Customer Reviews
I have been using this helmet for the past three days with my new pruner. I have a 7-1/4 head size and have had no issues with fit or adjustments.
Pros:
1. Fits well
2. Ear protections does not rub at all
3. Face shield is Metal coated in Nylon. (not enough to stop anything huge but will stop most).
4. Hearing protection cancels out noise very well.
Cons:
1. Face shield does not completely cover your chin. (so that you can look down and cut much easier 50/50 complaint)
2. Head band could use more for sweat but really isn't an issue.
3. Large safety glasses do not go behind your ears well. Use the smaller ones or get some good goggles.
4. Rain guard is a joke I threw it back in the box.
Truthfully all of the cons really are not that big of deal to me. I picked this up at Shoppers Supply for $45.88. You have to put it together but it isn't rocket science it is a protective helmet. Overall it was a great buy and it really does help with debris flying at you. It won't stop everything but it will stop the bigger stuff. Also always wear Safety goggles with this helmet. If you want your eyes protected wear eye protection. You want your face, head, and ears protected wear this thing.
Personal Protective Equipment is never convenient. It's usually bulky, annoying, and sometimes in the way, but this particular helmet makes it just a little bit more tolerable.
The face shield is mesh rather than plastic, keeping it easy to get air through, while still blocking chips, and can be easily shifted up to get out of the way when not working. The ear muffs are a nice tight fit (and hold the whole system nicely in place snugly), and are easy to snap up and rotate out of place when not cutting. The inner straps on the helmet are a nice canvas, so more comfortable than other helmets I've worn using plastic liner straps.
Having everything combined makes it easy to remember to use it all, and makes it quick to toss on. Protecting your eyes, ears, and head are important, and this helmet is a great way to do it.
Also meets:
ANSI S3.19 - 1974 (for the ear muffs)
ANSI Z89.1 - 2009 (for the helmet)
