Hi everyone, i hope you enjoy my little video on the AirTouch N20 by ResMed. Thanks For watching

The ResMed #AirTouch N20 is very similar to the AirFit N20 but it has a new Ultrasoft memory foam cushion that is super soft on the nose and provides and incredible seal as it mould perfectly to the contours of each individuals face.
It comes in 3 sizes
Small / Medium / Large
There is a 'for her version' that comes with a lavender colour strap but it only comes in size small cushion.
The mask is interchangeable with the N20 infinity silicone seal so you can mix and match your seals as you please.
The mask has 4 components and is easy to assemble and take apart for cleaning. I do feel they could have made it a little easier to take off the cushion but it's only a small negative.
The Airtouch is perfect for those who have sensitive skin and suffer from red marks and sore noses. It has a nice clear line of sight and is very secure with 4 points of adjustment.
The frame has is soft on the cheeks and has a nice padded feel to the fabric.
The big downside is the Airtouch N20 seal should be replaced every month which will add an extra cost to your cpap therapy. There's minimal cleaning required with this mask cushion, simply wipe it down with a mask wipe each morning to keep it fresh.

I have been on cpap for 20 years and the memory foam sounds like such a relief to what i have used in the past. My positive for this year is that my Kidney transplant is still going strong thanks to my wonderful husband who donated to me in 2012
There's no better gift than a kidney! You're very lucky and glad to hear it's all going smoothly for you :). Cheers
God bless your husband what a brave man he surely loves you
One of the nicest thing to happen this year is finding your channel which helped me to really get the most from my Airsense 10 Resmed. Thank you so much and keep on the good work.
That's so nice. Made my day! Best wishes to you and your family. Nick
Thank you! I found this very helpful. One wonderful, positive life event: a week-long gathering at my home in Ontario, of three of my children and four grandchildren from BC, FL and NL.
Glad to hear it. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas from mine here in Melbourne
Soooo good great news. I love Canada. I live in Australia 🇨🇦🇦🇺
This is a great mask. Love the recommendation. Congrats on reaching 100 comments! I have to say that I have been on CPAP for years. I wish I had access to this kind of content 10 years ago...lol
Thanks Alexander. Glad you are enjoying the N20. Have a great day brother. Nick
Love the way you talk about cost. Thank god l live in Australia. Thanks for your help
Hi Christine, thanks for your comment. Have a nice day. I'm glad i live in Australia too!
I have been on cpap for 20 years and the memory foam sounds like such a relief to what i have used in the past. My positive for this year is that my Kidney transplant is still going strong thanks to my wonderful husband who donated to me in 2012. Glenda Harris
That's great to hear Glenda. Hopefully it keeps going great for many years to come :-). No better gift than a kidney. All the best. Nick
Hello Nick
I got my new AirTouch n20 and did a test fit/nap with it today. I had 0 leak for 1.5 hours on my first try. Looking forward to tonight!
G'day Steve, nice one mate, hope it's working well for you. Nick
Luv the “no BS” tips and advice. Always get a good tip or two each video; when looking around for the next machine. 😀. 👍🏻
G'day John, haha cheer mate! Appreciate that :)
I have been a Cpap user now for 6 months. Your advice has been invaluable. Using my resmed machine and mask has been very easy thanks to you.
Just seeing this RUclips video even tho I’m a long time subscriber and SLEEP HQ user. I just tried this mask starting Dec 31 last year. Even tho the supplier made me buy enough cushion parts for regular scheduled replacements I only used one for 3 months. It was fine. I only changed my cushion part today because I felt like it was getting dirty despite regular wiping. I found that the seal does fit a little better now. So I’d say 3 months is good.
Yay so good to find things about cpap that I was not told 4 years ago when I started !
Glad to help :). Have a great day
My Swift FX has apparently been discontinued so I needed to go a new direction. My therapist suggested the AirFit N20. I watched this video and all the positive comments were enough to influence my decision. Thanks for the great review! I should receive my new mask in a week to 10 days and I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl. My good news is tomorrow we have the Christmas Boat Parade in the bayou and it's a time of joy and community togetherness that our entire town looks forward to each year. Merry Christmas everyone!!!
