I've found the Swift to be the best for me.

Lightweight
Pretty good seal
No indentations on bridge of nose that nasal masks give
Can sleep on back and side comfortably

I had another great night with the system and want to restate a suggestion to sleepguy. When I went to choose a scent to "spend the night with" I picked up a bottle of "Deep" I couldn't remember what was in it. My computer was already shut down and I couldn't go to the website to see the fragrance ...

I haven't had luck with Ambien and tried Lunesta with no luck either. The only sleeping aid that's ever worked for me is called "Trazedone". It's an old style anti-depressant that they use for people with trouble sleeping. I don't believe they use it much for depression anymore with the new types li...

LOL,

LOL, mine is average I would say. Never had such bad indents with the older mirage masks.

I would love this mask except for the big indent on the bridge of my nose it leaves. I keep it as lose as possible to allow the cushions to expand, etc.. but i still wake up with a big indent. It's so deep, it sometimes takes a half day to go away Even tried moleskin as someone suggested, but no luc...

I've been using mine for over a week now and love it! My favorite scent right now is "Fresh" which came with the Standard Starter Pack. Mmmmmmm.

Thanks Bret for a great product!

The Optilife stays in place even better when I'm on my back. Only one time did the headgear come off in the middle of the night. I think that was because it had been over a week since I had adjusted the straps. The head gear does stretch some. For some reason, i thought the optilife was for side sl...

Have you tried the rubberband trick? Place a rubberband on one of the top posts where you hook on the headgear. Bring it over the top of the shell, and hook to the other top post. This will hold the nasal pillows a bit closer to your face and a bit closer together, and they stay there all night. I ...

Thanks for the suggestions! I can't imagine them wearing out so soon, but heck, you never know! I'll keep messing about for now and see what happens. The optilife looks interesting, but i prefer sleeping on the back even though i find myself sleeping on my side lots of times. I have a hybrid trade c...

Thanks! I'll try a little tighter, but I thought it was already a little snug. I use a feather pillow as well so that helps when turning on my side. Just strange since it just started happening.

Swift - Pillow falling out

Hi,

I've been using the Swift mask for about a month now with no problems. The last 2 or 3 nights, the right nostril pillow keeps falling out to the side. Has anyone else experienced this?

I clean the pillows and my face every night.. headgear is securely fastened.

Thanks.

Received mine yesterday and am very pleased. I really like combining the Clear with Peace as Bret suggested.

Thanks for a very nice product and wonderful service.

So funny to hear other people talk about this. I get the same feeling.. I wake up at 5am, go potty then start having the conversation in my head.. "Should I leave it off and get my last two hours nice and comfortable? Nah, I better not... MUST WEAR MASK AT ALL TIMES" hehe.
