Mojo Gel Mask needs a home

Vader · Post by **Vader** » Mon Oct 09, 2006 7:16 pm

If anyone is interested in a *new* medium size Mojo full face mask, send me a PM.
I tried it on, and it's not the right dang size!

I didn't even wear it one night, but I'm willing to sell or trade for a L/N *comparable* full face mask. Would even consider a large Activa, or a Hybrid (gasp!)

that is a bummer! How noisy is that sucker compared to your UMFF? did you use it long enough to find that out?

I just got a Comfort2, its cushion seems to run smaller than the UMFF also. I ordered a Med-Std because that is what I always used in the UMFF, but in the Comfort2 it is a lot shorter, then they say it rides lower.

I don't know WHY they don't list the Height & Width dimensions of the cushion so you could measure your face with a ruler and determine if it will fit or not.

That was the thing that really surprised me, because it is VERY quiet. I heard several folks remark that it was loud. That is definitely NOT true in my experience.

Yeah, I wear a medium in the UMFF (but I could almost wear a large) and I love the fit.

But NO-O-O-O...I had to be a tough guy, and thought I would do my bit to stand up to Resmed's pricing policy.
What's that saying, about cutting off your nose to spite your face?

It's a shame though, because the Mojo really does have a comfortable feel to it.

Thanks, that settles the noise issue on the Mojo for me. I may give it a try next month or so.

What are the dimensions of the cushion measuring from the center of the cushion from the nose bridge to the center of the cushion where it makes contact at the lower chin? then the width side to side measuring from the center of the cushion?

I may be able to use it if it will fit. If you get the FF too short it will leak badly when your mouth drops during sleep. The Comfort2 kinda holds it in place, but that sucker is noisy, real noisy.

There is a mask sizing section of cpap.com which may be helpful:

Link to Mask Sizing

This guide is found on the page for the ComfortLite, so if there is a mask that you would like to size, there may be a link on the individual mask listing for sizing the mask to fit your unique face.

Link to ComfortLite Fitting Guide

I used it to measure the ComfortLite 2 simple seal, but did not realize that I needed a DIFFERENT tube for it. Thus, I haven't tried it yet.

In general, the nasal interfaces I have known work best if one goes up a size. For example, the Swift: I measured a small, but found the medium worked better.

With the ComfortLite and ComfortLite 2 (which use the same interfaces): I measured a 3 for the direct seal, but only the 4 seems to REALLY seal! With the nasal pillows, the medium seems best but both the large and medium will work.

I did use the PB ADAM nasal pillows, and had no choice as that was just a loaner for a week. I think they were a medium, and they worked quite well. Maybe if I could use a different headgear with the interface setup, I would really enjoy using the ADAM. It was certainly easy to clean.

Good luck, and sorry I haven't tried more interfaces--but HEY! It's only been six months. Sigh--so many interfaces, and so little time.

Vader,
I tried to pm you with no luck. Does the Mojo run smaller then the UMFF?

Hmmm..I don't know why the PM didn't work. Others have gotten through, were you signed in?

Anyway, to answer your question, the Mojo seems to have almost identical measurements as the UMFF. Although it looks like it might be about a quarter inch less deep than the UMFF.
I think the difference for me is that my nose needs all the room it can get!
The gel cushion on the Mojo is VERY comfortable-but it does make it fit a bit more snugly, which in my case is not a good thing.
