Thats sounds like you are making progress. Another tip to soften the use of pillows and greatly reduce leaks is the vcom and also use of a larger hose. If you want to stick with factory hose you can use an oxyclimateline or you can use standard non heated or a hybernite heated 22mm. I recommend the last for Resmed users and then you can install vcom at the machine end of your hose which I have proved to myself is better.

By the way how did you attach the Nova micro headgear to the Brevida mask?

Just had one of my daughters sew the Brevida clasps onto the headgear.
It has a bit of elasticity in the gear, so it keeps snug without needing to adjust much at all. The two pieces at the back also have a better spread, and so stay put. It self tensions a bit like the solo, but without the solo's over tightening issue. It has been great. The Brevida headgear could be a pain sometimes, and I found you had to have your tension just right.
