Tools and Hardware Reviews of 3M R9211-10 N95 Cool-Flow Particulate Sanding Respirator, 10-Pack
Customer Review: Comfortable, compact, effective
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought several boxes of these masks last year as H1N1 was starting up. I travel a lot on airplanes, take the underground metro to work every day, and generally have to breath not so great air. I've tried several other N95 masks and this one is the best. Unlike stiff paper masks, this fits snug and comfortably. It is not difficult to breath, even for many hours. I've worn them on Trans-Pacific plane flights without discomfort. In addition to helping protect me from virus infection and pollens, my primary goal, I've noticed this mask does a great job in cities filtering out dust and particulates from automobiles. You can positively tell the difference in air quality when you wear it. The mask doesn't do anything for noxious gases, but for particulates it is great. Recommended.Customer Review: Best of the 3M N95 series
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used hundreds of these. 3M sells the N95 mask with or without the air valve, different color and position straps, etc. all with the same title. I like these best. The valve makes it easier to breath so it doesn't get so hot and humid in the mask. The comfort to some extent will depend on how you bend the nose piece. Give the metal a smooth bend to follow the nose contour rather than a sharp bend. I've used this while cutting cement, sanding, shaking out shop-vac filters, and crawling around in the dusty attic. When they're cheap to buy and convenient to grab from the drawer, you're likely to use them more.Customer Review: Most Confortable
Summary: 5 Stars
I used these respirators/masks in a very small area heavily ladened with cedar sawdust. Though I could certainly smell the cedar, it was more like a pleasant aroma than the nearly overwhelming smell that otherwise filled the air. Because it lays more flatly on the nose, cheeks and underchin, it seems to form a much broader, therefore, better seal than the more common, rigid, dome-shaped masks. (Afterward, my unprotected hands reeked so of cedar sawdust, it was almost nauseating to get them anywhere near my face.) It is, also, the most confortable filter I have ever used. Obviously, I highly recommend them.Customer Review: very good mask
Summary: 4 Stars
These masks stay on well (the double strapping is very good), they are easy to form to the shape of your nose and valve helps to keep my glasses from fogging up. The valves add considerably to the cost of these masks but for me they are worth the extra money paid. I use these almost exclusively for protection when I am sanding wood or paint. It is important to note that dust masks need to be matched to the job. Read the label and find out what a particular mask is rated for. This mask would be less than useless for vapor protection. It is a great mask for protection from sanding particulates.Customer Review: SF NERT / CA CERT GO BAG
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a 'must have' in any SF NERT / CA CERT Go-Bag. The mask is packaged collapsed. This will provide a good fit over your face when you need it, unlike the 'dome' type. The 'dome' type of N95 mask will be crushed in the Go-Bag over a period of time and will take up too much room if you have it in a crush proof container. The Cool-Flow feature makes it easier to breath over extended period of time.
