Re: Pilairo!

The Pilairo is the second mask I tried, and I feel that I've lucked out compared to my BF, who has had to try a number of masks over the months and still hasn't found one that is the IT mask (though the latest is pretty good, thank goodness).

Re: Have you named your faithful friend

I'm new too (in Canada). This is my second week with a CPAP, so I'm still trying to find a mask that works. Right now, I am trying out the Pilairo: just now I rinsed it off and hung the tube over a glass to dry. It looks like an alien out of a Ridley Scott movie--like those tube aliens in the movie ...