Finding out that I have had some my whole life... realizing it has caused health problems that can now be alleviated with breathing. Blessed.
Hi Nick, thanks for the info. I’ve been using the Airtouch N20 for about a year. I’ve also been using the same one. I clean it with wipes and use a blow dryer on the memory foam on cool air and it plumps it back up. However, after a few nights of sleep therapy you will notice that your hypopneas raise a little. Maybe by 1 to 1.5 so then just
pull your Velcro straps ever so slightly , tighten them up and your seal is once again good for another couple of months.
I love resmed, but they have to make money obviously. Follow your own instincts , only you know what works for you with your CPAP therapy.
Having said all of the above , I make sure I wash my tubing and change my filters weekly. I wash my tubing, mask and water chamber with Dawn Washing liquid soap, rinse and dry afterwards, then you have a wonderful fragrance when you start your therapy for a Great nights sleep!!
Now, I would like to thank Nick once again for the informative tuition , demonstrations and informed opinions on his RUclips videos.
Keep up the Great Work Nick. I’M A FAN MATE!!
Wow. Thanks for that great tip for prolonging life of memory foam cushion.
They told my wife definitely no Dawn only baby shampoo but they told her the SO CLEAN MACHINE WAS POSION and I have been using it for over twenty years to clean my machine
My wife and I appreciate your knowledge and your candor. Long time subscribers. We have learned so much from you.! At a result of this specific video, she is getting her replacement mask as the identical covered in it, e.g., RedMed AirTouch N20. Thank you very much.
Really enjoy your videos. Nobody seems to provide as much detail. I just got an Air Touch N20 and have been sleeping much better. I was not told I would have to replace the cushion roughly every month and not told how to clean foam. Thank you.
Bob from Canada
Thanks so much Nick! Your explained several things about the AirTouch N20 that my provider did not mention. Such as:
- how to most easily remove and reassemble the cushion from the headgear... I was struggling with that. Fiddly is a great way to describe it.
- the availability of wipes to clean the cushion.... much better for the foam than my previous system for which I used soap & water.
- your pacing of the video... perfect.
- your assessment of the N20 AirTouch... honest and to the point.
Memory Foam sounds great! I hope there is one that will go over my nose and mouth. Your videos are terrific. Thank you!
Hi Stephanie :-). Thanks for the kind words. There's one called the AirTouch F20. Check it out! Best wishes Nick
Thank you for the info. Used my nasal mask for the first time last night. Glad to know removing that cushion was hard. Thought it was me!
Have just started with cpap and one week into a trial. Finding it challenging! Hoping to learn more from your channel. Tough year but one positive is spending more time at home with my gorgeous son 💞
Hi Marg, you're certainly not alone! The first few weeks are always the hardest so just do your best and keep at it and eventually it does get easier and more enjoyable :-). Glad you're enjoying time with your boy. I always say that Family is everything. Take care
Nick
I'm new to using cpap and was issued nasal pillows. After viewing your video, I am so encouraged to see there is a better mask. I called the ResMed supplier and asked for this mask. It looks so much more comfortable and I love how you can snap off the hose without taking the whole mask off to use the bathroom. Thank you for this video!
I was diagnosed last December, and then with the virus 2020 appeared lousy. CPAP treatment, however, resulted very promising. And then, discovering your videos was the cherry on the pie. We in Mexico have a very limited supply of CPAP accessories, buy your videos have helped me a lot to take advantage of the few we have available. I´m feeling much better, 2020 has been more enjoyable.
Hi there, thanks for the kind words. Glad the videos have been of use :-). I was in Mexico in 2009 and had a great time with some friends. Best wishes
Thanks for an excellent review. I was told by my pulmonary doctor to search for a foam mask and give them the info to see if they can get it for me. I have a horrible allergic reaction to silicone, even while wearing liners. I am going to see if I can get approved for this mask! I am a 100% US Army disabled veteran and the VA hospital tries their best to get the right equipment for us. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
Thank you for sharing! I started C-PAP two days ago and woke today with horrible red rash, eczema, and eyes swollen shut because of reacting to silicone. I am super sensitive to all sorts of chemicals, but was not expecting this. My respiratory therapist had got the foam mask shipped to my home today, but no compatible headgear came with it. Hopefully I won't be bleeding by Monday from the eczema when I march into their office and demand parts. Loving my brain on oxygen.
