I've been very happy with my Scubapro Ladyhawk for a number of years. It's about ready for replacement on my end only because I got some pinch leaks in it (that are probably my own fault).
That said, Scubapro has quit producing Ladyhawk. On the one hand, it's difficult to find a brand new one but on the other, if you do, price is reduced!
I'd like a brand new Ladyhawk but wouldn't hesitate to buy used after checking condition. My current Ladyhawk still looks almost new despite its age and many hundreds of dives on her. Last year, I changed out the corrugated hose assembly. As it turned out, that assembly was not the problem but I actually like the replacement better, so stuck with it.
I love the weight release system and the pockets. I like the Scubapro tank latch system though because of the way that I wear my tank, would be happier with two straps but really not a big deal at all.
