Just got the N30i in May 2023. They have updated the cushion. Other than the very clip part where it inserts, it is Almost all soft material now. It’s awesome. Love your videos. Always very thorough. Thanks you.
Hey Jason! We just wanted to reach out about the two vent holes you mentioned in the AirFit N30i and the reason why those are there.
So essentially, delivering optimal therapy and breathing comfort are the main challenges for the tube up style mask. As the air enters the mask at the top of the head, it encounters the first vent at the elbow. Enabling a small amount of vented flow at the elbow provides the best pressure performance at the nose and also provides the most comfortable breathing for patients. Flow restriction occurs when delivering positive pressure through the two restricted side frames in to the cushion.
The N30i design team has focused on refining the internal air path design in order to achieve an optimum therapy and breathing comfort. Extensive CFD simulation were carried out to improve the air path lamina flow and reduce choke point that causes turbulence and back pressure, inclusive of adding dual venting. With this optimized air path design, N30i users will receive the most comfortable therapy and breathing experience. Thanks for the review and your videos! We hear you and we'll keep watching.
Thank you for posting that.
Why not a MW cushion?
Hey ResMed why is the top of the frame stretchier than the full face version F30i. The F30i frame fits better and doesn't pull hair.
@ResMedAmericas -- thank you for monitoring UA-cam video posts from us ResMed product users. After using the N30i mask for nearly three years, I was happy and I was getting good therapy while able to manage leaks. Then ResMed changed the cushion to a squishy thing with a removable sound-muffler that holds foul odors after only 12-14 nights of use, thus requiring extra effort to clean.
After 13 months of trying to keep this new N30i cushion from leaking like crazy, I gave up and went to another brand of mask. The change in the N30i nasal cushion was definitely not an improvement for me --- it made the N30i unusable for me. I am now able to again benefit from CPAP therapy as I have a mask that doesn't leak at over 30 L/min no matter what I do.
I LOVE this mask and have used it for two years. The hard plastic never touches my face. And I never feel oxygen-starved.
How long did it take you to get use to it? I'm thinking nasal pillows would be better for me. I started out with a full mask and switched to this one. Now since I've already switched and it's been over thirty days I have to wait until August to try something else. 😣
Well, you're lucky. I always feel like I"m suffocating or under water and the bits of this made my face turn red and swell up where ever the mask or nasal pillow touched me. It too two weeks of antibiotics to get the red and swelling to go away.
I appreciate you and Resmed for contributing to this video . I requested this new mask now that I am up for new supplies being delivered to me . I sure hope I like the new mask .
I cannot thank you enough!! I could not figure out how to put on the headgear with the straps, it’s my first time using the nasal pillows. Thank you so much.
After having a hard time with the hybrid full face I used for years (They put marks on my face and I could never get a really good seal with it) I found this one and I freaking love it. The nasal pillows didn't work because they irritated my nose too much but this one is just right and so easy to put on!! I'm pretty okay with not letting my mouth open at night but sometimes I get a bit dry mouth so I have to work on that. Maybe even get a chin strap. But still the best mask ever.
Thanks for the video! Just sharing my experience in case it can help others. Been using the N20 previously and assumed the N30i worked off the same settings. Had a few problems initially as I had the setting to ‘nasal’ and used the heated tube. The heated tube was heavy and tended to press the top of my head every time I turned. The air also tended to leak more. Changing the settings to ‘pillow’ and using the slim line tube makes a BIG difference. Also added a small washcloth at the top of my head to prevent the silicone tube from pulling my hair. It also helps cushion the top of my head from the tube. Anyway, hope this advise might help someone!
i use a stand by the bed to hold the hose up and a soft cloth on my head before putting this on, I get none of your points here, hope this helps.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling for years with my dreamwear nasal mask because it slides off my head and so I'm readjusting it through the night. I have never even seen a sizing tool like the one you showed and have asked for something like it through Apria to figure out a comfortable mask. I finally (during COVID 19) was able to see a sleep therapist at Apria who still did not measure me but suggested this Airfit mask and had a sample at the office. it looked great and I tried it on and loved the accordion. Now after watching this I am wondering about the hard plastic because i sleep on my side. I never thought to google search the model number before and that is how I found you. Your coverage of the pros and cons and how to size my mask was great though I'm angry that no one ever told me about doing so before. A million thank yous to your expertise!
