One hell of a mask.... From a Cave Diver..
I felt compelled to write this review because this is an absolutely excellent mask without a doubt. This review is my own review after using this mask quite a few times in Florida caves. I am a cave diver and nearly every weekend I go cave diving since I only live an hour an a half from cave country. All of my gear is high end as I like to buy the best and this is why I need to write about this mask. I own many high end masks from Atomic to Mares etc, masks fit faces differently; I had a hard time finding the right mask for me, double lenses is out of the question as all double lens masks I have tried just hurt the bridge of my nose or leak. It does not mean the masks I have bought suck, just means for me it is hard to find a good mask. So, to the meat and potatoes.. I came across this single lens mask and the looks was very attractive, the price at $27 you cannot beat it so I read the reviews and watch a video a older gentleman made, decided to order one mask and holy *$U@#% it felt amazing. Took it down to Ginnie springs the next time I went cave diving (of course I brought my other masks just in case) the mask worked amazing and felt amazing. Having said that I now I have bought 5 more of this mask. Why 5 more? Well very few times you come across a product that is well made, works flawlessly for me, and is at an amazing price. So, before the quality goes to s*** or the engineers that designed this mask decide to make unnecessary changes I will buy few more. It really is an amazing mask. Forgot to mention it held extremely well in a high flow cave like Little River, for those of you who have no idea what high current or high flow is ... take my word for it.The company did not give me a discount for my review; this is my own review after using the masks in many different caves. Although, I hope they give me a discount on my next purchase as I am planning to buy couple of more. I actually gave one of the mask I purchase to one of my cave buddies, he now uses that mask as his primary mask for all of his dive, his other mask now is the back up mask.Hope this review helps some of you out there looking at this product. Thanks to Denis for making that video on his review.To James Rail (The owner), hell of a product and thanks for the prompt shipping.Carlos

Good fit, great field of vision, great price!
I wanted some snorkel gear since we are living in Baja every winter now. I bought the Atomic Venom first for $169 thinking that I should pay up for a top quality mask. I wanted to like it but it leaked a bit like every mask I have ever had. The field of view seemed constricted somehow and it was not particularly comfortable either. For that money I would never have been happy with it. Since I had bought a Kraken snorkel at the same time and it worked great on my test swim so I decided to try their mask as well especially after these good reviews.It's a winner, very comfortable fit and field of vision, the silicone is great. It has a frame unlike the Venom but so what? It's more comfortable on my face. Like every mask I have ever tried the inner seal does not quite fit the right side of my face but it doesn't seem to matter with this mask, it seals quite well on the outer seal. Now I am set for Baja this winter and also getting $141 back. I'm very happy I tried this mask.

excellent quality mask
I bought two of these right before we went on vacation in the Carribean, and I thought they were of excellent quality. (I also bought two of their dry snorkels, which worked well for us.)The mask worked well for me, although I had to use some antifogging spray made with baby shampoo occasionally while snorkeling. (I carried a small spray bottle in the pocket of my snorkeling vest.)My husband has a thick mustache and couldn't get a good seal with the mask because of it, so he wound up using swim goggles for snorkeling since the mustache didn't matter with goggles. I'd read an idea online about using vaseline in the mustache to attempt to get a good seal with the mask, but he didn't like that idea, which turned out to be a good thing we didn't try that (see below).The Kraken company sent an email inquiry asking if the equipment was all right, so I responded with some questions about the fogging and the mustache problem when we got back from the trip. Kraken's owner replied, with some good advice that I'll copy below in case it will help others.Fogging:"When purchasing a new snorkeling mask, it is important to pre-treat your mask. Pre-treating your mask will help minimize fogging if not eliminate it. Even though you’ve already used your mask, you can still do the pre-treatment to help minimize fogging for future snorkeling. A very common method of pre-treating a mask is by using some toothpaste to treat it. Use some common white non-gritty, non-minty toothpaste. Avoid gel toothpaste as well. Take a thimble-sized amount of toothpaste and rub it on both sides of the lens while the lens is dry. With clean fingers, give it a good circular rubbing motion and cover the entire lens on both sides. Then rinse the lens while rubbing away the toothpaste. It can sometimes be difficult to remove the toothpaste around the edges but just use more water pressure or you can simply use a wet washcloth to clean it off. Once the toothpaste is rinsed away, dry the lens completely with a clean towel or rag. Repeat these steps a few times drying the lens in between each application. This should give you a good pre-treatment. For your next trip, I would pick up some good quality anti-fog spray/gel. There are some good options on Amazon.com that aren't very expensive. Some people find that their eyes are sensitive to these anti-fog spray/gels so it may or may not work for you or your husband. Some people choose to use alternative methods such as their own spit or even baby shampoo. It's up to you what to use but whichever method you choose, be sure to do it before you use the mask for the day and also be sure not to touch the lens after application. Do all this and your mask should give you a very clear view with no fogging while in the water. There is nothing more frustrating than a mask that is fogging up so it is certainly worth a little bit of effort up front." (from the Kraken email)I've since read the toothpaste suggestion on a Hawaiian dive company's web site, but it wasn't explained nearly as well.The mustache issue:"As you know, the leaking mask was almost certainly a result of your husband’s mustache not allowing the mask to make a proper seal. I can certainly understand your husband not wanting to put vaseline in his mustache. :) Using vaseline might help some but certainly won’t fix the problem. Also, using vaseline is known to damage silicone mask skirts so I wouldn’t really recommend using it.To answer your questions, I think you were on the right track with using some swimming goggles for your husband. I would recommend finding some good quality googles that have a silicone skirt along with some nose clips. They are kind of a mix between a swimming goggle and a snorkeling mask. This won’t work as well as a snorkeling mask but will be better than regular swimming goggles and give your husband the best chance at having a better snorkeling experience without shaving or trimming his mustache. Unfortunately we don’t offer this type of mask at this time but we do plan to offer something in early 2016." (from the Kraken email)I've since seen online the type of goggles with the silicone skirt that he's talking about, but I think I'll wait to get some. I'm impressed with Kraken's quality with the mask and snorkel, so I'll wait to get the goggles and will check to see if Kraken is selling them by the time we're planning another trip.
