I have about 4 different masks that I have tried,the Breeze is the only one that works for me.(side & stomach sleeper with a full beard) As a side note, does anyone know if & how you can sell masks? I have ones that have been worn once or not at all. I tried E Bay but they said you cannot sell medical stuff.

Failure for me

Post by kikisue » Fri Sep 22, 2006 8:55 am

I fought the Breeze for almost 2 months - tried all the "tricks" of adjusting, used the Ayr gel, etc. I could never get my nose to adjust to the pillows, plus I would get it not to leak for awhile then fall asleep deeper and suddenly have leaks and couldn't get it readjusted. It got thrown across the room a few times. I never liked the hard headgear either - perhaps a deconstruction would have helped, but still would have the nares problem.

I also found myself mouth breathing and hated taping. I am now a very satisfied UMFF user and though tempted to try something new, figure why mess with success

Breeze is my favourite mask, minimal, no face contact, least mess to hair.
Sometimes I add a tie round the tube and back of my head for added stability when I turn.

The Breeze was the first mask I could use, and I used it exlusively for about 4 months, till I got the Aeiomed Headrest (aka Aura).

I used it with KY jelly for a long time, and evenutually discovered that my preferred tweak for that interface is a tennis sock, folded in two, underneath the outrigger. That makes it softer, and also relieves most of the pressure on my upper lip.

I tried Breeze for about 2 weeks and my nares were sooo sore I had to go to something else. But to be fair it was the first one I ever tried and did not know about this forum and all the great fixes available. Had I found this place first things may have been different.

The Aura is mine.

I work for a DME and have luxury of being able to try and have several kinds of interfaces. The Breeze has by far been the most comfortable for me.

After about two weeks of using a modified Breeze, I can now safely say that the Breeze has been a great success for me and has taken the place of my reliable Swift.