I'm new to cpap therapy and I already love this mask!
Hi Trixie, that's great! Thanks for sharing your experience with the N20. All the best for the future. Nick
Thank you for this review! I do use the N20 silicon cushions, but will definitely try the memory foam seal as I have major problems with leaks as well as indentations on the bridge of my nose. I'm excited to try these out.
Hi Kare, your welcome. Thanks for watching and best wishes for the future. Nick
I just started using the Air touch N 20 mask for a couple of nights. Both the memory foam and the infinity seal work well. A little shocked about replacing the memory foam every month or 2. We'll see how it wears and go from there. I like the fit is simple and effective. learned a few things about this mask from your channel. Thanks.
Great to hear it Richard. Thanks for sharing your experience. Nick
Get my mask tomorrow and was very concerned - this video has really helped
We are lucky to have family and friends who love and support us
Thanks for doing the video. It is good to see real unbiased review of the different products
Appreciate that Arthur. Most welcome :)
Order the new mask today after watching your video.
Hi Floyd, let me know how you find it. Cheers
Memory foam sounds awesome, im in the process of researching a new mask. The one I'm using ( not Resmed) leaves a lot to be desired. My positive for the year is Hubby got a new job after 2 & a half months unemployed , only downside is its in WA & Im in NSW. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Because of COVID we haven't seen each other since May
Hi Elizabeth, that's very bitter sweet isn't it but i guess we just have to roll with the punches and make sacrifices this year so best of luck to you both. Have a good one. Nick
Hi Nick, as a kid that grew up in Australia in the 80's, you remind me of a young Molly Meldrum (in a good way 😁). Just waiting for you to say " do yourself a favour".
Seriously, thank you for your honest reviews and information. Currently doing a cpap trial. Your channel has been awesome. All the best 👍
Hi Andrew, haha cheers mate. I occasionally get Matt Damon but first time for Molly :-). Glad you're enjoying the channel! Good luck with your trial and let me know if you need any advice or info when it comes to purchase time. All the best
This mask would be perfect if Resmed would put a noise dampening filter on the ventilation part. Fisher and Paykel use filters that really work but I like the style and fit of Resmed better
Hey mate, thanks for your great feedback and insights. I think that most new release ResMed masks will now feature a diffuser. They've started upgrading a lot of their old designs to incorporate that feature - ruclips.net/video/rl8xv0d0wco/видео.html
Great advice Nick, so happy you are giving us Resmed users such good videos
Since being diagnosed with sleep app and been on the machine it’s made a big difference in my life, yet trying to seal it better is a different story your video has been most informative and will try some different ways of fitting the mask
Like the idea of the memory foam! Very informative. I'm new to CPAP and taking all this in...
Cheers, glad you enjoyed the video and welcome to our cpap community :-)
Enjoying your videos. Didn't know ResMed came out with this new version of this mask. Keep up the good work. Stay safe and healthy!
Thanks Tom, you too!
Enjoy your reviews on new products. 2020 has positively encouraged self determination in various aspects of living; family appreciation, coping with isolation better, take opportunities now.
Hi Joseph, appreciate that. I definitely agree with the family appreciation! I have 5 brothers which i haven't seen in 4 months and i really miss them. Family is everything. Have a great day. Nick
Hello Nick
Thank you for the resmed clinical settings tutorial.
You're welcome buddy. Cheers
I really enjoyed this video. Nick explained everything perfectly. I was having trouble disassembling the memory cushion section and his explanation made it easy. Also I wasn't sure about how to clean the memory foam section, but now I know. Thank you so much. Cheers!
