This company was out of stock in January. I was forced to order masks from eBay while I was waiting so I wouldn't run out.
Order Date: Jan 5
Received Date: Feb 4
Keep this in mind when ordering. They're legit, but keeping stock was definitely a problem in January and they were not answering phones, ignoring email and essentially acting like customer support jerks during the process.
I had purchased two packs of these right before the omicron wave when they were abundant. Really good quality & pretty effective in my experience. In for another two.
Update: While checking the order confirmation email I came across this 😄

Thank you again!

Seems like they got a lot of bad rap for being unable to fulfill orders a couple months ago. I wonder how many people have reached out lol

Great masks... tested and confirmed to filter over 99% of particulates in air. That said, I'm also gonna wait for the price to come down. The Chinese company that makes these took advantage of low supplies and jacked the price up... so, eventually, as sales start to collapse, prices will inevitably start coming down to increase sales. These masks really should be no more than $1 USD per mask.
EDIT - Just wanted to add I gave a TU on the deal, since it's still the best deal going on genuine Powecoms in black if you need one - now - and cannot wait. So, OP still deserves credit on the deal.

I like these masks too, best fitting masks so far for me. Their kid masks also fit my 2.5 toddler best. We have a good stockpile for now so i'll wait for the price to come down a bit since the demand for them will be down with mask mandate being lifted.
Not going to get political about masks. Anyone has their own reason to choose, you do you.
Someone said they are nearing expiration. How can masks expire?
I'm concerned about fake N95 masks. These come from a Chinese company, but claim to have a sticker which you can use to verify authenticity. I suppose that's legit?

Powecoms sold via Bonafide are the real deal. There's a guy on YouTube that owns a fancy industrial particulate testing machine and he tested the Powecom KN95 mask (in black) and it tested to something like 99.8% filtration efficiency. Bonafide is an authorized seller - maybe the ONLY authorized seller in the USA. Soooo, if you buy a Powecom form Bonafide, then you should be getting a genuine KN95, and about the best KN95 and respirator, in general, available.
Note that this same YouTube guy tested KN95 masks on Amazon that only tested in the 60 some percent range... so clearly, not genuine 95% respirators. They are fakes. As far as expiration, there is a magnetic charge in the material... the masks efficiency, unused, should last in storage for years, but once used, the efficiency may decrease over time... but should still be quite effective (I'm just not aware of actual scientific testing of degradation of filtration over a specified period of usage).

I have these and they are fine for KN95 masks. I don't have a problem with them. They WERE a good deal when N95 masks were hard to find and were price gouged. But NOW it makes zero logical sense to buy these when you can buy legitimate 3M N95 masks for less money. Not to mention, you can get FREE legitimate N95 masks from CVS, Walgreens, etc. I just picked up a bunch of free Honeywell N95 masks from my CVS. Why would anyone rather get lesser masks and pay more for them???

You can read through the 719 comments here [facebook.com] to see how poor their customer service response was...
