This model is available in a myriad of colors to match your personal style. Each color choice changes the edges of the of the design, as well as the color of the breathing tube and stopping ball. The viewfinder offers a 180 degree view, and it sits far enough from your eyelashes to not cause any discomfort while you are down there with the fishes.

Functionality:

There are a lot of great features with this model that make it stand out from the rest. It has mount along the top that will allow the swimmer to affix a GoPro camera to easily catch all of the action of their day under the water. There is also a anti-fogging chamber that directs all of your exhales away from the glass, and will prevent the glass from becoming fogged up.

It is available in three sizes to ensure that it will fit snuggly and tight on just about everyone.The airflow design makes it simply to breath through your nose of your mouth, and the silicon lining ensures that there will no water breaches.

Value:

This model does cost a little bit more than some of the other designs out there on the market, but the quality of materials, the innovative design, and the function of the Wildhorn Outfitters design will ensure that this will be the only one that you might ever have to buy.

Summary:

If you have the little bit of extra money to spend and you want to get something that you won’t have to fuss with once you put it on and pop into the water for the afternoon, this model is going to be your best bet to ensure that you have the best time in the water.

Design:

This is offered in four color choices: solid black, black and blue, solid blue, and clear and purple. It is available in two different sizes so that it is easier to find a model that fits your face perfectly. The head strap starts at the bottom of the design and run upwards on your head so that it doesn’t press on your head and cause any discomfort.

Functionality:

As with any good model, you want to be able to inhale comfortablely, as well as exhale, without adding any extra pressure on your head (or else you will feel compelled to take it off frequently). The buoyant ball at the end of the breathing tube creates a tight suction when submerged to prevent any water from dripping down into the tube and getting into your eyes.

It also has a feature that prevents the inside of the unit from fogging up when you exhale. This feature is great because there is nothing worse than popping up to the surface because you can’t see anything through foggy glass. It also utilizes separate airways to make breathing easier and less labored.

Value:

The cost of this unit is a little less expensive than some of the higher end models, but it doesn’t have a lot of the design options as some of the others out on the market. If you are looking for something solid that won’t break the bank- this is an excellent choice.

Summary:

With all of the features that come with this item such as a nice nylon drawstring carrying case, a GoPro mount, and a face that is made from high quality materials- this is an excellent choice. The one thing that we should note, however, is that it doesn’t have many sizing options, so some users might find that it doesn’t fit as perfectly on their head as others.

Design:

There isn’t a lot of choices when it comes to the SeeReef model. It is only available in a glossy solid black with a sharp blue head strap. What makes this model a little bit different (and arguably more effective) is that it generally has a larger build than many of its other competitors on the market. The breathing tube and the intake value is significantly bigger than most.

Functionality:

The larger design isn’t just for looks, it serves a very specific purpose. A longer breathing valve allows you to bob on the surface while being submerged just a little bit deeper than some of the other designs, and it also allows for you to stay submerged under water longer without the need for coming up for air. The longer value also makes it fog-free. Another smart design features is that is the glass surface is flat. Sometimes, when they are beveled they will cause a little bit of a distortion, but the flat design allows you to see everything just as it is.

Value:

The cost of this model is one of its best features, and it comes at a pretty low price point. It will likely set you back the same amount of money you would spend on lunch for you and a friend after a relaxing afternoon of swimming in the ocean.

Summary:

If you just wanted something simple the gets the job done- this is going to be your best bet. It isn’t available in many sizes- so finding that perfect fit might be a problem, and it doesn’t come with the addition of a GoPro mount.

Design:

In addition to the many color choices, it also comes in more size options that range from adult sizes to child sizes to ensure that everyone gets a nice and secure fit.

Functionality:

The most important thing that you want out of these products is to keep water out of your eyes and allow minimal pressure that would make your head feel uncomfortable. The breathing tube seals up tight when you dive down under the water and ensures that no water will get in and sting your eyes or make the viewfinder blurry.

It also has a mount for an action camera so you can show all of your friends at home all of the fun adventures that you went on during your tropical vacation this summer. A purchase of this product also comes with a drawstring waterproof bag, a waterproof cellphone bag, and a few anti-fogging wipes.

It is only available in three different sizes- small, large, and extra large- so finding the perfect for you may be a little more difficult.

Functionality:

If you can’t breath while skimming the surface- than it isn’t a very good product. This unit uses the standard buoy ball technology that allows you to breath comfortable while swimming along the surface, and as soon as you dive down the ball sucks into place to keep water from entering the breathing tube. The tube is design so that is uses two separate chambers from inhaling and exhaling, so that there is less of a risk that the inside will become foggy.

No one likes foggy lenses, because it means you have to take your mask of in the middle of the water and try to dry it off. It has a GoPro mount, but what makes this design different is that it is able to be detached if not in use.

Functionality:

Any quality product needs to do three things while in use: it needs to allow you to easily breathe while on top of the water, it needs to keep water out of your eyes, and it should preferably have a device in place to limit fog when you exhale. This unit does all of those things, and it does them quite well. The anti-fog device that looks like a mini fan on both sides of your nose is built to draw your breath away from the viewfinder so you always have a perfect view of the ocean. The breathing tube is just a little bit longer than most, so you can hover over the surface easier without worrying about going too deep. The straps also affix to your skull vertically, causing less pressure points and distributing the tension more evenly.
