Way Cool for kids!
I bought this for my 6 year old grand daughter to teach her how to snorkel in our swimming pool so she would be ready when we went to the ocean. This snorkel is made out of high quality materials, does not work or feel like a toy snorkel set. She has used this snorkel at least 4-5 times a week since she received it and we have had no problems with it at all. The storage bag helps keep the snorkel out of the elements when not in use. My granddaughter has a large amount of hair and still has no problem maintaining a good face seal. Snorkel also works as it should in keeping out water when under the water. I would not hesitate for a minute to buy this for another child. The one thing I would suggest with ANY snorkel mask for a girl, is to purchase a neoporene mask strap cover so the back of the strap does not pull on their hair when putting on and taking off. It makes any mask more comfortable and enjoyable to use.

Great mask and even better customer service!
I purchased one for my daughter for Easter and for my niece a couple weeks ago. They had company over not even a week after she received and the little boy dropped by accident and the mask shattered. I contacted Wacool and they were great! Sent out a new mask free of charge. Thank you so much Wacool for the amazing customer experience and mending my nieces broken heart after her new mask was ruined.

I got the bad one ...
As an engineer involved in the manufacturing of things, I understand that every now and then a bad item hits the market.My little daughter happened to be the recipient of this item ... it would be her first time snorkeling and when we first tried this in the pool, she was "daddy, water comes into my mouth". I was thinking that she was perceiving the few expected water droplets as uncomfortable, but when I tried it myself, WHOA, I almost got a mouthful of water. My own snorkel worked fine (different brand/model, for adults), and I DO know how to use a snorkel quite efficiently by the way ...The problem was that the bottom valve was probably not always seating correctly, so, at some of my breaths I would get a lot of water in ... so, we were just so upset that we threw the whole set at a nearby dumpster, and bought her a new snorkel set from a local store.There are usually three phases in the manufacturing of things, that lead to good quality: Design, manufacturing and quality control. I cannot say which one of those three failed in my case, but it did.

Not bad, but you can do better
I bought two sets of these for my 6 and 8 year old daughters before going to hawaii. The masks worked out well, but the snorkel didn't. The tempered glass in the mask provided a flawless view of the coral and fish (when combined with anti-fog!). After a few hours my kids were completely comfortable with their use. The snorkels were too short: when my kids would look around, the end would dip under the water. All snorkels collect water at the bottom -- they're impossible to completely purge. However this type of snorkel allows the water to gurgle as you breath -- which is an unnerving feeling for the kids. I happened to bring along my scuba snorkel, which has an extension reservoir under the mouth piece; this prevents the gurgling sound. I ended up throwing away the snorkel, and letting my kids use my snorkel.

Will buy another yellow one for my daughter's birthday.
Our family went on a trip a week ago. The beach was beautiful and diving was a must. This is a gift for my son. He likes it very much. Thank you.

As good as expected!
Fins are not as good as expected but the mask and snorkel are very nice. Used it in Jamaica numerous times snorkeling both day and night.

Not worth the money
Update 7/21/19: These ended up being perfect for my 8 year old son. He's been using them constantly all summer. Which is great. Until today. He jumped in the pool & the glass shattered. Thankfully the inside has a protective layer & his eyes were safe, but he has a small egg on his head in between his eyes. Amazon customer service is always amazing. I was told this isn't a normal thing & their sending a replacement. I'll update my review as he uses them.I bought these for my 6 year old daughter. I've spent so much $ on goggles its crazy. I was hoping these would be it. They're not. She gets water in the nose piece. I give up. Save yourself money & just go to your local dive shop & get a good pair. They're custom fit & last forever.
