Review on WACOOL Professional Adult & Teen Snorkel Diving Scuba Gear Set - Anti-Fog Coated Glass, Silicon Mouth Piece, Purge Valve & Anti-Splash. by Warrick Batebi

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good quality. Rigid frame makes for difficult fit on narrow faces.

I purchased four sets of this Wacool snorkeling package for a trip we just took to Cancun in November 2020. The set is actually quite well constructed. The quality is impressively good. The snorkel in particular works very well. I have nothing negative to say about the snorkel. What I found difficult with the goggles is that they have a rigid frame around the glass lenses. This frame does not allow for any flexing. Me and my family all have narrow faces, so it made it difficult to get a really good seal on the face without pushing so hard that it felt like it was going to such your eyeballs out. I would frequently have to pull them off and put them back on because water was leaking in the upper corners of my face. The goggles did fog up, but you get that with pretty much any goggle, so don't let that be a deterrent. We applied baby shampoo before going out each time and just rinsed it out (don't wipe it out), and that seemed to work quite well to minimize the fogging.I think if you have a normal face that isn't skinny that these will work just fine for you. For kids, petite women or guys like me that have a narrow face they may have the same problem that I had. I almost purchased a pair of the Cressi frameless snorkeling masks so I could compare them, but I didn't. Now I wish I had because I think a frameless mask would provide more flexibility to adjust to my face.

Pros
  • The bright color of orange. It was a gift for a grandson and he loved it.
Cons
  • Wore it for 2 snorkels and water started to leak from the right lens!!!