G'day Kevin, glad you found it useful. Have a great day ;-)
This sounds like a product that I may try when I buy my next mask. Keep up the great videos. Cheers
G'day Shane, certainly a mask that gets great reviews and you can always switch to the infinity silicon seal if you don't like the memory foam. Have a good one and thanks for the kind words.
Nick
Thanks for your informative and entertaining reviews and instruction. I have used the silicone N20 for years without complaint. I was surprised to get new foam masks sent with one of my resupply orders. I thought the mask felt really comfortable but the foam is so thick, it actually blocked my nostrils, making it impossible to breathe! I had to toss them in the trash, all new & unused in their cases but one, since I could not return them. I later read one has so go up a size in order to not have the foam block one's nostrils. The mask seems like a good idea, but with the thick foam right up against nostrils, it was impossible for me to breathe and in spite of playing with adjustments, the mask always ended up blocking my breathing.
Thanks, Anna. Yours is the precise comment I was hoping to find! I came back to this video after purchasing the N20 Airtouch, because I also found that I could not breathe with the N20 Airtouch Medium size. For me, it was my first time using the N20 mask, so I purchased both Airtouch and Airfit style cushions - both medium - so I could try both. The Airfit (silicone) fit just fine, but the Airtouch (foam) did not allow me to breath freely. For this reason, I think that the size guide must be misleading, or else the Airtouch cushion design needs to be fixed. Again, thank you for sharing your experience.
@@frankbruce7580 Thanks!
Sounds like a great improvement. Look forward to trying it out. Thank you for your very informative video.
Cheers buddy. appreciate that :)
Thanks for the up beat attitude and comprehensive tutorial
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers
I thought that Nick did a great video, very comprehensive. I would love to try the N20. It looks like it might work better for me than what I presently use.
Sign me up.
Thanks Diane. Appreciate that :)
I'm brandnew at this diagnosis. This video helped me to decide on which mask to try and how to care for it. Very helpful
I am so grateful that you are so honest in your reviews. I was thinking this was put in by just the company but you are honest about possible flaws. Thank you.
Always enjoy watching your videos I learn something every time Thank you!
Thanks Michelle, really appreciate that. Thanks for watching :)
thank you Nick my kids have bought me this mask for Christmas 2021 so hopefully it will help on the days when I can't handle the pillows due to sensory processing or sinus issues.
Cheers Alicia! What a great pressie haha. All the best. Nicko
Great description and review. I have an appointment next week with my sleep specialist, so this information will help tremendously.
This resmed n20 air looks so good. Ive had 2 masks in 6years. Last night my frame came off nasal part as my seal has come lose. I can not clip the frame back in. I have been doing so good on cpap thearapy this year and able to have energy to chase my pug now 🙏🏼❤❤
Thanks again for another thoughtful review. My nasal pillow just isn't cutting it for me anymore. This sounds like a good mask to upgrade to.
Hi there, glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and yes certainly one to put on the shopping list. Let me know how you find it :)
Awesome instructions, insights on how to put on, clean, and use this mask. I tried it out one night about
+\- 7 months ago, it felt a little “overbearing,” e.g., too bulky. I didn’t give it a long enough trial. Love the quick release if have to use the restroom. Watched your video and now going to try again as ALL of the masks without memory foam have seriously irritated my facial skin. Will let you know....
Thanks Thomas, let me know how you go. Nick
so great to know about the hypoallergenic qualities of this mask....have had issues with redness and have used tape to kind of combat that. Will definitely have to try this mask. Thanks for doing such a great job. You definitely have the best site for CPAP needs.
This is worth checking out!
Do your doctors make a big deal of learning your machine and making adjustments? In the US they people seem afraid to do anything without doctors approval. I am thankful for you guys sharing so we can control our own therapy and be safe. Thank you!
