Review on πŸ‘· 3M Comfort Facepiece Reusable Respirator: Optimal Protection for Occupational Health & Safety - Personal Protective Equipment by Danny Rogers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits well, does not fog up glasses, effective against Covid-19

Face masks can pose a dangerous problem if they fog up your glasses. Cloth face masks do not protect the wearer very well from Covid but I agree that if we all wear them it really helps the group. This face mask solves several problems, but it also creates one. This face mask is really great for long-term wear as it fits well and never fogs up your glasses. I can wear it for hours if needed. For protection against the airborne Covid virus I've compared it to the original 3M 2097 filters (pink, sold separately) which are rated P100 so they block more particles than N95 masks while still being VERY EASY TO BREATHE. Breathing is much easier than through a cloth mask. Some people experience anxiety or unnatural breathing when their normal breathing is restricted by a face mask, even a cloth mask. so people can't hear me. Basically it doesn't matter much, I don't have to talk to people much anyway when I'm wearing it. There is a good rubber grommet around the edge of the mask that seals quite well. Filters attach with 1/4 turn. Simple but make sure you do all 1/4 turns so they stay on. If you wish, you can wear a baseball cap over the strap of this mask. It has a downward vent that makes exhaling very easy, but even if you've taped it shut, it's easy to breathe through this mask. Depending on the filters I think. There are many filters that match this mask. I chose 3M 2097 P100 rated filters which fit my needs (coronavirus protection without fogging glasses). These filters are also great for paint splatter, smoke, smog or air pollution. This mask isn't as quick to put on and take off as an earhook cloth mask, but it works much better and most importantly doesn't fog up my glasses so I can see clearly where I'm going. It's safer that way. And of course, the right filters can save your health and maybe even your life.
