Used the Mares Prestige Octopus on my recent dives around Tioman—breathing was smooth at all depths and the yellow colour makes it super easy to spot. The hose is flexible without feeling flimsy.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you, Wei Ming, for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear that the Mares Prestige Octopus performed well during your dives and that its visibility and hose flexibility met your expectations.
Aisha Rahim –
Is the mouthpiece on this octopus suitable for people with smaller jaws? Sometimes I get jaw fatigue when diving for long periods.

Hi Aisha, the Mares Prestige Octopus comes with a soft, anatomically designed mouthpiece intended to reduce jaw fatigue, even during longer dives. Many divers with smaller jaws have found it comfortable, but we recommend trying it with your regulator set if possible.
Ganesh Rajan –
Happy with the durability so far—been using it for training dives and the purge button is easy to operate even with gloves. Slightly bulkier than my old octopus, but performance is excellent.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your feedback, Ganesh. We’re pleased the purge button and overall performance have met your needs, and we’ll share your comment about the bulk with our product team for consideration.
