I don't know who made these masks

I don't know who is making these masks but as we inhale during use, small fibers are caught in our throats and we end up coughing and gagging. It's terrible
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This mask is so tight. Im not a big guy...6'3'' and 220 lbs. The straps usually break when putting over my head and once on tight around my head. Why not make larger sizes??? I work in healthcare and this is the only mask we are allowed to use.

While the 8210 fits a wide version of face shapes and sizes, some may need a smaller or larger respirator. Pre-stretching the straps per the user instruction will help prevent them from breaking when donning.

Confident even for a moderatemask

I bought a box of 5 in March and I don't usually wear it more than 3 times a week and not for more than 1 to 2 hours at a time. Although it might not keep it as N95 equivalent I have used steam from boiling water at 20 seconds and feel confident that would take care of any problems. I also alternate usage which would make it about once every other week.
I would recommend this to a friend!

BUT

The weakness of the mask lies in breakage of yellow straps which shears on approximately 10 uses which I think is more because of packaging defect as 20 numbers are crammed and this puts pressure on the straps by folding them thereby making them weak at those points leading to shears. It gives a good tight fit until it shears. Strap material has to be changed to give it a longer life. I am using these masks since the outbreak of coronavirus.

Fogs up my glasses which means not a perfect seal and several of the mask’s elastic bands have broke while wearing, leaving me holding the mask to my face. Still slightly better than the KN95 Japan junk masks that not only fog up my glasses, and also straps break, but they don’t provide the protection the n95 is supposed to provide. Not sure if there is much different but hope these N95 masks are protecting me better. I wouldn’t buy as as many as I purchased but good until you can find better protection. I am looking for a better N95 mask

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.
It is also very important to always follow the model-specific user instructions for your respirator and to do a user seal check (fit check) before each use. Remember, the better the seal, the more of the air that you breathe goes through the filter.

The bands are too tight and do not fit all. Two adults and two teens with norma-sized heads complained of pinching and tightness making it difficult to wear.

Thank you for your comments and product feedback. It is very important that your 3M N95 Respirator seals completely to your face. The elastic head bands are necessary in order for the mask to fit securely. If a respirator does not seal well to your face, airborne hazards can enter around the gaps between the faceseal and the face. If you cannot achieve a good seal with your respirator, you should try a different model until you find one that is well sized and seals well to your face.
The straps on this respirator must be pre-stretched per the instructions inside the box.
