I am extremely disappointed that a 3M product would be so poorly made. The straps are fastened with staples which cut into my face when I tried to wear it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought a two pack of two days ago and tried one today and the strap broke off within a couple of hours. Extremely disappointed in the performance of these masks. 3M's 8200 masks last longer than these do

3M recommends pre-stretching of the 8210 head strap prior to the initial use per the instructions on the packaging. If you make the decision to reuse the same respirator, additional pre-stretching is not needed. Depending on the number of reuses, pre-stretching each time could potentially weaken the head strap. Because they’re considered disposable respirators, they’re not designed for significant reuse.
Glad to receive the mask but they are a little tight around my face due to the tight straps. Not sure how to fix this so it's more comfortable to wear.
