"My sister highly recommended this mask, so I decided to give it a try. I have been using the Comfort Lite2 with direct seals for about 2 years.
Pros: The swivel adapter for the hose works really well, giving me no problems with the hose during the night. The vent hole doesn't blow air into my eyes. I really like its light weight and that only the nasal pillows touch my face.
Cons: The user's guide wasn't very good. The diagrams are the kind we saw in manuals in the 1960's and the instructions on nasal pillows doesn't mention that they have an orientation. The direction they are inserted into the shell does matter.
The mask worked fine while on my side, but when I moved to my back, I couldn't keep the pillows from shifting around and the cradle at the back of my head was uncomfortable. After a few nights of this, I took the cradle and spine adapter off, and replaced them with a cotton headband stretched from the clip to the nape of my neck. Problem solved and much less gear on my head.
I haven't been able to get the great seal that many others have with the nasal pillows. I bought all three sizes, but none of them work nearly as well nor are as adjustable as the direct seals on my ComfortLite2. The wing knob on the Breeze makes only angle adjustments. The hard shell doesn't allow adjustments in the distance between the pillows without removing and reinserting them.
Right now, I switch between the two, still working on a better experience with the Breeze."

The BEST if you are a side sleeper

"If you sleep on your side, especially if you change sides during the night, this is the best mask I've tried. No fumbling about or having a hose in your way. Even sleeping on my stomach is comfortable and I don't get the air blowing back into my face as with the Swift. There appears to be much less air being released trough the front than with others. Also very quiet. The only thing I would improve is to have a little padding on the piece that sits on the top front of your head."

Disappointed

"Before placing my order for the Breeze SleepGear System, and having read sever positive reviews, I was confident this was a sleep headset I was looking for. To say the least, I am quite dissapointed with this device. While the Nasal Pillows are terrific, they don't do much good if they are not in constant contact with your nose. The problem I experienced is with the lack of secureness of headset. The rigid metal band over the back of the head gets pushed upward when lying on a pillow while on your back, pushing the nasal pillows forward and out of the nostrils. There are two adjustments, neither of which have a secure locking mechanism. The side straps do not provide any up and down support, and limited side to side support. In fact, the velcro came unstuck last night. Turning side to side also dislodges the nasal pillows sometimes, but not always. For me this isn't the quality sleeping device I was expecting to find."

"I am a back sleeper that was looking to try the nose pillows. I know it referred in one of the reviews to sleeping position but I don’t think this one said "do not buy if you sleep on your back"."

Best yet

"This is the fourth mask I have tried. This is without a doubt the best. Very quiet, hose keeps entirely out of the way. Stays on nicely and is easy to put on. Can sleep on back and sides without any problems. Would highly recommend!"
