Unscented baby wipes. Same thing, only way more affordable.
I got some "cpap wipes" ---could not tell the difference;
but the packaging let them dry out when under half were used.
Oh, heck no, not again!

Strange, I find my dreamwear ffm very comfortable and easy to clip and unclip with the magnets they added. Much easier than other masks I've had to wrestle with in the dark at night. I just slide it around and the magnets find each other. I wonder if there isn't a problem with the magnet on your mask?

I used official cpap wipes and I've compared them to basic baby wipes from Walmart. I prefer the Pampers wipes, they were bigger, and thicker material. Also, like the frog said, the cpap wipes in the round plastic canister I had, were dried out and hard to get just one out of the tub, because they were all hooked together. So, NO, the expensive cpap wipes are not worth it. Just get some baby wipes- much cheaper and better quality.

Oh, well I don’t even unclip those. I just unclip one of the magnetic bottom ones...slide it over my head, adjust it, move my hair where it’s comfy and clip the magnetic clip to secure it and I’m set to go! :)

If this is necessary, you are wearing it too doggone tight.
