I love my Hybrid.

I started with a ComfortGel. It should be called the ComfortHell. That mask was a train wreck. I can't really tolerate anything against my nose. After that I tried the Opus, but had a mouth leak problem and the nasal pillows were uncomfortable.

Then I came across the Hybrid and I've loved it since the first night. No more chin straps, taping, nose cuts, mask slipping, anything. Some leaks, but every mask needs to be tweaked for leaks and you learn how to fix them over time.

Sorry! Didn't realize you have the ResMed Liberty...not as easy to fit from what I've read. It is a hybrid style mask, just not the Hybrid

I think I'll tty the Hybrid instead.... the DME discouraged me but it seems like it works well for those on this forum. Thanks, all.

I got the Liberty working just fine. Everyone is different. Key is bottom straps tight, top straps loose. Made a big difference.

BS, which hybrid did you order? Whichever it is, I am sure you will find it less uncomfortable (I can't say more comfortable) than the Quattro. Also, no nose bridge marks, as nothing touches the nose. (And as Rooster mentioned previously, you can even scratch your nose when necessary in a hybrid.).
