Absolute favorite thing about this mask: soft on bridge of nose.
Awesome: machine washable (hello!), doesn't dig into bridge of nose, really is 100% light blocking (for me, anyway), cotton-y and cushion-y against face so it doesn't smush your eyelids or irritate facial skin, weird strap is actually pretty comfortable and holds mask in place (even for an "active" sleeper like myself).
You might want to know: that the Velcro straps on the side have never given me a problem, I've always found the elastic to be sufficient enough for my (admittedly large) head, there is a vast "sweet spot" where the strap will hold the mask in place without injury or discomfort--it's not rocket science. I was tentative about this mask because of the review(s) that mentioned the Velcro (some here and some from other sites). Turns out, they might irritate your face if can't figure out how to take the strap off and turn it around so the Velcro is on the outside... and that's very easy to do. It's a non-issue, really.
If I had to say something critical: I guess I'd say that it can be warm but that's true with anything you might strap to your face while you sleep. This is cooler than any other mask I've tried, mostly because of the cotton backing, and also because I haven't tried other higher-end (read: costs more than ten bucks) masks. But why would I need to?
So, it's expensive, yes; but if you're going to use this most nights then it's well worth the investment. It's like the difference between the three dollar pillow and the ten dollar pillow: even if it doesn't last forever, it's worth the seven bucks.This sleep mask is soft, keeps the light out, and is great in general except for one thing: the adjustable strap. If you have a big head, the strap fits too tightly, and does not have enough velcro to lengthen. I will have to sew in some strips of velcro to modify. No issues if you don't have a big head. It's worth the minor inconvenience because of the quality and performance, and it's also made in the USA.

I have tried many sleep masks, and the Dreamer takes the prize for being the best. It blocks out the light, has an adjustable strap and is very comfortable. You cannot go wrong with this one!The sleep masks(I bought two) are well-padded so there is no pressure on the eyeballs and it is easy to breathe. They are effective at keeping light out. The fabric looks silky but the fluffy cotton backing quickly attracts dust and hair. Worst fault is the tie holding the mask on the head with velcro tabs. It is thin, unpleasant to touch and too small for most women (with hair). I shall have to insert extra material (or wear a scarf through the tie loops). The mocha colour is nondescript but the sage is okay. They are poorer quality than the sage and blue velvet, satin-backed, lavender-filled masks bought from this manufacturer in 2005. One mask was delivered by courier, the other took a month to arrive by post. This pack contained no spongy earphones.
