Mares Pure SLS

[Khazar]

I am considering to get the Mares Pure SLS.
I see some good word of it.
Is it still great to get as of now?
What I look for is the back inflated that also have the shoulder dump valve which I like to have, and this thing is also have some rigidity for the back. Is that actually needed? cuz it make it a bit heavier for travel.

Thanks.

Both my local dive shops are Mares dealers, so most of my gear is Mares. There BC's are big and bulky and 40lbs of lift is way more than you need. I would look at this BC. 32 lb (14.5 kg) IQ Lite Performance Mono

I have no any local store that sell OMS gear. Have only like Mares, Scubapro, Aqualung, Cressi
So, not sure about warranty and maintenance issue.
