I bought one of those a couple of months ago. I used it once with normal goggles, and realised they were no good.
Im sure I got a couple of the wires fly off and hit me.

I bought a full face mask after that, and try to use that when using a grinder of any sort now.

For all they cost, its worth buying 2-3 of them, just to have them lying handy anywhere in the workshop...so no excuse not to use one.
