little loops on the straps for ease-of-use. * if your feet are too long your toes can stick out the front a little. * set comes with a mesh bag for the mask and snorkel."
"I thought this would be a good option for snorkeling and decided to purchase this for the coming year."
"I was worried with the breathing tube connected to it that the mask would fog up but it did not! I loved that the breathing tube is connected to the top of the mask and you don't have to hold it in your mouth."
"This mask definitely fit differently than the traditional mask and snorkel."
"It was always so annoying using regular snorkel gear when you constantly had to spit in the goggles (cuz I guess that helped) and suction the thing to your face!"
"The mask and fins are well mafe and fit well."
"Just got back from Key West and took my Snorkel set to use at Smather's Beach."
"Most snorkel's I've got that awkward thing in my mouth, and I'm trying to make it work with my goggles and keep water out of my eyes."

"Comes with a Bluetooth dongle which was good because I think my Samsung Tab Pro has some compatibility issues, no problems using the Shearwater provided dongle. The air integration lets me review my air usage after the fact helping plan future dives."
"It may be overkill for recreational divers, but it is very simple to put into open circuit recreation diving mode, and then it only presents the info that I need."
"This was a good computer, but the Perdix AI takes the cake. I no longer need a computer or have to wait to get to shore to upload my dives. In a matter of a couple of minutes I was able to update the dive profile info and ready to relax. I can compare this to the iPhone, while not the only dive computer capable with all these features, but they just do it so well."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The package arrived on schedule [same day Amazon said it would] and the first thing I noticed was how light the set was. I have a fairly large head, and the silicon adjustable straps work and stretch amazing well. I'm a men's size 10.5 and there was still lots of room to adjust bigger, or way smaller if needed. I bought the first set for my Lovely wife [she's a women's size 9.5] and they fit her nicely also. I mainly bought the set for the snorkel as it's very comfortable and has the flex hose so it adjusts wherever you need it. Just buying a dive snorkel alone costs around $20-$30 so I scored big time."
"Overall, this was a good snorkel set, but I can't give it five stars. They were nice and portable (we were able to pack all three sets in a rollaboard suitcase). We dove underwater frequently to see additional wildlife and it wouldn't let any water in. They did let a little water in under the nose over time, but I understand that's to be expected (mostly due to laughing or smiling underwater :) ). My piece of plastic fell off at some point and I had to feed the mask strap through the connector as a workaround. These are going to feel more secure, be easier to get on and off, and give you a bit more piece of mind in case you hit a sharp rock."
"On top of that on the first day the mask clip broke on the USD snorkel which meant I had to hold it upright with one hand to use it. Perhaps if I would have had bigger fins I would have understood what reviewers that complained about the size were talking about, but since I didn't have that comparison to make I was quite satisfied. As with many things one's expectations no doubt play a role in whether one will be satisfied with a product and I don't mean to suggest that this is anything more than a vacation snorkel set, but for that purpose its perfect."

"Works well when you can actually get them on your feet without the straps coming loose."
"My kids both like to use fins, but with the luggage regulations, we never bring heavy/bulky fins on vacation."
"There’s a lot of comment about sizes this one doesn’t tell Wide or Medium it just S, M , L size, my feet size is 9.5 and I choose Large & it fits very well that being said if your feet is size 12 and above it might not fit well."
"The quick adjust straps slip in the mounts so bad they fell through under stress & needed constant adjustment."
"I swim every morning each summer and original design works great in lap pool at my gym."
"Divers products......They are normally excellent products...in fact, these fins are excellent quality......they just don't seem to represent the right foot size correctly..perhaps if there had been an Extra-Large available they may have received a bit better rating!"

"That’s a dilemma to swim during the winter and the heated pool after about an hour passes my goggles just Stay foggy but This product really cleared it up."
"Note: you still need to make sure you properly clean a new mask to remove the silicone from the factory, otherwise, nothing will keep the mask from fogging."
"This is the first time I have used defoger."
"Even brand new goggles can get a little foggy and this spray keeps things nice and clear for a while."
"Also based on other reviews I ordered the 3-bottle set instead of 1 bottled to test."
"I had to rinse the mask so much that it washed out all the spray and the mask would fog. My husband was able to use it if he was careful to spray just a little, wipe it around and then dunk the mask in water once. Do not rinse (which I did without thinking after using the Spit stuff and had to restart). Worked even better than the spit stuff not including the stinging eyes. I mean, really, if the people who go snorkeling and scuba diving every day in Maui, HI haven't even heard of this quick spit spray stuff before (none had, I asked), then it can't be but so good."

The snorkel comes out of the top of the mask and your whole face is covered so you just breathe normally and enjoy the panoramic views with never having to worry about guzzling the ocean!"

"My grand really likes it."
"What I expected looking forward to trying them out!"
"Product arrived as shown."
"The ocean was a little rough when I tested it out, but no water got in... not even when the waves were crashing over the snorkel."
"Pros: - Comfort. - Water guard- automatically (and perfectly I might add) keeps water from going in the breathing tube during under water dives and tall waves. - Unobstructed view with 180 degree glass design. - Ability to breathe through both nose and mouth comfortably. *Note- if you are used to a traditional snorkel and mask like me then make sure you take 5 minutes to get used to the feel of breathing underwater with this mask before taking it out on open water."
"I thought I'd give this thing a try... For years I've used a normal snorkel/mask setup, but I'm surprised and HAPPY to say this full face snorkel blows the old stuff out of the water!! Comfortable, strong, great quality, and it's easy to snap the snorkel on the mask."

"We've bought and replaced the typical-style snorkels several times due to all of those annoying issues that seems to go along with them (flimsy, leaky masks, breakage in the breathing apparatus, etc). We were even able to communicate without all the flailing hand gestures ;) Granted, you're still under water so it's difficult to hear, but since your nose and mouth are both free, it's relatively easy to talk. We definitely got a lot of strange looks, and you'll feel like a huge nerd with this giant astronaut-style facemask with big ol' straps on the the back of your head, but the ease of use and quality of the mask will make you super happy you sacrificed traditional masks and "style", I promise ;) Also, be prepared to have a big red ring around your face after prolonged use (don't worry, it fades quickly and it doesn't hurt)."
"The chin adjustment straps loosen up over a short time allowing the seal to break and the mask to leak. Use colgate toothpaste to cover the inside of the mask and let it sit until your next trip...then rinse it out....your mask will never fog up again. Set the straps where you need them and safety pin them or even use a paper clip to keep them in place for a good seal that will stay."

The D520 has all the marks of a quality flashlight: -The finish is very good, no uneven, crude surfaces, cheap materials, etc. In general I notice that the attention to small details (like including some spare o-rings) is something that often is absent with really cheap flashlights. It doesn’t have a switch (which is something that could always potentially break) and instead relies on twisting the head of the flashlight to turn it on and off. A lot of people don’t realize that rubber needs oil or lubricants just as much as leather and other products. You can still use it as a normal flashlight for a short amount of time as long as you hold it in your hand. If you need to drain the battery so that you can fully charge it, just turn the flashlight on and put in a basin full of water like I did. One thing to keep in mind though is that the human eye perceives warm lights as less bright than cold lights, so with the same lumen output a cold LED will seem brighter than a warm LED."
