About a year ago I tried a few other masks. F&P Evora Full. ResMed N30i, and P30i. The last two....i modified the head gear. The Philips Respironics Dreamwear has a better strap behind-the-head. It's lower, and that suits me better. I've bought them a few times from amazon in Canada. They were about 30 Cdn$.
The first time I tried the N30i I put it on when I was 1/2 asleep. Middle of the night after getting up, I came back to bed. I didn't adjust it. Just put it on. My AHI was 43! That was my score when I was first diagnosed many years ago. I laughed at myself. It was a Free Sleep Study! (Earlier that night I had used my Evora Full full face mask, put on over my Knightsbridge Dual Band cap. Took it all off on the way to my washroom. I was so tired, I put the N30i on. It had arrived that day.)
Yes. In my hands that night the N30i leaked so badly, I might as well have not used my machine!
I've been able to wear it since. I find the P30i hurts my nostrils. I can wear it too, but don't like the experience.
