NIOSH Approved N95 Mask Particulate Respirators, Pack of 20 N95 Face Masks, Individually Wrapped, Universal Fit

These masks are not the cheapest, but I think they’re worth the price. Surprisingly, they don’t tell you that it slips over your head as opposed to hooking on your ears. That’s great for me because I wear hearing aids and the ones that hook to your ears don’t work very well for me. So I was pleasantly surprised, but some people might like the description to be more specific. The masks are well-made and it looks like the straps won’t snap very easily since there are little plastic pieces that hold them. The material is a good thickness and the nose clips are comfortable with a small piece of foam covering them. In summary, these are good masks at a reasonable price.

I like these better than the other brands with the flat front. They fit my face contours , and are comfortable to wear for longer projects. I didn't notice anything getting through. At this price point, these will be my go-to brand.

I liked the fact that it is a well made mask. It fits good. It is a little tight in the face and the straps aren’ t great, but the protection is very good. It’s not that comfortable and it does tend to fog up if you wearing glasses.

Product does great with protecting your breathing in of particles. Easy to wear great fit

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this mask. I am super-fussy about most things (my nickname is "princess and the pea" haha). I am also super-sensative about smells, discomfort, etc. This mask is SO comfortable whether you wear as instructed (head bands) or use the hack I am going to share. Let me start by saying that I am a high-risk cancer patient with CKD and I must avoid COVID at all costs. I also have high-risk elderly parents that I want to protect. So a tight seal around my nose and mouth is critical. The common paper surgical masks do not offer the seal that will protect me or others. This mask is COMFORTABLE. It is light but sturdy, folds flat, but not flimsy, individually wrapped so I can carry spares for myself or to share others when needed. I wondered what the green clips were for and almost didn't order because I thought they were ugly. (White clip option would be amazing). But once I received I had an ah-ha moment. The clips allow you to adjust the elastic length to your head, a rare feature not found in many other masks. I go to the salon for a weekly blow-out because I can no longer style my own long hair and refuse to cut it off! But authentic N95 masks use headbands, not ear loops (if you have an N95 mask with earloops it is said to be counterfeit, as NIOSH will not approve them with earloops,). Obviously head staps do not work when getting salon services, and I needed a way to wear an N95 mask and still optimize my protection. I need to be able to take down the earloops while getting shampooed and hold the mask in place with my hands and then quickly re-secure the ear loops when the sink service is done. And I want NO GAPS! ***THE HACK *** Those green clips are amazing! You can detach the elastic and reconfigure the mask to work as an ear loop mask. I have tried this with other masks and it doesn't work because the position of the strap doesn't line up with your ears and the mask pops off. But this mask is different. Because those green clips branch the elastic in 2 slightly different directions, there is no issue aligning to your ears and it STAYS IN PLACE WITH A TIGHT SEAL. My husband is I bio-scientist and he helped me test the seal when using ear loop hack and there was virtually no difference in protection, seal, and coverage. I KNOW I KNOW, this is not how an 95 mask should be worn. But if you have a special circumstance or need a short-term solution for ear loops, this is the ONLY mask I could find that accommodates. Regarding all the reviews that mention a strong chemical odor, I do not experience this, even after just unwrapping. I do smell a very mild paper odor, like a sheet of notebook paper, that dissipates after about 30 seconds. I hope this review helps others!!!

Edges were stiff and sharp. Very uncomfortable.

I’ve worn (and repurchased) these all throughout the pandemic and have never had an issue. I prefer these masks compared to an aura n95 because the headband straps are elastic, yet covered with a bit of fabric, and not RUBBER BANDS which to me seem very unsafe!! There’s also no metal staples holding the material together so again I feel more secure with these n95s. I love that they’re bifolds because they fit in my pocket easily too. My biggest issue in finding a reliable n95 throughout the pandemic has been finding one that’s a universal fit for me and my boyfriend so that we’re not spending tons of $$$ on multiple different brands. It also needs to be comfortable and breathable because I’m high risk for covid, so these get a LOT of use from us. Benehal fits these requirements easily- he has a large (long) nose (very hard to fit in most n95s we’ve tried, including flo masks!) with thin cheeks and I have large cheeks with a short nose which has been a nightmare finding n95s that seal properly, except for these benehals. These masks have also worked when we recommend masks to wear for all of our family members flying to visit us for long periods of time (6 hours+ door to door) and we’ve never had anyone complain that they’re uncomfortable or hard to breathe in. The material is thick and I will say if you are doing rigorous activity (hiking, going to the gym), it can be a bit harder to breathe. But for casual wear, these are great. Again, I’ve used these masks for nearly 4 years now and I LOVE them. I always get the white versions and have never tried the black ones- maybe I should! Hope this helps!

Good quality
