I have been using Amara View for several years and leaks can be a problem. Initially the sizing guide called for me to use a medium cushion but I decided the large was a better fit.

Within the last couple of weeks I started using a new mask and I was having on/off leaks waking me up at night. The leak always seem to be on my left side. I put my mask on and went in front of a mirror. I noticed the mask seemed to be sitting on my face crooked to the right side. I tightened the lower strap on the left side and last night the leaks were gone. When the mask is adjusted properly I love it but it can be difficult to hit that adjustment sweet spot.

Try the Dreamware Full Face mask. It;s the successor ti the View and it's far more comfortable with less leaking issues. I've used both and there's no comparison.
