I am going to give this silicon self suctioning N95 mask 3 stars. It took a week to come to this decision. I was tossing around between 2 and 4. Hereis why. The mask is made of silicon, and fits well to my face with no manipulation. Just lace the string on and tighten it to fit your head. The string is very stretchy. I was easily about to double it so I could wear it across the top and the base of my head at the same time. I prefer to just wear it around my head above the ears and the mask stays on very well. The front part of the mask is a hard plastic, this is where you lace the string through and also where the replaceable filter it. It basically pops onto the silicon part of the mask. The mask itself is easily cleanable by just dropping the silicone part into boiling water. It does come with 2 of the cotton filter pads.
Now here is the part of this review I was tossing back and forth on. The mask is great it stays on well, but out of the package the chemical smell is so strong after just a few seconds my sinuses were freaking out. I couldn't stand the smell. I did set it on a shelf and let it air for most of a week and the smell does dissipate pretty well, but I cannot wear it for long periods.
The mask comes with 2 of the replaceable filters, The website says it comes with 2 at the top and 10 in the product description. I have looked and so far have not been able to find more replacements for the mask.
The packaging is nice it is a plastic zip top baggie, with a foil look inside. All of the writing on the package is in Chinese I believe it is. So the instructions I cannot read. There are 4 small pictures to give you and idea, plus the mask is pretty much self explanatory to begin with. But I would like to be able to read how long to boil the mask, how long to use the filters and things like that. There was a small card inside written in English but it was not indepth at all.
The next thing it says that it is not sold in the US, so most of you reading this will not be able to purchase one.
It does seem like a very good mask, it is comfortable to wear too.
I either received this product for free or at a discounted price and have chosen to leave this honest and unbiased review.
