Aeris Caribe BCD

Any feedback on the Aeris Caribe BCD?
Wife and I are newbies, certified in March and I want to buy a nice no frills BCD for her.
She's a tiny thing so this seemed to be a decent fit as scubatoys has it in XS.

I purchased one about a month ago got a few dives on it, its a nice simple BCD no frills but it gets the job done, it's about the same as the older model of the oceanic ocean reef pro bcd.
For the money its a great deal.

I bought my wife the tusa reef tourer conquest bc from ST... Its a simple almost no-frills bc, but it does have integrated weight pockets that work well, and is of excellent construction... Its a little more expensive, but imo, weight integration is worth it...

If she is that small make sure she tries it on and maybe dives with it. Smaller women have some problems getting good fit IMO.

I agree 100% with the advice to make sure it fits before you buy.

I have one and it works fine.

For hard to fit folks I often suggest a backplate and wing. It is very adjustable to any size and not dependant on a manufacturer making "your size".
