[LG Airwasher] KF94 Disposable Face Mask, 10 Pack - Made in Korea, Black Breathable Reusable Face Mask, Individually Wrapped 4-Ply Adjustable Cloth Masks

I've had nothing but sadness with masks since COVID. I have a small nose and a goatee. A combination that has kept every other mask from sealing and staying put except for a heavy surgical mask my wife brought from her job at an AFB hospital. i am autistic and have found these have plenty of room, seal well, a good nose bridge, plenty of adjustment and I can breathe in one all day even while working out. Since the instructions are only a simple graphic, it's a bit of a puzzle to figure out initially, but once I got it, I'm extremely happy. I have a smallish face for a man and have no problem getting a good seal now that I've learned how to use the smaller loops to tighten the fit. I'm confused by critical reviews complaining about difficulty breathing, fuzz and fit, but I also noticed complaints by people that did not get the actual LG product, which can definitely explain a lot of issues. For those complaining that these are not surgical grade masks, a large proportion of the "N95" and "KN95" surgical masks sold on Amazon are counterfeit and provide less protection than the LG Airwasher. True N95 and KN95's are much harder to breathe through. I've talked to a number of hospital workers who are wearing this mask who do so because they can wear it all day without discomfort and it provides more than sufficient protection outside a Covid ward.

I have been wearing these masks for 4 years due to them being listed on the CDC website as approved for their protection. They are comfortable and easy to breathe in. High quality masks and adjustable. I just wish the adjustment was on the ear loop itself because depending on the size of your face part of the loop will stick out in the front side of the mask. My face is small so I just had double ear loops until I put some coiled adjusters from another mask on the ear loops. Will continue ordering since they are comfortable and offer good protection.

I had wanted to try these for a long time, and I finally ordered them for a recent vacation. Pros: * Individually wrapped, so no worries about contamination when you have to empty your bag to find something, and easy to keep one packed for just in case use. * Adjustable elastic, gives a better fit. * Sturdy material, holds up to all day wear, damp weather, and lots of off and on behavior. I felt more secure and safer when I wore this mask compared to a similar style that was not as sturdy, and the adjustable elastic was easier on my tired ears than a kn95 style. This is now my preferred protection against crowds!

This mask is adjustable, so you can get a very good, secure, gapless fit unless you are a child or have a really tiny face. This mask covers well below the chin and fits tightly at the nose so no glasses fogging. However, the mask secures with elastics on each side that tighten the sides of the mask in conjunction with shortening the earloops. So the more you tighten the elastics to make the mask hug your face, the more it shortens the earloops. I have a smallish face, and I can tighten this mask to fit really well, but after 30 minutes or so it becomes really uncomfortable at the ears. Also, the adjustable elastics can’t be tucked into the mask without destroying the “seal,” so they just sit there at the sides of your face - not the most attractive look. It’s also easy to confuse the earloops with the elastics you’re tightening, requiring a lot of adjustment. Overall I liked these masks, but I won’t buy them again, I’ll look for something good for smaller faces.

Highly recommend these for comfort, ease of use, filtration and performance. They do not restrict you from being active because you can easily breathe and they do not overheat your face excessively. Aesthetically they don’t look crazy like the duck-billed N95 and aren’t a bulky obstacle on your face. After wearing out my first UA sportsmasks (daily use and washing) I wanted something different. Tried an assortment of micro-filtration masks and coverings and without finding anything comfortable enough for extended usage. So I went back to the UA mask, which is bulky, but very light, breathable and comfortable. Summers in the SE are hot and humid and they aren’t great for summer wear. Have not tested the newer, slimmer version, it may resolve those problems. While (unsuccessfully) trying to source some N95, these KF94’s were purchased on a whim. A ten pack of these and a couple of different KN95’s were ordered at the same before our first flights since March 2020. We wanted to stay protected and be comfortable, so we needed some options. One of the KN95’s were too small for my long face and the other was too stressing on my ears. My wife was able to use both, so not wasted, but we were both able to comfortably wear the KF94’s. The brilliant design makes a far more universal fit. There’s a better seal to face at the top of mask, inhibiting the troublesome “steamy-glass syndrome.” These are half the cost of a “wearable” KN95 mask I purchased early part 2021 (, quarter of the cost from summer 2020), but are ten times more comfortable. My UA mask is very comfortable, but for $30 I could buy 20 of these masks. These are a great value. It’s not uncommon for the straps to separate from the KN95, not the case here. Hopefully I don’t jinx myself, but we have not had one “break” yet. In the last 10 weeks I have been on more than 20 flights, spending far too many hours in airports and airplanes wearing this mask. I have not complained once. Now making my third purchase of these KF94’s and have stored my UA mask in my carryon bag for emergencies.
