Having read this thread it seems to me that, as with many things, a lot of the comments are subjective and rightly so.
For me, I trained in a regular BCD and having qualified, my son who is a technical diver made me a present of a Halcyon Eclipse BP&W set up. My dive instructor recommended I sell it immediately but as it was a gift, I used it and I have to say I found the whole experience liberating.
I have since added the Halcyon Cinch system which makes it, well, a cinch to get in and out of.
But; this is my experience and what works for me may not work for you. So find you own thing but most of all be safe and enjoy your diving.
