Summary: Disappointed
Comment: While this set is not the most expensive, it certainly is not the cheapest either. And I expected quality workmanship from a product with quality (silicone) materials. I had the same problems with the snorkel that some others did but I could get used to it. It's kind of a trade-off for such a dry snorkel. But the biggest problem is that I bought two of these sets for a Caribbean vacation and one of the masks had a slow leak from the very beginning. We were on vacation for a month so no returning the darn thing. Now I'm here shopping for a replacement for an upcoming Florida Keys vacation. Not good.

Summary: Worked Perfectly!
Comment: Took these snorkeling sets to the Mayan Riveria, Yucatan Mexico for our honeymoon... I was secretly freaked out about snorkeling for the first time, and had been practicing breathing through the snorkel in the shower before we left (where else are you going to practice in Montana?) Anyhow, when we got to Mexico and started out in a lagoon, I was THRILLED at how easy and safe it was. No water got in my eyes, nose, mouth, or lungs. A few days later I found myself snorkeling in the big wide carribean with sea turtles! I highly recommend this snorkel set - it was water-tight, and the sideview mask was awesome. It worked perfectly.

Summary: GOOD BRAND, POOR DESIGN, SNORKEL USELESS
Comment: I had the same problems as as other reviewer. The valve on the snorkel closes when you don't need it and in turn, cuts off your ability to breathe air. I also found it to be heavy and feel it should be held in place by the mask.

Summary: PERFORMED AS PROMISED
Comment: My family was planning to go on a cruise in the southern Caribbean. We didn't want to have to pay for expensive snorkeling excursions for each port. So, we decided to buy our own snorkeling equipment and head out on our own. It was very painful to try to interpret all the specs on the equipment. For several of the adventurous snorkelers in our family, we bought the mask with the total dry snorkel. It performed as promised. We have various face sizes also. Mask was easy to adjust and had good peripheral visibility. We bought this equipment in conjunction with other lower-end snorkel set for less adventuresome family members.

Summary: So So
Comment: Do not buy a mask online unless you have tried the model on your face. Also I have found that the sniff test does not necessarily ensure a water seal so I would never buy another mask without first wearing it in water.
The snorkel sucks. It is supposed to prevent water from getting in but none of these gadgets really work and I think you are better off anticipating it being filled with water then the other way around.
