Large Liberty test drive

Post by echo » Wed Oct 15, 2008 4:29 pm

OK folks, I'm gonna jump on the bandwagon and offer a test trial on a Large Liberty.
I really wanted a liberty but ended up with the wrong size.. but it's a great mask and I don't want to just throw it into the box o' reject masks in the corner - so it's goin' on a test drive!

Warning: I'm a smoker (but not in the house), but I only used the mask twice. It's been more than a month since I used it last, and I'll give it a good vinegar soak before shipping it off. So trial at your own risk.

Rules are the same as the other mask trials... (sorry I'm going to plagiarize you fortomorrow...)

CAVEATS: This is for a LARGE mask but includes all three pillow sizes. Please note that the Liberty only comes in small and large, so large may well fit you! It comes from a smoking household but it's probably best to keep it as a non-smoker trial. The Liberty can be a bit fragile around the clasps and the hose connector, so please treat it with care.

If you want to trial the SMALL Liberty mask, go to fortomorrow's trial: viewtopic/t35474/ResMed-Mirage-Liberty-Test-Drive.html

HOW IT WORKS: PM me your name, email address and mailing address. I'll ship you the mask. You try it out and see if you like it. When you're done (maybe a week or so?), wash it, repackage it carefully, and PM me again to let me know you're done. I'll send you a name and address and you ship the mask off to the next person.

Let the bidding begin! oops I meant PMing

First come, first served!

p.s. If there are desperate requests for an Activa trial, then I may start one on that too. BUT, I think the mask is so great, everyone should just straight-out purchase one! No need to test drive it! Anyway, if you have a sob story (to plagiarize Babs) then PM me... (Also I only have it in the Standard size, unless other people are willing to donate some other size silicone..)

Just as an update, there are currently 4 people on the waiting list for the test drive.

That means it will take about 5 weeks for the mask to reach the next person who signs up for the test drive (not counting postal delays due to the holidays!).

And for those who are on the waiting list but thought I had dropped dead - check your PMs and/or emails.

In the meantime, try your luck with one of the other test drives!

I like to get on the list to try this out...i know the list has a few people in front of me, but I am really trying to find a new mask to purchase, before I get one of my winter sinus infections that will make my Swift LT almost useless...I will send a PM in the next few minutes...thanks!

Are you still doing this test drive.

I am new to CPAP and am having trouble with my Resmed Mirage Quatro leaking. I need a mask that will cover nostrils and mouth but my DME was not eager to let me try it saying that it would cost me. I will send you a PM also.

Thanks.

UPDATE: For anyone else interested in the Large Liberty test drive, it will take about 6 or 7 weeks to get to the next person who PM's me.

Snickers, Echo has been off the board since December. She reported some serious stress in her life and then went silent. I suspect she's not watching her PM's, either.

Just thought you should know.
