"I consider these to be a like a hot girlfriend in college. We had some great times together and when things clicked, oh boy did they ever click! But, you soon find out that the relationship doesn't have long-term potential. You decide to ride it out for a while, knowing full well it won't last. Enjoying the times you have together."matt3liv

Ease of use

The strap adjustment clips are nice. It makes it easy to move a measured number of clicks. They hold nicely too.

(2)

Quality of Construction

I've bought two pair. The first pair was pretty decent, but developed an unrepairable leak after about two months of swimming 3x per week. The other pair I bought after I new the first ones fit, but before the first pair started to leak. I tossed the packaging out and the receipt. Ya, well, they leaked right from the beginning and it was due to a defect in the molded outer frame. There was a big air pocket around the lens and it would never hold the water out.

Fit

Fit was great. High bridge and comfortable gasket seal.

(5)

Comfort

Very comfortable. I didn't get discomfort even after two hour swims.

(3)

Adjustability

I liked the clicker-style band adjustment. There is no nose bridge adjustment though. I didn't need it on these.

(3)

Durability

I think I got two bad pair, but I'm not going to rush out an buy another set.

(2)

Value

I bought these on end of summer clearance. They were only $10 each. Decent price.

(3)

Appearance

Look fine.

(1)

Customer Service

Terrible. I have tried to contact CS several times, but they will never reply. I haven't been able to find the phone number, just a customer service email for AquaLung. Very disappointed in this.

(3)

Performance

When they worked, they worked really well. Best goggles I've had. When they failed, it was a total loss.

Strengths

Fit, field of view, comfort.

Weakness

Durability, company support, quality construction.
