New Pad A Cheek for F&P 432 Review

I received the new Pad A Cheek for the F&P 432 yesterday and I am happy to report that like all of the Pad A Cheek products I have purchased, this new one works just as well. The Pad A Cheek for the 432 has a large center pad which helps alleviate the pressure from the “spike” (a term I use so lovin...

Thanks snoredog (great name) - as for the spike and the eye leaks - I have compensated for that by using moleskin on the mask across the top portion of it which has a narrowing effect - I've learned that the width of my nose bridge is rather narrow. I've had to do this modification on almost every m...

I used the Aussie hose for the first time last night - no rainout whatsoever. However, here in Memphis I was hoping for a cool night - got down to a chilly (just kidding here) 50 degrees - halfway through the night I had to disconnect the power from it because I was having"Sweatout". I'm looking for...

The Review: I’ve just spent my first night with the new F&P 432. As promised, I will do my best to review this new and very comfortable mask. I’m sitting here with the both my old 431 and the new 432 so I’ll start with the aesthetics comparison of each. The 432 has noticeably smaller footprint. Ther...

Just got it today - looks just like the old 431 except for the new grey cushion between the mask and the silicone seal. I quickly tried it on and my first thought was that this is a much more comfortable mask than the 431. That being said, F&P still kept the single forehead spike - I call it a spike...

I'm on a pressure of 18 - and I'm using the F&P 431 - works great. I've also used the Hybrid and it also worked well- still trying to get used to the nasal pillow thing...PS. I just ordered the new F&P 432 - hoping that it is even more comfortable than the 431 - we'll see...

I've been using the 431 for some time now - and the quick release pull cord is stronger than it looks. I use it everyday and in 3 mos it has yet to fail. Hope it works for you - but one side note, sounds like they are coming out with a new and improved 431.... the 432 in the coming weeks. Sounds lik...

good point Artwood - I'm just hoping this new mask will "be the one". If not, I'll just keep dealing with the facial redness the 431 leaves me with. But to your point, I won't be so quick to "throw out the baby with the bathwater"

Johnny - now that's customer service - and I truly appreciate you're honesty and candor. As I stated earlier, I jumped down Christopher's throat a bit quickly and for that I apologize. Now, I have contacted Australia about having them send me a mask and as of this post, I have not gotten a response....

ok, now that I've cooled down I'll admit I might have been a little "harsh' . But clearly I found more information about this new product in 10 min than he was even willing to. Guess, my standards are just too high...and I'm crabby cause I'm not sleeping well!!!!
