Hi, all! Me again.
So, I've settled on the Airfit N20 with memory foam cushion, as nasal pillows did NOT work for me, and I need the foam lining to protect my very sensitive skin from silicone contact. My only problem is that it seems no matter how I position the mask, tighten the straps, or loosen the straps, even if I'm sitting up in bed, there's often a leak in the lower right corner of my mask, just below my nose. I find that if I mess with the mask enough, I can get it to stop leaking, but then the mask noticeably moves/inflates/deflates I breathe, and each time it moves with the inflate (which is actually when I'm inhaling), it feels like the seal on the bottom of the mask is broken or just about to be broken until the mask deflates/I exhale. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a remedy for this? Thanks!

Watching three or four fitting and adjusting videos helps some people - https://www.youtube.com/results?search_ ... emory+foam

I use the n-20 but not with the foam. I find adjusting the top straps helps eye leaks while adjusting the bottom straps helps with the nose leaks. Good luck !
