Yes, that blue eyed beauty is my cat! He is a seal point, bi-color Ragdoll. I adopted him in '08 from folks who could no longer care for him. He is a joy and makes me smile each and every day.
Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Thanks Emilia,
I went ahead and signed up. Never know I might actually win something which would be a miracle itself.
Someone sent me the original SleepWeaver to try and I just haven't got around to trying it. I tried the Aloha instead.
Guess it wouldn't hurt me to try it at least once. I just don't like anything touching the bridge of my nose and haven't got up the guts to try it.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
I'd been thinking about trying the sleepweaver; now I have a new dilemma.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
I tried the sleepweaver during my titration study. I really, really wanted it to work. I couldn't get the leaks under control. I've got a small face. I think if it came in a smaller size then it might work. This one looks interesting.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Interesting design. I too have thought about ordering the sleepweaver, but I have so many masks that didn't work out that I was reluctant to pay the price for one.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
I agree - the new SW looks interesting. I LOVE mine, but still wrestle with some leaks, but the comfort is very worth the effort. Yes, it sits on the bridge of your nose, but there's no pressure as such there. The SW is so light you hardly notice it's on your face at all. Also, it's much cooler than any other mask as there's no silicone or plastic on your face.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Looks interesting, the cooler factor would really work for me. The silicone sure gets warm!

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Many, many thanks for the heads up on this one. I definitely signed up to be notified. I'd love to try a fabric mask.
Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Interesting that this is coming on the heels of the new design of the traditional sleepweaver. I've just ordered one of those to try in the hope that it will lessen my discomfort from sweating into the silicon. The DME said that they don't recommend it, but a friend was really enthusiastic. Guess this is another example of "individual mileage my vary."
For those worried about the cost of a mask that turns out not to work for a particular individual, our hosts at cpap.com have a generous offer right now. The sleepweaver ($99) comes with free return insurance. If it doesn't work, it can be returned in 30 days for only the cost of the shipping. That was a dramatically better deal than buying the mask at my DME ($145) or the local cpap retail store ($170) with no option to even try it on before buying it at either place, and no return.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Yes, and I recently got the "new design", which for me turned out to be an awful mask! I felt like I couldn't breath. Strange feeling b/c I never have that feeling with the Swift FX. I'm going to call my DME in the morning to see if I can return it and get the Elan instead. It looks much more comfortable and worth a try.gertrude wrote:Interesting that this is coming on the heels of the new design of the traditional sleepweaver.

My DME called the manufacturer - they said the Elan wouldn't be on the market until end of August or early September.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
Maybe, maybe not. I think it is common for online suppliers to get things ahead of regular DME suppliers. We found that out with the Aloha and Bella Loops. To test the market maybe.chunkyfrog wrote:Then, obviously someone is full of ca-ca, as our hosts are projecting Monday, June 18.
Also some DMEs purchase through wholesale houses..maybe they don't expect to have it until later.
And maybe someone just doesn't know what they are talking about...nah...that would never happen in the DME world would it.

Re: Coming Soon: New Sleepweaver élan
You would think that DME's would get priority for new releases, assuming their contracts would specify so.
But then, negotiation requires a completely different skillset from pure BS.
