I use only one, my ResMed Ultra Mirage FFM. But, I do have a rather large collection of all of the masks I've tried before settling on this one.

I've only been at this CPAP thing for about 5 weeks so I haven't had a chance to collect many masks. From the first night's therapy, I knew the mask that came with ResMed S8 Compact (with the forehead support that made my eyes cross) was not going to work. I've been eagerly reading the mask recommendations on this forum to narrow the field and finally decided to try the InnoMed Hybrid. With the Hybrid I averaged about 4 hours of continuous sleep the first few nights and last night actually slept uninterupted for 8 full hours. Of course I won't be lulled into contentment and will continue the never-ending quest for the perfect mask.

Update: Continuing the quest, I just ordered a Hans Rudolph 7600 V2 Full Face Mask & Headgear. Since I tolerate the full face Hybrid pretty well I thought I would try a full face without the pillows.

I, too, have a few closet queens. But my one-and-only is the Innomed Hybrid. And I now have a brand new spare, thanks to cpapauctions.

Only one at a time.....Only have one nose and one face!!!!!
Activa LT large/wide (which is actually very small)

I've tried 5 or 6. Used the headrest for quite a while until I figured out it was tearing my hair out; Got a plain Activa and used it for a few months and then got the Activa LT.....

cheers

This is for extra credit, and won't be on the final exam.

I answered the question before I read the posts and am very motivated by grades. I have two masks. If I had known it were extra credit I would have given the Zorro answer even though I don't get it. I don't have to get it to think its funny. It is a good thing you didn't make up the exams when I was in university, or I would be asking "do you want fries with that?"

I have 3 that I switch between. The Airfit P10, The Swift FX and the Sleepweaver Advance. It would be great if just one mask did it all for me, but it doesn't.

I currently have four ...

P10 is my current goto mask ... it's stays on without a lot of hassle
Nuance Pro was my prior goto mask, now I use it when the P10 irritates my nose ... it's more comfortable than the P10, but won't stay in place as easily.
I have a fabric Circadiance Elan I use when I don't want anything on my nostrils ... if the straps were more comfortable, I'd probably use it a lot more
And I have a FFM in reserve for if I get too sick to breath through my nose (I've never used it overnight)

My ideal mask would probably be some combination of the P10 and the Nuance Pro as I miss the comfort of the nasal pillow from the Nuance. And the fabric mask would earn a lot of points if the velcro on the straps didn't poke me uncomfortably.

Since I only have one nose...I use one mask. That was the question...not how many do you have. This is why POLLs are useless.

POLL'S are useless, because people want to write something meaningful, but don't no how, and can't afford a stamp. Jim

Swift FX for regular use, and a FFM in reserve for cold season.
