I dive a D7 pro ISS.

The good:
It is a very rugged suit that will likely last a very long time.
The silicon seals are easy to replace can be done on the boat in an emergency.

The bad:
It's expensive you could probably get a custom suit for the same money. I'm tall and thin and needed the XL to accommodate my height which left a lot of room to grow in the middle.
The Cordura material that makes it so rugged is very stiff and heavy. But again it's tough!
The neck ring digs into your collarbone when standing on the surface but underwater you don't notice.
I had a zipper leak after 2 years that required replacement around 70 dives. It seemed premature to me but I'm no expert.

Overall a great suit but I think for the money you can do better.
