this mask is by far my favorite but I've only been on cpap for 90 days so far.. in this time ive tried in this order.. dreamwear undernose mask, airfit f20, airfit f30i and airfit f30. the f30i is a great concept but i find that it has one to many annoyances for my liking. the head gear with air rushing through is kind of annoying when you want to lay on your side and seems to cause leaks. the swivel on the head blows air against my pillow which is very annoying to me. the f30 is perfect. i thought that having the tube resting over my shoulder would be an issue but i honestly dont feel it.. the only issue i have is that i wish the head gear came in a large. it fits but i would feel better with a little more length on the straps. besides that, this mask is awesome and i think you would love it. edit: i think a big issue with any mask is too much pressure coming from the machine. i highly recommend talking to your doctor to get your max pressure down as low as you can. i argued some points with my doctor as to why my max pressure has to be at 15 when my average is around 10-11 and he lowered it to 11 for me. this helps when you get a slight leak.. the machine can top out trying to compensate for the airleaks but is actually causing a bigger leak at that point. maybe i am wrong in thinking this but ever since ive gotten my pressure lowered, ive been enjoying the machine more. as long as your ahi low, you'll be fine. ive always been around 1 or lower. hope this helps yall!

How's this with higher pressures and a full beard. I did hear you mention it sealed pretty well with your beard.

Patrick, gave it a run on low pressure and it seemed fine. I got an email from a bearded gent recently saying it sealed well too. 14 day money back on it, so if it is no good, you have some back up at least. May be a good question to ask in our CPAP Support group on Facebook... facebook.com/groups/2217875275197228/

@@SleepRightAustralia Thanks for answering. Perhaps I can get some more feedback in the group, as well.

Great mask but it was leaving lines on my face so I got the pads to put on it .I don't think they made pads for it.Does any one know? I used the one I had from another mask

[@SleepRightAustralia]

Brian, sorry, what do you mean by pads?

[@silaslongshot941]

So, this works pretty well with a beard does it?

[@SleepRightAustralia]

Silas Longshot it can.
