Velcro catches on linens
This is a contoured sleep mask with an adjustable strap. The mask appears to be constructed of two layers of polyester sealed at the seams with padding added around the edges of the eyes. An elastic strap is sewn on each side by the temples. This strap is in 2 separate pieces that are joined by a 3.5” long strip of Velcro in the middle that meets behind your head. Included in the package is a single pair of foam earplugs in a non-resealable plastic bag. The product was made in China.<br /><br />I’m on the fence about this sleep mask. It fits my face well and successfully blocks out all light when I am sitting up. But when I try to sleep with it on, the mask sometimes turns on my head so no light is blocked. And then when I adjust the Velcro strap to fit my face, the pieces of Velcro strips don’t line up perfectly—it’s shorter on one end and longer on the other, and the exposed Velcro catches on my pajamas, hair, and pillow case. The included earplugs are just a gesture—these are single use earplugs with no carrying case. All in all, this is a very basic sleep set that will do in a pinch or for a short hospital stay, but it is not a workhorse sleep mask set that I would want to wear every day for months on end.
