I have done 5 dives on it now and it has been working great if you are looking for a BC for travel than its probably not the right one because its on the more bulky side but otherwise it's a very comfortable well designed good quality BCD

Solid BCD, purchased to use while instructing... Integrated weights are hard to reseat, but expect they will loosen up with use... At the right price, you will be very happy... that price is NOT $600 though...lol
