Brand X mask with Brand Y machine?

Brand X mask with Brand Y machine?
I am presently using a Respironics Dreamstation machine  with nasal pillow mask.  I am going to change to the ResMed for Her machine and am wondering if I can use the Dreamstation nasal pillow mask with the ResMed machine as I am very comfortable with this mask

Yes! Other than the special masks for certain travel machines and the travel machines, all manufacturer's masks are interchangeable with all machines.

Engineers have been wise in this matter. They have made the connector sizes compatible. So with other manufacturers. I've heard that ResMed and Philips masks are also interchangeable.
