Question long time cpap users best & most comforfable ma

Post by Guest » Sun Apr 08, 2007 11:33 am

I am on my third week and starting to sleep better and getting use to this new way of life however, my mask is not as comfortable as i think it should be. I have a a comfortgel mask with head gear.

I am a large man and use a large mask. What mask do you long time users find the most comfortable? I realise this may be the same as asking what is the best tasting wine as we all have different tastes and needs.

What mask do you feel works the best for your needs and why.

Looking forward to your answers and thank you for any help.

Happy Easter!

I too am a man large head moustache and full beard I am currently using the Resmed Ultra Mirage Full face and love it great mask. That being said i am also going to try the innomed hybrid. I am a bit of a mouth breather and prefer using a FF in lieu of a chin strap

I am also a large man, and am on my second, soon to be third Nasal Aire II. It was my first. Since then, I have gone through most of the popular choices, Comfort Curve, Swift, Resp FF, Breeze and a couple more. It continues to work for me. They just get old and wore out.

I am 6"4' 235, the best I have found so far is a "Comfort Light 1" worn like a ball cap. Sleep net "IQ" not happy with, "Comfort Classic" is my second choice so far.
