Rating: Great Bottle
Reviewer: Robert R., Thursday, October 01, 2009
I bought this bottle because I needed something quickly and the order through the local dive shop was going to take too long. Im a bit of an air hog (hence the 100 CU 3442 tank) and I like steel for the buoyancy characteristics. This bottle is great. Its relatively light for a steel tank, compact, and the galvanized coating is better than painted bottles in my opinion as it wont peel off. My other two bottles are Genesis 120CU 3442s and this one is actually more negative both full and empty so I got to take another 2 lbs out of my weight pockets. Sweet. Overall I think this is a great product. Buy with confidence.

Rating: 100 cf steel tank
Reviewer: David M., Wednesday, August 19, 2009
This tank is great because it is much smaller and 13 lbs lighter than my 100cf compact aluminum tank. Steel tank is 35 lbs, compact aluminum is 48 lbs. In addition I was able to almost cut my weight in half. I just got back from lobster season in the keys and wish I had 2 of em.

Rating: Great Tank
Reviewer: Darrell Brackett, Monday, March 30, 2009 - View all my reviews
This tank is the perfect size for my usual diving needs. 100 CF gives me plenty of air to spare, allows deep dives, and the weight of the tank helps keep my weight belt slim.
Im using the tank for Nitrox, and tank and valve are Nitrox ready. I also like the ability to switch the valve to DIN if necessary.
Overall a great tank at a great value. I highly recommend. If you dive regularly, you should own your own tank. This is a great choice.

Rating: FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!
Reviewer: LONNIE D., Monday, March 09, 2009
Ordered these tanks from an overseas location and recieved them in less than a week! These tanks are great, Worthington Steel makes some of the best steels on the market, and boy can they hold some gas. The tanks are MUCH smaller than an AL 80 and the weight is great. I dive with a steel backplate and STA and these tanks are perfect...I use them with EANx for phenomenal bottom times!! Scuba.com will be my new "go to" for ALL online orders.

Rating: Much better than expected
Reviewer: Adam Helberg, Monday, February 16, 2009
compared to my old al80, i was able to shed 8 lbs of lead from my back pouches. i now dive with just 14 lbs in my 7mm suit with hooded vest. my trim is better and air consumption has ped as well. its a nice size too, because on boats you only get a 3000 psi fill, so with the 100 tank you still get more than 80 cu ft of air. i highly recommend this tank.

Rating: Great tank
Reviewer: Richard Shrewsbury, Sunday, November 16, 2008 - View all my reviews
steel tanks ("cylinders") always beat aluminum this 100cu.ft. beats my old 80 steel, now that the boats i use the most have 3000psi capability. i get an extra 10-15 minutes per dive, with no change in weight from the old 80.

Rating: Because one sive ALM 80 does not fit all
Reviewer: Shaun B., Monday, September 24, 2007 - View all my reviews
Love this tank, for the following reasons: 1. It’s the same size as an ALM 80 tank but provides a much great safety factor. 2 It proves me with less buoyancy IE less weight to use approx 5 pounds saved. 3 it’s great for DIN and Non DIN regulators.

Rating: Buy ONE
Reviewer: Keith Fortlage, Wednesday, August 30, 2006 - View all my reviews
I really like this tank. I have an Al. 80 as well and this tank is much better. It has great bouyancy and lets you eliminate weights. The 100 cu. ft. is nice too because it lets you extend the dive a little longer with a better safety margine. If your looking for a tank go with STEEL.

Reviewer: Steven S., Monday, March 02, 2009
The whole process went smoothly. The tank came quickly. Had the local dive shop screw in the valve and fill it. No problems.
