Uno, Dos, Tres.....QUATTRO!

Still liking the Sleepweaver camo mask - good numbers, very comfortable, leaks manageable (plus, the invisible-ness of the camo makes sneaking up on Wifey a piece of cake - Dog is not so easily fooled)

That said, still on a mission to find a FFM that works for me (anticipating hay fever season - no way a nasal mask is going to work)

Craigslist is your friend - sort of, I got a large Mirage Ultra for $50 that does not work of me - wrong size/shape I guess.

Monday I scored a new Mirage Quattro (not the FX) in a Medium for $65 - tried it out last night, easy to get it to seal while laying on my back, lots of adjutments - sticky-type surface makes it a really positive seal as I was drifting off, but leaks woke me up after only a couple hours. I don't think it leaks more than the Sleepweaver, but because of the material, the leask are LOUD and farty-sounding - will try tweaking it some more, I like the headgear kind of loose and that may be a problem with this mask.

Man - buying stuff off Craigslist is always sketchy - cryptic emails back and forth and then a meet in some public place to make the "exchange" - always feel vaguely criminal handing over the cash for goods in some parking lot....

Loose actually is good when it comes to masks like the quattro that have air cushion seals. The air cushions don't work without the AIR part, and you can't get air into the cushion if it's mashed up against your face.

That said, if you're on an APAP or you ramp, you need to adjust this mask while at your highest pressure or it will blow when the pressure rises. A pain if you're not on an S9 without the handy, dandy "mask fit" feature. I'm so jealous of that feature!

i had a Quattro FX to start with and couldn't keep it from leaking and sliding up my face... i ramp and maybe that was part of the problem... i have to put my mask on in the bathroom mirror and I have to adjust it pretty tight to get the pillows to seal
