Anyone in doubt about being mislead by merchant and/or Grab one could consider making a complaint to Commerce Commission

There should be an approval number on the filtering respirator and "NIOSH" must be spelled correctly. Both the mask and its packaging should be labeled "NIOSH-approved,"
Do these comply?

Hi, more thing to talk about, I thought all N95 masks are made in the USA only?
KN95 masks are made in China only?
Am I right or not?
Cheers
Stephen.

Hi Matthew - a lengthy email to Proidux (the Seller) AKA Sole Trader - Martin Sean Packer, elicited a response that the team from Grab One would reply to my enquiries. Apart from the comments they have posted there has been no email and nothing to convince me that these masks are legitimate. I emailed the Chinese Manufacturer but will be very surprised if they reply so have passed the matter on to the Commerce Commission.

You say there is nothing to convince you that they are legitimate, but you were easily convinced that they are not. You are coming across as a busy body which is not cool. Iv bought some so I will let you know how they are

MW - I have absolutely no idea if these are shonkey or not, they may well be totally legit (yah), but well, I for one am rather grateful for someone taking the time to question & investigate items that may have a profound effect on my health - I must say, you've added absolutely nothing to the discussion except compliment GrabOne, you are coming across as a "sellers stooge", which is not cool

CM… no not sellers stooge! If you buy an item then you do your own research, if your happy, you then buy an item.. If your not happy then don’t buy and move on!! . Over 3k ppl have bought this product so don’t try and scare monger those people.. for all we know yourself and ‘Sharon’ are doing hippy twirls in the government grounds for the last 7 days as anti vaxers.. Sharon has not supplied me with any evidence to suggest otherwise and you are both acting with negativity towards something we are being told is protecting people.. I however feel satisfied with my purchase. Good look at the beehive this week

MW - it's a shame that you've chosen to use this discussion forum to throw rather childish comments - the forum has, until your comment, been used by people, for exactly it's correct purpose, and in a civil manner.
I am led further to believe, due to the nature & rather extraordinary & indeed vitriolic attack on both myself & SJ, that you are indeed connected in some way with the seller.
Oh - and as an FYI to your assertions, no, I am not at Parliament Grounds - and in any case they haven't been there 7 days either, so, another inaccuracy.

Hi all,
Just messaging again to ensure everyone has seen our messages above.
Here at GrabOne, compliance and safety for our customers is very important to us.
We can confirm that prior to the N95 masks going onto our GrabOne site, compliance checks were completed to ensure that this product is compliant and safe for our customers to use.
The N95 deal on-site at present from Proidux is N95 compliant with NIOSH-42CFR84.
The 2nd image on the deal shows that they do not have ear loops which are tricky to see in the first image.
If you have any questions please feel free to let us know
Thank you

I'm not involved here, except as a potential buyer, but its a bit disturbing that so may negative comments can be posted by people who do not even bother to use google.
The model # is clearly displayed as SQ100Gs
A few minutes with Google will get you to
https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npptl/topics/respirators/disp_part/N95list1sect2-r.html
which shows the approval # is 84A-9323
So what's the issue?
Shame on you?
Yes, indeed!

Strange as it might seem to GW - yes, we do know how to use a computer ....
Perhaps have a look at:
https://nzohs.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Disposable-respirators.-Checklist-to-ensure-your-respirator-will-protect-you..pdf
What I see from most of the comments are some people doing exactly what they are told to do by the Government - to not accept at face value & verify, if verification cannot be obtained then report it - following simple instructions issued by the Government .... gee, who could have any problem with that .....
Personally, I think this conversation has run it's course - buy, don't buy - verify, don't verify ... totally up to the individual - but people should not be vilified by others online for doing so.

yes would be really good to know. I assumed they were genuine and bought 10x. Was going to buy 20x but the freight doubled which is a wrought. But nowhere near as much of an issue if these masks are not genuine.
