The quality of the elastic straps weigh home the mask on your head has truly fallen off a cliff. The yellow bands break so fast. Unreliable.

Thank you for taking time to leave a review. Per the user instructions on the box, pre-stretching of the 8210 head strap is required prior to the initial use.
I am a retired ER RN. These N95 masks are as good or better than the standard N95 masks we used in the ER pre CoVid. When inhaling, the mask noticeably contracts indicating a good, tight, seal==> great protection from drawing in unfiltered air possibly laced with virus or harmful bacteria. Back then we used N95 masks for TB and flu patients. These masks feel like they give a better seal than what we used then.
Junk, not worth it won't fit. Straps are inelastic the mask is very small. Might work for a child but the straps would hurt
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Masks fits very securely, elasticized straps require quite a stretch over my small head. But if figure skater Nathan Chen wears his at the Olympics, what better recommendation is there?
