9 day old Breeze

Post by JeffH » Fri Jun 01, 2007 1:50 pm

Broke on me trying to take it apart for cleaning. Called PB and they said return it to CPAP.Com as defective. I did. The black foam at the back side was already coming off.

Front end of the Breeze is brilliant. Back half a night mare!

Back to my (getting really old) Adams. It is the one DSM was talking about that had the swivel built on the pillow holder.

Yep!

That Breeze headgear is something the engineers never tried to sleep in themselves.

I chopped that sucker off and modified it without that metal spine or the back cradle.

President-pretender, J. Biden, said "the DNC has built the largest voter fraud organization in US history". Too bad they didn’t build the smartest voter fraud organization and got caught.

Great modification, Dreamstalker. I'm going to borrow, heavily, and see if I can make the same adapations to an old Breeze of mine.
Thanks for the pics.

Eeck! I've have NO problems with that back cradle, once I figured out the sweet spot on the back of my head. I don't even notice it. Plus, it's floating over my thick hair and a chin strap, so maybe I'm just well padded.

But we're all different, eh? Glad you're getting a replacement, Jeff!

Cheers,
B.

Babette,

I'm slick bald headed. I think this headgear is made for people with lots of hair.

I'm not one of them....

Best night ever with the Breeze

Post by Brookbank » Sat Jun 02, 2007 6:36 am

I am also bald headed and just had my best night so far with the breeze. I woke up, thought the mask had fallen off, and had to touch it to determine I still had it on.

I use a CPAP.com deluxe chinstrap. I read a post and tried using it with the breeze on top of the headgear. Holds the mask very stable and makes it more comfortable.

I think wearing masks over the chinstrap has helped me, too. I tried on the Dreamfit, the sister mask to the Breeze, today. I liked it. The rep said for the price, you were better off getting the Dreamfit than the DreamSeal assembly.

The headgear is different. If you don't like the hard back plate, check it out:
