FFM WOES!

AHHH! - felt good to get that out!
Well I'm on a quest to find the perfect FFM for me.....very discouraging , started with a ultra ffm decent results, went to the new quattro works good but i feel like it doesnt vent as well, went to the new quattro fx - no way this mask is ever going to work for me....just got home from dme tried what they said was a forma turns out its really a 432, fit GREAT at the DME felt good didnt leak, got home tried it out dam thing wont stop leaking, why me!! i'm getting desperate im flying out on monday for three weeks, should I go back and try an actual forma? I've heard they fit better and handle leaks better.

Hans Rudolf works the best for me these days.

Are you sitting up in a chair at your DME's for the fittings? Is the machine on with your usual pressure and settings?

If you're not trying on these masks with something at least similar to your conditions at home, you're spinning your wheels. Some people on this forum have been known to take their bed pillow and lie down on the floor of the DME's showroom just to try the mask while lying down! You just cannot extrapolate the fit when you are sitting up in a chair and not at your usual pressure and EPR settings to what the mask will be like for you in bed.

Why didn't the Quattro FX work for you?

The Comfortgel FFM does ok for me because it can be adjusted at lot at the bridge of the nose, but I like that you can tighten the FX at the bridge. I have a small bridge and most masks leak into my eyes.