G'day Steve, It's a very interesting point you raise. You have to remember that if you take control and learn about your own therapy and how it works then the doctor doesn't get paid. In all honesty, for 95% of cases there's really no need for A. Sleep Testing or B. A Doctor / Physician. It's very very simple therapy and a person should in my view be able to just hire one for a few months and see if it improves their quality of life? Simple! At the end of the day the therapy just improves your breathing and sleep. They want you to think it's very complex, so you don't bother to learn for yourself and then they can keep you coming back for more appointments. ResMed in Australia will now post you out a hire cpap without any medical documentation. And why not! Good on them. Cheers
This is so true! I was given a prescription for CPAP twice and because I had no guidance or direction I sold both machines! Just this year out of desperation and poor work performance, I started reading cpap blogs and looking at youtube videos to learn about the machine settings, masks, and other tips and tricks and now finally I am reaping the rewards of cpap therapy 😊. NO ONE NEEDS A DOCTOR OR EXPENSIVE SLEEP STUDY! A simple home sleep study can diagnose sleep apnea! and if u already know you have it based on reports from your spouse or wake up feeling unrefreshed daily then u dont even need a study! You can just buy a machine from an online retailer and they will get u a prescription and/or send you a home sleep study kit! (Cant use insurance but u can make payments). From there just watch videos/blogs/user feedback like this and learn the settings and mask that works for you! It takes a while to get it right but what do you have to lose? The US healthcare industry is evil, insidious, and predatory!! So thankful for this guy and his videos!
Thanks Nick!! Your videos help so much. All THEY did was show me how to turn on the machine and put on mask!!
Thanks for the video on the memory foam cushions. I really wanted to learn about them. I cant wait to try them.
Everything I learned on these machines has been from you mate
After being evacuated with bushfires (thank God our house was OK), then covid coming along and us staying home so much more, we've finally had time to get some much needed renovations finished.
Hi Sonia, glad to hear it! It's certainly been one of those years but a great chance to do some work around the house. Have a great weekend. Nick
Thanks Nick, needed that. Reg.
Hope this helps me. This is my third try for a new mask
I’m so glad I found you. You have been so helpful. I would love to try the memory foam nose piece!! Thank you again!
Thanks for the video it was Very helpful and informative
This year I've started making it a point to be more thankful and thanking people with specific details. I've found that bumper sticker acknowledgements do have true meaning.
I have the AirSense 10 auto. Thank you
Cheers Steve, i'v done a 3 part series on the AirSense 10. Here's part 3 which has the pressure change settings included in the video. Have a great day mate
Steve, I love my AirSense 10.
Great review! In regards to a positive thing, It is always great getting deeper sleep and vivid dreams.
Use a small paint pallet knife to pop out mask from frame. Works great.
I have used both the old and new N20s. While slightly more comfortable I do not find the foam ones worth the higher price and briefer life of maximum seal. In fact, the introduction of the new ones has had the very welcome effect of reducing the price of the silicon ones! I have to wonder whether these are marketed to women or newscasters. I couldn't care less if I wake up with creases on my face. The *only* reason I would use them is if they dramatically increase my mask leakage. I have not monitored closely enough to know. I agree the with your assessment of the finickiness of changing them. I am always concerned that I will break them. My RRT (Canada) says the schedule of replacement is exaggerated.
BTW, are *you* an RRT? I don't see your qualifications listed on RUclips
videos. I certainly learn a lot from your videos. Yours are among my
favourites.
Love your reviews, have learned so much keep up the good work.
Thanks brother. glad you like them
Sounds promising. I have skin sensitivity around my nose and lots of issues with the seal.
It's extremely soft on the face. Really lovely to touch :)
CPAP Reviews I looked on the website and cannot see them to buy one
Same here. I’ve found the ResMed wipes (think they contain Aloe Vera?) are enough to cause a skin reaction. Especially if I don’t rinse with fresh water afterwards! This seal sound promising but you have to use the wipes to clean them, so I’ll likely have the same problem regardless?
I had a hard time pull off the cushion, had to use a butter knife! Other than that I like this mask, I’m new to cpap. My supplier said they would sent me 6 every 3 months along with the head gear.
The memory foam is an excellent tough
Thanks for the great feedback. Yeah it's certainly a wonderful material. Cheers
Very nice explanation of this cpap mask. Thank You.
