Just wanted to praise RemZzzs CPAP full Face cotton mask liners! After trying for approximately two weeks to use my full face, I got very little rest because of constant leaks. DETERMINED to find a way to make it work(sleep apnea was greatly affecting my health/stamina and even my mind), my husband found these liners and ordered them for me. They worked beautifully and I sleep soundly for the fist time in many years!! If you are having problems with the constant leaks, please don't give up, try these things first!! I actually don't go around exhausted anymore. These things should be encouraged by the provders of the machine.

I agree 100% liners should be required with ALL masks.

Many people on this board use liners. ZZZs have been around for a long time. some people use an old T shirt and make their own. padacheek.com has a more permanent liner...it's more expensive. but it lasts a long time.

I reuse Remzzz for a few nights and then toss the used ones in a pile. About every two months I wash them all and afterwards pat them dry with a dish towel. Semi-wet I place them on a few large clean dinner plates and let them dry for an afternoon anywhere that is warm. Next when they are dry, I take them off the plates, I smooth them into a semi-flat form and stack them up on top of each other. No ironing needed. If I use one for more than six months they get a little thin from all the washing so I buy a 30 pack of new ones. After all they are just thin baby jersey you can get in any fabric store. I use a Sharpie to mark the corners so I can tell approximately how long I've used them. Cotton is very soothing on my face and I don't get any breakouts.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

You had me wondering if you were going to stack them and butter and syrup them. Jim
