Review on NIOSH Approved Mask Particulate Respirator by Ryan Saxton

I use these masks to protect myself from dirt. I had to use KN95 masks for several months trying to keep dust off my nose and face and separating dirt and grass from patches I dug up in the yard to paddocks around newly planted trees and shrubs to enlarge so that I can mow well. with my lawn mower. When I ordered the masks in the fall all I could get was KN95 and they weren't adequate for mud protection because they didn't fit snugly around the face because the loops wrapped around the ears instead of the head. Having worked in a hospital for many years, I am very familiar with N95 masks and have used them before to help mowing grass for grass allergies. I put on one of these new masks yesterday while sweeping the dirt in my garage and sifting through some dirt and grass. The nose piece is much better than the KN95 and the straps that go around the head instead of the ears fit snugly around the face and keep mud out really well. With the KN95 mask my glasses always fogged up, while with these N95 goggles I was able to keep my glasses on and for a change could actually see what I was doing. I always had to take my glasses off when using the KN95 mask because it fogged up regardless of the outside temperature. This mask is also more comfortable than some of the old N95 masks I bought from the store years ago because the material is soft and not stiff like the old ones I had. The only issue I had was that I could feel my face in the mask's sweat even though it was hot and humid outside, which has nothing to do with the mask itself. When I bought these KN95 masks in the fall, I think I paid more for 10 of these masks than for 20 of these N95 masks. I am so happy and very satisfied with this product and the price I paid was much lower. No more need to remove the dirt from your nose.
