Hello All!
These masks are uncomfortable to wear in doing so makes it hard for compliance. The Quattro works better with the leaks then my old mask. I clean the mask and forehead thing daily.. The masks nose piece and the forehead parts are what bother me.
I was looking around at the Pad-a-cheek for the mask that I have. Does anyone here use it, if so does it work? I'd like some opinions before I purchase.
Thanks,
Pad a cheek For Quattro

Hi,
I have the Quattro padacheek and like it. It didn't completely eliminate the nose bridge redness so I put a piece of Mack's silicone putty in that little triangle. Between the Mack's and padacheek, the Quattro no longer gouges my face.

Do any of you guys/gals get "rug burn" on the back of your neck from the Quattro? I have the pad-a-check forehead pad for my husband, which works great... but his neck has a line on the back of it.

I have the Padacheek forehead pad that works great! No more marks on my face in the mornings!
I also have the Padacheek nose bridge protection pad but since I've learned to put on my mask correctly and adjusted it off my nose I haven't had to use it.
I did have the Padacheek nose bridge protection pad for my F&P 407 Nasal and it worked great to get rid of the sore on my nose and it did not make the mask leak. But I don't use that mask anymore because I use the full face Quattro.
Good luck and buy with confidence because the pads work and are inexpensive.
