MIRA Safety CM-I01 Full-Face Industrial-Grade Gas Mask with 40mm NATO Filter Compatibility and Advanced Valve Design

I ended up ordering two of these Mira Safety masks via Harpy Eagle during the Prime Day sale. I believe the deal was reasonable and you’re getting your money’s worth.Both masks arrived individually boxed and there was no damage from the delivery transit. I bought one for my wife and myself for a just in case.I conducted a face seal test and it worked properly. It’s a “one size fits all” and was originally concerned of the fit, especially because my wife has a small size face. Mine is generally a Medium when it comes to gas masks. I also had my wife do a seal test and a proper seal was established. Overall the mask is comfortable and didn’t make us feel like you’re wearing a dive mask. There was initially a weird “sweet” smell, but after letting it air out for a bit the smell dissipates.For the price point, the cost for this mask is reasonable and of good solid quality. It’s made in Italy and I couldn’t find any subpar material utilized. Yes, you can find other masks at half the price, but these are made in China masks and I’m always wary about the materials and possible chemicals they might utilize. Last thing you need is to have an overt allergic reaction from wearing the thing.If you’re not familiar with using full faced masks I recommend that you practice putting it on and taking it off. Overall it’s a pretty easy straight forward process to put it on and tightening the head harness.For those looking for a CBRN (NBC) gas masks, this isn’t it, but is rated for most industrial standards.I decided to forgo purchasing CBRN masks for a couple of reasons. One, if you buy the more expensive rated ones, you will need a CBRN rated protective clothing, in which you will need properly rated foot wear and gloves.By the the time you have purchased all the items you would have spent a grand $$$$ or more just for one complete CBRN set. I have purchased a four Mira Safety CBRN rated gas filters and four P-can filters.My reasoning for not going full blown doomsday commando is because, if a hostile country uses corrosive type persistent chemicals weapons or a nuclear weapon, you’re more than likely not going to survive. I have formal extensive CBRN training from my military days and there’s a lot more into surviving such attacks than just putting on the protective gear. Think about “decontamination procedures”…I won’t go into specifics, but it’s just not realistic for me to buy all the military grade gear and attempting to survive such an ordeal. Hopefully if it comes down to it, our enemies will not use deadly WMDs, but I do worry about biological weapons, which is why I bought these masks…Hoping is just a delayed reaction to disappointment, but it doesn’t hurt to be prepared. Good luck and Stay safe!

The visibility you get out of this mask is second to none. I originally bought it for a halloween costume but have found it exceptionally useful for household tasks with chemicals. It's well built and I can absolutely attest that there are no leaks in this mask while maintaining really good comfort. It's very easy to clean as well.

Field of view = excellentIt was LEO tested and approved

excellent face protection and breathing protection in a comfortable format. can be put on and taken off easily and does not hinder work.

The biggest downside for me? The smell. It has that strong, synthetic odor you'd expect from a Halloween-store mask—not exactly what you want in a professional-grade respirator.The fit and finish also leave something to be desired. The plastic connection point for the 40mm filter wiggles and makes noise. The overall face section feels very generic—like a one-size-fits-all design. While that might work for universal applications, it doesn’t quite suit my narrower face. I was hoping for something a bit more tailored.On the plus side:The swivel connector for the head strap makes it easy to position. The thick rubber strap holds tension well and doesn’t loosen over time. Field of view is excellent.The base plastic feels sturdy and impact-resistant (though I don't plan on testing that personally).Overall, it fits the description as advertised, but for me, it feels too spacious in ways that impact comfort and confidence. Still, it’s a solid mask with good features—just not a perfect fit for everyone.

Something you might wanna have in your closet just in case something happened.

Generally speaking this is a well built mask, comparable in quality to name brands such as 3M or Honeywell. Takes universal 40mm filter and fits the face quite well.However there is a serious flaw with this model and it’s due to the fact that it’s designed and made differently than any other respirator on the market regardless of price.Usually full face respirators would have a two-chamber construction, on that covers mouth and nose, and the other covers the eye. Upon inhaling, fresh air would enter from the filter and pass through a non-return valve from the eye chamber to the nose/mouth chamber, clearing up any foggy or humid air in the way. And when exhaling, the valve would prevent hot humid air to go back towards the eye chamber but to exit directly from the mouth chamber.There is no such valve in this mask, so whenever you exhale the hot air would rise and fog up the entire visor. Their marketing claim is that they employed a super low resistance flap that would allow the hot air to exhaust directly from the mouthpiece and to breathe in easily. In theory it might’ve worked, but in practice this is absolutely not true. Once you use the mask for a while and the antifog layer is used up it becomes completely unusable.It’s also funny to see that their higher end models respirators all having the non-return valve and being marketed fog free design as well. So why they they attempted to fix something that wasn’t broken? Respirators have been working for decades with the non-return valve design. So it’s either a really messed up design, lack of real world test or they intentionally crippled this model for being the cheapest tier in their lineup.

From the moment I opened the package, I knew I had made the right choice. I was genuinely thrilled—it was exactly what I hoped for (maybe even better)! The quality is outstanding, the details are spot-on, and you can tell it was made with care.I’ve been using it every day since it arrived, and I can’t stop recommending it. It brings a smile to my face every time I see it! If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate—this is absolutely worth it!
