EZ Hi-Viz 6.5'' Wide Scuba Diving Surface Marker Buoy (SMB) Safety Sausage

Highly visible and very durable. Material is a little stiff. This makes it slightly more difficult to use as it sinks quickly while you're trying to inflate it. Just takes a bit of practice.

Can confirm this SMB is open at the bottom, so you can easily inflate with your octo underwater, during your safety stop. Large size, so may not fit in your BCD pocket and may require a clip to a D-ring. Seems very durable. Will most likely tie a 5m line with a weight at the end so I can inflate and release.

Deployed fine and was easily visible, however, the elastic that keeps it rolled up broke on the first dive!!!! 1 time use is all you get. Had to get creative to keep it closed for the second dive.Okay product. If it wasn't for the elastic breaking so soon, it would be a 5 star.

The little bungee broke the first time diving, other than that it it a good little lift bag. I am ordering a second.

Seem to be well constructed. Like the open bottom design hard to find this feature anymore. Easy to deflate and stow away!

Luckily I haven't had to sure this. I gave it 5 stars because it is very bright and it is long with a reflector.I feel confident that I will be seen should I ever have to use it.

just what I was looking for

Too bulky and big for my liking. It doesn't fill up all the way before it starts pulling to much and you have to let it fly.
