1.0 out of 5 starsBought 4, All Sealed, But Only 3 Straps (out of 8) To Share Between 4 Masks!
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2022
I bought 4 masks for a flight, with the plan to use 2 masks there (2 people) and 2 masks back. So, call me surprised to find in the car on the way to the airport that the first sealed mask I opened had NO HEAD STRAPS in the bag (there should be two, and yes I did check the back to make sure they didn't just ship detached). WTF!
So, I open ANOTHER mask... and this one only had ONE STRAP. Again, USELESS! So that's $22 dollars down the drain now.
Before opening a 3rd and 4th bag, I feel around and check them out to find that only one of the masks had both straps, while the other had none!
TL;DR: If you're looking to buy sealed, individually bagged masks to rely on (because why else would you buy a P100 respirator if you weren't) you probably should not buy these. Clearly something went horribly wrong at the 3M factory that makes me question everything about them. Get the near identical N100 version, if you can, or one of the hard reusable respirators if you actually need a P100 (which I really didn't need a P-rating for my use case)
I probably should have known they'd be defective or irregular from their pricing... I bought them this time because they were cheaper then their identically-constructed N100 sibling; which I have bought plenty of over the past few years and NEVER had a problem with!
