Default Isolating Manifolds

Following on from my earlier thread, the scubapro, mde, halycon are
mentioned,but what about the apex one?

Coming from a top reg manufacturer it should be fine, but is it?

TIA

The last comment I heard about Apeks manifolds was "look at them and they
bend". I'm not sure if thats true or not but I would rather stick with
ScubaPro or MDE myself

No. - Old ones had a nasty ratchet mechanism that was prone to failure, it
has plastic knobs - yuk! and dependant on the sizing - far too many failure
points.

No.

Have watched friends buy these; and have had to return every
single one of them. Apeks tries replacements again and again,
but this POS is just dangerous.

I say this about very few pieces of dive equipment; but this
is just beyond any hope. Forget you ever saw it.

To apeks, if you read this : you should really recall this
product. Really. It brings in severe doubts about the quality
of your company.