I have the same problem and don't know how yo fix it
A. There is a small headgear B. There is no hard plastic. I'm not sure if it's updated or what but it all feels like soft neoprene and squishy silicone. I don't like the mask but that's because the cushions imho are not good for women with small nostrils, but the small headgear is great. The standard headgear is medium, you have to specify small headgear.
I see your cat peeking out from the pillow, so cute!
Thank you for your review, I have been wanting to make a mask/headgear change, so this is helpful.
Jason, I have received my n30i coushins and they don't have the hard plastic anymore like the one u had shone it is more of the silicone base .thank u for all the information you provide.
Thanks for the review. I'll ditto the same results on my use.
Thanks for the vid! Been switching from N30 to F30 and now to N30i!
Never tried the P10?
Haha I'm wearing this right now while watching your vid. I wish you had made this video before i bought this two weeks ago. I have to agree with it pushing your nostrils in. I've used the Resmed Swift Fx and loved it for a long time. Thought I'd try something new cause it started leaking. Thought I'd try this out being its Resmed andnlets just say I'm not too thrilled about it. I had to up my pressure from 10 to almost 12 just to get the same air I got from the Swift fx on 10. My next check I'm goin back to the Swift Fx
so far having tried 5 nasal masks, this one is my fave. plastic does not cut in on my face, and it's super quiet.
I began to use this mask after using the Dreamwear version. I really liked it until I purchased a Resmed Airmini with the N20 mask package. Despite the hose in front (I prefer it at the top) I found I got better air delivery and a better fit, especially on my side. With the N30i, the cushion tends to move on me part way through the night and I wake up to an air whistle. I think I will permanently be switching to the N20.
Got my first CPAP ever 5 days ago. My wife has used one for years. This was her favorite mask, so I asked for it with my first order. As far as comfort goes, I love it. I have a REALLY BIG HEAD (hat size is XXL or 8 1/4) and I am a side sleeper. I don't feel the hard plastic like TheLankyLefty27 describes in the video. I do understand what he means by the suffocating feeling. I have experienced that a couple of times my first 5 nights, but to fix it I slightly move the nasal piece to open the holes properly, and all is good. Now, granted, I'm still in the early phase of just trying to get used to sleeping with a mask my face with air blowing up my nose. So maybe once I get past that, I'll have a different opinion and focus more on those other things. I don't think so, but it is a possibility since I'm so hyperfocused on just getting used to the mask and airflow right now. But I love this mask! Oh, and I LOVE having the tube enter at the top. It keeps the connecting tube from getting in my way. I toss from side-to-side all night long anyway due to a bad lower back. Having that tube above and out of the way is very nice. I can easily envision me tying myself into a knot if I had a tube coming out the front. Anyway, love this mask so far.
Yes you get used to it but it takes a little while. I started in 2019 and I would say it took a good month for me to stop hating it so much. Now I really can't sleep without it!!
Perfect Fit. Best Mask i ever had. And i tried a lot. Its so comfortable. Love it!
Agreed.
Best mask of all for me. I've tried them all. This one is the least restrictive and less prone for leakage or coming off or loose during the night. It stays leak free even with the straps very loose.
Really loved the review. I should be picking up my first CPAP next week. I'm really nervous about it but your video really helped eased my mind about how it all works.
You'll be fine. Just know that it's a new way of breathing that you'll need to get used to. Trust the machine and you'll be good!
3 weeks for me, I hate it.......I breathe so loud I can’t fall asleep
Awesome review thank you for sharing! Will definitely be subscribing
When the Dreamwear works it is excellent, however I could never get a reliable seal for any length of time, and had to stop using it. Hopefully this mask will work more reliably.
I ordered this when it first came out after finding a full face mask to feel suffocating. I was able to actually lower my pressure by 1 because it felt like I was getting more air with this. My "trick" when I put it on is to pull open both sides of the nasal mask so it conforms to my nose better. I am also a side sleeper and while it does shift a bit, I find just putting my hand/finger to prop it up helps to stop it shifting. It's not perfect but it feels so much less confining. The downside for me is the material on the straps is not comfortable and I do wake up with marks on my cheeks despite it being there.
I had an appt to be fitted with this mask....but after seeing this...I've cancelled it and will stick with my current mask. Thanks for a great video. Nice taste in guitars.
Well, you showed me why mine is driving me insane. The headset is too big. I use a small, am female and now I can actually tell what the problem is. Maybe Monday night I can sleep.
Very helpful thanks. Iam guessing the reason for the 2 air holes (front & top) is if you bury your nose in pillow and block the exhale vent with your pillow the air can escape through top vent?
