EasyLife compared to Activa LT

[newname]

How does the EasyLife compare to Activa LT? I'm due for new mask and might like to try it. What I've notice is that the Resmed headgear has the easy off clips and I don't think any of the Respironics have easy off clips. Am I right?
Reading the description of the EasyLife sounds similar to Activa LT, but I'm not sure.
Has anyone worn both and decided which is more comfortable?

I'm also interested in the EasyLife mask, so I'd like to hear comparisons too. I have the Activa LT, and I like it very much. It's lightweight, I can wear the straps loose and it seals well.

I'm not certain, but these inexpensive "headgear quick clips" may work with the Respironics EasyLife mask: https://www.cpap.com/productpage/Respir ... -Clip.html.

The quick clips do work with it. I can't help you on the comparison though because I have never tried the Activa.

The quick clips do work with it.

That's great to know! Thanks, bailachel.

They are very different masks and feel completely different on. The LT balloons up a lot more, its cushion pulsated on me. Its cushion is more plastic/vinyl like feel. The EasyLife has a double cushion that feels like dusted, very soft silicone. It does not have as much "give" (for lack of a better term) as the LT. It doesn't stick out as much off of your face, the EasyLife is thinner in profile. I can't stand the ResMed forehead pads, the two screw holes end up being the focus of the entire pad's pressure and create little pea bumps on my head. If I loosen it to where it doesn't do this, its too dang loose (and I can handle loose masks!). So it goes without saying that I much prefer the EasyLife's forehead pad. But I even prefer it to the other Respironics forehead pads, which I do like. The EasyLife's pad is not as wide, and therefore doesn't interfere with or get displaced or acquire pressure from my pillow.

I like them both, but could not get any of the sizes in the EasyLife to fit.

I have been on cpap for 5 months and have tried several masks, the longest I was able to keep one on was 4 hrs, most nights only 2 hrs,I got the easylife and have used it for 3 nights now and kept it on for 7 to 8 hrs, so I am very pleased with it , it does not leak and is very light on my face.
