Tools and Hardware Reviews of AO Safety/3M Tekk 95190 Woodworker's Respirator
Customer Review: Comes with one filter
Summary: 4 Stars
At the time of purchase, the description for this item states that it comes with 2 filters. In fact, it only comes with one filter. This shouldn't be too big of a deal since you probably ordered the replacement filters when you purchased the respirator. Overall, I am happy with this product and it is a big improvement over disposable masks.Customer Review: Comfortable Woodworkers Respirator
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good value. It's comfortable and fits well. The fit is different from most respirators I've used in that it doesn't cover the chin, but seals above the chin under the lower lip. This helps it seal better over facial hair. The drawback is that it tends to flop open when bending over unless it is tightened considerably more. I've been able to find a happy medium. It is much better filtering than the white particle masks and lighter weight than the bulkier two cartridge respirators. My sinuses and lungs are much clearer at the end of a day of sanding. I don't normally write reviews, but this product is distinct enough it deserves recognition.Customer Review: Comfortable and Effective
Summary: 5 Stars
This respirator is comfortable and effective. I wear glasses and they don't fog up. I also get a good seal even with my beard. I've used this while sanding and it made a big difference.Customer Review: Comfortable!
Summary: 5 Stars
This mask is very comfortable for long wear. Its designed so that the bottom rests just below your lip. Testing the seal on this yields excellent results. Filters are easy to replace.Customer Review: Disposeable mask
Summary: 2 Stars
The main complaint I have about the mask is it's fit. Initially - it felt a little uncomfortable - but I got used to it where it didn't bother me to wear the mask.
I was really excited to find an economical dust mask that I could replace filters and not spend too much money on the filters. I still have 2 packages of replacement filters that I'll probably never use - after replacing the filter once - the mask no longer seals around my face.
I think they could fix the problem if they had a dual point attachment connecting the strap to the mask. But it attaches at one point like a pair of swimming goggles so there's not alot of flexibility to adjust the fit.
My conclusion is you get what you pay for - and I'm currently looking for another alternative to replace this respirator. It worked well initially - when I could get a good seal around my face.
