anyone want to trade hybrid for Hans Rudolph 7600

Post by bbeck4x4 » Sun Oct 15, 2006 1:14 pm

I have a fairly new hybrid that I am giving up on, and want to trade for possibly the Hans Rudolph 7600, I have not cut any part of it.

Last night was the final straw for this mask. feel like the walking dead today.

I have all the parts that It comes with, and all parts(that were opened)will be washed with liquid netragena.

I also have a extra set of the headgear never used.

I hear you on giving up on the Hybrid! I've been there and done that too (very expensive mistake). However, before you trade for a HR7600, you might want to consider something else. I think there might be a couple of people on this forum that swear by the 7600, but most everyone else has filed it away in to their "useless" masks drawer.

I am by no means trying to talk you out of it, just make sure you do all of your research on the mask. I can tell you that I personally have tried it and absolutely could not get it to seal around the top of the nose. It was fine if you spent all night flat on your back and didn't move, but the second you put ANY lateral pressure on it (from the pillow or your hand/ arm), the seal was broken. But who knows, you might be one of those rare souls that can get it to work.

good to know, I am a side sleeper, so that may not work, I need to use a full face mask,(apparently I talk in my sleep, big time mask leaks)I figured that if I trade someone that I may be able to try a different mask without purchasing one again.

anyone have any suggestions, I mostly have the usual nasal masks, but not a lot of full face masks.

I am currently using the ultra mirage and it is at least barely working.

The two FF masks that I've seen that receive the best responses are the UMFF and the F&P431 (and now possibly the 432... but I'm waiting for more feedback on this one).

I have not cut any part of it.
Mine would not work at all, until I cut off the chin-flap..
+ Aussie heated hose.

the problem that I am having is that one of the nose pieces will fall out during the night and I wont wake up till a major apnea wakes me up.
