AIRQUEEN 3-Layers Nano-Filter Face Mask, White

I've lost track of how many different types and styles of masks I've tried, looking for that special one that provides protection and is comfortable to wear. The search is over; I've found my ideal mask with these. They provide better protection than the cloth masks that were semi-comfortable, and they're so comfortable that I sometimes forget I have it on. (Yes, I'm driving down the road, alone in my car, wearing my mask. What can I say. Just be glad you're not related to me.) I have a friend who is disabled and has difficulty wearing masks because of her disability and her asthma. I gave her one of these to try, and she loves them. She says it's the only mask she's been able to breathe in comfortably. Because of the 3-part construction and the wire in the nosepiece, coverage starts at the bridge of my nose and ends under my chin; and the sides fit snugly against my cheeks. The wire in the nosepiece enables me to adjust the mask to the bridge of my nose, with no fogging of my eyeglasses. Each mask comes individually wrapped in an air-tight sleeve, which you can slip your mask back into when you take it off. These are disposable masks, but I'll reuse the mask sometimes depending on the circumstances. If I've worn it only to do a quick in-and-back-out occasion (ie, dropping a letter off at the post office), I'll reuse it. If I've spent a lot of time in a crowded environment, I dispose of it. It really depends on the risk level and my comfort level.

The air queen website claims these masks using nano filter technology are 97% effective in stopping particles (which would make them better than N95's). Fortunately CBC news released a test of 14 mask brands (April 2, 2021) and this was one of them. Turns out the air queen brand fails the KF94 rating by 2% or less however that is still about twice the level of protection offered by standard masks while providing an all day easy to breath experience for those who wear them all day at work. Some brands claim to meet KF94 or KN95 standards but fail by huge amounts, but air queen is not one of them. If they were more upfront about exactly what these are and are not then I think that would translate into better reviews and more business.

Comfortable mask with lightweight material but still very effective. I wish it had adjustable loops to better fit it to my face.

I wanted to try this mask out of curiosity because I saw UK celeb Trinny Woodall on social media raving about this mask when she travelled on a plane. I was worried the fit would be too big as I have a small-ish face, 10 inches from ear to ear measured over the bridge of my nose. The mask fit just fine and it is easy to pull it tighter, if need be, by tying the side loops (simply by tying a little knot in each end). It doesn't show behind the ear, unless you have very short hair. I didn't find the mask easier to breath in, at least not easier than my double cloth face mask, but good if you want a disposal mask.

I believe we’re in for the long haul with not only Covid but various mutations so a comfy mask with highly rated safety is what I want and need. Without doubt I’ve found it with these! A previous type, the over ear bands were too short!! These fit just right.

I bought these for my 13 & 15 year old kids. They're too big. Not a good seal. Big air gaps on sides at the cheeks. They fit my face fine (adult male) confortably, though the nose wire does not form as well to my nose as other masks I have and therefore there is some leakage there that steams my glasses. They're very thin and sound "crinkly", though I don't doubt that they'd offer good protection if they sealed better. I guess I'll keep these in my car as spares, but was hoping for them to work for my kids since these can be reused by spraying with alcohol up to 10 times. Just FYI, the Alliable Medicak KF94s (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0891RQ21H/) fit my 15yo daughter reasonably well, though not so great for my 13yo son.

These are great. They are comfortable, I like how they are packaged. The best I've owned, I highly recommend these face mask.

Terrible mask I returned it last month. I just received an email that product needs to be returned by April 2. WTH! The return status shows that the product return is in transit. It’s not my fault that it seems to be stuck somewhere between UPS and the destination!
