By lunchbox from Tri Cities, Washington on 08/17/2009 Pros: Easy To Carry, Fins run true to size, Fins tightenloosen well, Snorkel clears easily Describe Yourself: Recreational Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This product is a good deal for the price you pay. Nothing too fancy for beginners, but performs well.
I use them in our pool, as well as lakes. You have good vision through the mask, the tempered glass makes everything nice and clear.
The only "con" I have noticed is that the closure of the mask, below the nose, can leak a little. But technique can take care of that.
By Joe the swimmer from ann arbor, Michigan on 08/08/2009 Describe Yourself: Recreational Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Note: I actually got the extrema II professional, which I think is simply the new version of this. I'm assuming everything still applies.
I was wondering why this cost 2x as much as the U.S. Divers model, and hoped it was consequently better made. However, I really don't think it is, and it's significantly less comfortable. The facemask doesn't fit larger faces well, and the hard plastic section presses into the bridge of your nose (and cramps your nostrils). The fin straps are difficult to adjust. And the clip that attaches the snorkle to the mask presses uncomfortably into the side of your head. (And is very difficult to adjust/use.)
Not sure why a set that costs twice as much as a cheaper competitor ends up being more poorly made. I'm very disappointed -- I wanted to like this b/c I like the color scheme better than the boring blue U.S. Divers colors -- wish they still made the cool yellow-green model from 2005.
