"Basic good design"

I bought this set to use for my summer vacation. I'm from the Caribbean..so the beach is just 10 minute drive. It's basically a good kit for the price but the snorkle is not a "dry snorkle". Instead it has slits to the side to flush out excess water if you either go below, or a wave forced water in. There's a valve in the base of the snorkle that lets clearing the tube real easy however. I spear fish for hours sometimes so I personally rather a true dry snorkle. Blowing out water from a snorkle for a few hours tends to hurt the mouth when the day is done. However for recreational purposes its ok.

As for the glass its easily adjustable and I found even my kids(6&8) can wear it and get a tight fit. That's not always true with diving glasses. It also lets a lot of light in and I can see from the corner of my eyes. This helps ease the mind, as I have been watching "shark week" lol.

"Decent starter kit"

Cons: The ribbed goggle snaps didn't hold in place on one side after 2-3 uses. If you have a small head, it could be an issue as a tight fit is needed for snorkling.

Pros: For the price, this is a good set. The flippers are large and truely help in ocean swimming. The snorkle design helps keep splashes from getting into the breathing tube. 3 stars

"A great set for a great price"

I bought this set in order to go snorkeling in the pool to practice for snorkeling in the Mediterranean. The mask is great, with easy to adjust straps (while you're wearing it, too). The snorkel works really well and hsa several cool features to keep water out. The mouthpiece is soooo comfortable. I have a piercing in my frenulum (the thing that connects your gums to your upper lip) and the mouthpiece does not bother it at all (like cheap others have in the past) The fins work well, but are wider than I'm used to (which is old crappy gym fins). I recommend this set for everyone!!
I use the mask with waterproof earphones and ipod case, and the mask straps don't bother my ears at all. 5 stars

"Rediculous Shipping Charges"

I'll not buy from you again, because of the expensive way you packaged and shipped each item separately when they could have been sent in one box. 3 stars

"does the job"

my boyfriend and i took these with us to bermuda. they're kind of big to lug around everywhere, but the rental charges are so high that it seemed like it was worth it to buy our own. these seem to be of pretty high quality and everything worked fine. my only complaint is that the clip that attaches the snorkel to the mask is pretty loose, so at one point the snorkel fell off and swam around in the ocean by itself. we ended up finding it, but that was kind of annoying. i think it would make more sense to have the snorkel permanently attached to the mask. 4 stars
