    Man, I gotta say that the fact you are giving accurate and fair reviews on masks that you are not selling at all speaks rather well about you. Aaron Collins and you should totally do a video together, much respect and thankfully I was able to find the KF94 Good Manner ones in Canada where I live. I have subscribed

    I paid close attention to the young man doing the testing. I honestly feel that I have ordered the right mask to protect me from this terrible Coronavirus/Omicron. Plus, I have had my three vaccines.
    Thank you, Mr. Armbrust and those who work with you to help protect us in what indeed is our time of need.

      Absolutely agree that these videos are great and informative, but the reality is that the algorithm skews towards content that isn’t favorable to mask wearing. I will just leave it at that.

    I just started following. I've been looking for masks. There a lot of fakes out there with so many claims. I just did a Google search somehow found this RUclips page. I was really impressed. Going over all the details. Explaining the PA numbers etc. On top of that Lloyd is really funny! Especially when he tries to explain what he smells like. A+ Company. I'm really liking it. Going to be ordering some Masks now I found what I like! Thank you for all your hard work!!

    The Armbrust are N95 with head straps and pink surgical only masks I buy! They fit great and are breathable!!I love getting text notifications when they are back in stock and I really appreciate the discount code. I'm a single mother of an immunocompromised child, so I have to have them readily available! Thank y'all for making them right here in The USA!!

    This is indeed an excellent mask. I would second using this for high stakes situations. For me the seal does cause pressure on the nose and cheek bone after a few hours. I'm going to send some masks in, hopefully they provide some good test material.

    I bought the non plus version of this Gerson mask from your website and had some problems with it on my flight yesterday. When I first put on - I was adjusting it on my face and heard a tiny rip sound, but looked all over and it looked fine so pressed ahead with entering airport. Mid flight I noticed it puts a lot of pressure on my nose. On the plus side - it’s very breathable and fit snugly around my face so that’s a huge win. Big negative - by end of my flight I felt something poke my hand as I adjusted my glasses. The nose wire had slipped out of its stitched sleeve and was pointing out of my mask. I feel like this great mask had some shoddy construction but maybe I just had bad luck. Will keep trying because I want it to live up to its reputation. Thanks for the reviews.

      Update: After 3 more flights and more of these masks I did not have any more trouble with the nose wire. They sealed my face air tight and I trusted them to keep me well while lots of people were coughing a lung on my flight. Only negative is it does press on the bridge of your nose a lot so you have to get used to that. Solid mask!

    We purchased these masks for a trip so we could wear N95s on the plane. They're good masks, but I have one complaint -- those elastic bands *snap* way too easily. Almost every mask from the box has had to be replaced prematurely. When one band snaps, you can move the other one to the high back of your head and it stays on (albeit with a less ideal seal); the other band often snaps as well before the end of the day.

    • @ArmbrustUSA
      @ArmbrustUSA  2 года назад +1

    I got a sample of these ( maybe it wasn't the + ) the strap having a rubber feel and smell made me hesitate. I have a latex contact sensitivity (the joys of working as LPN in the 90s with latex powdered gloves). Interesting that it smells like rubber, yet isn't.

    Does the fact that the straps come out from the inner side of the mask break the seal at all? I feel like it would create a gap for air to come through on the sides, but I'm no expert in this stuff. Just something I've noticed when wearing these, wondering if it's something I need to worry about
