RZ Mask M2.5 Unboxing & Review
#rzmask #dustmask #woodworking #woodworker #toolreview #productreview

In this video we are unboxing and reviewing the M2.5 by RZ Mask - which is in my opinion the best dust mask on the market. The M2 is also very strong in my opinion, but the dual straps on the 2.5 make it the BEST there is. I hope this review helps you to make a decision on your next purchase and THANK YOU so much for watching!!

Excellent review. A little long, but covered it all even a comparison to the original mask.
You can make any strap "sticky" like the spare straps by applying a small strip of silicon caulking or a few drops of hot glue.
I do that to dirt bike goggles, scuba mask etc

I will be be buying these through your site. Very detailed information.

I already purchased the RZ M2.5 mask but it has yet to arrive. Still, I wanted to get a better idea of what to expect. I have the M2 with a single wide neck strap, but it feels like it rides down a bit. That is probably largely due to my wearing a bandana over it while at work. (During the pandemic they don't want us using valved masks that vent unfiltered air, so I offered covering with the bandana as a compromise.) I have worked with a number of masks and especially like those with a strap behind the neck and a strap up over the head, and was even modifying the straps on other masks so they would work that way. Glad to see that is what this is doing, and I can't wait for it to arrive. The RZ mesh masks are light, the mesh is comfortable, the filters create a great 360 seal and are easy to breath through, and the valves keep the mask from getting warm and moist. These straps? They should make this the perfect mask!

I feel like the XL fits better also. I am over 215 but not really showing up as a fathead. My nose is too big! It took me a minute to get the mask on the right spot of nose. You really should put it pretty high up on the bridge. Doing this the filter does not cover my chin well with the L. They sort of explain the filter fit on their website but they could do a little better job to emphasize.

Glad I watched this video before ordering. I too have a big ol head. In the Army I was a few sizes from the largest hat they issued.

[maxmaximus]

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. It just takes a little bit longer to arrive because of the Covid 19 problem with everyone ordering them I'm told. Can't wait, looks exactly what I ordered.

Good informed review. I also have the giant head syndrome. I'm going to order the m2.5 today.
I tried the Trend mask and after 15 mins I took it off. Didn't feel like it sealed around my face and it was uncomfortable.

[craigphillips]

I'm thinking that your glasses don't fog up because your exhale is going out of the vents (pointed down) and not out the top of the mask. It's the warm moist air hitting your cooler glasses that causes them to fog up.

I have bad hay fever and bought a knockoff version last year for doing yardwork. It was a huge help for me. I may have to get the M2.5 and see if that's even better.

[CaptPlanet]

Make sure you buy the this one, the 2.5. It has 2 straps instead of one and it really is necessary for a good seal around the mouth

[jacknifedbl]

I have had the older first gen rz mask that was made for artic cat they are nice the newer style are pretty awesome also

[MarineMike]

Apparently I've got a big head too.. I received the large and it didn't fit as good as I thought it should have. So now I'm going to order the XL 2.5 mask. Btw, great review.

I have an M2 that fog my glasses no matter what I do. Like a comment below, I think my nose is too big. When I pull the mask down to fit glasses, my nose is pinched and respiration is difficult. Via email RZMask suggested that I try an M2.5 with two straps. This was a while ago. When I went to the website to purchase said M2.5 none were available. I just checked the link that you provide with similar result: "Sold Out." I now have a 3M 7503 with the pink dust covers, which block 100% of everything below 0.3mm, hence the P100 disignation, that fit into the cartridge holes without the extra volume and weight of the standard cartridges in the plastic container. The mask is much lighter with just the dust covers and I am able to check the seal every time I put it on. Further, I can adjust it such that my glasses are in the correct place. Mark Spagnolo "The Wood Whisperer" has an excellent video on youtube where I learned about the dust cover and how to test. Lowes was the only place that had these filters on the shelf. Everywhere else that I have looked have them as special order. I have been using that configuration since no M2.5 was available and will probably not only forgo purchase of the M2.5, but also dispose of my M2.

You shouldn’t get any dust in you while you’re using this mask right cuz I use a regular n95 for heavy dust exposure will this be better?

[CaptPlanet]

I've also had a bit of success using my snowboard goggles anti fog coating to keep my safety glasses from fogging up

[montanawhite]

I work in landscaping on a tree crew. We are always chipping branches and trees and green waste. Also chainsawing and lots of work including sawdust and regular dirt dust. I’m interested in one of these masks but wonder how easy it is to remove them from your mouth area. Do I have to take off the mask every time or can I pull it down making it hang from my neck? Work in Hawaii in the hot sun and don’t want to wear a mask covering my face all day when I don’t need it. Don’t want to take off my helmet, ear protection and glasses off just to take off my dust mask.

[pitbulltaz]

Wait, how much are they bro? Do I need to go to another video to get the price? LOL, I'm disabled and have trouble navigating social media stuff. I'll check the description for another video. Thank you.

[khoale]

That looks like a great mask to get but one thing I want to know is the round black plastic inside the mask, doesn't it rub or feels uncomfortable when Ur wearing the mask?

[UT]

Good review. I've been thinking about these for awhile. Mostly I've been waiting for them to get the NIOSH N95 eating to their filters because I do demo and get exposed to more than just wood working dust.... So this is something I really want to use because comfort aids in use and effectiveness

[myscreennameis]

Great video. My only suggestion is take a little more time on showing size comparison. Had I found your video earlier, it would've saved me tons of money!! Just lay the two side by side and let people really see what a huge difference there is between sizes. Other than that, great video!! Also, ONLY buy from rzmask.com anyone else is a scam!!

[maggytamney]

Hi there do they make smaller ones for women? my face would be quite petite, I laser cut wood so mainly want to be 100% safe from very fine dust particles :) Thanks PS do they ship to Ireland? or UK?
