Is a $30 face mask worth buying?

Now this a wearable. The Banale pollution mask solves three big issues I have. The first is I can wear it for more than one hour and breathe with ease as it is comfortable and well designed. The second is that it solves the glasses fogging up issue. The third is I can carry it easily around my neck when not in use. The mask claims to have an antiviral shield in the surround cover. So is it worth buying? Yes is the answer as the filter will last more than 2 months and I will be using this device everyday and it will stop a lot of disposable masks going to landfill. N95 protection, sales in excess of 200,000 so they must be doing something right .

I remember having a debate about buying a Jacob Jensen alarm clock in the 1990s. It cost around £40 then and he had one. My Finnish friend filled me with wisdom. He said he had one and asked ” Will you enjoy using it everyday?”. I said ‘Yes’. He said then ‘thats the justification for buying a well designed product’.
