For the DreamWear Full-Face mask, I had a concern that, since I"m mainly a side sleeper, I might mash and block the tube on one side providing the CPAP air. Their video says that if that happens the needed amount of air will just come through the other side. Makes sense to me since the mask I have now is just one tube coming in at the front. Should there be any concern here?
Would love your thoughts and experience with this mask. Thanks!

Re: DreamWear Full-Face Mask Questions
Your answer is correct.
Side sleeping and compressing the tube that is down won't restrict the overall air flow.
I am a side sleeper and I did try the DreamWear (all versions) and not once did I feel any air restriction when on my side.
ResMed has a similar mask and it doesn't restrict the air flow when someone is on their side either.

Re: DreamWear Full-Face Mask Questions
I sleep on my side and stomach and have worn a DreamWear for a couple of months. Never been a problem. I did however start using the ResMed F30i on Tuesday night. I don't see any reason I will go back to the DreamWear now. The F30i was just a lot more comfortable and quieter to me. I slept like a rock last night and my numbers on the machine looked great. So if you like the DreamWear and want to try another mask at some point that is like it then give the ResMed F30i a try it was worth it for me!

Re: DreamWear Full-Face Mask Questions
Thanks, CaptianRaven40. I was kinda going with the DreamWear FF because it has the Fit Pack so I don't have to guess at what size, and that was really the only reason. I'll definitely keep the F30i in mind, though. Thanks!
