warms up quickly, doesn't press on eyes
This mask has several good points and one which didn't work so well for me. On the plus side, it warms up quickly and has multiple warmth settings. The settings are easy to select because they are color coded (blue is the coolest, red the warmest, and green is in the middle). This is USB powered and has to be connected while in use, which is a bit of an issue, especially if your power source is on the right or on the floor. The cable is quite long, but I still had to move my power source to my left side to give me enough play to comfortable wear the mask while sitting in a chair.<br /><br />The mask has padding around the edges which raises it away from your eyes. If you don't like a mask that presses down on your eyelids, this is a plus. However, this same raised ridge caused an issue with the fit of the mask for me. It could be that the bridge of my nose is higher than average (though I don't think it is), but it didn't fit at the bottom very well for me and let a pretty decent gap that let in light. I think it worked well for warming my face, and I especially liked that it heated up higher onto my forehead which may have helped with some sinus pain, but I don't think it works for blocking out light/sleeping.<br /><br />The mask is easy to adjust with velcro fittings that thread through a plastic piece on the back. The band is elastic as well so you don't need to set it precisely and can easily get it snug, but not too tight. The mask has an overall sturdier feel to it than thinner ones and the design is generally good except for the fit at the bottom.
