OPUS 360 Pre-2008 Pillows

Post by mikmoranva » Wed Sep 30, 2009 4:57 pm

I know I haven't been around in a while. Things have been going great and just overwhelmed with Work and life. I had found the perfect mask for me in the OPUS 360 and wouldn't you know it they went and modified it so I can't use the new version. So I was wondering if anybody has the older version hiding in their mask drawer and if they would help an old hose head out by selling him the large cushions. If so, send a PM and we can work out the details.

My nose thanks you,

Mike

What are the differences between the pillows?

The original pillows were made of thinner silicone and were softer and more flexible. They don't irritate my nostrils like the new ones do. Both the old and new seal decently, I just don't have a tolerance for the new ones.

I think I may have a one in size large. I use the mediums, so the large that came with my mask is sitting in my 'spares' box. Fortunately, I have been able to tolerate the new design, although is was a somewhat rough beginning. If you have a unused medium, maybe we can make a swap.

Thanks for the offer, but used my medium too much for it to be fair. Its okay, got the Swift LT and though the swivel isn' the same the pillows are alot like the original OPUS ones. Used 2 nights now with no irritation.