I was initially given the Dreamwear Nasal Pillows mask. I hated it from day one. Between getting my doctor to rewrote the script to get mask fit and waiting for the DME to have the time to come back to me, it took literally 4 weeks. I tried on about 7 different masks and ended up choosing this one. After just one night, I can say that this is better. The Dreamwear pillows irritated my nostrils and the Dreamwear cushion irritated the underside of my nose. This is made with softer silicone and simply feels better. The nurse who brought me the CPAP supplies said that ResMed took all the complaints of the Dreamwear and then made this mask. Seem like ResMed got it right.
Liked & subscribed. Hey Lefty. I'm a new papper, still in my first full week of using the equipment. Your channel is great; much appreciated! The tech that set me up with my equipment gave me the N30i, and I'm finding that it definitely gets pushed around while I'm sleeping on my side, causing me all kinds of different nostril restrictions. Combine that with the sensation of reduced air flow when one side of the delivery tubing get shut off when I'm laying on my side, and I'm lookig for something more comfortable. I've checked out your video on the Resmed nasal mask, and it looks promising. Thanks for your everything you do and I'll be checking out the rest of your videos!
Best of luck to you! Thanks for the sub.
Very informative Thanks
Will be supporting. Love ya and your channel!!
Thank you Jason for this very useful review. I always enjoy watching your videos. I started CPAP therapy only just two months ago and haven’t found the right mask yet. The ResMed Mirage FX suited me best so far, but caused a sore spot right underneath my nose. The AirFit P10 was just too painful on my mucous membranes. I currently use the Quattro Air, but can’t find a good fit (M is too small and L is too large). Thankfully my home care services here in The Netherlands are excellent and I’ll have another representative visiting after the weekend to try out some more options. I’ve asked them to bring along the N30i as well, since it appealed to me. I’m eager to try it out, but I’ll make sure to pay extra attention to the disadvantages you mentioned.
Thanks for the review. I have this mask and can’t say that the hard plastic bothers me at all. Actually when I lie on my stomach it stops the silicon from collapsing. I do feel the air holes are a bit small and I definitely need the strap across the back to keep things in place. Only problem is that it moves around on the back of my head, as my skull is not flat at the back, and it’s slips up and gets loose.
i have this and the airfit n20. This kills it in terms of comfort and results. I now have 2 of these ( just in case ). Way more comfortable than the airfit n20 and get much more undisturbed sleep.
I took sleeve off frame found it to a great pain my daughter poured some corn starch down sleeve it went on with far less problems
Hello Jason, Nice video. I believe the (i) is for the type of mask that has the tubing connector at the top of the mask rather than at the nose area. I was diagnosed with having sleep apnea. my doctor prescribed me with the mask and machine. he started me with the full face mask. Just recently I decided to change the mask for a nasal mask. after I had been with the full face mask for about a year and a half but it started to feel uncomfortable. so I decided to order the nasal mask and try it out to see if I like it better. I have the resmed autosense 10 machine. I have asked my doctor to change my air pressure to a bit higher. I'm too used to the air pressure settings I had before. After viewing the types of masks out there I chose and ordered the resmed airfit N30.I am going to try it out andif I don't like it for some reason, then I will change it for the N30i.
best cpap channel!
Great presentation
Great review!
I agree with everything
Solid review. I also felt starved for air when I tried this mask. And I personally didn't find it to be that quiet while on bi-level. Plus the headgear tubing is gigantic on my noggin'.
I feel exactly the same way. I have tried it 3 different times since getting my cpap machine. I just wanted to like it more than the nose pillows, but just don’t. Is there a reason I feel I can’t breathe well in it?
I learn the "I" is for the head connect for the hose, so you'll find all the different models with the head connection ends with the i.
i think they have modified the nasal pillows since this review. I just got one and the pillows are quite comfortable. I have to admit I started out with the mask on backwards and thought the frame was too small. Thanks for showing the proper way to use this mask.
I see that you already discovered you were using the P30i. :^)
The i is added for those with the snorkel type headgear.
Thanks for the great info!
Recién hace dos días comencé a utilizar el CPAP con ese modelo de mascarilla, aunque esperaba que fuera confortable, resulta que estas dos primeras noches me ha resultado complicado lograr ajustar la misma, no obstante su video me ha ayudado a corregir posibles errores en el proceso del ajuste de la misma. Espero que esta noche me resulte mejor. Gracias por su video. Saludos fraternales desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.
可惜沒有讲华语的视频
Thanks for the information and for making it entertaining as well. : )
You are very welcome! Thank you!
