I had a pair of Costa Fathoms that I bought years ago. They had the glass lenses with the "cheater" lenses in the bottom of the main lens. After about 5 years the rubber on the temples disintegrated. I sent them back to Costa asking them to replace them and charge me. I didn't know how long it would take so I bought another pair, a different model, but with the glass cheater lenses, because I liked my Costas so much and needed glases while I waited for my original pair to be returned. Several weeks later (don't recall how long) Costa sent me back a brand new pair of Fathoms with the glass/cheater lenses, no charge! They said they didn't like the way the color of my original lenses had changed. (?) I never had a problem with the lenses and never noticed any change. That's what I call service. I now have 2 pair which will probably last me the rest of my life.
I have no experience with Maui and will not express an opinion on them. If a fellow SC member tells me they're great, I'll accept that. Believing that there can only be one good product, be it polarized sun glasses or pick-up trucks (silly Ford vs. Chevy feud) just doesn't fly with me. I am a realist.
