Hoods can get so expensive… but this was a such a good price

Hoods can get so expensive… but this was a such a good price for such a good quality hood. The light helps for when you’re in a dark area and the parental view lets you see EVERYTHING. It’s honestly amazing and I love it

Good Helmet

I would highly recommend this helmet for indoor use, lights are bright and will light up your work area. However, my helmet was defective as light only turned on a few times before it stopped working. I spoke with Raymond @YesWelderSupport and they are sending me a replacement helmet. Great customer support and one of the best helmets for it's price

I have another Yeswelder helmet that I can wear with my glas

I have another Yeswelder helmet that I can wear with my glasses on and so when I wanted a second helmet I picked this one off a page with the thought of it becoming my new primary. Once it arrived, I found that while it fits *me*, it doesn't fit me with my wire rim glasses. Bummer. It is, in all other respects, a very nice helmet.I'm going to keep it as my vision is decent at close distances without my glasses but I would be lying if I didn't say I was disappointed at how things turned out.
