I like my Comfortlite 2, also.

Mind, I still think the designers of almost all masks are designing for middle-aged, plus-sized bald males with no facial hair, and not for guys like, say, my good-lookin' slender husband with the full beard and great handlebar mustache.

They're also not designing masks for women, since many lab-rat modifications I've seen have been from women.

I really like the direct seal, which figures... the one the fewest people liked is, of course, the one which works best for me. (But hey, getting my leak rate within mask parameters within a month of starting is a Good Thing.)

It's taken me a bit to get used to that elbow on the top -- I may see about lopping it off and replacing it when I get my first replacement mask.

All in all, I think I'm thankful to the pretty competent mask fitter at the sleep center where I went who took several hours to let me try on (sitting and lying down, with various pressures) around a dozen masks. Since this was before my titration, I was actually wearing a fairly comfortable mask for it.

Since then, having the Comfortlite 2 has made things much easier for me. I can emphatically recommend it. (Though I still plan to try other masks.)
