Need a Really Good Full Face Mask!

[curtcurt46]

I am in the process of finding my next full face mask. I have used a Resmed Ultra Mirage FF with poor results (leaks). I am both a back (75%) and side sleeper. I am looking at the Somnotech Soyala FF and the Resmed Quattro FF and would like to hear comments. I would also consider any other full face masks that anyone might want to comment on.
I will typically use a cpap pressure of 7 -12. Thanks in advance for any comments.
Also, any comments on a particular masking scoring data higher than other masks. My experience with the UMFF was that it scored events at a higher rate than my nasal masks.

I can't imagine the UMFF not sealing at those relatively low pressures. It's as good as it gets for me when it comes to sealing.

The soyala is a good mask but people have issues with the pressure on the bridge of the nose. Once that bridge gets sore and tender after a night with the soyala I have to put it away for a week to heal up.

Have you looked at the Hybrid and the Liberty, they are a half face mask that could possibly work for you, I really want to try one of these masks myself as soon as possible, I use the Swift 11 and find that it moves around to much at night and causes leaks and dents from the staps on my face, you may not want a mask with nasal pillows and what the Hybrid and Libert consist of anyway, you might want to go to cpap.com and check them out! Hope you find a good one that works perfect..

Curtcurt46, just a heads up....
I could not wear the Liberty (sore upper lip, hard pillows ....)
I absolutely love the Hybrid. you get 3 cushions and 3 sets of pillows that adjust 2 sizes. It's great . The Hybrid teaches you to sleep with your mouth closed by putting the chin in the correct position. The Liberty is a bit of a knock off in my opinion and is not designed as well.
I'm just saying...

The Fischer and Paykel HC431(A) is an excellent FF mask. I love mine. Zero problems, totally effective.

I've been on CPAP for over 11 Years and I've tried about every mask on the market. Nothing has worked as well as the CPAP Pro. My provider talked me into an Ultra Mirage (they must have a deal with them). After 2 days I had sores on my nose and a swollen upper lip. After seeing my nose my provider finally agreed to buy me a new CPAP Pro Mask. Give it a try.
