ordered N95 masks

[redbird]

I just ordered a LOT of duckbill-style N95 masks from armbrustusa.com, taking advantage of a sale that someone mentioned on Ask a Manager a couple of weeks ago: Half off everything in November, with free shipping. Normally, the masks I ordered cost less from Project N95, but they charge for shipping, meaning that this time I am paying less than I would from Project N95 (though it's not a huge difference).

This sale applies to everything the company sells, including some own-brand surgical masks. I haven't done any price comparisons on other products, because we're pretty sure these masks are as good as we're going to find, given that we all prefer masks with the strap behind the head to ear loops.

I am, alas, pretty sure that we will need 300 N95 masks, soon enough that it makes sense to buy that many for a discount (six boxes for the price of five), and store them in our apartment.

Thanks! I was just starting to think that I should get some more soon.

Broadly speaking, I recommend Project N95. I've been ordering two boxes (of 50) at a time from them, because the shipping fee is the same for two boxes as for one.

That said, both sites carry the masks I (and Adrian and Cattitude) prefer, but I think Armbruster carries earloop-style KN95s, which Project N95 doesn't (the NIOSH N95 standard requires a headband); I didn't check whether Project N95 has masks Armbruster doesn't.
