Swift FX replace pillows?

I just moved from a Swift LT to an FX. With the LT, I'd have to replace the pillows every 2 months to get a good seal. My usual cleaning routine is once/week on the mask with warm water and baby shampoo.

How long are the FX pillows generally lasting before you consider replacing yours?

When I was using that mask I would get 9 - 12 months out of them.

Wow. How often would you clean them, and what did you use?

Each morning I wipe the pillows down with a damp paper towel. Once a week I wash them in warm water with a drop or two of Palmolive dish soap followed by a rinse in warm water. Once a month I would bring water to a boil with baking soda in it and then drop the pillows in the boiling water and let it boil for a couple of minutes then shut the heat off and let it sit in the hot water for about 10 minutes.

The boiling seems to re-firm the silicone and bring it back to near new condition.

I find the P10 pillows have better "legs" than the FX pillows ever did.
