This would be an even better thread if folks would be really detailed about their favorites of all these collections, and their reasons. I also am amazed at the numbers of masks in these collections. How do you afford to pay for all of these? I am a newbie, and I have exchanged 3 masks so far. But I think insurance does not pay for a bunch of masks at any one time, per my reading of this list, right?
DeVilbiss IntelliPap Std Plus with Smartflex; Transcend miniCPAP & Everest2 w/humidifier & batt for travel. UltraMirage FFM; PadACheeks; PaPillow. Using straight CPAP at 13.0/passover humidifier. AHI consistently < 1.5. Began CPAP 9/4/08.

good point.

Comfortfull - My first From dme. He handed it to me and said if it leaks into your eyes ask for a liberty. It did I did!
Liberty - I really like this mask, too bad it kept breaking couplers. Oh well.
(2) hybrids - My workhorse. cut the chin flap off both the med and large cushions and use both alternately and use large nasal pieces since they allow the most air through.
