cheapest place to buy replacement Pilairo nasal cushions?
wheres the cheapest place to buy replacement cushions for the F&P pilairo nasal pillows mask?
they cost AUD $90 + posting in Australia - seems a bit steep to me so I'm guessing it would be cheaper to buy online from the US?

Re: cheapest place to buy replacement Pilairo nasal cushions?
May I ask what part of the pillow is malfunctioning? I ask because tears & pinholes are easily filled with super-glue. Sounds kind of dumb, but I've had my Piliaro since August & other than some super-glue, I haven't had to change the cushion.
I don't know if you've checked cpap.com, but below is a link to the replacement cusion.

The pillow material is really fragile, so when super-glueing I either held with one hand, applied super-glue with the other, or put mask on the end of a pencil (eraser end) then glued & held it in place so the mask doesn't glue onto itself, undoing what you are trying to accomplish. PM me if you want to do this and are having trouble.

Every place in the U.S. is the same -- $24.95.
Avoid tooth extractions (including wisdom teeth) & train-track braces; find a functional orthodontist at http://iaortho.org/.

Tegaderm, (if you can find it in OZ) may help on a tear if it is on the weak upper chamber area,
as pictured by the_napster in this thread:

This was when I decided to not even TRY this mask!

Re: cheapest place to buy replacement Pilairo nasal cushions?
thanks for the replies and tips on repiars
- I'm just thinking ahead, nothing wrong with my mask yet but would like a few replacement cushions on standby
what a massive cost differential between us and oz, $25 vs $90 !

just bought 3 replacement Pilairo cushions for $74.85 + $35.65 international shipping to Australia (total $110.50) for about the same price I would have paid for 1 cushion in Australia from https://www.cpap.com

Re: cheapest place to buy replacement Pilairo nasal cushions?
It's funny how we all can turn each other off from a mask. When I read that froggy had to use eyegel every night with the sleepweaver, that is what turned me off from giving it a second go, and comfirming my first experience with it. Jus' sayin'.

With a little sewing (maybe a lot), to make the elan cushion fit my face, I no longer need eye gel;
but I use artificial tear drops every morning, regardless of which mask I use.
