PD-101 Full Face Organic Vapor Respirator – Full Manufacturer Warranty – ASTM Tested – Double Activated Charcoal Air filter – Eye Protection – Industrial Grade Quality.

The respirator works as intended and performed beautifully! As an Environmental & Waterworks Operator who works for a chicken processing plant, I can say without a doubt that this mask has helped me in places where Organic and Chemical fumes are the strongest. So long as the mask has been tightly secured and adjusted appropriately, it'll do the job in filtering the air you need to breathe safe and sound.The respirator was put through a 48 hour trial run and introduced to areas where chemical and harmful organic fumes are known to be more concentrated and again I can confirm, the respirator performed beautifully. Not too expensive yet not too cheap. Fits snug on the face and easy to adjust! My crew is already wanting ones for themselves so I highly recommend this product for someone who wants something that meets in the middle as far as price goes.

First the good:*Super good looking*Easy to breathe*Visor didn't fog*Excellent customer serviceMy family loved this mask and found it quite comfortable. It also looks great and I don't know what magic makes the visor not fog, but it works well. With the discount added for the holidays, this was a fantastic value.And then the bad:*Didn't fit my apparently big giant head.I'm a 6ft, 265lb man. I served in the military and have some experience wearing similar style masks in the Army. This mask just did not fit my face. The top strap was at the extreme end of its length. The side straps only had maybe two detents left to adjust. The part I really couldn't tolerate was the fit with my face. The rubber seal crossed the outside edge of my eye sockets. The mouth portion of the mask was too low to make my nose uncomfortable and too high, making talking a jaw workout. The rest of my face was squeezed through the facial opening like a fat volcano about to erupt.I go snorkeling a few times a year and have no problem wearing either full or partial face masks. This one just wasn't for me.Amazon has a no return policy because somebody (me) smashed my face on it. Understandable. I wrote Parcil Safety directly asking if they had any other way to make it fit or for suggestions and they were so nice. They immediately said it sounded too small and issued me a prepaid return label, followed by a full refund.I wouldn't turn anyone away from one of these unless they have a large head. They are built sturdy and provide great airflow. They look incredibly good. They have a few different models if you want to connect to different style cartridges.The insanely good customer service on top of all this makes it an easy choice.

I use this respirator when spraying a variety of different fungicides and pesticides onto about 100 fruit trees in my home orchard. The respirator is a little tricky to put on because the straps need to be attached before putting it onto your head. Trying to attach the straps after the respirator is on your head is almost impossible without assistance. However, the straps are very flexible and can be stretched easily so that the respirator can be pulled on over your head by stretching the straps. Once it’s in place, the straps can be tightened or loosened easily to get a tight seal against your face. Trying to get the mask on initially took a bit of trial and error and to figure this out and in the process, the silicone type straps tended to grab and pull my hair painfully. It is quite easy to remove when you are finished using it by just releasing the strap bindings.This is the best respirator that I have ever used for my home orchard in the past 20 years. It does not fog up from breathing or perspiring. The cartridges are long lasting, but easy to attach and replace when needed. The cartridges completely remove all residual chemical odor from sprayed chemicals. The visor protects your eyes and entire face from any sprayed chemicals.

EXPERIENCE TO DATEI work as a lawn technician applying chemicals. Works great, no issues there. Can be uncomfortable if put on incorrectly, or if worn too long under a lot of motion (i.e. extended running, getting bumped off center).Gets very sweaty in hot conditions, and it is very difficult to communicate beyond 2 yards, and impossible without yelling in noisy environments (i.e. running motors). You get used to the heat in the mask after a couple weeks.Unboxing it one of the adjustment buckles broke, thankfully it comes with replacements. No other parts have broken so far.SUGGESTIONS FOR USERSLeave the plastic film that comes on the visor; do not remove. Has proven very handy as a visor protector.As for maintenance, simply hosing it down with a lawn hose or kitchen sink sprayer has proven maintenance enough. Air dries after about an hour, but leaves white stains of the flouride in the water on plastic components. May be partially resolved by using a cotton cloth to wipe it during/ after wash.CONCLUSIONGood for my line of work, would not recommend for any rough use. Description of product is accurate when stated, "not for military use."
