SHIELDOFGLORY Disposable Respirator Mask 99% Filtration Rate Class 1 - Breathing Valve, Elastic Ear Loop with Ear Rings

I use this mask for outdoor lawn work, mulching leaves and sawing wood. I do not use this mask for medical purposes due to the exhalation vent. If necessary, I can use these masks without using an ear loop extension and not be too bothered with ear loops digging into the back of my ears. I get some fogging of my eyeglasses but only when ambient temperatures are around 65F or below and I’m really working hard outside. Not a big deal if I keep a microfiber cloth in my pocket.

expensive, but very comfortable.

I bought these for my XL husband. Most masks don’t cover his face and look a little silly. These didn’t cover his face but they do cover his nose and don’t leave large gaps so they are good enough. He is wearing them so I assume they are comfortable and he can breath too. I would have giving these masks a 3/5 because they aren’t 3M quality but there are some pretty bad masks out there and these are better than most.

Employees wanted the N95 mask with valve for a weekly task that requires more than a dust mask. This was the first disposable I found that had the valve. The only problem I have with the mask is it accumulates condensate inside the mask which I thought the valve would eliminate. I mean condensate that you can shake out of the mask, not just damp. I did try it all day so for a few hours or such there is no problem. My employees have no complaints. I will repurchase until such time as the 3M brand becomes available to the industries that still need them.

Had to throw one away after one use because the glue holding the loops to the mask failed and they came off. On another the clasp that connects the loops together in the back (behind your head) came loose and shot off ...somewhere, rendering it unusable. This happened on the second use.

I really like this mask. However it’s a little too tight if you use the S hook that is included into loose if you don’t use it. So I tie small knots on either earpiece and it seems to fit excellent! Will buy again.

Package arrived open. You see where the tear/rip opening would be used to open the bag is still intact but the top is and wasn't sealed. Good masks are so expensive and sometimes hard to find and I definitely don't need to wonder and doubt the integrity of whether my "brand new" mask is sterile or not and not been touched by someone else (besides factory machines). Now the hassle of returning.. yay 😑

These look great on paper but are useless for COVID. The nose bridge is not robust enough to create a seal and keep air/breath from escaping the top of the mask. Same goes for the bottom of the mask - though this might be due to the ear loops.This mask would get one or possibly two more stars if it incorporated over the head bands instead of ear loops which do not seal it to your face. Even tying the ear loops behind my neck with the available clasp does not tighten the mask to my face to creat a decent seal.I have cloth masks that sit better on my face.If you are looking for guaranteed protection from COVID (especially with the no more contagious B-117 variant) I highly recommend buying N95 masks from Bonafide Masks.
