Post by ~Q~ » Sat Apr 20, 2013 7:46 pm

What is the most popular nasal mask? Not nasal pillows, and but regular nasal... I full nose.

Thanks,

Q

My husband has been wearing the Mirage Fx mask for several a years and won't consider any other mask. He has more concave checks, unlike my chubby checks, and the mask fits him without the nose soreness that I get.

Why are you changing from the pillows?

My votes (can I have 2? ) are for Sleepweaver Elan and P/R Wisp.

I have been having a difficult time with my two pillow masks. I have been sleeping poorly, and so want to try something different to see if it helps.

Been eyeballing the wisp.

I like the Mirage FX. Very minimal profile.

I'm very new to cpap, I started with nasal pillows,(Pilairo and FX for her), and am now getting used to the Wisp. Once I got it adjusted, it's very light,easily maintains a seal, quiet, and comfortable. I would also like to try the Elan. I am starting to think I like the nasal mask better than the nasal cushions.

I have had several different masks over my 25+ Years with XPAP. For me, the best mask by far has been the Resmed Mirage Activa. I have used it for about 7 or 8 years now, and still think it is the best mask for me. Of course, I realize that faces are different, but it certainly works well for me.

My husband has been using the Wisp for a couple of weeks only and it is the only CPAP mask of any kind he's ever used, so keep that in consideration. He really likes it and says it's comfortable and easy to apply.

I vote for the PR Wisp followed by the F&P Eson.
