Rating:  I liked it
Reviewer: Cheri B., Tuesday, September 01, 2009
the mrs plus weight system bc is an interesting bc for an old time diver. i liked the weight pockets near the tank to eliminate the late dive buoyancy. after several attempts with the weights in their bc side pockets, i gave up and put the rest of my weights back on my weight belt. my butt floats too easily and i am more comfortable with the weights around my middle. the design fits well not bulky like some of the others i have used easy for photography. traveling was a breeze because of its light weight and easy packing. id recommend this to sport divers.

Rating: Very good BC
Reviewer: Mark L., Sunday, September 14, 2008
Im an avid cold-water diver, and was looking for a sturdy BC that I could use here as well as for tropical dives. This BC folds up for travel which is a neat trick, but that means giving up the hard tank holder and losing a bit of stability in the process. That said, this is a sharp-looking BC, very high quality, nice looking, hyper-streamlined, minimalist, well-made, and versatile. Only down-sides are that it could use a little more lift (I dive light and still found myself riding pretty low in the water, and the chest strap is not optional - you must use it. Also, the contrasting seams look cool, but the threat they use is scratchy, so I wouldnt recommend this BC for tropical dives unless youre okay with wearing a rash guard, or a thin suit. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars.

Rating: The Mares ICON BCD
Reviewer: Martin Bohn, Thursday, April 10, 2008
what a great BCD, I first tried this in the Florida caverns and then bought one right before the San Marcos River dive and now just got back from one week in Cozumel. I have also used it with my Drysuit in the Oklahome lakes. After my Zeagle I was skeptical, but have been extremely pleased and am very happy to have made the switch. I just bought my wife the ladies version, the Alikai (spelling). Thank you Mares for these great BCDs.

Great fitting wet suit! Used it on multiple dives in the Bahamas and it was perfect for the water temperature there.
