Bands were too tight. Mask was smushed up against my face
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for taking time to leave a review. This respirator requires the straps to be pre-stretched which may help with the fit in addition to strap breakage. Please refer to the user instructions on the box to assist with this process.
Product arrived as advertised and seems to be of high quality. These things really fit quite snugly and may be uncomfortable if you need to wear them all day. That being said, they seem to be effective and don't let air pass easily (e.g. no gaps).
It’s quite small for an adult face. The fit was very tight and uncomfortable.

Thank you for leaving a review! Most 3M N95 models are offered in one size only designed to fit most adults. We do have a few small N95 models designed for smaller faces but we don’t offer a specific model for larger faces. All 3M N95 models fit slightly different, even those of the same size. The respirator you purchased does require pre-stretching of the straps which may help with the tightness you are feeling. Please refer to the user instructions on the box for how to pre-stretch them.
