3M Half Facepiece Reusable Respirator Assembly Kit 6291, Size Medium, P100, Lightweight, Comfortable, Easy to Adjust, Includes 2091 Particulate Filter, Welding, Soldering, Asbestos

I purchased three of these masks for my family during this summer's wildfire season, which unfortunately continues to burn only 8 miles away from my home. These 3M Half Face-piece Reusable Respirator Assemblies make the smoke bearable. The fit is snug, but not tight and can be adjusted to fit different face sizes. The feel of the mask becomes more comfortable over time than surgical-type masks, which tend to lack suitable air exchange which holds in vapor (ie: sweat). The filters which are pictured on the side of the respirator (pink in the picture, but we received blue ones with our masks), are easy to attach to the mask. You will need to purchase new filters as these get soiled, but the price is reasonable. Notches on the respirator correspond with those on the filters and it's a matter of lining them up and twisting them on. The connection is very secure and the filters do a great job. These respirators are superior to the basic paper face masks, and obviously work well enough to be used in multiple situations, for multiple uses. I would recommend these masks to anyone who needs a step above the basic filtration that a 3M 1860S Particulate Respirator and Surgical Mask, Small, Box of 20 provides. People with asthma, COPD, the elderly, children and those with autoimmune diseases would benefit from using this mask in smokey conditions. Under normal circumstances, those who are into crafting and woodworking, using sanders, paints, and varnishes, would also find this respirator assembly a helpful safety basic. These masks do come in sizes (S,M,LG). I purchased 3 of the medium size, and it seems to fit everyone (all average sized 5'4-5'10, average weight), just fine. I highly recommend this quality 3M product.

I’m a person who wears glasses and it’s been difficult to find a mask that fits well and does not fog up my lenses. Even products that boast being anti-fog don’t work … for me anyway. But this dust mask is awesome! I enjoy working with wood, especially wood sculpture, and the sanding/finishing process requires intricate sanding with my face close to the piece. In the past I’ve often left my studio coughing and sneezing after a day’s work. NO MORE! This mask fits well and is easy to put on and take off. The filters are a breeze to install and highly effective capturing any kind of particulate that might be floating around my studio. The replacement filters are reasonably priced although I haven’t needed to change them over the past month or so. I learned about this product while watching a YouTube channel/program that suggested it. I am obviously very pleased with this product and recommend it highly.

This saved my wood working career. I have worked with wood for 40 years, never had a problem, never wore a mask. I began turning with the lathe and almost ended up in the emergency room- luckily I had a nebulizer for the kids at home. The exotic woods are very hard on the respiratory system and you must protect yourself. I now own four of these (one for each of my kids and a traveling one). The mask is reasonably comfortable, it fits over your head with two loops of the plastic strap. I have a small hat size and it fits me fine. It is light weight. It can get a little warm after several hours. I find that I don't like wearing it more then 4 hours straight. Once adjusted I haven't had to adjust it again. My glasses fit fine under the straps and if I'm using safety goggles they strap over the mask and I haven't had a problem. I've been using it over a year and have not had to change the filters. The outside gets dirty and I wipe them off with a damp cloth- you can't get the filters wet. The filters twist on easily and twist off when I wash the whole mask in water. I now use an air filtration system in the shop but used this by itself and never had another problem breathing.

This is a good product and price however it did not come with the pink filters which it was advertised as included. I had ordered another set anyway because I wanted four but feel if stated included in the price should be there tho I do see that is not a typical problem. I did contact the seller who responded very quickly and was pleasant but they would not just send me the filters but wanted me to return entire pkg. my husband had to have then so that was inconvenient. They did offer me other options but if they sent me a new one I would just have taken the filters out of that and sent that new one back so not sure why they could just not do that. They said they could not take from another kit. Kinda did not make sense to me. But we kept and just moved on!

I started doing wood working as a hobby and after reading about the safety requirements I wanted to make sure my lungs would be protected from the fine dust that is generated when cutting and sanding wood. Initially I thought that a cloth mask would be good enough protection, and that's what I bought first. I believe the cloth mask worked well and I was happy creating my first things in wood. A few toys (tools) later, and after reading some more about the subject I realized that for about the same price this mask would be a better option than the cloth mask as it would guarantee blocking 99.97% of the fine particles. Who knows exactly how much the cloth mask blocks? So I decided to buy this mask. Knowing that this mask is produced by a reputable company, that it is NIOSH approved and that the air that flows into my lungs has to first go through the 2091 P100 filters gives me complete peace of mind. Now I can continue with my woodworking without concerns about my lungs. After having used it many times for long periods I realized that this mask has other significant advantages over the cloth mask: My goggles don't fog like they used to when using the cloth mask and breathing is also easier. One difficulty I had when deciding for this purchase was the correct size for me. The recommendation is to fit different sizes in the store. I ended up choosing the medium size and I'm happy with it. It fits well and there's no air leak between the mask and my face. I'm 5' 11'', but YMMV.

Nice low profile respirator with replaceable cartridges. Fits under my welding helmet.

I ordered this respirator to use while making jewelry to protect myself from solder fumes as well as the dust from filing various metals. The product description says it comes with the mask as well as 2 filters, but the package I received today only included the mask. I thought maybe I misread the product description or perhaps I had assumed they were included just from the picture alone but I double checked and everywhere states clearly that 2 filters should be included as well (even the bag it was packaged in says the contents of the bag should include a mask and 2 filters). I'm extremely disappointed since this is useless until I make an ADDITIONAL purchase which I was not planning on and wait for that to be shipped. I'm sure the mask works well. I put it on and it fits my face perfectly (I was a bit worried because I have a big head) and even without the filters I can tell it will work well once I add them on. Unfortunately, I can't write a more comprehensive review since I was misled into paying for something that will never be sent to me. Dear BHP Saftey Products, please do not tell me I am buying 2 things and then only send 1. That is not a way to keep customers. I will never buy from you again. I left a 3 star review since the product is not defective in any way, it just was not as described. I would give only 1 star if I was basing my review on the seller alone but I don't want people to think the product does not work. (I tried to contact them and leave seller feedback but it wasn't even an option for this item.)
