Most people on here like your product Mr Gecko. Certianly the 2nd hand ones always sell quickly, which would seam a good indication of popularity.

Since I now have a cabin rib, mine are safely tucked away. I suppose we could say for a rainy day

Well Sir, now that you're here, "good evening". Great product.
My Gecko doesn't allow my right ear to drain after immersion.....in fact it lets the water in perfectly and then keeps it there as long as the lid stays on. Any mods? Tried all the sizes and the only one that fits does this. Used all the available ones of the same size and they all do that. Admittedly it was only four.
Get a new ear you'll say. Everybody else has. There has to be a less traumatic solution.

In response to the individuals who still find the MK10 fully deflated a snug fit we have the MK11 which has a sizing range of 56cm-63cm. Hopefully you feel this one will fit more comfortable and as we now have a softer liner it should keep you even happier.

I sorry to hear you ear is getting wet, and im not sure which model you have but we had moved to a one size shell around 8 years ago which should resolve this issue as long as the ear inserts are retained. If you have a friend with a newer model please try theres and feel your ear should stay dry and there will not need for a new ear.
