"I HAVE BEEN ON CPAP SINCE 1997, AND HAVE USED MANY MASKS OVER THE YEARS, BUT THIS MASK/ HEADGEAR COMBO HAS TO BE THE ABSOLUTE WORST. 1st of all, the mask and headgear do not work well together. It is almost impossible to get a decent seal, and if you do, nearly impossible to maintain it. I believe my head and face to be pretty average in that there are no unusual anatomical features, my size is the standard, medium or occasionally small, and I have used without problem or issue the PROFILE LITE, GOLDSEAL, COMFORT GEL, BREEZE AND MANY OTHERS AND MANY TYPES OF NASAL PILLOWS FROM THE ADAMS CIRCUIT ONWARD. SOME I LIKED BETTER THAN OTHERS BUT I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. If you sleep on your back, face forward and unmoving, you may be able to use this mask. If you move even slightly the headgear is all over the place and the seal is history. I move very little and I could not use it. The mask itself seems to be good quality and comfortable GEL but so what if it is unusable. I think some other form of headgear is needed to make this product usable. Till then, save your money. One nights wrestling with this mess only to go back to my old mask was enough. Into the trash with it where it belongs."

"nice mask, nice headgear. However, the upper portion of the mask that rides over the bridge of the nose and settles between the eyes, has no means of adjustment and therefore, on every exhalation, air was escaping close to my eyes. This was bothersome in terms of the noise & the airflow. Also, on this mask, and on a similar item from this same company that does have some ability to adjust the bridge part, the 15" feeder hose that connects to the main hose, while adequate in itself, is made from a lighter plastic than the main hose. While this presents no problem in usage, I feel that this part will be the first point to suffer damage in handling due to its lightness of manufacture."

"Was shipped quickly, which was appreciated, our previous mask had a blow-out! The 3-point headgear was different than the one we had before, so we just used the old one. The new one will be used for backup. Thanks so much for a timely delivery! Will order from this site again."

"This mask is very comfortable but I have been having problems with it leaking in the middle of the night. If I sleep on my back it is fine but if I turn to the side it leaks and wakes me up."

"I AM HAPPY WITH THE MASK, ALTHOUGH HEADGEAR COULD BE A PROBLEM TO PEOPLE WITH LARGER HEADS, AS IT SEEMS A LITTLE SMALL. MASK IS STAYING IN PLACE VERY WELL, AND DOES NOT BLOCK VISION MUCH. OVERALL A GOOD MASK ESPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE."
