Problue brand - Tiara2, Ornata

[Tickie]

hi all,

New to this forum and looking to get your expertise in buying our first mask and snorkel for a trip coming up soon.

We went to a dive shop and the only models in our price range (sub $100) were a problue Tiara 2 dry snorkel set and a problue Ornata set - which both fit us well. Shop assistant assured me brand was good but when I look it up online, I can't even find one user review. Do any of you know more about this brand and models and can tell us more about them? The alternatives that we can buy in time for our trip would be the standard aqualung sets in the usual general sport shops which we can get for half the price...

Thank you in advance!

They look like generic relatively ok quality products. It's not a brand I've heard about being well respected.

A comfortable fit is a very good feature. And that can be a 10$ mask for some people.

Sorry thats all I know.

I'd trust aqualung better personally if they fit comfortably. I see no justification for the higher price looking at those models online.

Perhaps someone else can add a better perspective from experience with them.
