Close, But No Cigar

"I got the model with the denim headgear. I found the headgear very comfortable. I also found the nasal pillows very comfortable.
Unfortunately, for me there is a fatal flaw. The hose is held to the headgear with velcro straps. They mostly do a good job of preventing the hose from moving around. EXCEPT, they do nothing to prevent the hose from rotating within the straps. If I move around in the night - and I do - the hose rotates causing the nasal pillow to try and move sideways out of my nose. This often wakes me. If it doesn't wake me, it often pulls the nasal pillow out. I lose the benefit of the CPAP. Worse, the noise wakes my wife, which is a really bad thing."

ADAM Interface w/Denim Headgear & 3 sets of nasal pillows

"I do not care for the Denim Headgear because it is very difficult to use - the cap kept sliding off and I did have it set up correctly. I really liked the design but something needs to be done with it to keep it on - maybe some tie straps like a bonnet or some other material that does not slide."

Badly Misrepresented

"This product was advertised as being a solution for users that like to sleep on their sides. I have in the past used Swift, OptiLite and ComfortGel masks all with success but in each case having some problems with moderate leaks for somebody that sleeps on his side and moves from side to side. Since this was advertised as ideal for that type of sleeper, I tried it. It is a disaster. First the two side straps that velcro to the headpiece are completely uncomfortable when sleeping on your side. Second, the entire mask is so rigid that any movement at all causes significant leaks and a movement from side to side is virtually impossible. The other three types of masks that I had previously used are vastly superior to this one."

Much Improvement

"Now I can finally sleep on my sides again in comfort! I initially had the nasal pillows with the head gear that strapped across the face and the tubing connected on the side. It was comfortable lying on one side but not on the other. Now I can turn from side to side without a problem."

"This mask is easy to adjust and highly recommended for people who like to sleep on their sides at night. No mask is going to be perfect, or 100% comfortable but this one certainly comes close."
