I received my prescription mask and snorkel shortly after placing my order. Order processing speed through to fulfillment was excellent. When my items arrived I was excited to try them on. The fins appear satisfactory, and the prescription seems on point, however the quality of the mask it’s is still in question for me as it feels flimsy. I will rewrite my review after my end of April vacation. Thank you!
They got the prescription correct and I couldn’t believe it when I put on the goggles. I could see it’s unbelievable. I’m so excited to snorkel again and be able to see everything around me.
I am so happy with these snorkel gear. The price was right, and I was able to see underwater for the first time ever. The fish and reef colors were so vivid and clear, not blobs, and the basic prescription worked well despite my astigmatism. The mask let in a little water near the nose when I was scruffy, but when I had a closer shave it worked just fine. 10/10
What took me so long to try this? I have perfect vision both near and far with this mask. In the past, I have used contact lenses with a regular mask for years to give me clear/far vision ( I am nearsighted). As I have gotten older, I now need bifocals. When I got my GoPro, I then had a new problem. I had distance vision, but could not see the setting on my GoPro with my contacts, even multifocal lenses. This has eliminated my need for contacts and all of the issues around needing clean hands, free of oils and sand to insert of
remove them. I love this whole set.
The fit and seal of this mask is also superior to a cheaper RX version that I tried.
The prescription is only "close" to my actual prescription (They only do 0.5 dioptre increments, and I have 0.25 in my Rx), but for diving, that's so much better than no prescription at all!!! Seeing clearly as far as underwater visibility allows is new to me. I've worn glasses since I was ten, and needed them before then. For at least 38 years I've been waiting for a prescription mask, and didn't even know it!
This is my first Rx mask, but even the mask itself is the best fit and seal, and stays fog-free better than any mask I've used in 35 years. Granted, I picked this size based on the guidelines on the website, and I think there were only two to choose from. Heck, they may have even been about the fins and not the mask; I forget since it took me a month to get to the reef to try it out.
The fins are a great fit for my US 11 shoe size. The mask and snorkel are a matched set that work terrifically. It even came with a mesh gear bag that fits everything in it perfectly! I do prefer masks that anchor the strap to the rigid frame instead of the gasket, but at this price point, who can complain?
Of particular note: There was a small strip of paper in the mask itself instructing customers on how to remove a protective silicone layer (using mild abrasive pastes, like toothpaste or toilet cleaner), which I followed exactly, and I am so glad I did! Now, when entering the water, I rinse the inside of the lenses and then apply spit and work it around, leaving a coating on the lenses. Even after more than forty minutes, when the spit is starting to dry, still no fogging.
A+ Will buy again!!
