Cressi Lightest Travel Scuba Diving BCD - Folds Completely to Save Space - Fully Accessorised: 8 D-Rings, 2 Wide Side Pockets, 2 Rear Trim Pockets - High Lift Capacity - Travelight: Designed in Italy

I Love how packable this bcd is. This is my second one. And I’m glad I purchased this: long info: bought my first one in 2019 as I prepped for an Egypt dive trip. Packed great. Functioned great. The cons were the pockets. So far back with zipper oriented from back to front using the pockets was problematic. But I made it work with zip ties extending the zipper handles. I used it a lot also in Channel Islands. Great bcd.COVID dampered my diving a lot and while prepping recently for a trip that was originally planned for 2021 I decided to get the next size up. Per Cressi I was still in the range for the small that I had but I know I gained weight and always felt that I was maxing my bcd as it was before weight gain…. What a difference the medium made!!! Everything else is still the same so I can find all that I need with muscle memory (ie: dump valves etc) And: the pockets now actually work! I think cressi under sizes what you need. I should have had a medium all along.All that to say I’ve purchased it twice and would do it again. I love having my own bcd out of country and this packs so well and still manages the harsh conditions of local diving as well.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Super leightweight (ideal for travel!), well designed and yet sturdy.100% recommendation, especially for divers travelling by plane!

I have completed 14 dives wearing my Cressi Travelight and I couldn’t be happier! It performs perfectly, and is exceptionally easy to pack and travel (flights) to diving destinations! It packs down to a small size (comes with bag for storing when packed), is lightweight, and fits easily in a suitcase. The best part is that it’s easier to dive knowing exactly where all of the necessary components are, every dive, without having to think about it. The bottom air release pull is on the side, slightly forward, for super easy access. My wife rents her BCD and I’ve noticed that almost every BCD has that pull in a different spot, anywhere from the middle of the back to the side. I’ve yet to see, on her BCDs, the pull slightly forward. The integrated weights are perfect! I don’t like weight belts, which a majority of dive shops (where I’ve dived) use. They’re not comfortable at all and are cumbersome. Plus, I save $10 USD on every 2-tank dive, because I have my own equipment. I only need 10lbs in weights to dive, therefore it’s easy for me to pack and travel with my weights, too.If you love to dive, are tired of having to familiarize yourself with the BCD every time you rent one, and want a BCD that’s easy to pack and travel to you dive location, this is the perfect BCD for you!! I highly recommend it!!

I bought two BCD’s for my wife and myself. This is an extremely dangerous product and should never be sold. My wife almost drowned using this product it doesn’t have proper buoyancy. My wife spent three days in the hospital in Mexico and is still being treated by doctors in Dallas. I used the information in the spec sheet to choose the correct BCD. Despite having the BCD fully inflated her head was barely above water and definitely a big issue in choppy seas. This item should never be sold

Inflator hose leaked right out of the box (while out of the country) which could have ruined the trip, but fortunately they had an extra. Also tank buckle is rusting, even when rinsed after each dive day. Have tried to contact Cressi 4x but zero response. While BCD is ok, would recommend going with a company that provides better support.

This is a great travel BCD. Compact and appears to be good quality. Only thing is that it doesn’t have a ridged back tank mounting plate. If you don’t have a strong back this is not for you. If you do and you travel this is perfect

I've use this BCD on 3 travel scuba trips. Nice, light, and seems to do the trick. HOWERVER, now that I need to get this BCD and Cressi regulator and Cressi pressure gauge serviced / cleaned / repaired it is VERY difficult to get any reply emails, messages, and their website Dealer Locator does not show current businesses and service technicians - most closed or no longer servicing Cressi products. Now that I am more experienced and have my own equipment, I wish I knew that SERVICE is the most important thing if you want to use your Cressi products more than 12 months (or if anything goes wrong).

This is a great option if you are traveling with your equipment. It's not too heavy, and is well made. I love it.
