Cressi regulators are very well made. The only drawback in the US is a limited dealer base. Any good regulator tech can maintain the Cressi brand with no problem. If you are traveling to Europe you will find many Cressi regs in use.

redhatmama:I'm sure you know this Fish, but smaller, lighter, and prettier? are not good reasons to buy a regulator.
Pretty regs say Apeks.
LOL! Yes... I know. Another reason is that in pitching seas in Cozumel, trying to walk to the back of the boat with fins on, (god, that sucked!) the boat pitched and I dropped my reg and then stepped on it, busting the exhaust off of it. I was able to reattach it, but I wasn't real pleased about it. I did the rest of my dives using my octopus until I had time to sit down and work on it.
And to be honest, "smaller and lighter" ARE very appealing. I had the chance to try one of the Cressis.. (Not sure what model) and I was pleased with it.
Thanks for all of the info, folks. I apprecieate it.

BTW, who is your local Cressi dealer? Is it the shop in Smyrna? I bought mine online and likely will move before it is up for service, but it'd be good to know where I can bring it.Fish_Whisperer:

For what it's worth, their dealer list is here: http://cressisub.it/dealer_usa.php
Not a huge number of dealers, but probably 200-300 across the country.
