V-Com, Sleep Numbers & Mouth Leak..

Post by Hutzy86 » Mon Jul 17, 2023 12:04 pm

Hey Peoples 👍just after some opinions on the V-Com, is it really as good as people say? Also struggling with a really dry mouth, leak rate is always very good but I think I tend to sleep with mouth open. Currently using a full face mask and toying with the idea of mouth tape, cervical collar or chin strap, which one is the go? If mouth tape is the go is it difficult getting used to breathing through nose 👃 tried using a nasal pillow mask annnd lasted about 2 minutes with air blasting through. Last night's sleep numbers attached 😎 any opinions on those would also be appreciated 😜

It didn't do anything for me; tried for a week then sent it back.

It is as a lot of people are saying.

Unfortunately a lot of people are saying, it's not very good.

For some people, under very specific conditions it seems to be helping. But for many, it doesn't help, or is uncomfortable.

Didn’t work for me either, sent it back for a refund.