I know this is an old video but I just watched it so I hope you don't mind my comment. This is a very good review of this mask. I like the n30i a lot, dream wear restricted my air also. I think the the "i" in n30i and p30i stands for interchangeable.
I very much appreciate this video, the VA hospital gave no instructions
very informaitve, what would be good for side sleepers and if i toss and turn often?
Interesting video. I have the Resmed P10 pillows. Healthcare companies are no longer providing the masks as a unit. Everything is separated and charged separately. The Headband is now $25. The Nasal Pillows are $19 each. It’s ridiculous. A la carte. They just sent me a new mask. No headband. Smh 🤦♂️
Hey Jason, I think, I, for the first time do NOT agree with you :)
I have used Philips Dreamware Nasal Pillows and used "eye blowing leak" problem during the sleep. Then I had to purchase "gel pillow" to attach Dreamware and I started to use it as a daily basis. But then I decided to give a shot to ResMed AirFit N30i and I loved, loved it, loved it and loved it. It's amazing, it really covers the nose very well and I had never issued leaking problem during the night. Also, my wife confirmed N30i is very silent compared to Dreamware Nasal or Gel Pillows as well (but you had confirmed it already). Anyway, I really recommend people to give a chance to this mask.
For sure. Masks fit people differently. I simply offer my opinion on it. I absolutely appreciate you offering yours!!! Thanks eozen81!
I hate it
are you a side sleeper?
@@AllanLaal if you ask to me, yes I am.
Jason, you may prefer the P30i variant better as the nasal pillow cushion does not appear to be rigid like the nasal cradle. I’ve been using the N30i for about 5 months and find it really works well for me. I just ordered the P30i cushion to see if I could love this mask even more.
Frank Shelby yes the P30 cushion clicks right in.
Thank you so much, I appreciate your video!! It was a really good !!!
Glad it hasn't rode up into my eyes over the night!
After using the Dream Wear Full Face Mask [medium size] for about two weeks or less i developed a sore on the bottom of my nose [also some leaking and can't seem to get it to fit right] and had to go back to my Amara View Mask which has it's own problems ! I'm thinking of trying the Air Fit 30 Full Face Mask but it's looks so similar to the Dream Wear Mask i'm afraid i might have the same problem i'm having the Dream Wear Mask. Any thoughts ? Thank You for the great reviews !
Just bought a new N30i today. It is a second generation now and they have removed all/most of the hard plastic on the nose - all soft now... also added small cotton filter too :) Awesome upgrade for the mask. @thelankylefty27
I found the opposite. After being happy with the n30i for a few years I have gone back to the Dreamwear. The new soft piece restricts pressure and caused sores beneath nose.
Wish they would offer both old and new models.
Looks like ResMed has updated this since you put out your video. The hard plastic on the sides is gone and now is just straight silicone
hello Jason, I had just received my hurricane dryer and nasal mask airfit N30i. it came in a red colored bag in a small frame size attached with a medium nasal cushion. Isn't the red colored bag for women? Any it kinda fit just right, although I don't have a big head. Now the nasal cushion is a medium but i ordered a small N30i cushion and a small wide N30i cushion today so i can try out other cushion sizes to find the right feel.
I’m getting a cochlear implant soon, I’m worried the strap will put pressure on the magnet under the scalp skin. Also which is the one that’s identical to this mask with no hard plastic?
Started using the N30i and sometimes it fits amazingly but sometimes I wake up with a high AHI and I feel like crap during the day. I don't know if I'm wearing the wrong size or what?
Does the sizing chart in this video also go for the sizing for the P30i nasal pillow too?
Hey I use this one and it is fantastic! I think for someone that likes to bury their face in the pillow the two air vents allow this which is so good....it means I can sleep normally and comfortably.
Don’t you hear yourself breathing,,,it distracts me
are you a side sleeper?
hi,i have the dream wear for almost a year, I find it gave me an head cold, it is leaking cold on top of my head tube and I'm getting headache any subjection.
Jason, thank you for your review. I am a Sleep Lab Tech. I use the Airfit N30i at 14cm. I prefer this over the Dreamwear, only because of a bit of leakage at that pressure. I also found that the measuring guide provided was not accurate. I have a flatter face, so the hard plastic on the AirFit cradle wasn't an issue.
Love your video 😂
How do i deal with condensation in my masks??? I try adjusting the temperature and the humidity levels with no luck! Currently i have my resmed machine at level 2 of humidity and the temp between 79-76, if i bring the temp higher i have dry and sorr throat same if i lower the humidity level. What advise you can give me????
