"The shade adjuster on outside of hood works well but in my opinion it would be better if it were on the inside, it also turns very easily, would be better if it was a bit tougher to turn."
"Works great so far."
"Great auto-darkening helmet for the money, cheaper and better than HF."
"Noobie welder and needed a helmet."
"By that I mean that when the mask isn't auto darkened, it's shade or, the amount of light it allows through is MUCH greater than other masks. When you start welding, the reaction of the mask is instant, and it shields your eyes. The drawback of this, is that if you don't turn on the mask, or don't adjust it dark enough, it can be too bright. This mask also gives you a greater range of adjustment, so if you only need a little shielding (plasma cutting for example), you can easily adjust it, so you still have much better vision than with most other masks. When it's not dimmed, you can see much more clearly... it's default state is a much less dark shade than most other masks. Mask is useless now."
"It adjusts automatically, except when I forget to put it on the appropriate function..either welding or grinding."
"Does the job."
Size: 13.6 inches x 9.6 inches x 8.1 inches. The Auto Darkening Filter (ADF) enables welders to adapt to various working environments by controlling the shade of the lens, with adjustments for sensitivity from ambient lighting sources.

"My review is based on comparing it with the 3M Speedglas 9100V (3M Speedglas Welding Helmet 9100 with Standard Size Auto-Darkening Filter 9100V- Shades 5, 8-13, Model 06-0100-10SW). It's only shortcomings are no Lock in Dark mode, and only shade 4 is available in Grind mode. My 3M helmet has protected more than my eyes. Any decent ANSI rated helmet will protect your eyes (stay away from those HF ones, you eyes are worth more than that). And If I welded all day for a living, I would spring for a more comfortable and sturdier option,"
"A great welding helmet at a great price."
"Great hood."
"Fantastic for the price, best helmet I've used."
The Original Pipeliner: Designed for the specific needs of pipe welders. Specially formulated SuperGlas Plus material and rugged construction to meet the needs of the most demanding welding environments; self extinguishing, smooth helmets deflect sparks and spatter.

"I find I let my hood rest against hot pipe when I weld in tight places and there are no melted spots on the hood."
"Purchased for my son and he likes it better than his $300 helmet."
"Light weight, what I was looking for!"
"Absolutely on time 2 day shipping got here over the weekend before I had to go out of town."
"The shell itself is great size shape and fit around head, but the finish is a bit rough."
"Good hood."
"I love this hood it protects better then those suck over rated miller and lincon hoods and you don't get a glare on the lens while you're welding because it stays dark in the hood the whole time so you can see while your welding."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I'm actually LAUGHING at those 1 and 2 star reviews and of those who claim the plastic shield is "misty", or "opaque"... and not clear. Perfect for what I'll use it for (grinding metal), and cheap enough to toss when it's scratched and hard to see out of."
"I used it as a prop for my sci-fi film."
"For all of the 1 star reviews that I just shake my head at...The mask is PERFECTLY CLEAR (you need to pull off both the INSIDE AND OUTSIDE protective film)."
"Two reasons...the replacement shields are overpriced in my opinion and I felt the swivel joints that hold the shield in place when it is raised and lowered seems rather flimsy."
"The only drawback and this isn't specific to this mack is that the static that builds up will cause sawdust to cling to it, which lessens visibility a bit but, can easily be wiped off."
"I use this face shield primarily for grinding, but I do also use it when working with chemical solvents (brake cleaner when cleaning carburetors). Like others have said, this face shield feels really light, and sometimes you forget you have them on!"
"It's a UVEX helmet, not sure why it says Sperian S8500."