That was a wonderful review as always excellent. One good thing that happen to me around thanksgiving was I received a call from one of my first cousin, I haven’t heard from in 55 years. It was such a surprise an a pleasure to hear from him. Also my bother who I haven’t seen in 5 years came to visit and he did tell me he was coming. He showed up at my daughter house and called me and said guess where I am, my daughter lives around the corner.
That was shock. And to top it off I had two visitors that came to see and my mom. My Mom is 87 and I am 69 years old. I can honestly say it’s was a good end of the year surprise.
Sincerely
Linda

Looks great and good to know that they're always improving. Just started using my cpap after a few years due to uncomfortable masks. Hopefully will be heading off in my M/ H soon when borders reopen.
Thanks Pam! I can't wait to head off in the caravan also :)
Thank you so much for doing these videos. They help so much!
I've tried this foam version for the last 3 nights and not exactly loving it. Remed myAir says there is leakage compared to the regular version and it tends to get hot on the face. I'll give it a few more tries with some adjustments to the headgear and see where I stand on this version. A positive comment is that I love my new Resmed Autoset 10 and using it every night, coming from an older RemStar it's leaps and bounds superior. Keep up this great channel!
I am learn cpap machine for this year I enjoy it
The n20 sounds like a winner.
I used a Medium N20 Silicon style for years and I just got my Resmed S11 on Nov 11, 2021. I got the new AirTouch N20 Medium. I used it for 2 hours and couldn't breath. It was too small, I had to exchange it for a large... The medium was too tight fitting on the sides of my nose. It was pushing my nostrils in... Something you may want to warn people about. Love your videos! Love from Minnesota!!!
I really need to find a new mask to replace the mirage of many years ago. Many face irritations. This might be a winner. Looking forward to trying it
I was thrilled in April this year when our Daughter, son-in-law and only grandchild managed to drive from NSW to Qld to spend a week with us we had so much fun and are now looking forward to the next visit hoping for Christmas.
Love your channel. I have tried several nasal masks and seen to fight leaks a lot. I would like to try the air touch N20.
Cheers Steve, yeah mask leaks are one of the most annoying things about cpap therapy. I do like how the memory foam adjusts to different face shapes. Very cool
Have tried silicone on 3 different mask types, all resulting in skin breakdown. Trying memory foam next!
Nice one Monica, hopefully it works well for you :-)
positive note for me: sharing positive stories from around the world. when your heart is lighter, your mind lifts too,. thank you for all the reviews you do.
VERY helpful, thanks. I'm going to try this.
Awesome! Good luck. Nicko
I use the N20, but not with the memory foam mask. I have an issue with it leaving a mark on the bridge of my nose. I would like to try the memory foam, but not sure my insurance company will approve it.
Hi Nick, long time subscriber to your RUclips channel. Love your videos! I still struggle with my masks at night. I think I may only have to use my full face mask I recently purchased during early to mid Spring only, as that's when my sinusitis is really bad and I need strong antibiotics to get over it. Thankfully, I have a wonderful GP who knows all of my 'quirks' with my Lupus/SLE. As for this mask, which I've never tried, it looks great. Very similar build to my new full face mask the way it fits behind your head. And as I have quite long hair, I can put my hair through the hole to get it out of the way! Yay! And I have a memory foam pillow, several in fact, so the cushion on this mask looks awesome. I don't think I could afford to replace them as recommended, however. As for my good news for the year, I think everyday is a good day as I'm alive and mostly well. I love that you comment on your videos and even when I purchase an item from RemSleep, you put little notes in there to help me out. That's a BIG PLUS! So just wanted to say thank you for all you do for the cpap community Nick. :)
Hi Cherie :-). I know of a lot of people who have both a nasal and a full mask as back up. They use the full mask during spring (allergies) and winter (cold and flu etc) and when they have no nasal issues they use the nasal mask for the rest of the year. I have had a few people email me since doing this video who have informed me that they last a lot longer than 1 month which is great news. I did suspect that might be the case. That being said, the silicon version is still a great cushion and gets very good reviews.
