The mask had a nice flexible feel to it. Fit well around my face. I would recommend shaving before snorkeling or scuba diving. I had minor leakage around my upper lip because i had about 5 day beard growth. I didn't think of that prior to our trip.

Love the color & light weight of set; however, for my use in swimming laps the "dry" design prevented me from intaking enough air.

I bought these for my boyfriend because his pair broke recently. He’s often had trouble with masks leaking because he has a beard. He said this mask was the best he’s ever used. He even forgot to bring antifog spray and said it is didn’t fog until almost an hour. We highly recommend it.

I ordered one of these a couple years ago, it still works great. I purchased a new one so I would have one to use at my sister's house when I visit. The new mask also works great. No leaking, can see clearly. The only time I have any issues is when I get my hair between the mask and my face, then it leaks a bit. User error there. I would recommend this product without reservations.

Cressi is hard to beat in my opinion. The mask seals very well even with a little facial hair and the rubber is soft so it doesn't hurt your face after hours of use. Same for the mouthpiece on the snorkel. Good angle of view on the goggles as well.

La maschera è definita molto bene ed è professionale. Effettivamente permette di avere un raggio visivo leggermente migliore di una classica maschera. Curata in tutto e solo dalla custodia si capisce la qualità. Non metto 5 stelle in quanto nonostante abbia abbinato anche il prodotto spray anti fog cressi noto sempre che la maschera tende ad appannarsi un poco.

I used these on a recent trip to the USVI for 6 days in a row of snorkeling. They worked great.No issues with the snorkel when I dove and resurfaced - but don't tilt your head or the stopper at the top of the snorkel might not re-open to allow air in.I have a big beard and it took a few tries at first standing in shallow water to get a good technique to get a good seal with the mask. Even when I didn't get a perfect seal, water leakage was very slow. But a little pool of water at the bottom of my mask was perfect to get rid of condensation while tilting my head around - when I didn't have defogging spray available. Also going to bring some vaseline next time to deal with my beard.As others noticed, can get a bit of pressure on the bridge of your nose. My nose was a little sore after a few hours swimming around but I can deal.Durable construction and the carry case was convenient to have.

Great set. Even managed to lose it on a reef and find it again because of the colour!! Used it loads in Hawaii this year. No major issues. Fogged like all anti fog masks do because you can't always stop it. Bit of spray fixed that and the visuals through it were great. Worth the price.

mask: Love the side views but it does not extend out enough- fits too flat to my face to really see things moving out of the corner of my eye- I have an older US Divers mask that has a better side window. It also presses against my glabella (between eyebrows above nose) whereas my other mask does not. giving it four stars because the silicone seal is still really good and I barely have fogging issues (i do use a drop of no tears soap on the lens)snorkel: am used to a harsher purge and this soft purge is kinda odd- sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. The top seal is awesome- fewer bubbles during a free dive (scares less fish) and barely any water to purge when resurfacing. overall a good mask for the price but if given the choice i would go back to my US divers avalon mask and keep this snorkel.

Nice mask, very comfortable and doesn't leak. It could use a valve under the nose, which was a feature on my old mask, and I do miss it.The plug at the top of the snorkel sometimes gets stuck closed and requires shaking to re-seat it in the open position. This has only happened after travelling with the snorkel, hasn't happened while snorkeling.Overall a good quality kit.Tip to those considering "wide-view" vs "3 window". Having a straight glass directly above the nose (3 window) rather than a division (wide view), really doesn't offer any extra view. In practice you cant really see anything above your nose without crossing your eyes so the division would be un-noticable.

Great quality mask and snorkel.The mask: The lens is tempered glass which, compared to poly lenses, gives me a much clearer view and I don't have to worry about scratches so much. These seem to let in a LOT more light than any other mask I've ever used, which is great for low visibility areas, but a little annoying near the surface as my eyes are very sensitive to light, I usually prefer a tinted lens on sunny days. The side lenses are crystal clear too and the silicon seem between the glass is the highest quality glass seem I have ever seen. These side lenses distort the direction of the side view. Where something appears to be 90 degrees to the side, is actually more like 135 degrees. I have to get use to this, but once I do, I think I will like it as you can basically have a 270 degree field of view with 3 blind spots: one directly behind you from 135 to 225 degrees and one on either side from 90 to 120 degrees and 240 to 270 degrees respectively. This leaves a total of 210 degrees of viewing. The mask fits great on my face. I usually have trouble my nose bridge, but these do not bother me. The rubber is very soft and fits so well, I do not have to wear them tightly. They seal themselves to my face. While they do not have a built-in purge, they don't need one. It is so easy to purge this mask and adjust it underwater, you render any purge valve useless.The snorkel: I like to dive and surface without having to surface for air. I blow out most of the air from my lungs before I come up which makes it difficult to clear traditional snorkels. This snorkel prevents water from entering the snorkel while under water. A little still gets in but I can inhale as soon as I surface with just a little water gurgling in my mouth; not so much that it gets into my throat, though. Sometimes when I surface, there is not water at all. The bite is super soft and my jaw seems to not get tired after a long day of diving.I have not scuba dived with this mask yet, so I can only speculate that the soft material may collapse at depth, causing some discomfort, but I have no reason to believe it would fail. If I were to take it beyond 18 meters, I might bring a spare with a stiffer material, but I think I would be ok without one.
