Spearfisherman says - Great quality and low price. A no brainer!
I've only had the mask for one week and only used it for one day of diving, but here is what I know so far: The mask skirt is made of a soft rubber and seems to be good quality. Comparable to my Cressi or Oceanways masks. The glass is tempered, one piece and is molded into the rubber frame of the mask. Very simple. Seems sturdy, but time will tell. The connections to the mask strap are simple and do appear a bit 'cheap', regardless they held up well and the detachable snap design is clever, simple and useful. Simple is good with dive gear. Now for the subjective part. Every mask will fit differently on each person's face depending on the shape/size of their face. Dive masks are best tried on in-person to ensure a propert fit. This mask seals very well thanks to the double seal and it fits me okay, but not perfectly... that is because my temples pinch in a bit and I have a pronounced brow and cheek bones. This causes the mask to only have a very light seal on my temples around the side of eyes. So once in a while, I'll get a little leak there. It's no big deal and I still like the mask a lot. Because of the shape of my face I have this problem with MOST MASKS I FIND. This is not a defect in this mask, just an issue with the shape of my face. So if your face is like mine, just keep this in mind. The mask is very low volume, even compared to my oceanways hd mask that is very similar in shape... this one is about half of the volume and is super easy to clear/equalize. The visibility/field of vision is EXCELLENT. The glass is huge (like a windhield! lol) and very close to your eyes which results in almost completely unobstructed vision which is really great, as long as you don't mind a big lens. So overall I give the mask 5 stars for this price point ($25-30).

Best mask I have ever owned.
This snorkeling mask is amazing. I used these at three different beaches, swimming with them for 4 to 6 hours each time. The field of view is perfect, and you can see everything crystal clear. I did not use an actual anti-fog product with it this time as I did not receive one in time, but just spit worked fine to prevent fogging. The strap clips on the side made this an absolute pleasure to put on and take off, compared to the standard need of pulling it behind your head. I was able to easily un-clip it when I wanted to remove it and just as easily put the mask on my face and clip the strap on to put it back on. I swam in water depths up to around 15 feet deep with these and had very few leak issues. Three or four times total on the trip I had not aligned it properly and ended up with a small amount of water in the mask, but when this occurred it just went into the nose section, and I was able to easily drain it just raising the mask a little and letting it run out. I carried shells and live crabs around in the mask, and got sand all over it many times, including young daughters dropping it in the sand and dragging it around a bit. There are zero scratches on the glass, and it looks as pristine as the day I received them in the mail. In addition to the mask they come with a fairly nice case to hold them in. It is a bit more bulky than a clock carrying case would be, but it also offers more protection for them. Once I received these I used the lighter(fire) method to remove the residue that is present on most masks and goggles, to prepare them to not fog up. I cannot recommend this set enough. This is the best set I have ever had. There may be better options, but I certainly do not know of one from my own experience at this price range.

Excellent Mask At A Good Price
I don't give 5 star reviews lightly, but this mask has really impressed me. -The skirt around the lens is comfortable even when worn for extended periods. -The low volume nature of this mask means that freediving is a little easier because you wont need to exhale as much out of your nose to equalize. Plus as far as swimming goes I think it's slim design has less water resistance than my last couple masks. -The fact that the glass is close to your eyes means better peripheral vision. -The strap is mounted on a nice swivel system and is comfortable and secure. -I gave the inside of my mask a good cleaning with toothpaste and then used baby shampoo for a defog solution and I have had no fogging at all. -This mask is currently the same price as some cheaply made US Divers masks I have bought in the past. At its currently price of $25 it is an absolute steal. Highly recommended

3 years later, still amazing
I bought this in 2011 and have used it extensively since 2024! and loaned it out to others (who have subsequently bought one). The silicone is still in excellent condition and the seal has been fantastic on a range of faces. My father was a navy diver and asked for one after using mine. No gimmicks, low volume, great glass (after you clean it properly). I have now bought 6 of these for family and friends. Some reviews complain of lacking complications that no diver or snorkeler should want: valves on a mask!? Some tips: The glass must be cleaned when you receive it and then treated to prevent fogging. Lots of ways to do this - look it up. But if you don't, you won't see anything through the condensation and it's not the fault of the mask. If it leaks for you, tighten it less, not more. It's definitely low volume and has taken less air than usual to equalize as I've freedived to about 60 ft. The black silicone is, of course, the only color to choose, the other colors will admit ambient light that will dilate your pupils and cause you to see less. The organic lens shape fits my peripheral vision beautifully, so, just biologically, you can't get a bigger view window than this. I'd spend twice or three times as much for this mask. My father, a dive master and 10 year US navy diver (many years ago) called it the finest mask he'd ever used, mainly because it executes a simple design vision without distraction or unnecessary points of failure (like purge valves).

Nice for the price if it fits you
If this fit I'd give it 5 stars but I have a narrow face so it leaks around the sides. The glass also pressed on my forehead. I have never purchased a mask before without first trying it on so I knew I was taking a chance - not the smartest thing to do. Mask is well made, comfortable skirt, and really good peripheral vision. Strap system is very nice for adjusting and removing. No fogging after toothpaste treatment. (As someone else mentioned, a properly treated mask will not fog up - unless you are huffing and puffing way too much.) It did not fit my wife either who has a wider face than I. Can't use it but keeping it for guests since return shipping is ridiculously high. I took another chance and ordered the Cressi F1 frameless which fits. It's not quite as nice feature-wise as this one, but works for me. I have been diving and snorkeling for 30+ years so I felt pretty foolish for purchasing a mask without trying. It really is a matter of luck getting one that fits properly this way.

The perfect mask!
This is the best mask I have tried (I freedive since I was 7). It's perfect. It fits perfect, it doesnt hurt your skin, even if you use it for hours. No leaks. It is really low volume and very easy to equalize pressure when you are geting deeper, despite it is wide field. When looking from profil you realize it is a different innovetive desing because can note so close is the glass to your face such that the nose protudes. It is durable. I feel so confortable when I use it. I love it. When you look at it from It make the dive more enjoyable. I think it worth more than it costs. I'm going to buy one more for back up. I would recommend black because clear or white tends to get yellowish (with other different masks I have tried).

Wider field of vision
Fits great, comfortable, looks great, increased field of vision, low profile. Packaged well with foam insert to protect the glass. Only issue so far is that it did not have a plastic case to store them in. After using these in several Dives, good clariry , clears water easily, minimal leaks even with mustache. After using this for a few months, its a great mask. Love it.

Leaks and fogs up
I used this mask for several snorkling trips and it failed repeatedly by letting water in. Fogs up no matter what you do to prep it as well
