Feels great and protected from a nasty boarding a couple weeks back. Thanks Bauer!

Definitely recommended!

Great helmet. Fits perfect, easily adjustable, light weight and comfortable. I used to have a medium size CCM but went with the small Bauer based on the measurements of this helmet. Definitely recommended.

Comfortable protection

I got this a few weeks agoand have been happy since the first use. Easily and quickly adjustable for the right fit is really easy.

Nothing special

It’s very comfortable and actually fits my head because I have a wide head. But the padding inside feels so cheap the way it is designed. For the money I spent I expected better quality on that part. I’ve seen $50 helmets that the padding was more secure than this one

Good for large round heads

I wear a size 8 hat, and this helmet in a Large fits perfectly. I think this works better for rounder heads as well (as opposed to more oval). This product is discontinued, but I found this helmet was more comfortable than its replacement. Hopefully, by the time I need a new helmet, there will be another one that offers the same/better protection but with a better fit.

It's very light. Field of view thru cage is excellent. Love it!

More adjustable = more comfortable

Daughter says it is much more comfortable than the 75, which both of my kids complained about the entire time we owned them.

Excellent helmet; very comfortable; easy to adjust

I bought this helmet to replace my old Reebok 10K. The Bauer RE-AKT Hockey Helmet Combo is very comfortable and fit well. The adjustments were easy to use. Visibility with the cage is very good.

Comfortable and supportive. The memory foam blend inside provides comfort and a tight, secure fit that contours your head.

Money well spent!

My son is a Freshman and is still growing. We replaced his “Pumpkin Protector” a few weeks ago and he loves it! I wouldn’t have any other brand/product.

Great helmet but pricey

I've been wearing this helmet for more than a year and its held up very well. I've used a lot of Bauer helmets that after about a year the padding starts to fall out. I was about to try a different brand and decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did. The fit is the best I've ever had and the helmet is so lite and breathes well. I never feel like I am over heating.

Best ever

I took two hits into the boards. The first hit scared my family. Doc said I was okay but sat me out for two weeks as a precaution. About six months later, I hit the boards, got the wind knocked out of me, and slammed my back but my head was okay!

Best protection

Waste of Time

Bought this helmet today. When I got home and looked into the mirror, it is very bulky. Not even sideways, but straight up. I now know how Matt Hendricks feels looking ridiculous with his helmet halfway off his head. I don't see how this would be protective at all, it looks like it's made for a conehead. Usually Bauer makes great helmets, don't know why the Re-Akt is such a huge… read more disappointment.

Love it

This helmet fits like a glove and is super light. I tried on pretty much every helmet out there and nothing felt like the re-akt. Yeah the e700 is a little lighter, but the easton is a one piece shell and doesn't adjust to your head like the re-akt. The e700 felt like a bike helmet and not a hockey helmet. I have used this helmet for a couple months now and I can say it was worth… read more the money. I get a lot of complements on the bucket too. Looks great with my easton visor. They run a little big so I got the medium, I wear a hat size 7 1/8

Not what you might expect...

While this helmet provides excellent protection, the fit is all together different than any and all of the previous helmets from Bauer. And not in a good way, respectively. For those who bought the 9500 and regretted it, the reasons why were addressed with the 9900 in short order, meaning a helmet that fit a fairly wide array of head shapes. And easily adjusted to do so...my guess… read more would be that this will see a quick follow up in the line to address the awkward fit. I own the 9900 but wanted something with more secure padding, the adhesive is breaking down from sweat. The helmet that most addressed this while keeping to a more universal fit, and agreed upon by those with me while trying them on was the reebok 11k. Bummer.... I really like the 9900 and was looking forward to the new kid on the block.

Great helmet

This helmet has excellent sizing adjustments, will conform to almost any size head. The quality of the internal padding works very well. I have taken several hits to head and hit boards, hardly felt a thing. Bauer has come up with another great product with excellent protection.

The new standard for helmets

Comments: My original helmet was never very comfortable, and I suspected the protection wasn't the greatest either. Decided to upgrade, so I did some research on the Bauer Reakt. It seemed like it had a lot of great features, so I went for it. Now, I'll preface this by saying I've only worn it twice, but WOW - what a difference from my old CCM! So comfortable and a breeze to adjust.… read more I especially like the occipital 3.0 feature. It's so easy, you can do a quick adjust while sitting on the bench, waiting for your next shift! The memory foam is not just marketing hype - it really works! Again, I've only worn it in a couple of games, but I can feel it getting more comfortable with each use. I bought the helmet/cage combo - definitely great sight lines with the cage. I never feel like there's a blind spot and the titanium cage is very light. Overall, a wonderful helmet. They say that skates are the most important equipment, but the helmet has to be a close second place. Highly recommended!
