Was this voted down because they're bad quality? Or just because the price is high?

No idea but I suspect because it's made in China & price.

I think it's the price. You can get them a little cheaper on eBay. I got an order last week from a US seller. It arrived in 4 days.

Did the package look exactly the same with the shield picture? There are some fake Powecom ones around too that have N95 and then Chinese characters.

Same packaging, color and graphics except it says "(NON-MEDICAL)" where the model number appears in this listing. The model number appears on the back of the package and also on each mask. I believe "non-medical" refers to the April tests which stated NIOSH does not approve ear loops for medical use, only head straps. However, ear loop styles are on the FDA's June 11 list of non-NIOSH approved imported masks from China linked above. In other words, it meets the filtering requirement but has ear loops.

Yes, I was able to look that up today too and the CDC did indeed test these with earloops as seen in their report pics. How do you like the seal on yours, particularly the nose clip? How much cheaper did you get it? Thanks.

Looks like these KN95 masks were independently tested by the State of Massachusetts. Not quite a 95% filtration result, but much closer than many others.

Test #1 - 92%
Test #2 - 90.6%

Thanks for sharing. Looks like many of the masks even far from being 95% are definitely better than nothing or simple paper/cloth.

$5 cheaper for 10 pack. These look like a coffee filter on your face. The fit is good for me. The nose wire is comfortable but thick enough to keep its shape once you bend it. The mask rests half way on the bridge of my nose, which means the nose pads of my sunglasses or eyeglasses rest on top of the mask. That's good because it prevents the glasses from slipping down. Air seal is tight and airflow is fair. It does puff in and out with a deep breath, which may not be desirable to some.

I bought these off ebay seller for about half the price. Awesome masks, fit on my face is really tight and can feel that the air is going through the filter and not out the side due to it puffing out when I breathe.

EDIT: FYI, mine came in a clearly marked and official looking bag. Very comfortable that it was not counterfeit.
