It's been 5 days since my order. Yesterday I received an exception notification that delivery couldn't be made because of the locked apartment building door. I text Office Depot CS and long story short, CS assures me the driver will come back around today and deliver--and notify me with a call. No delivery today. I reach out to CS again and their initial reply was that delivery was made. The frustrating part with today's text conversation, it seemed the rep had no clue or insight to the conversation I had yesterday. Think about it, if it was delivered, why did I send you the screenshot of your email informing me of a delivery exception?! Your own system told me there was a delivery exception! And now, it's delivered? Where? Ugh.

I never had problems with the powecon straps, I don't know what others are doing wrong. I have to take off my hat and glasses for the head straps but ear loops are a lot easier.
My soap box here for a second, I'm in non-acute care health care, so, we're not dealing directly with Covid patients other than when our residents catch it. (Multiple outbreaks over the past several months) My role over the past year has been to be the primary point of contact for acquiring PPE for our organization. I think it's completely ridiculous that a year into this and health care organizations like mine are still having to scramble to find things like KN95's, wonder about their authenticity, and beg and borrow to get even a small supply of N95's. We've seen about 3 boxes of legit 3M medical masks the whole time and the rest have been N95 masks intended for non-medical industrial use.
The state recently got us some PPE to help out. 20 "N95's" that are foldable style but with head straps so they may or may not be legit, and about 120 KN95 masks that are labeled "N95" and are clearly neither of the above. Oh, yeah, they also got us a some hand wipes and a 5 gallon cube of hand sanitizer. You know, with all that evidence about surface transmission.
It should be 10-15 cents apiece. You wear it for an hour and then throw it.
I have these masks, verified to be authentic through powecom's website. They are not junk, the straps do not come off. These so far are the most comfortable masks I've bought, that still actually filter.
I have a few other no name "KN95" masks, that do exactly as you describe, perhaps you are confusing these powecom masks with those?

The whole point isn't really to add more layers, it's to get a tighter fit. N95, KF94 and KN95 masks inherently have a tighter fit, provided you have the right sized mask.

Yes. I use the headband style since they seal better and have had zero issues. I use them maybe...10 times, 4 days apart and rotate them. This is the only reasonably priced, approved brand that fits well. For me. No COVID and I'm out in a grocery store once to twice per week but early A.M. staying away from people. This is NOT intended use or following correct instructions but I still "feel" even with reduced protection that the seal alone is far, far better than the surgical or cloth masks most wear.
