Good Comfort, Poor Durability
May 02, 2008
(2 out of 5) by JS, San Antonio, TX
"I've been using the ComfortGel nasal Mask for about six months now and have found it to be much more comfortable than the brand I used before: it seats well, is relatively quiet, and is generally a great mask - but for one thing: it's not very durable at all.
The sockets of the ball-and-socket connection between the straps and the mask are very thin and flimsy plastic, and over time, they crack and fall apart. Once that happens, the mask is pretty much ruined - I've tried glues and tapes, and there's just no repairing it.
As a result, I've had to buy FOUR of them in the past six months.
I'm currently experimenting with another brand - it's noisier and less comfortable - but as my insurance only pays for one mask per year, I really can't afford to keep using the ComfortGel mask."

"The comfort Gel is the only mask i have used. I works well for me. The only negative thing is that, the slot were the head gear connects to the mask broke on me; i had to use a hot glue gun in the middle of the night to make repairs. Respironics does not sell the mask housing alone; you have to buy the entire mask!"

A little fragile but oh so comfortable
April 30, 2008
(4 out of 5) by Gary S, ANTIOCH, CA
"I've tried a few masks and these are the most comfortable I've used. I tried the nasal pillows and they irritated my skin -- I have a full beard and the ComfortGel masks still fit just fine.
The only problem is that the small clips that hold the headgear on the main part of the mask get fragile over time and inevitably break. My last one lasted about 9 months though, so it's not enough to prevent me using them."
