Removed misinformation about the mask. It is correct these are not medical grade N95 masks as they do not provide fluid protection (as would be needed in an operating room). That is what makes medical grade N95s medical grade.
But, for use by those not in an operating room, these are perfectly good N95 masks that will provide the superior level of protection needed these days (compared to cloth and surgical masks).
Just make sure you follow the donning directions included with the masks to ensure you have a good seal!
If you look at the sellers other products specifically the other n95 masks all the reviews say it's made in China and comes used or damaged. I would stay away. Amazon doesn't do a good job of weeding out fake sellers.
The original ones are orange and literally called duck bill N95s.
Also we wore the same one forever, until it broke! Then it was sent for repairs... Disgusting what we had to do in the beginning d/t no supplies.
Thank a nurse, today and EVERYDAY for what we do... You ( all non-medical) have no concept of what we endured or what we're still dealing with.
Looks like a duck's bill

Indeed. We got these at the office when all this started. Couldn't take anyone seriously anymore. Every now and then you would here a random quack.
Regarding the mask, it's a pretty bad design actually. It retains a very large volume of exhaled air when breathing. Worse still, it doesn't hold it's structure much and deflates when inhaling. It's good for maybe 30 minutes until it becomes too uncomfortable to breathe with. I'd avoid. Stick with some decent KN95 like the Powcoms that are regularly listed here. Or better yet, get a 3M respirator before they also become unavailable.

Our friends can counterfeit everything, but no way to make N95 ?
The downside is these elastic bands break after a few uses.
N95 with the cloth elastic bands last much longer.
