    Advantages Advantages good all round performance

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can't really mount it from any side without difficulty

    ......but I will stick with my poseidons. I have always dived with Poseidon regs unless I have been borrowing kit (due to mine being serviced) and have always been very happy with. However there was a point in time when everybody I knew was buying an Abyss reg and ranting and raving on about it. So for a brief while I dived with 2 Abyss' instead of my poseidons. I hated them!! They were extreamly easy to breathe off and worked very well, the only thing i didn't like was the way the air entered my mouth. With every breath it seemed that I was getting ice cold air bombarding my front teeth ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy breathing, excellent build

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not cheap

    On a recent dive, I was able to lay my hands on this beaut. This was the first times I had used a Mares reg., though the companies excellent reputation gave me a good feeling about it. The MR22 Diaphragm First stage features the DFC (Dynamic Flow Control) system and a replaceable HP seat connector. The HP seat is designed for a 2 year/200 dive service interval; double the standard seat life! The Abyss Second stage with its Vortex Assisted Design system is made of nickel and chrome plated Brass This offers a number of benefits: ruggedness, thinner walls, reduced water drag. There is also a good ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy breathing, looks great

    Disadvantages Disadvantages weights a bit

    Although not my choice of regulator set, my most frequent dive buddy has got himself an MR22 set and being the inquisitive, safety conscious buddy that I am I insisted in making absoloutely sure that his rig was safe! My immediate thought upon picking it up was "****** this is heavy!" - BUT I hasten to add that a huge factor when I chose my set was weight (for reasons I won't go into I needed a balance of high performance with ultra light weight). For your info: 1st stage - 1140g Second stage - 274g Abyss octopus - 270g This reg set was brilliant though - it's solid and can certainly take a ... more

    5 Stars Quick review of Mares MR 22 Abyss by Paolo66 08/02/2009
    I am using two Abyss since ages...never had any problem...for what is concerning the teeth problem, maybe that is an enamel problem : a visit to a local dentist might help ! Never heard this kind of issue with a reg before, Paolo
