Does anyone have a full mask that does not leak?

No mask leaks by itself... it leaks in relation to how it fits a given face, and no one can predict how that works on you for any given mask (and FF ones should be tried on lying down as your face changes a lot then).

I have tried a few different full face in different sizes. They just do not work for me. For others, the are the best thing ever. I have found the nasal mask and taping to work the best for me. Others can't even stand the thought of taping their mouth shut.

Over the past 9 years I have used both the F&P Simplus and the Mirage Quattro..neither have ever given me leak problems...and...I rarely change cushions.
