3D Disposable Mask for Adults, Elastic Cloth Ear Straps Breathable Face Mask Individual Package 50pcs White

We were skeptical when ordering these, as there are no other vendors selling this design. We have tried them all, done the candle/lighter blow tests AND the waterproof tests with all. We like these a lot, surprisingly. It passed the candle and water tests, which we did not expect. Also, the fit on these is very good. It was comfortable and worked well. We also did not expect this, because there is no nosewire and no adjustment ability except to tie a knot in the thin, flexible earloops. This still fit well on our 10-year old son (5', ~100#), and other adults in the family (ranging from a 5ft,3in female to a 5ft,10in male) with varying body weights and head sizes/shapes. These masks are also easy to breathe in, because of the design. There is a large area in front of the face and it doesn't touch the lower nostrils or the mouth, although the mask will suck in a bit if you breathe heavily. We take that as a good sign, since normal wear doesn't require that kind of heavy breathing, but there is a seal created with more forceful air flow.There is a learning curve with how to open the mask. The first time we opened one of the packs (they come in 5 packs of 10 masks each), we were surprised and treated the mask very gingerly, afraid to rip the ear loops. Best to open the mask from the melt-blown nose piece as a starting point, and then the earloops can be pulled apart carefully. Kind of like opening the old plastic bags from the grocery store, where the handles were pressed flat. Once the mask is open, though, there's no problem with that again. You can remove the mask, fold it flat, and easily reopen (like if you're wearing this to indoor dine and plan on putting it back on right away). It's a one-time use mask, and can't be washed. However, because it's all fabric (no nose wire or strings), I don't feel as badly throwing these away as I would with other single-use masks (ok, I still feel kinda bad, but these work great if you forget your reusable mask).If you have anyone in the family who doesn't like the way the earloops feel on other masks, doesn't like the headband/headstrap style of mask, has a hard time breathing in masks that get "wet" or feel suffocated in other masks, or has skin sensitivities, these masks are FANTASTIC. They are very light. If you want the heavier feel of an airtight seal/pressure, are doing construction work, or need to wear medical equipment, they are NOT going to work for you as a standalone mask. But if you're going to the store or for a walk or are in an office, these are great. Wish they were cheaper, but they are an engineering marvel. We didn't believe they were effective till we did the lighter test and waterproof test. Water beaded, and the 3-wick candle didn't blow out, no matter how close we got (and I almost set the tip of the mask on fire, to be honest...I got REALLY close).We keep a pack of these in the desk drawers at work, and a pack of these by the front door. Would buy again.

Great lightweight mask!

If you have a small face it’s not for you.I love the loops 👍🏾 Hate that the masks has to be opened like a thin bag of potato chips👎🏾These are too big for my face.

Packaging great they divide them by 10th it’s very organize. It’s so comfortable to wear in the daily basis but don’t compare this to your N95 because it’s not I would say “It looks like K95 but the protection wasn’t there” because of the material. If you want N95 protection this is not it

This is the mask I go for most often, and I've purchased several boxes in the last year and half. It's true that it is NOT an N95 mask, but it filters better than most surgical masks and cloth masks. I wear this one in lower risk daily situations and save the N95 or equivalent masks for riskier situations.The primary reason I repeated use these masks is because they fit me very very well, forming a firm but comfortable seal - so that all the air passes through the mask instead of around the sides like many other masks I've tried. The masks have a little stretch, but the fit will definitely depend on your face shape, because this mask is designed to fit around the sides of your face and under your chin.In my small personal test group, three women liked this mask due to its fit, but the one man in the group did not. The three who liked it have an average sized round face, average sized oval face, and a smaller sized heart-shaped face. The one who didn't like the fit had a larger square-shaped face, so it didn't fit well under his chin. I'm guessing it probably won't fit people with longer faces or wider chins (wider cheeks seem to be less of a problem because of how it is cut).

Original review: I am assisting three high-risk families during the pandemic. Based on some reviews, I thought these masks might be good for some of the folks I'm helping. Not so.There were many issues, but first, the erratic quality affects everyone, so just on that, these masks are a no go. (For the record, so far, according to Amazon, we've made 40 purchases of disposable masks during the pandemic, so we're very experienced in purchasing a variety of disposable masks).Second, the masks are folded in half, and almost but not quite, fused. Separating the two sides was impossible for some of the people I'm helping, nearly impossible for others, and either way, since the material is so fragile, it had a tendency to rip. I don't think, given what they tried to do to separate the halves, that there is safety in these masks, because even if the "fabric" doesn't out and out rip, it's impossible to tell if each side is intact or not.Third, the mask fits loosely, so protection is questionable at best.Finally, for the reasons stated above, none of the members of any of the families I'm helping were willing to recommend these masks.UPDATED: We had a few other people try these masks rather than having them go to waste. Nobody liked them.
