AccuMed BNX N95 Mask Black MADE IN USA Particulate Respirator Protective Face Mask (10-Pack, Approval Number TC-84A-9315 / Model H95B)

These N95 masks are a fantastic choice for reliable protection and comfort. This 10 pack offers great value, and the masks fit exceptionally well compared to others I’ve tried. They provide solid filtration while still allowing for easy breathing, and the adjustable nose piece helps ensure a secure seal and custom kind of feel. I also appreciate the two-strap design, one going around the upper head and one around the lower neck, which keeps the mask in place without feeling overly tight. Even with a larger head, these stretch comfortably without feeling like the mask is digging into my face. The overall build quality is excellent, with durable bands that don’t snap or rip from the mask like cheaper alternatives. If you're looking for a high-quality N95 mask that fits well and stays secure, this is definitely a great option. Highly recommended!

Good value, fits nicely, comfortable & always a go to when flying across the country. N95 quality protection.

I'm always on the lookout for a better combination of seal and comfort. I prefer headband-style masks because they provide more force to get that better seal around the face while also being more comfortable around the ears.I have a medium sized adult head and have never had an issue with straps breaking on headband style masks before I dispose of them (typically after 4-5 wears) although I have had a few ear-loop style straps break on me. Thankfully, the straps on these BNX masks do the trick. They are the same length as the other two masks pictured which I have been testing also. These BNX straps have a good elasticity to them and are not too stiff to stretch like some BYD and 3M masks I have tried on.In particular I like that the chin and cheek areas of this mask provide an immediate fit and don't get curled up and need readjustment like some other masks.Some N95 masks I consider too suffocating and wouldn't want to wear while doing everyday tasks like grocery shopping but these have worked well for all tasks.Overall, for me they provide a good combination of a great seal, adequate breathability, and comfort both on the face and around the ears.[Edit]: Had a strap tear at the point where it connects with the mask just after writing this review. Was able to repair it with some tape/glue but I would recommend pre-stretching the straps carefully before putting on.

I've tried many different kinds of masks. This is the best yet for comfort. And the straps haven't broken loose like some others have.

Great N95 masks. 2 elastic straps mean goog tight fit. Black color good for theater use.

First off, while these are certified by NIOSH to be N95 respirators, these seem to be blurring the line on what should be considered as an "N95" respirator and a "KN95" respirator. To have nearly the same layers as the GB2626-2019 standard but have the main difference being "it has to have headband straps" really sets the bar so low in terms of NIOSH-certified respirator masks that filter at least 95% of non-oily particulates at 2.5 microns or less.Secondly, amazing comfort from the straps and even the face part of it, but the non-woven layer that goes on your face is still rather abrasive. It's not as terrible as other (then KN95) respirators from this same company (AccuMed) where their white ones are oddly scratchier than their black counterparts, but I still get at least a mild allergic reaction to it, as evidently shown on my nose turning red with what seems to be slight swelling at the end where the mask sits--this also makes my nose run, like a good number of respirators do.Third, despite its comfort, it still uses the shitty clamshell design, which counterintuitively bends the metal band that sits at the nasal bridge far too sharply. This makes it so damn easy for air leaks to occur under your eyes and along your nasal bridge when exhaling. According to CDC guidelines, you have to test with your hands around the edges of the mask and breathe in and out sharply to test the airtightness of the mask. Well, this mask and others like it fail very hard at it once I let it go, even if I pretty much don't have any facial hair on it. I wear glasses, so I can absolutely see the air leak happening. Also, the clamshell design makes it harder to actually talk and make other facial expressions, which is a major drawback. (My face is slender enough that this shouldn't be an issue, but it is.)Fourth, cost-per-mask is an utter RIPOFF ($2.30/mask - $2.50/mask). 3M's respirators are still in high demand and the cost per respirator is still relatively low, and they managed to make it so there is a foam pad for your nose, which is designed to not only let less air out completely unfiltered, but also to prevent (of course) very fine particles from getting in your mask without filtration, which viruses can also get in with or without respiratory droplets. (Viruses heavily depend on respiratory droplets and the path to least resistance in order to get in our respiratory systems, but viruses can still survive for a shorter period of time without any respiratory droplets.) I'm genuinely convinced that companies such as AccuMed and other KN95/N95 sellers and distributors are and *have been* purposefully cashing in on the pandemic and exploiting their consumers for it, which I find to be extremely amoral and unjust in every aspect.Fifth and last, on top of other aforementioned positives in this review, breathability is not actually that half bad. Like most other respirators, they eventually develop a level of air resistance as there is more moisture buildup. BUT! I do also want to mention that this mask, like every other clamshell mask, will make you constantly readjust it every time you move your head anywhere NEAR the directions other than straight ahead: (the perceived) filtration performance is usually worse when looking lower than straight, and possibly almost close to the extreme positions (left up and right, other than just downward) enables the mask to be shifted some. I'm led to believe that this issue exists in a great number of KN95 and N95 respirators on the market, right now.Overall: I would look elsewhere for N95 or even KN95 respirators. There are better options out there, and I do not recommend most people get an otherwise subpar mask for an unreasonably higher asking price.

I decided to order several packs of these to avoid any rush on them if another virus comes through. I specifically wanted the NIOSH mask, not the K95. I like the black color and it's comfortable enough I forget I'm wearing it sometimees. I still wear a mask when I'm going to be indoors in stores for an extended period of time to avoid things like the flu.

I absolutely love these masks! I am extreme high risk due to having COPD and emphysema and Graves’ disease.So whenever I am at work around a lot of people, which is all the time, and during cold and flu season especially, I have to mask up. An N 95 mask is always my go to mask, but I was getting very disheartened with the bright turquoise ones because I stand out like a sore thumb. I mean, let’s face it now that Covid has gone down quite a bit not everyone is wearing a mask. I was really longing for a black and N 95 mask. When I saw your company, and that these masks are produced in the USA, I was sold!You make a wonderful product and I am now a customer FOREVER!!!!!
