BASE CAMP M Plus Dust Mask, Breathable Reusable Face Mask with 6 Activated Carbon Filters for Woodworking Construction Mowing Grinding (Modern1)

WOW. I work in dusty new construction and have always struggled with what to help block dust. For a while I gave up and did not use anything. This product was super inexpensive and had huge upside! It is super lightweight and fits my face perfect while using the nose adjuster. It is super comfortable and the first face mask that does not fog my glasses!!! I love that the pieces are removable for washing. Very easy assembly. Amazing purchase.

I am impressed by the product’s value for money. I recently tested it out for work purposes. As someone with severe allergies, I utilized it for its protective capabilities. It effectively shielded me throughout the day, and I felt a significant improvement in my well-being.One aspect that I found slightly irritating was the back strap. While it provided a snug fit initially, it became somewhat irritating after repeated head movements. I adjusted the strap to strike a balance between snugness and looseness, allowing for some movement. It is possible that this is a personal preference, but it was the only minor issue I encountered.Overall, I am highly satisfied with the product’s quality in terms of dust protection. Although it was slightly warm, it was not overly uncomfortable. In comparison to regular surgical masks, this product offers enhanced ventilation, which I greatly appreciate. I highly recommend it.

This is an excellent mask if you have moderate to severe pollen allergies. Spring and summer in the city is tremendously horrible for me and I work at a cabinet shop with saw dust flying around. With this mask I am able to do my work comfortably and stay that way. It effortlessly filters out pollen and fine dust supplying me with fresh air. The big draw back is after 4-8 hours of wearing this mask the exhausts collect a lot of condensation so if you move your head to fast or exhale rapidly you are going to spray something. Additionally if you want to use this mask while you are exerting yourself I would reconsider. I like to hike and while tackling some of the hills I can normally conquer easily despite their steep nature, with the mask I was sucking air like a madman. Had to take the mask off and catch some solid inhales raw. So in summary great mask for milling about, doing low effort activities, real bad for excercise.

Fits great, and breathing through it is reasonable.

This looked like a good design at first, and it has a few positive aspects like the ear loops that hold the mask on your face while you use two hands to close the Velcro straps around the back of your neck, however overall it doesn’t fit or filter well and it takes too long to adjust the neck strap. I have a short beard (8.5 mm) and the mask lets in more sanding dust than an N95 (Covid) mask ever did, which means the mask doesn’t have an adequate face seal. This mask breathes out easily enough, but in a dusty environment (woodworking sanding dust) the dust accumulates on the mask and all around the edges of the mask where dust bypasses the filter and enters the mask around the edge line. I stopped using mine after a couple weeks and went back to a 3M half-face respirator or the N95 masks I’ve used for 30 years. I don’t recommend this mask to woodworkers or anyone with a beard.

The dusk mask work well.

I had purchased this mask for yard work to filter out any dust. I liked the idea of the mask having ports when a person exhale so as not to fog up glasses or safety glasses. It sounds like the perfect product right? Well, in theory it sounds great, but in actuality it misses the mark. I read the directions that came with the mast regarding proper fit and replacing the filter. The fit is a little tricky, I would recommend putting the loops around the ears first then adjusting the strap around the neck. Do not set the strap around the neck too tight or the loops may come off around your ears. The mask has an "adjustable" nose piece. The nose piece is a flexible plastic and there is nothing adjustable about it. When I wore safety glasses they fogged up on exhaling my first breath. I decided to remove the filter and see if there might be an issue with the ports. Upon removing the ports there is a thin rubber diaphragm on the inside and if you do not install it correctly air will not exit the mask. It is a juggling act trying to get both the inside part and outside part of the port while sandwiching the mask and filter between them. If you do manage to get all the parts aligned and twist the port to lock, the filter gets twisting around the inside portion of the port. I ended up using the mask without wearing glasses for about two hours. The inside of the filter was damp borderline wet. That leads me to believe the ports do not work effectively. If you have heard the adage "You get what you pay for", it is 100% true.

Easy to put in… fits well… Velcro strap in back for easy adjustments
