Comments: I have just purchased your best Welding Helmet, the Promax 680. I have purchased other Weldmax welding Helmets in the past for my work and have found them to be Great quality at an affordable price. I have found the Promax 680 is very comfortable to wear. Great adjustment on the headband and the first time I have had an adjustment for moving the helmet forward or backward for people whom wear glasses. Its very easy to use with a panoramic veiwing area. Job well done Weldclass. I cant wait to show this helmet to my workmates. Thanks George.
