AirFit F10 vs Mirage Quattro FFM

Post by JamesW6175 » Mon May 19, 2014 11:51 am

Which is best or better, and why? I have a Mirage Quattro, and saw this new mask & was wondering if I needed to switch?

The AirFit F10 is more comfortible. I have been using one for 4 days and my AHI's go down each day. The leaks aren't going down as fast. If I can control the leaks a little more, it will be my new mask.

Bump... I'm curious too.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

I've been using the Airfit F10 for two weeks and it is so comfortable. True this is my first FFM so I don't have anything to compare it with except the nasal masks (Wisp & Mirage FX), I'll take the Airfit F10 hands down. Last night was an exception, leaks kept waking me up and I eventually took it off and went back to sleep without it (big no, no, I know). Otherwise, I love it.

I have used both and now only use the Airfit. It is so much lighter than the Mirage. I like the headgear much better and not having the forehead piece.

I have been using the Quattro for about 4 years. I just bought the F10 and tried it one night so far. It woke me up with leaks about 4 hours into the night. Due to oily skin, this was the same result I had with the Quattro before I started using PadACheek liners. I wash my face every night and wash the mask frequently. It may also be because I have higher pressures. I am at 16.5 to 19.5. I have to say the F-10 is very light and very comfortable. I will try a few more times to make it work. It is a very comfortable mask. I am hoping I can make it work with a homemade liner.

Judging from the cpap.com link above, the Airfit F10 looks like a nice replacement for the Quattro FX rather than the Standard Quattro FFM.

The Standard Quattro FFM has the forehead support that works for me.... I could never get the Quattro FX to work for me. Same for the Quattro Air.