Jason, I think the size small cushion might work better for you. At least that is what I found. I technically measure for a medium, but the small is MUCH better for me. I don't have any issues at all with the plastic part of the cushion when I use the small cushion. I did have some challenges getting used to this mask, but that is typical for me. It seems to always take several weeks of a love/hate relationship with a new mask before I can figure out if it is a good choice or not. Now, the N30i is my main mask. My AHI is always under 2 and I typically sleep around 7 hours without waking up.
For me, the N30i is MUCH more stable than the DreamWear. I always thought the DreamWear 'wiggled' too much - maybe because of my long hair. And the N30i it doesn't 'encourage' wrinkles on my face like my prior favorite, the N20. So for me, the N30i is a winner.
I tried it as well but had the same air starvation feeling I did with the Small Wide.
Dam :/ looked like we had an alternative to the dream wear ... I need to get a new mask soon but I guess I'm sticking to my guns xD
ResMed has brought out a new version of the nasal cushion for this mask. No hard plastic, and diffuse venting...puts it above the Dreamwear in my estimation. The only thing that I thoroughly dislike about the Dreamwear is the stream of air from the vent hole in the nasal cushion. Unfortunately it isn't yet available in the US, but coming! Watch for it!
Will do. Thank you!
I found very noisy but worked well otherwise. used the standard Medium - the M/S was leaky
I m back on my trusty Ultra Mirage II
Can you please talk about the attachment to the air…..mine did not come with any attachment on the top of the head. I have a nasal mask …. Can I use this in some way if I can detach the plastic long plastic bit that goes up the nose ?
I like the new N30i mask now, after using this for a few months. Should the filter be removed before cleaning? Thanks for the review.
So is it ok if when you're side sleeping and you're essentially pressing the air tube down on the side that you're sleeping on?
Can you put like a cushion on the plastic part that digs into your mouth ?
if after cleaning the airfit n30i mask if there is residual water left can one use it safely or has to dry out completely.
I used an "Optilife Nasal Pillow and Cradle Cushion" for many years, and recently, I was forced to start using an "Airfit p30i". My comment is, before, with my old mask, it was easy to clean, but with the Airfit p30i, it almost impossible to clean inside the headgear. Luckily I can afford a "Soclean" otherwise, I'm not sure about cleaning this new mask.
what one do you recommend and how about a full face one? what is the cats name
I have this mask and recently took off the side cushions for cleaning. I wish I had of left them on or saw this video first. I can’t get them back on and haven’t used the mask since. What do I do? Is there a tutorial on how to put them back on? I’m stuck and about ready to abandon the N30i, please help
For those curious, "the other alternative" mentioned at the end is Philips Respironics Dream Wear Mask.
You asked a follow up about ASV....I can't find that thread again!!! The cost is the main reason they aren't prescribed to everyone. They also aren't all that great at treating "run of the mill" sleep apnea. Straight CPAP is much more effective.
@@Freecpapadvice Thanks Jason! I am a tech journalist (suffering from OSA). Let me know if you ever need any content or article written on any topic. Would love to do it for free, and support your work.
( I )means tube attaches to the top
wondering, if the Dreamwear cushion will fit on the N30i frame. as it looks to me like the N30i frame and swivel is better but the Dreamwear cushions are softer/better. it would be kool if a hybrid could be improvised. so please, let us know. thnx. 👍😎
No, they aren't compatible at all.
whats the minimum hrs one has to take a bipap machine for patients with copad .
Thanks for the review. Did you check if the cushion on the dw fits? I like dw but I'm having serious problems with leaks, some days above 24L. If I make it too tight, it hurts my cheeks. Afraid to give it up. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I wear a small size cushion. Thanks again!
It doesn't fit at all. Though at first glance it appears to be similar....they are nothing alike!!! Also, the leaking that you describe doesn't sound bad at all whether that's intentional or unintentional leak. Even if it's unintentional it's a great leak rate.
@@Freecpapadvice thank you so much!
Thanks for the video! Do you mind doing a review of the Bleep Sleepware mask?
Other than the 5 that I've already done?
@@Freecpapadvice Oh, sorry! I'm new to the channel and to CPAP!
LOL!!! All good. If you just search for the term "Bleep" while in my channel you'll get a slew of matches. The review (most recent) is really the only one that you'd likely care about. The others were the best information I had at the time....but were with the founder and inventor. Here is the most recent video on the subject....the review: ua-cam.com/video/sZzaY2KAt0c/v-deo.html
The va gave me this for first mask and i been having trouble, looking for more options.
