That sucks! I wouldn't mess with glue either. Even tape. That stuff outgasses for ages and you don't want it in you system... Definitely write the seller. It might be buyer beware, but implicit in the listing is the idea that the product is not broken or unusable. It might be an honest mistake too....

I did contact the seller, and he said he will send me a $25 refund, which is what I figured a replacement elbow part would cost, after doing a quick search. Most of the time it looks that you have to buy the entire elbow unit, for $40 or more. I might not be able to find just the one part I need, it...

just looked at mine, seems it would be pretty hard to install it backwards, but I guess it could be done. It installs from the outside. on mine, the silicone flap in the center of the horseshoe is on the outside at the top, the exhaust holes are tapered with the larger diameter of the holes on the ...

First off, I wish I knew about this forum 15 months ago when I first started using CPAP. I browsed through posts the other day, and saw one concerning the problem of a whistling sound in the Resmed Ultra Mirage FF mask. It was pointed out by one poster that he had inserted the plastic exhaust port p...
