But the quality of material is shit and will crack and fade in a year out in the weather. Have also heard they don't like the cold either. The plastic they use is very low quality compared to safari.
Speculation or fact?
Can you point to units that have failed or regurgitating third hand here say?
Don't get me wrong I am not having a go at yourself - as much as it would seem. It's a keyboard thing. I just like to see that statements are backed up with facts.
Buy Australian? I would but so many factors that are not worth going into in an unrelated thread have destroyed Australian manufacturing and forced the costs of Australian products beyond what is reasonable.
Without facts to back up your statements there is no reason not to assume that the two products don't come out of the same factory and that Safari snorkels dont just have a die insert that stamps them with they're trade mark.
