If you're looking for a durable, strong and almost bulletproof BCD jacket than the Start is what you are looking for. Constructed from extremely Strong 500 and 1000-Denier Cordura, with excellent buoyancy, even on smaller sizes the Start full jacket BCD fits the bill. Designed with the demanding use of dive training and rental facilities in mind this BCD will give the sport diver years of dependable use.The BCD has three over-pressure relief/dump valves with two located on the left and right shoulders and a third lower valve on the rear right of the air cell. All three can be manually dumped two with pull cords and the other with the power inflator mechanism. There are two plastic D-rings and two additional snap hooks for attachment of instruments and accessories. If used at dive facilities a size indicator is highly visible on the right shoulder.BCD has two large accessory storage pockets with hook and loop closures, and the adjustable sternum straps along with both torso adjustment and waist straps are equipped with "squeeze-style" side-release buckles for easy donning and doffing The waist strap/cummerbund assembly is independently suspended from the air cell allowing the air cell to inflate away from the diver preventing the "squeeze-effect" when inflated. The backpack is rigid for support and stability of the cylinder yet is fully padded for comfort. The Cressi Start BCD come with a 3/8" threaded quick-disconnect low-pressure hose and owner's manual.

The item was nice quality.  It does not have weight pockets which makes it tough to use in my option.

BCD Vest Review

It serves it's purpose but certainly isn't elegant. The pockets are huge which is nice and the absence of any "weight system" is just what I was looking for. If that is the kind of thing you are looking for, I'd recommend it. It should hold up very well as the construction is solid.

Utilitarian

Great BC for the price. Excellent quality and perfect for the occasional diver.

Very good product

It took a long time to get used to this BC, it is difficult to adjust the buoyancy. I was constantly adding and dumping air. I will go back to my old orange jacket.

Not user friendly

Very good BC

It?s a good vest that functions well. It?s not a great vest but I wasn?t trying to buy anything great. In short it is as expected and works well.

Cressi BCD

Exactly as described.  Basic BCD with all the necessary pockets, rings, and relief valves.  Great price and good value.  I would recommend this product.

New Cressi BCD

Here?s the deal: I wanted something reliable fir my first bcd ever. I wanted basic but good. I got basic but good. 
Here?s my thought: every shop I?ve been to in the world stocks this bcd for rentals that?s good sign that this was reliable and durable.

Everything I needed on a bcd

Perfect entry-level BCD.  Well designed and comfortable.   Great for the start of a dive career at very little cost.  I purchased this for my daughter as she got certified and I was confident in the quality as she learned to dive.

Cressi BCD recommendation

Great value

A good choice.

Excellent

Nice StudentBCD

Low cost but high quality. For the diver first starting out, this is the best BCD. Buying it from Scuba.com was the best choice due to the quick turn around. It arrived before the arrive day. Will use Scuba.com again.

Great starter BCD

Great products and fast shipping! Completely happy with my purchase!

Perfect product

Looks great and cant wait to hit the water with it.

Awesome

Bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it.  He said it's perfect and has held up great and he would highly recommend it and the price can't be beat.

Great quality and Great Price

I've owned all types of BCs. I always go back to jacket style..

Cressi makes solid equipment

Worked exactly as expected. Fit perfectly. Easy to use. Quality build. Basic, but that’s what I was wanted.

I was able to pack in my suitcase, on my last trip to the Bahamas. Made it to to have one less bag to handle.

Overall it is a great BC does not have weight pockets if you don't have a weight belt.

Good BC

Great starter bcd. Perfect for external weight belt. I ordered the xl as I’m 250 lbs. Doff and Don with adjustable buckles were easy to do for my open water feet.

Great starter bcd

good simple but the tank restraint and base are on the cheap side

Good startup BCD

I purchased this to use while teaching in the pool.  Since chlorine kills just about any BC, we were looking for something on the low end knowing its days would be limited.  For the price, this is a great BC.  One thing to keep in mind, it does not have integrated weights so you will need to wear a traditional weight belt.  Otherwise, fit is good and it is a good pool or starter BC.

Great for Pool Use

I went diving with the Cressi Sub BCD on the 4th of July at the Chesapeake Light Tower spear fishing.  It performed very well. It is tough,rugged, functional and easy to operate. Inexpensive and highly recommended. ??

Cressi Sub BCD

Love this bc is great for starters and at a great price

I’d recommend

While it is not the fanciest, this is a reliable piece of gear that works well and is durable.  I bought a bunch for folks that will use it for field work, and everyone is safe and satisfied.
