ZZZ SG full face --ANYONE tried it?

Post by chunkyfrog » Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:10 am

I have a zzz mask full face -the intermediate model--
(without the replaceable cushion)--which fits good, but a bit stiff.
Has anyone had experience with the new ZZZ SG full face mask; and if so,
is it improved? --how?

bump.
I can't believe nobody's tried this mask.
I need to know it the fit is similar; and if the silicone is much softer.

I never tried the other ZZZ full face mask but have a ZZZ SG full face mask. I can't use a mask with a forehead brace because the forehead brace triggers headaches. The ZZZ full face mask is the best I have tried, leak wise and better than the Full Life comfort wise. I prefer the smaller size of the Quattro FX but I have horrible leak problems with it.

As far as I understand, this is at least the third iteration of the ZZZ full face.
The first (I knew of) had a replaceable cushion, but the one I bought (about a year ago) did not.
Bad surprise! But it still fits my face pretty good, just a bit too stiff.
Hoping the SG is softer, and still fits.
I tried the SG nasal, and would have kept it, but the leaks were too bad. Nice design.

I have both the SG full face and the SG nasal and the cushions feel the same. The top part of both nasal and full face have very similar shapes.

I am having a hard time with leaks on my Mirage Quattro, has anyone here switched from the Mirage Quattro to the ZZZ Full Face both new or old version? I am currently trying a pad-a-cheek liner, tried it out last night but am still experiencing leaks.

My first full face was the Mirage Quattro. (bad DME--no choices given)
Their 3-D model is too different from my face to assess fit fairly--it didn't!
The ZZZ without the replaceable cushion was a tolerable fit, but the P/R fitlife was better,
and more comfortable, but feels confining because of the headgear design.
Likewise, the Liberty was the wrong shape, but the Hybrid was a better fit--just not good enough.
So, I'm still looking for my ideal full face mask.

I got the ZZZ-SG yesterday, and wore it last night.
It is softer and a bit bigger than my other zzz. It fits more like a F/P flexifit 431 (cups the chin-kind of)
It was pretty leaky--my leak line was 33+ (better than the 431; maybe I need a smaller headgear--as if!);
but the upper brackets stick out to the side a LONG ways, (?)
meaning this puppy gets dislodged by a regular bed pillow, frequently.
I'll give it another chance tonight, but I'm not betting money I'll keep this beast.
My favorite full face is still my comfortgel--and now they're changing that---
