Ordered some black ones to try out. Middle of the road in terms of cost. Everyone seems to be obsessed with that 50-pack from jp-genuine on eBay. This is also half the price of the powecom ones and this still has FDA registration/certification.

They come individually packaged from the looks of it like legitimate medical gauze pads etc., Just plan on using it in case I fly/travel instead of surgical masks. Will give an update once I receive them and can compare to a 3M N95 medical mask I have.

How do these compare to the powercom and does FDA Registration and Certification mean the FDA has tested and approved them to be a N95/95% filtration?

So haven't really used it yet real-world wise, as I said I'm reserving them for plane rides soon when I do eventually get on one for a vacation.

Fit wise, it's not bad, but definitely not as secure as the 3M N95 on my face at least. There's a possibility tiny tiny gap/leak on the sides if you exhale really hard. Think it's just due to the fact that it's ear loops and not the double full head strap kind of design, so it's a trade-off of comfort vs tightness.

Breathing is a bit easier than the 3M N95, but I'm not sure if that's due to the kinda crow looking design which gives a larger pocket of breathing/air and that it's less tight on the face.

Overall, kind of as expected and better than a surgical mask, but not as good as a 3M N95.

They do come individually packaged/sealed as described with a QC certificate for each one if that matters Dontknow

Would one of those head strap hooks, that grab each ear loop and pulls them secure behind the head, help the side gap situation?

Probably, but as I said the gap isn't really that large or noticeable. It's just not an absolute suction/vacuum seal like the 3M N95.

It was mainly noticeable if I exhaled extremely hard, the air would force itself out the sides. Breathing normally, I didn't really notice.

Could be my face shape/size, but I think it's just the fact that it isn't as structured and rigid.

They sell these ear saver hooks on their site for only $2.99 (pack of 8), much cheaper than Amazon.

Avoid the jp-genuine kn95 masks, they have been skimping on materials since they first started selling them. I got a batch when they were $15 and they were decent, but the recent $12.88 batch that I just received today is significantly thinner and smaller than the previous batch, and the plastic bags for the masks aren't even sealed tight, just with sticky tape. https://imgur.com/a/X4xdETv

I ordered these a while ago, and thought I'd share my notes. Before I do, my summary is that these are excellent masks at a great price. The product is genuine (exactly as described, model # LM07 printed on outer box) and the seller is based in San Francisco with lots of posts on social media about providing PPE to local charities and hospitals. No red flags anywhere.. neither product nor seller.
