I'ved use a few. Pillows on small strap. Kept moving even with 6 hair clips with lots of air leaks. What I like is I'm 78 and have DISH which has taken out my left shoulder. With these clips I can deal with just right til in place where I can use my left too. First my old had an extended hose peice, but I lay on my back and hose keeper falling off bed. This hose swivels and can go behind my neck. Stays in place. My night mask goes under nose bridge piece, ear plugs,and mouth taped shut digally so water straw can be used. I'm go to go as long as I don't have to "go"😮
I'm going to try this tonight and I hope it works I've tried thousands of face masks so I'm not really sure about this one with all that head gear but I'm going to give it a whirl
I’m going to try tonight. Hope it works out my pressure setting is 15. Once it reaches 15 it blows. Many leaks. This will be by 4th mask. Any suggest high air settings?
I've been using ResMed Aptiva LT nasal mask but it's firm silicon cushion material must press too hard above my upper lip, for good seal, irritating tissue inside my mouth. Does the ESON 2 have softer material in that area, not requiring as tight straps? I miss the old soft gel cushions that didn't need as tight straps. Any other recommendations that address this issue?
I have this mask, it was disappointing. I have the med and large cups and they both leak badly for me no matter how tight/loose I get it. The dreamwisp however is practically leak free for me.
My man says 10 cm is a significant setting... meanwhile I sleep with EPAP of 19 and IPAP of 22. I would love to see leak tests for masks using higher settings. Unfortunately Evora Full farts on my face and I can't tighten it more so I'm looking into nasal masks. For some reason I can't breathe properly with pillows and have higher AHI.
It is a quiet mask with the diffuser. The main problem I have is that I cannot wear my eyeglasses if I am trying to read before I fall asleep. Any suggestions?
You may want to consider a cradle style mask in that case. The Evora is really nice. Below is a link to help you see those options. cpapmyway.com/blog/best-nasal-cradle-cpap-masks
Did you mean cough? If so I do not think that is a normal issue, but you might increase humidity to see if it maybe dried you out enough to irritate you maybe.
I just got this and what I wonder is: do I exhale by opening my mouth? I don’t have trouble breathing in through my nose and keeping my mouth closed. But it’s, getting rid of the air that is difficult for me!
You have to breath through nose only on this one. If you are having difficulty not exhaling from your mouth, then you may want to try a full face. Link below to options. Full Face CPAP Masks: cpapmyway.com/store/cpap-masks/full-face-masks
If I open my mouth at all it fills up with air, makes me fill like I am suffocating. I try to keep my mouth closed but if I have to open it at all the air rushes in!
Mine leaks, blows across my eyes. I was hoping this would have helped me. If it's loose, it leaks. So i strap it tight so it mashes into my face, and it leaks. It leaks no matter what i do. Pos.

Good Luck!
This is best mask I have used. I am a side sleeper and have no trouble with leaks or shifting. Plus it is so quiet and no air blowing out is a plus.
Thanks for the input. Glad that you are doing well!.
thank you for this - my very first cpap mask and I could not figure out how the hell to get the thing set up - all good now!
You're very welcome!

Please let us know how it goes. Thanks for watching and good Luck!

A traditional Nasal or full face are usually the best options. Let us know how the eson 2 works.

We are considering bringing on a gel mask. I will put up a video if/when we do.

Thanks for the input. DreamWisp is a great mask.

I understand. We might consider that on other demos.

I have small lens reading glasses from dollar tree. I put them on first the middle bar goes over them.
one thing I noticed just after my first night - woke up with a bit of a couch? is that a side effect of a CPAP mask?
Did you mean cough? If so I do not think that is a normal issue, but you might increase humidity to see if it maybe dried you out enough to irritate you maybe.
How do you put on the head gear and put on the and strap the top of the head gear?
Practicing in the mirror is a great way to learn.
Love this mask. Silence!!!!!!!!!!!👌🏻
Nice! Thanks for watching.
saw this mask that you wife used on the demo. However, she show a full mask. Can you provide link to purchase the full mask with this head gear?
Yes here is the link to the Eson 2 CPAP mask

The full face is called the vitera

How do you clean it
Light soap and water once per week.
How do you replace the diffuser filter??
It just snaps on and off.
Can you show slowly how to do the clips
We can certainly add that to the To Do list of videos. Thanks for the input.
What if the head gear is heard to straighten out on the top of the head
I think that just takes time and practice.
If I open my mouth at all it fills up with air, makes me fill like I am suffocating. I try to keep my mouth closed but if I have to open it at all the air rushes in!
Sorry to hear that. Might want to checkout these mouth strips to help keep the mouth closed. Link below

A small strip of scotch tape ican leave small place at edge of mouth for straw. Much simpler than chin guard.
Mine leaks, blows across my eyes. I was hoping this would have helped me. If it's loose, it leaks. So i strap it tight so it mashes into my face, and it leaks. It leaks no matter what i do. Pos.
It is not right for everyone. Thanks for the input.
If the deal blows into your eyes then what. I think the tech got my cushion to large it is to lose at the top of my nose. Because it blows in my eyes.
Yes. You may want to try a smaller cushion. Or a different style mask.
