Does anyone use the aura interface. Please let me know if it works well.
Finding a mask that works has been a very difficult task and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!

The Aura (Aeiomed's "Headrest") is my favorite.

Here's a clickable link to a lot of discussions about the Aura:

And while I'm at it, here's a link to discussions about several other masks:

It's my favorite too. It does take a little fiddling, but it is worth it! It is light on your face - sometimes I wake up and have to check to be sure the Aura is still on. No other mask comes close.

I had a lot of trouble initially adjusting it to prevent nasal leaks, but since I was forced to use it because I couldn't use my Activa for awhile, I've found it to provide excellent therapy. It provides wonderful line of sight vision, for watching TV in the bedroom, and a very low touch on sensitive facial tissue. Do apply the rubber band adjustment and adjust it for a good, reasonably tight fit in the nostrils however. At least that's been my experience.
