Well, I would not have built them that way.
I guess the real chimps are at the factory.

Where would you have put the sound deadening material, so that it would absorb the motor whine, and not be transmitted with the airflow down the tube to the mask?

I wonder why nobody thought about using a material that is chemically inert.
Instead of grabbing whatever is handy--and obviously cheap.
Material data sheets are readily available--and what is not there can be tested in a lab.
Or even the kitchen at home. Short cuts are not acceptable.

Recalls are usually only honored when the consumer presents the recall LETTER
to the dealership. Wait for your letter.
