Unfortunately I need to find new masks. I don’t know if they changed the fit, or I just haven’t noticed for some reason, but I’m realizing the masks I’ve been wearing are too big for my face. I’m in the market for some new masks and I’m wondering what brand/types people have been using (n95s).
i really like the 3M Aura 9205+ They are the comfiest and actually seal around my nose unlike the black one’s like Joe is donning in the comm banner.
Any mask that loops around your ears like Joe’s mask does is not an N-95 and is probably a KN-95. N-95s will always have 2 horizontal straps that go around your head, not your ears.
I’m also on the 9205+ train. The only thing I don’t like is that the rubber bands wear out and pull on my hair when I take them off. The 9210 uses elastic cloth-like bands which seems less likely to do so.
Is there a place to buy these? I can’t find them on the 3m store on Amazon
I bought some directly from 3M’s website: https://3m.com/3M/en_US/p/dc/v101143932
They make you check a box saying
but whatever, corporations are people, so we count.
If you do want to buy from Amazon, the one in the 3M Store is https://amazon.com/dp/B09FM2P1KF
Ended up just buying from home depot
I get mine from Walgreens but home Depot is probably cheaper.
I use these as well. I went looking for 9206 at Home Depot yesterday but they didn’t carry them. Like to give them a shot tho.
Does the 3M 9206 N95 exist? I can’t find it online
Lol. It does not. I was thinking 9210, with the fabric elastic straps.
Ooh fancy
Right? 🧐
Supposed to last longer than the plain old elastic, which I definitely find sags a bit before it finally snaps.
