Nasal pillows - how long do they last for you?

Just as the subject line says, what's the longest period of time you've used the same nasal pillows?

Like I said in the identical question thread recently, a couple of years.

working on a pair now that are over 1 1/2 years old, going on 2 years. i firmly believe that the key to their longevity is that i don't over clean them. i wipe them every morning with an unscented baby wipe. wash them in dawn liquid dish washing soap, whenever i get around to it. maybe 2-3 months between washing. the straps get washed whenever they start to loosen up.

now, i'm talking about P10. don't know what you are talking about, because you didn't say and your equipment isn't listed.

My Medicare DME sends pillows in ample supply, so I replace them every other month or so. It is the P10 straps that really need replacing probably on a monthly basis, and I mostly buy them on Amazon as they don't seem to be readily available on the Medicare schedule.

No need to replace the strap that often just was it in hot water and dry and it will shrink back

Pillows typically last me a year or two. When they get hazy/filmy or lose their tackiness, after washing, I boil in distilled water with 2 teaspoons of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) until they are clear again, about 3-5 minutes and rinse well.
