Respro Techno Anti-Pollution Mask - Extra Large - Black

I have COPD and on oxygen 24 hrs day. I also have really bad allergies. When you combine these two issues together and any one or more of the ozone, particulates, and pollens range into the yellow or higher, I cannot go outside. With this mask and filter I have been able to go outside and walk with no affects of allergies or the weighing down of my lungs from the pollution or ozone. I use this with my oxygen canula without issues. Of course there is more effort to draw air in through the mask than there would be without the mask, but I am hoping it will help to strengthen my lungs more. Great product and great - quick - seller!

I purchased the Respro Techno Mask with Techno Filter (size XL) specifically for cycling. I carefully followed the sizing guide and, at the company’s request, provided my biometric measurements and photos. Their customer service confirmed that XL was the correct size for me. Despite the correct sizing, the mask was extremely uncomfortable during actual cycling. The rigid metallic nose bridge created strong pressure on my nasal bridge and restricted airflow when riding in a forward-leaning position on the bike. Because the strap sits under the ears, gravity tends to pull the mask downward, which increases pressure even more on the rigid metallic nose bridge and makes the mask uncomfortable to wear. Even when adjusted properly, the mask became painful to wear and difficult to breathe through. I contacted the company and fully cooperated by providing measurements, photos, and trying the adjustments they suggested. Unfortunately, my repeated requests for a return and refund were refused. Eventually I had to resolve the situation through my credit card provider, which ruled in my favor and refunded the purchase after reviewing the documentation. Before purchasing, I recommend that potential buyers take a moment to research broader customer feedback about this brand and product. You can find many detailed experiences from other users online, including on Trustpilot, where the company currently has a very low rating and where multiple customers describe similar issues regarding fit, breathing comfort, and customer service responses. Based on my personal experience with both the product and the handling of the complaint, I would not purchase from this brand again.

Fits fabulously, and is comfortable all day long. Just make sure you remember to unscrew the valves, and take out the filter, before you hand-wash the mask itself with a drop of dawn liquid soap. Rinse repeatedly in lukewarm water, then air-dry in a warm, well-ventilated room before you use it for the first time.

TO BE UPDATED I have been testing out various masks on and off for the past month, and I have to say I love the utility of this mask. It does a great job of blocking out smells and allergies, and I use it around my friends who smoke and don't "taste" it. Which leads me into a few bad things about this mask. When I use it, my nose is usually blocked up, but breathing through your nose with this mask (regardless the size) seems to be difficult at best. And since it only has a single strap wrapping around your neck, keeping it in place and proper tends to be hit and miss. It is comfortable and after a while of wearing it, the sweat that builds up isn't too noticeable. More to come as I continue testing it.

If it is humid or raining, this thing cause asphyxiation. I noticed it hard to breathe in dry stints as well, enough that it caused a lot of yawning, and a pull over to the side of the road in order to pull the filter. The nose piece is nothing like the one in their foggy mask, which worked well for me in the past. Tried to return, they want you to pay shipping and a re-stocking fee.

I haul coal for a living and when I go to unload I tend to end up breathing in a lot of "dust" in the air... this is an issue weather it's coal or dirt, most dust masks suck into your mouth or nose causing it to be difficult to breath...since beginning to wear this filter system I have been able to breath better both as I work and after... and yes heavy use requires Monthly replacement of filters!
