3M 8511 Particulate Sanding Respirator N95 Review
These masks look good and appear to be well made (being an M3 product and all). I purchased them to put in a emergency/earthquake kit. They are packed all in one plastic bag (rather than individually) inside a box. I would recommend this as a good, inexpensive mask/respirator.

Good construction, the exhalation valve works as advertised to reduce condensation from respiration. My only complain is that the respirator is a little too big for my medium size face, thus it is uncomfortable to wear glasses with the respirator. Four stars because of the oversize issue, I wish there were a smaller size for 3M 8511, that would be perfect for me and I would give five stars.

Although, (fortunately) we have not had to use these, they are constructed well and are everything that they are advertised to be and I feel confident in having them if we did need them.

I would consider these masks of higher quality over the standards at the box stores. Strong but not tight straps and securely attached, many of the rubber band type straps break and or pull out of the staple on other lower quality masks. Nice breathing feature reduces fog up with goggles and the mask is constructed of a nice soft material. Very comfortable! Only reason why I didn’t give them 5 stars is because they’re a little high in price.

I make a lot of dust in my woodworking shop and am careful to ALWAYS wear a dust mask. Once you develop a wood allergy, it never goes away so I am very careful to use this mask. First, if you are going to wear a mask all the time, it has to be comfortable. The #8511 is soft and with the adjustable nose-fit feature, it conforms snugly to the contours of my face. The two elastic straps provide snug but not over-tight contact and, with a little care, I get a close enough fit so that my exhalations do not fog up my safety glasses. The masks are durable and I typically can wear one all day, every day for several weeks (as long as I don’t sneeze while wearing it!). The masks appear to effectively remove even fine sanding dust as the inside remains clean and I have developed no allergies after many years of usage. Thanks for another fine product 3M!
