Deluxe Headgear For CPAP Masks

The headgear I use wears out in about 6 weeks. And the straps look like ROPES. I HOPE THE MANUFACTURER READS THIS COMMENT.

best fitting head set i have yet,love it.

I have wanted to try the deluxe headgear for a while. Now that I have I will stick with it. A great price too!

There is no elastic on this particular headgear, thus no give around the mask.

The reason I use this headgear is that it does not stretch very much. This makes it easier to adjust so that the mask will seal against my face. If the headgear starches too much you have to make it tight to prevent it from floating up and leaking. Only four stars because the back of the headgear will stretch over time. I sew in additional straps to prevent that.

Changed out from the old style headgear. Been using for about a week and so far so good. Like other reviewers, I have no clue how to use the second blue velcro tab. Comfortable and easy to re-apply in the dark.

Had to replace my head strap. The newer one I found had more support for the back of my head. It is more comfortable especially when I roll around.

very light design,holds well,cool.good product.

Still getting used to this product. I have used CPAP products for many years (at least 10), and needed to replace the headgear (the webbing). I tried this new variant (same manufacturer, compatible with my current mask) because it has additional cross straps at the back of the head. I expected it to be less susceptible to shape distortion. And I believe this is correct. The surprise is that the velcro connectors at the ends of each strap are different, and no additional information about their use was included. The old straps had in each case a single longer strip of velcro to bind the strap to the connector on the mask -- or in the case of two straps, the small plastic connectors that allow the strap end to snap on to the connector on the mask. The difference is that there are in each case two (2) smaller velcro strips, arranged in series, at the ends of each strap. The straps connect by using the velcro to circle back onto the strap to enclose the mask point of connection. With this new variant, the second velcro strip is right where the loop makes its sharpest turn -- that is, right at the point of connection to the mask connector. I don't understand what function the second velcro strip should be playing. Experience has shown that all CPAP straps stretch over time, and consequently, the user must tighten the straps from time to time. It may be that eventually the straps will stretch to such an extent that the second strip of velcro will become needed to make a tight (or well stuck) attachment to the strap. And maybe at that time, the second strip of velcro will have moved (by the stretching) to the point where it no longer interferes with the connection to the mask. That's just a guess. If not that, I can't imagine what the designers had in mind. There are no pictures or text to explain. I am getting a good connection to the mask with this webbing. It is simply not as convenient to work with. I remove the webbing each morning when I clean the mask. Doing this in this manner is a lot easier for mask cleaning (than leaving the straps on) and avoids wetting and drying the straps each day.

The strap setup is terrible. Very poor design with no instructions whatever. Save yourself the ag duct tape would be a better choice.grivation.....

Over the years, my Comfort Gel masks have always come with an elastic head gear. Recently, that has changed, and the new head gear does not stretch. For me, that is a huge problem. I need that stretch to keep a good fit through the night, as I do move around when I am asleep. The only thing that would make this even better is if it were available as an option when you buy a mask. It is a bit wasteful to buy head gear with the mask that I cannot use, then pay more for one I can use. But I am glad I found this product.
