A Gilley: Bought this with my Cressi mask. Was disappointed that it was Chinese made (my mask is made in Italy). But it performed fantastically. Very comfortable and no water issues. Love the quick access tab to put on or take off the mask.
Very happy with the purchase.

J. Polinkas: Follow up: snorkeled the Bahamas. Even in choppy water it worked perfectly.
First time using a dry snorkel, and I love it. I grew up at the beach and used straight snorkels all my life. I was a little concerned about reports of the valve sticking but I give a small exhale when I surface to clear the purge valve and the valve opens everytime. Also I’m a big guy with a large head and it adjusts perfectly. Can’t wait to snorkel in the Bahamas with it.

B-Nez: I love this snorkel. The silicone mouthpiece is so comfortable against your mouth and gums, you can snorkel for hours. Even in yellow flag conditions (moderate surf), I never get a drop of water in the snorkel. I Do some shallow diving as well, and have no issues with water getting in, float re-opening, or purge valve clogging. The only time I get water in it is when I drop it from my mouth to talk, and the purge valve is easy and efficient to clear. It just works. Really dig the quick release buckle - makes it easy to attach quickly without futzing with the strap.

Woody4637: Although this snorkel is promoted as “dry”, I still got a fair amount of sea water in my mouth when snorkeling in semi-rough conditions. On the plus side, I like the flexible tube which means that the mouthpiece is easier on the jaws as compared to some cheaper models.

Amazon Customer: I went snorkeling and skin diving in the lake last week and the snorkel kept the water out when I dove down 6 feet. The snorkel is easy to hold in the mouth. Definitely, worth the price and it came on time to my home. Would recommend this snorkel to anyone that enjoys snorkeling and skin diving.

BookWorm: I've found this snorkel quite hard to get used to. It has a very long and flexible tube between the main pipe and the mouthpiece. This does give it some more flexibility when positioning it. The mouthpiece isn't too huge and had teeth grips. It took me a very long time to work out the best way to attach it to my mask. It has a detachable clip which you can run your mask strap through and then snap into the part on the snorkel, which does make it easier to attach, but also easy to attach upside down and the wrong way round. It doesn't work very well for people who have to wear their masks on the tightest setting (like I do) as there isn't enough free strap to attach it to. It ends up crushing your ear, or you have to loosen your mask which of course can let water in. However after a lot of fiddling and cursing I did finally work out a position that seems to work for me.

The snorkel does stay watertight and has a reasonable angle above the water. The flexible pipe part helps with that. I've not used it in really rough conditions yet to know how wave resistant it is, and I'm not much of a duck diver so can't comment on that element either.

All in all, the snorkel does...

K. Hughes: Tried it out on a snorkel trip to Hawaii, and I really liked it. I mostly snorkel on the surface, or dive in shallow areas. This trip, my ears were clogged and I tried diving but could not clear my ears, so I really did mostly stay on the top. However, in very shallow dives, this snorkel stayed dry. I have a Tusa Hyperdry, which is not really a dry snorkel (Tusa does have a dry model), and I liked this Cressi better. For a snorkel, the mouthpiece was fairly comfortable. Most days when I snorkeled, I was out for 45-60 minutes, and it did get a little uncomfortable at the end, but that seems true of all snorkels I have tried.

I liked this snorkel so much that I had my husband try it one day, but he was not as fond of it. He said it seemed to limit his breathing a bit, but then, he dove more and maybe he didn't realize that it shuts off your air intake when the tip goes under water. In a regular snorkel, the mouthpiece fills up with water so you know you are under and can't breathe. Since this stays dry, you might not realize that you ducked your head under water briefly and the snorkel shut off to keep the water out. Anyway, I liked it a lot and will retire my other snorkel...
