What do you want to know, specifically? They are as well made and regarded as any other neoprene suit on the planet, having been made for over 40 years. Not sure what the Vesta model is.
yknot:
It is the Women model. I would like to know if everyone is happy with it. Is it comfortable in the water? Easy to adapt to? It is my first dry suit.... I would like to know if I am choosing the right one.... I can not try one (diving) before buying so I wanted to hear your expiriences.
Thanks.

It's a good suit but I don't recommend it to you unless you often dive in very cold water. The material is as thick as 5mm and it means it is too warm in "relatively" or "somehow" cold water. Of course, you must wear much weight.

Try the link above, give them a call and see if they have any end of line or new types that they want to sell off.

With any Poseidon suit you are going to have a neoprene neck seal. When properly fitted they are very comfortable and as water tight as latex but will likely require some assistance when putting on. It may not be the suit for you unless you have dive buddies or a local instructor familiar with the dive charachteristics of neoprene. As also mentioned, these suits aren't the best for 60 degree water on a 80 degree day. They are good for 38 degree water on a 20 degree day, however.
