Oregon Protect chainsaw Safety Helmet with Protective Ear Muff and Mesh Visor

Of the dozens even hundreds of items I have bought off Amazon over the years this is by the far most remarkable I wish there were more than 5 stars. How is this safety helmet made at this price ???. Simple to put together, a little extra pressure need for the clips, but no instructions required, just a little common sense. My hat size is 7 7/8 inch, yes I'm a big chap and was reluctant to buy as I thought it would be too small. Without any adjustment fitted me perfectly out of the box and comfortably, with the interior bands covered in 'cloth'. It is very well made, and is held in place on the head by the pressure of the ear defenders that work wonderfully and far superior to the little yellow ear plugs I normally use. Time will tell if it us durable but experience to date suggests it will last for some time. I bought a new chain saw recently and considered ditching the safety goggles and ear plugs (I'm a domestic user with wood burner). Wished I bought one of these years ago, I cannot recommend this product enough, well done Oregon.

Seems pretty good. Much better than having loads of debris falling on me. The mesh face guard is very good. Comfortable to wear with an adjustable head band to keep it a snug fit. Ear defenders are very good and also comfortable. For the money it isn't worth working on hedges and trees without it.

Instructions booklet absolute rubbish; the print and diagrams are so small it's if they expect an eagle to read the thing. If you look at the product photos on the box or in the Amazon listing applying common sense it's easy, very easy, to work out how to assemble the product. The fit is good and easy to adjust. The ear defenders are excellent, doing a good job at muffling sound. The visor is great. At first, when I read the description I thought that the mesh may obscure one's vision but this turned out not to be the case. In use, the mesh in front of your face is barely noticed (your view of what you are working is in no way obstructed). The mesh is fine enough that it will block out most saw dust but.......if you are doing a lot of sanding, or cutting with a circular saw it would be advisable to also wear a dust mask to block the finest dust particles from entering your lungs. The mesh visor is easily removed for times when it's not needed. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be easy to remove the ear defenders but they can be rotated away from your ears if you don't want wear them (however, in this position they remain attached to the helmet). There's no chin strap for extra support/security. I would have preferred 'day glow' yellow as the colour rather than orange. The material from which the helmet is made seems very robust. All in all, an excellent product for the price.

Great price point and a great item covers my head size 7 3/4 very large and fits my wife’s too she has a lot smaller head. The visor is great mesh and the head phones do work and cut out a lot of noise.

Bought this just after purchasing a Hyundai petrol chainsaw, as when I first used the chainsaw there were chips of wood hitting my face. Not used yet but assembled it and tried it for size. I have a medium size head, and fits perfectly with a small adjustment of the rear strap. The instructions as other reviews have said are a joke, but looking at the picture on the box makes it all clear on assembling this helmet. I am looking forward to using it in the very near future so will probably update this review.

Easy to assemble, guard is good, ear defenders are effective. CE marked.

Husband is very happy with all this gear. He has used it many times and has no complaints. Protection is great. Would buy again

Having used this helmet on a regular basis over the past 14 months I think that this piece of equipment is good and fit for its intended purpose. However the assembly instructions are shocking! As an experienced person I spent over an hour following the instructions and getting nowhere. I ditched the instructions and did it myself in under 15 mins. In use the ear defenders are very good (cutting out noise from my petrol powered chipper and power washer) allowing me to work for longer periods. The mesh visor is very sturdy and swings up and down with no sticking or binding. The foam padding on the headband is ok and does its job. In the height of summer you will start to sweat, but I think that this would be the case with whatever you are wearing. Overall, ear and eye / face protection is good, head protection is good and it is lightweight when wearing. Would be 5 stars apart from the appalling assembly instructions. Will buy again as I now know how to put it together. Good price, good spec.

Arrived 16th October NOT 15th good product some assembly required

Un casco obligatorio para estos trabajos, es comodo, se ajusta muy bien, el nivel de ruido se reduce mucho, una buena compra i a un precio muy bueno, lo recomiendo al 100x100

Netjes verpakt en bezorgd. Product is echt degelijk met een uitstekende pasvorm. Zeer makkelijk middels draaiknop aan hoofd aan te passen. Heel goed! Ben zeer tevreden over de kwaliteit. Super.

Great safety hat for the price. The head adjustment grip is a little temperamental and if too tight gives me a headache but the shield has been amazing for chainsaw work and ear muffs when I need them have been good too. Easy to store away on helmet. Overall happy with this product for the price.

Ottimo acquisto, cuffie super comode anche utilizzate per 8 ore al giorno,casco ventilato retina che protegge benissimo.
