I purchased the mask because of the review by Steve Good at the Scrollsaw Workshop. It is very comfortable and you don’t even know you are wearing it. I have asthma and the fine sawdust affects it, but using the mask eliminates the attacks. The Totobobo beats all the disposables I used before.

I am attending a week-long pastel class with about 12 other pastelists. By mid-week there is so much pastel dust in the air that you start to feel its effects. I am so happy to have found the solution with your mask. THANK YOU!

I’m an artist who works with pastels and charcoal. The metals in the pastels can be dangerous, so I decided to wear a mask.

I am a pastel artist but have severe asthma, so I struggle with pastel dust irritating my lungs. Other masks fog up and are uncomfortable. I believe this mask will make all the difference.

I heard about the Totobobo mask at an art association meeting. I currently wear a mask from the hardware store — looking forward to trying this one.

As an artist aware of health issues when dealing with potentially hazardous materials, I always seek protection. Confidence that one is actually safer makes for better concentration while working.

I do wood and acrylic turning, which can generate a very fine dust. This is the most comfortable mask I have found.

I am a full-time woodturner. I chose your mask because my Triton Respirator is no longer manufactured and I cannot get spare parts — I’m hoping this will be a suitable replacement.

I chose Totobobo because of the design, and I am buying this for my carpenters. They work for me with passion, and I found them suffering because of the dust involved.

I’m an engineering manager who analyzes every purchase. On specifications, description, and user reports this device is hands down a winner: less obtrusive, more effective, re-useable, and a reasonable price for an engineered product. It will also prove useful for my woodworking and boat maintenance.

I am finding it difficult to breathe with it on; it feels like I am trying to breathe in a sauna. Is this something most people get used to? I just don’t think I can use it.

Our response: for stationary studio work, the higher-airflow F92 filter grade noticeably reduces breathing effort, and exhaling through the nose keeps humidity down. Honest feedback like Sue’s is why our fitting guide now covers breathing technique first.