Is there a way to stop all the air flow into mouth if mouth opens during sleep 😴
3:55 Ahww, poor Stuart :)
Could you post your recommendations for the best way to clean your CPAP, thanks!
Just wash it with tap water and hang in a clean place.
I wash mine in warm water with Johnson’s baby shampoo and rinse in plain water then hang out to dry
@@aaronmconie534 that's what I do as well. I like how fast they dry.
I just got one of these and before using it i wanted to learn more about it and came across your video. My question is what is your recommendation for best agronomically comfortable CPAP Mask. I am side sleeper and cannot tolerate anything that pokes too much into my face.
If you don't like things poking into your face...you're probably going to hate this mask. You might want to look at the P10, P30i, the Swift FX Nano, or the Bleep Dreamports.
@@Freecpapadvice Thank you for the recommendations. I tired the N30i last night and i could not use it at all. Once i put it on i had a hard time inhaling enough air and seemed like i was not getting enough air going into my lungs. So i am not sure if this to be expected as a new user or something else is going on here and ot i need a different mask to help me breath better.
Out of curiosity do you take your machine off when you go to the rest room? The data collection on the machine will record as a massive leak lol
I don't know if you've got your information... the ''i'' in P30i stands for ''having the tubing connection on top''.
Can you use the mask system from dreamstation with the resmed? Will the tube connect the same way?
Yes
The Dreamwear's frame was too small for me, this one, because of the accordion, fits well. The nasal pillows do not, basically for the reasons Jason mentioned. Since the pillows from the N30i and the P30i are interchangeable, I will order the pillows from the P30i when I get an answer from Resmed as to the size naming issue. The N30i does not have a Large but the P30i does so, I have to assume that the Large from the P30i will be the same as the Large from the P10. Although cheapcpapsupplies asks for province and country, you can't order from Canada...
I'm curious to see how that works out for you. Please let us know. Thanks!
@@kirkdecker6228 Resmed told me that the Pillows were "about" the same size on the P30 and P10 so I ordered the Large and have been using it for a few days. The noise level is slightly less on the P30 than the P10. The nasal inserts seem to be softer and therefore do not hurt my nose, the P10 when brand new always did because the elastic is tighter but the P30 has adjustment. the P30 is bulkier but still very comfortable and you forget it is there. I still think the only thing missing to the P10 is an adjustable headband. Also with the P30, you can take a sip of water during the night without making a mess, quite difficult with the P10. The P30 also lets the air out at both ends which means you don't have a jet of air shooting at your pillow or worse, at your partner. Lastly, I am a side sleeper and have and no problem on either side. Hope this helps
Thanks my guy. I've had the full mask for 2yrs and it's become intolerable!
I'd be interested to see if they come out with a full face version of this. I've been using the Dreamwear Full Face for quite awhile. I sized a medium, but had problems with leaks from the mask shifting. I moved up to the large cushion and it has been perfect, consistently very low leak numbers, excellent AHI and I have found it to be very comfortable and quiet.
See my previous video: Airfit F30. That’s the full face version.
I couldn't get used to a nasal cradle. I was never able to breath successfully no matter which cradle I tried.
My cushion suddenly quit remaining attached to the frame
i means top of the head attachment
New to cpap therapy and having a hard time finding a mask. Anyway did u know this mask was upgraded and they got rid of the hard plastic. I just got one but since I’m a side sleeper as soon as I lay down it seems to push the pillow into the side of my nose and close my nostril and then I leak air out of the other. I don’t know what to do. Thinking of trying the dreamwear but not sure if it will matter. I was given the small only otherwise I might try the small wide? The pillow with the nostril tips is making my nostrils hurt. Ps. I am a woman. Thanks for your great videos and all the info.
Yes. I'm in the process of getting the new all silicone cushion. You might want to check out the Fisher Paykel Brevida, P10, and especially the Bleep Dreamway.
If your nostrils are hurting with a nasal pillow mask, try rubbing aloe gel or lansinoh cream on the inside of your nostrils prior to putting on your pillow mask.
I'm new with this stuff, what's a better alternative?
Crickets......they all suck
How can I get in touch with you? is there any way?
Tried giving this mask a shot again and yep....I fkn hate it! It literally crushes my nose in and starves me of air. And I also hate that I can hear the air rushing down past my ear when I lay on my side Need my money back on this pos mask. My Resmed Swift FX is still by far my fav
