" ... The very first day I wore these goggles, literally, as I was putting them over my head, the plastic bridge on the left side snapped in half. ... "
" ... The silicone material used for the eye piece is poor quality! ... "
" ... Then the silicone gasket that lines the eye pieces stiffened and bent out of shape. ... "
" ... These are supposed to be "Outer Eye Fit" but I guess it doesn't matter what kind I use (I've used both "inner-eye" and "outer-eye" style goggles), they still leave me with deep under-eye marks for 24 hours after using them. ... "
" ... i ordered for my 4years son.after 30 minutes using scratches . ... "
" ... Just stayed 10 mins in Sauna, it got melted at nose holder and broke into two. ... Very cheap material! ... "

" ... My only complaint is that the lens surface tends to trap air bubbles as I swim laps. ... "
" ... The lens is completely blurry. ... "
" ... and now I am left with scratches on the lenses. ... "
" ... I am also not crazy about the tinted lens. ... "
" ... Don't touch or wile inside off lenses or you will mess up antifog coating. ... "
" ... Don't touch the lenses. ... "
" ... BUT the WORST part is there is a film on the lenses that won't come off! ... "
" ... Just after the first couple of uses, there is some sort of film on the lenses, making the view very foggy and distorted. ... Then one of the lenses started to crack and slowly expand into a larger crack. ... The only good thing was that they fit comfortably, but if the lenses are going to get a film on them and start to crack with extremely mild use, don't both wasting your money or time with them. ... "
