F20 foam mask

I have been using the f20 foam for a few months now and I’m never going back to the old f20 without foam. With the regular f20 I needed to use bandaids on my nose because it irritated my nose at the contact area. No longer needed with the foam and you can make the seal even tighter with bruising. I give this mask an A+++

mmmm. I used the F20 several years ago and gave up on it because it tore up the bridge of my nose, too. I switched to the Resmed Mirage Quattro. It has a knob to adjust the nose bridge tension, Once I get the adjustment set, I seldom mess with the knob or tension. I may check out the F20 foam.

F20 with foam did not work for me. It leaked too much and felt strange so back to the F20 silicon. It was a year ago I ditched F20 for F40 and that made a huge difference for the better. After a few months with F40 I tried F20 and wondered how I ever suffered through it.

Hi! Do you have an issue with the nose seal around the nostrils? I used the Liberty mask years ago, and it is similar to the F40. Infact, it was the first mask the DME gave when I brought my machine home. I had trouble with seal around the nostrils.

Thanks, Sheriff

I found if I put the mask straight to my face, attach the straps, and do not pull or poke the thin silicone under the nostrils it seals okay after I get the headgear situated. By week two I have to tighten the straps. When I replace the F40 cushion each month I can loosen the straps a bit.
