Hi, I am interested in getting these for my twin set. If you are a user, are you happy? How many have had problems with their HOG regulators?
Are HOG regulators good or problem?

No problems and they route nicely for doubles.
No issues with my D1 & D3 1sts, Classic & Zenith 2nds, as singles or doubles
We have D1 firsts, Classic and Zenith seconds. They are my wife's and daughter's cold water regs.
I have a D2/Zenith on a pony, and Zeniths on my SP MK-17 single tank set too.
I like them. Have had them for years. We've had no problems with them at all. I'm also holding the HOG Repair Certification, and do my own service.

HOG had a problem several years ago with their DIN regulators; the chrome plating on the posts was too thick. Thus, every time you removed the DIN post from a tank, boing!, the post o-ring went flying. HOG has fixed that problem, so although I'd avoid used HOG regs, new ones should be reliable.

I owned a set a few years back, well, many years back. I only bought them out of curiosity. I had no issues, I did notice they breathed a little harder at depth than my Apeks.

I have had a D2 first stage and Zenith second stage on my pony bottle for almost a decade, no problems. I wish I had the repair cert so I could service them myself but it's not offered here, in any case it's not tough it expensive to send it in for a quick service. I'd recommend these regulators to any that ask.
I have 5 sets with about 400 dives on them. No problems at all
I'm eight dives into my D3 Zenith Smokes. No problems at all and the adjustment knobs seem to give decent control. The only thing I've done is add a swivel for my primary. Me and my HOG gear this week (on air and in fresh water):
