Update May 17, 2013: Since I wrote my original review, I've come to find out that I do have some problem with fogging of my glasses in cold weather, but it hasn't been a major issue. Also, these masks do not absolutely protect against dust/allergens; the conical (cone) type masks do perform better, I think. But, I still like these masks for their fit and comfort and sometimes double up when I'm dusting/cleaning and that helps greatly. Still recommend this brand.Original Review:
These masks are very well made. The nosepiece is actually inside the mask material, so it cannot come loose and potentially be a hazard to the eyes. I had to get used to the mask touching my nose and mouth, but with a little adjustment, it doesn't do that all the time and if it does, I've grown use to it already.
These masks seem to protect well from dust but some scents do come through, not enough to bother me, like when I'm not wearing a mask.
Overall, I prefer this type of mask to the usual cone shape mask like you can get at the dollar stores. The earloops are much more comfortable and most importantly, I can wear a mask and my glasses while driving without my glasses fogging up. That's especially significant during the hot weather months as my car's air conditioning doesn't work well right now and we have to keep the windows open.
I thought ragweed season was especially rough in 2010, but this spring has been extra rough too. If I went outside without a mask, my nose would itch terribly and if outside too long, the inevitable allergic reactions would occur.
This is the best mask I've found so far for protection, comfort, and ability to wear glasses without fogging up.
heavily built respirator.I'm so glad I purchased these. They help immensely with my allergies whether indoors or out. They have no latex (yay!) and are easy to put on and take off.I did not order pink. I received these in pink and they look like female sanitary feminine products. I would not wear them at all.
