Trend Airshield Respirator

[Nate Rogers]

Hello All,
I know one thing this forum is great for is the discussion of safety, I have been looking for a better way to filter dust out of my workshop. I ran accross this product, and I was wondering if anyone uses, or has seen one of these. I used a similar product when I was in college, I spent a summer doing a internship at a mining company. It worked real well, but I am sure it was faaaar more expensive that this. All feedback welcome
Nate

General opinion is that it is well worth the money.
Some would rather use the $ to buy a few thousand paper filters.
Some don't need filters - they claim to be able to hold their breath for a really long time.

I use it and I love it. Once you get it adjusted I actually forget it's on...

I have one and use it. I mostly got it because I wear glasses and it was the best thing I could find to protect my eyes and not fog up like would happen when i tried regular safety glasses over mine. Its a lot easier to put on then dust mask & a second pair of glasses (that would fog).
