Buying mask need help

Post by junie » Mon Mar 09, 2009 1:34 am

I'm going to buy another nasal mask, just to have around which one is better,
Mirage Swift 1 Nasal Pillow or the Mirage Swift 11 Nasal Pillow Mask? Right now I'm using the Opilife
and I love it, Thanks.

I'm pretty fond of the Swift LT and have seen lots have shared that affection.

I'm assuming that you're not replacing the Opilife, but just getting another mask. It's hard to replace a mask that you already love. Although, I'm still testing out different masks to see if there's something even better...

If i read this correct you are asking about the Swift vs Swift II nasal pillows? If so they are the same except the Swift II is the replacement with a redesigned exhalation port The currents are Swift II and Swift LT (with a 'Lt for her' variant). The Swift LT is a more direct competitor to the Optilife, with a better design hose/swivel and considerably more stable headgear(IMHO). The Swift LT For Her has a extra small set of pillow seal-xs,s,m vs the regular LT pillows-s,m,l and a supposed softer headgear
