ResMed has completed a total redesign of the Mirage Swift series of pillow masks. Changes can be seen on the headgear, pillow cushion, and overall performance.
Ultra-Quiet Almost twice as quiet than the original Swift and 71% quieter than the Swift II. The air vent is located on the frame instead of the cushion and disperses air gently downward more in line with natural breathing.
Small, Lightweight, and Travel Friendly At 2.3 ounces, this mask will not weigh you down. It has one of the smallest footprints that covers less of the face. The pillows rest gently just under the nose. The mask's frame is half the size of both previous Mirage Swift designs. It folds up for easy travel and comes with its own carrying case. The minimal design creates comfort and helps users with better therapy effectiveness and allows for reading or watching TV at bedtime, even with glasses on.
Improved Pillows Pillows now come with a dual-wall design that provides improved stability and comfort. Along with an added flexible pillow base, the cushion allows for movement without breaking the seal. All pillow sizes are interchangeable with the mask frame.
Headgear Unlike any headgear before, the Swift LT uses a patented rotating barrel to adjust the pillow angle. The stability arms expand to accommodate most facial widths including narrow or wide faces.
Easy Fitting The Swift LT comes with Small, Medium, and Large size pillows included and fitting is quick and easy. After initial fitting and adjustment of the Velcro straps, there is no need for daily readjustment.
Ease of Cleaning Assembly and disassembly are simple and easy, with very few parts, making for effortless cleaning or replacement of parts.

Product Challenges are head to head competitions between two similar products. Only real CPAP users determine the superior product after testing both in their home for a 2-3 week period.
What Participants liked about the Swift LT: "It is comfortable, portable, and quiet. The pillows are soft and flexible, and seem to almost ‘melt’ onto your nare." – Randall P.
Participants found the mask lightweight
Easy to clean due to snap in pillows and clearly marked parts for reassembly
Dual sided pillows offer a great seal
Secure enough for many active sleepers
What Participants want improved about this mask: "Much lighter and therefore more comfortable. After a few months of use, the straps lose their elasticity and need to be adjusted more frequently throughout the night." – Manfred S.
To find a good seal takes a lot of initial experimenting, but once achieved the seal stays intact.
Several mention a need for the mask to achieve a seal without agitating pressure points on the nasal septum and upper lip

Additional Product Challenge Results Swift LT

Product Challenges are head to head competitions between two similar products. Only real CPAP users determine the superior product after testing both in their home for a 2-3 week period.
What Participants liked about the Swift LT mask: “I've tried 5 different masks (all nasal pillow style), and the Swift LT is the only one I like and the only one I will buy again.” – Ronald C
23 of those who selected the Swift LT mask did so because of the superior fit. The most common problem experienced by all participants was fit.
No participants experienced waking up with red marks on their face from the Swift LT
Many preferred the independently adjustable pillows
Most found the mask easy to clean do to snap in pillows and clearly marked parts for reassembly
What Participants want improved about this mask: “This mask [the Swift LT] is great if you adjust it to fit and then don't move. But if you are a 'active' sleeper you will be disappointed as you will often wake up and have to readjust to get your proper seal back.” – David G.
6 out of the 7 participants who mentioned their bed partners in their review requested a modified exhaust port. The air vented straight out, preventing participants from facing their partners in bed.
11 participants want a softer top attachment clip, similar to but more stable than the Velcro of the Opus 360

"For the past two years I was using the Mirage Swift I & II Nasal Pillow masks. They were the smallest, most comfortable mask I could find... until now.
The Mirage Swift LT Nasal Pillow is amazing. I'm a side sleeper and this mask works perfectly for me. It is tiny and very comfortable. It seals very well."
Very Noisy

"I purchased this mask because I wanted to try a nasal pillow mask made by Resmed since I have a Resmed CPAP that requires Resmed masks. The mask is extremely noisey and I had a hard time getting it to seal. I tried all 3 sizes of pillows. The small size doesn't leak but it is twice as loud as the medium and large pillows. I wish I hadn't purchased it."

"Nasal pillows have always worked best for me, but the Adam set I've used for 10+ years has always leaked - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot; fit was dependent on sleep position. Using the Mirage Swift LT Nasal Pillow has provided virtually leak-free fit regardless of sleep position. It is great! My concern the hard arms supporting the nose piece would leave impressions was groundless. I have minimal or no facial marking, much less than with the neoprene straps on the Adam system. Another big plus is noise; this new mask is very quiet, partly due to no leaks, but mostly because of the many fine vents instead of one big blow-hole. Only downside is I no longer sleep with self-generated "white noise" to cover other night sounds.
I am very pleased with this new mask after a weeks use. My second Swift LT (travel and spare) is on order."
Great

"I just wanted to say that Mirage Swift LT Nasal Pillow
CPAP Mask with Headgear, is one of the best mask that I own at this time. I had taken it out of the box. And tired it on. I used it that night. Not problems want so ever."
Works well for me

"I read the other reviews and was concerned about getting a leak-free fit without having the pillows push hard against my nostrils but have had no problem at all. It's about as close as I can imagine to not wearing anything at all.
The headgear took a little adjusting to get comfortable...the first two nights the descending straps were cutting against my ears but when I loosened the back strap to move them forward a bit the problem disappeared.
I also started with the medium pillows for a week before switching to the large. Figure it's going to take a little while to get everything to fit just right. But when it does it's very comfortable."
