I have been using the same Amara cushion for about 1 1/2 years. I wash it every couple of months is I think about it.
As to random leaks, I found that the mask is pretty sensitive as to how the straps are placed and I discovered that I after I put it on I have to pull the top straps up and the bottom straps down and re-seat the mask on my nose.