I agree with you! Sometimes we just need to be grateful we're alive so well said!
A big thanks for your business support also. Very challenging times at the moment so we really appreciate your financial support.
Have a great weekend and take care :)
I just picked up an Air Touch N20 Medium but probably should have got a large instead but overall is working great so far.
Hello Nick, I was wondering if you could recommend a product for cleaning/maintaining the cushion?
Hi Nick, I live in the states and use the Airfit but would love to try the Airtouch. Thanks for the great info.
Great video I do have the N20 silicone mask over all very happy with it love the magnet clips but i do suffer from the red marks across the bridge of my nose so would love to try this one
My positive comment! is good and bad because of corona virus my jobseeker paymemts have gone up temporarily so now i can pay off my way overdue energy bills
Glad to hear the original is doing the job :-). Thanks for your comment and best wishes for the future
Thank you mate
With the original n20 I always have a hard time with the actual seal I always get a mask leak it's so hard to control no matter how much you adjust it
G'day Sean, you're welcome. Yeah it can be a bit like that at time hey! Try lowering your pressure a little to see if that helps. Sometimes a 1-2 cm drop can be just enough to improve the seal. Just keep an eye on your AHI levels after to make sure they don't go through the roof. You'll probably find they don't. Cheers brother
@@CPAPReviews thanks again mate for the wonderful tips cheers brother stay safe
Thank you for demoing that. I think I wil try that one since I have such terrible leaks from the 8 different masks that I have tried. Most of them leak to my eyes and dries them out. I have been trying to find the right one of the last 5 months but still sticking to it. I am now using the Dreamware nose cushion and Rez Med pads and tht seems to be the best one so far.
Hi Art, cheers for the feedback. Best wishes for finding a mask that seals well :-). If you can't find one then perhaps look at getting those eye protector masks that people wear in Airplanes ;-). All the best and thanks for your comment
@@CPAPReviews I use an eye mask every night and I still get leaks
I think that was an awesome video m8 keep it up . Cheers 🍻 Roger in Nz.
Thanks Roger!
I don't know if Nick has covered how to keep your cpap hose in place. I have a bulldog clip that is zip tied to the hose and another zip tie is used to move it to the right place on hose and the blanket on my chest. I'm a back sleeper and that hose doesn't move all night. if you have this problem give it a try...
Hi Nick, do I have to change the N20 nose silicon seal after 6 months even if the mask isn’t leaking and is still comfortable?
BTW for easily taking off and putting on my AirFit mask, I just release one magnet side.
Hi Mate, if it's not leaking and still comfortable then you can keep using it as long as it's doing its job. Cheers mate
Liked your presentation very clear. I had problems with my old nasal mask causing irritation of my skin on the bridge of my nose (F&P Eson 2 Nasal Mask, Size Large).
My Healthcare Provider wrote a RX for me to the Resmed Airtouch N20 Pillow Nasal Mask. My first night of use last week was rocky & difficult with a lot of air escaping from the elbow air escape valve!!
I am not sure this is the right mask for me?
My husband says that recovering from Covid has been positive! I am thankful for a roof over our heads, food in our bellies, a warm bed to sleep in , and exceptional healthcare coverage that pays for most of our medical needs. And I pray for whoever reads this that they will be blessed with the same!
Monthly 🤨?? Crazy, I've had my Mirage Micro for 10 years, and have never replaced the cushion or the f/head pad either 😳 but that being said, I've had no issue with leaks and apart from looking a bit old, still seems to work as good as it did on day dot.
Have just been looking for spares for it, and seems it's getting a bit old in the tooth now, so am thinking I'll go with the Airfit N20, and I'll not be replacing a cushion every month 😂😂😂😂 and with the lifespan I've gotten out of the Micro cushion...I'll stick with the silicone one. I watched your review and thought it looks the goods 😁😁😁😁
10 Years!!!! Wow. Probably a new world record i think. I have heard people actually get 2-3 months and even longer out of the memory foam ones but the silicone is still pretty good. That said i would highly recommend changing your cushion at least once a year haha. All the best
Thank you well done 👍
