I recently purchased the Problue Orion BCD, and it has been a game-changer for my diving adventures! The construction quality is top-notch, with a sturdy 600 denier polyester exterior and a 420 denier nylon/PU bladder. The three dump-valve system is a convenient feature that allows me to easily vent air and adjust my buoyancy. I’ve taken it on several dives, and it has consistently performed without any issues. The only thing I wish it had was a bit more storage space for my gear.

I’m not sure if I’d recommend this BCD to others, as it doesn’t quite live up to its price tag. The material seems a bit flimsy, and the dump-valve system can be a bit finicky. However, it does get the job done, and the adjustable shoulder straps are a nice touch. Perhaps if they made some quality-control adjustments, this BCD would be a real contender in the market.

This BCD exceeded my expectations in terms of durability and performance. I’ve used it in a variety of water conditions, and it has handled everything with ease. The weight distribution is well-balanced, making it comfortable to wear for extended periods. One thing to note is that the manual dump valve can be a bit tricky to operate at first, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes second nature. Overall, I’d highly recommend this BCD to anyone in the market for a reliable and feature-rich product!

I’ve noticed that the construction quality of this BCD is top-notch, but I’m wondering what kind of maintenance routine it requires to keep it in tip-top shape? Does it need regular cleaning or inspections to ensure it continues to perform optimally?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your review of the Problue Orion BCD! We’re glad to hear that you’re satisfied with its construction quality. To maintain your BCD in top shape, we recommend regular cleaning and inspections. For the outer material, you can use a soft-bristled brush to wipe away dirt and debris. For the bladder, which is made of 420 denier nylon and PU material, we suggest using lukewarm water and a mild soap solution, avoiding any harsh chemicals. After cleaning, you can leave the BCD to air dry to prevent water spots. Additionally, we recommend inspecting the BCD regularly for any signs of wear and tear, such as cracks or damage to the dump valves or inflator. If you notice any issues, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re always here to help.
