I was so glad it came with 3 different sizes. I was able to try all of them to see which one was more comfortable, turns out the medium fits better than the small for me as I first thought it would. The only reason I didn’t give it a higher star is the straps. They are elastic and lost some of it elasticity within a few weeks. There is a small clamp that comes with it to make the straps tighter. I do put in my own clip barrettes to hold the straps in place, the seem to ride up the back of my head when sleeping.

Got Allergies?

I was suffering with allergies every single day; watery eyes and runny nose, I should have bought stock in kleenex with all that I used. So I was taking over the counter meds. I didn't like taking those allergy meds because it didn't just dry out my eyes and nose, it dried out my mouth. I had the worst cotton mouth ever. I was always sucking on a dry mouth lozenge. So I thought I'd try an air purifier. I could tell a different within a few hours of plugging this LEVOIT Air Purifier. Now I rarely have to wipe my eyes and nose.
