RE: Cloth masks
I had tried the SleepWeaver back in 2015.   It is a nice idea that didn't work for me.  I could not get it to seal. It is the only mask I have ever returned.

RE: Cloth masks
I bought a SleepWaver ANEW (full face) cloth mask a few months ago.
It is very comfortable to wear but a couple of issues, one that I cannot get used to front tube air delivery because air hitting my mouth directly, keeps me awake all night and the other issue I have with it is that it leaks easily, unless you wear it real tight.
If you can deal with these issues and they don't bother you, then the cloth mask is the right choice.

RE: Cloth masks
Most comfortable I've ever tried, but couldn't get it to seal... leaks too much.
