Aura Particulate Respirator 9205+, N95, Pack of 440 Disposable Respirators, Individually Wrapped, 3 Panel Flat Fold Design Allows for Facial Movements, Comfortable, NIOSH Approved

Great mask, good deal. Received quickly and in excellent condition. Would buy again. I like these masks because they fit my smaller face well and are comfortable. The foam strip along with the flexible aluminum clip make a good seal over the nose. I feel protected when I wear these. I wish the elastic around the head were a bit more durable though because if it breaks I have to discard the mask. Otherwise very good mask.

I have always worn a small in the Hillyard duckbill design but I was not able to find a small that would be delivered before we left on our trip. I ordered these instead and they fit perfectly with tight seal and are more comfortable than the Hillyard was for me. It was a great choice for me!

3M Aura Particulate Face Masks; pack 20; N95; white. I am a man, 6’ 1” tall, 170lb. My face/head would be considered more of the long, narrow type and usually home to a short beard and mustache. Throughout any given day I wear contacts/prescription glasses, sunglasses and/or safety glasses 99% of the time. I am not a robot, but sometimes wish I was (never trust a robot). Likewise, I am not paid by 3M although I wish I was. Like many, I have experienced my fair share of masks and there are a few key features that are absolutely necessary if one is to be donned for extended duration due to occupational necessity or government mandate. 3M’s Aura provides all these features making them my choice, my recommendation and my only written review. *Masks are NIOSH N95 Particulate Respirators which means they have been tested and confirmed to perform to a specific standard. It’s your responsibility to know and understand those standards and what they mean for protecting your health. It’s important to note that adding any prefix to the N95 designation automatically negates these standards. For example, a mask labeled “KN95” is not equal to, or an acceptable substitute for a N95 mask. *Straps that wrap around the head completely. These masks provide 2 reliable elastic straps that do not use your ears to hold itself securely to your face. There are no special pieces or additional accessories needed to extend the straps completely around the head and neck. *Each mask is Individually wrapped and sealed in plastic. *Metal strip of adequate length and fortitude combined with ergonomic design features and a foam gasket provides a leak free seal around the bridge of the nose and cheeks. NO STEAMED UP GLASSES. This may be the most important aspect of all. *This may sound a bit shallow, but these masks don’t make you look stupid. Not quite sure how else to say it. I only wish they made them in black. Other features include a chin tab for easy donning and adjustments which is nice particularly if you are sporting a beard or facial piercings. Also handy if you need to pull the mask down often, to speak for example. Each mask stores flat. They are deemed disposable, however at home or in the shop I will often reuse them within reason as they are certainly of sufficient quality to do so. No broken elastic straps or irreparably deformed metal nose strip. These masks work, and if you wear one long enough you will be able to see discoloration of the material (inside and out) caused by all of the crap being trapped within: a good indicator for any filter doing it’s job. Dig? Word. 3M is an American company with a laundry list of awesome products derived from the creative ingenuity found nowhere else in the world. The 3M Aura mask is no exception. I take comfort and pride in that. Take my advise and spare yourself the foggy glasses. If you have to wear a mask 3M is the way to go.

These masks are medical-grade and designed to keep out airborne particulates, particularly in a hospital environment where you can become ill at the drop of a hat.

I have been using this model for most of the pandemic. Ever since we learned that the vaccine worked for a day and a half and we had to deal with 7,000 new variants a week, I have been using this mask only. I used to use a KN-95 most of the time, but not any longer. (Note: Get vaccinated! It is still worth it, but it would be nice if it worked better than the flu shot and was more like the MMR vaccine.) This mask fits my face pretty well. The nose portion fits very well and gives me a good seal. The bottom portion can slide up a little from my chin so I have to pull it down from time to time. It seems like it still maintains a seal, but not quite as good once it slides. I still get some fogging with my glasses, but it usually not too much. There is definitely a smell, but I don't find it overwhelming. I have bought this mask in a box of 20 with the box and also as 20 individual masks that came without the box. I noticed zero difference and don't think that they are fake at all. The stitching is the same, the material is the same, the number of notches along the edge of the mask are the same, the staples are the same, the smell is the same, et cetera. If the ones not sold with the box are fake, then they spent more producing the fakes than the originals, lol. Anyway, I think that people buy huge amounts at a discount and then break up giant orders so we can benefit from a lower price. If you are worried, I think that you can find the same masks in boxes of 3, 10 and 20. I try to keep track and change masks if they get wet or after around 5 to 8 hours. Sometimes I pop in a store and wear it just for a few minutes. I have noticed that the more that I take it on and off, the rubber bands became a bit looser, but still it seems to fit okay. Just be aware of this and switch to a fresh mask if you notice any significant issues instead of being lazy or cheap. Once again, this is my go to mask, and I strongly recommend it, but everyone's needs and face is different.

I didn't count them, but there is a lifetime supply in there for most people. Looks to be a contractor pack, with OEM 3M part number and description on box. These are the basic version of this mask, but still offer the same particulate protection, and a more comfortable, less "swampy" fit (compared to cup shaped designs) for long wear, just like the variants with fancier straps and valves. I'd guess these fit small and medium sized faces best. Thanks Woot/Amazon!

These are great masks. The only ones that don’t cause my glasses to fog. My 2nd order.

I love that the quantity is available in 440. Second time I’ve bought these but this time we have a bunch of snappers! 3out of 5 at least are snapping! :/

These are quality masks that fit comfortably. They have an extra flap on the top and the bottom so your nose and mouth get good coverage compared to most of the flimsy junk you'd pull out of a box of medical supplies. I use mine in a wood shop and when I'm removing moldy old bark mulch around trees at the condo complex I'm working. Would buy again.

Recomendo.

Excelente. Es exactamente el modelo solicitado. El envío llegó puntual.

Estuve de viaje en Nueva Delhi, India; los altísimo niveles de contaminación me dejaron impactada (Arriba de 300 puntos); sin embargo, estas mascarillas funcionaron perfectamente. Notaba la diferencia inmediatamente cuando salía a la calle sin ellas, al poco tiempo me costaba respirar, pero al usarla podía estar largos periodos en la calle sin problemas. Excelente compra!

Excellent produit. Grandeur parfaite. Bon ajustement.
