Anyone ever use a Fisher Paykel Pilairo mask?

RE: Anyone ever use a Fisher Paykel Pilairo mask?
I have used the Pilairo Q but found over time it causes irritation/sores to the inside of each nostril with regular use, went back to my original mask the Respironics Wisp Nasal Mask and now love it. Now really wonder why I ever changed....

I use the Pilairo and I love it.

Maybe this is the beginning of a Pilairo cult.

I have tried the Pilaro Q, it's very comfortable and light weight...but.........I still reach for my P10!

If ResMed offered a P10 pillow in a size halfway between Medium and Large, I'd probably use it all the time, too. It is such a common mask that supplies like replacement pillows can be found quite cheaply.
I can't use it 2 nights in a row without a good deal of pain. That is why I went looking for alternatives. So I think it is unlikely that I will be assimilated, but stranger things have happened. Just picked up Pilairo Q #2 today from an online supplier for under $70 for the complete kit. What's not to like? Dave

Assimilation is futile

Okay so I now am the proud owner of a Pilairo Q. And...
[drum roll] I LOVE IT!!! Fits my nose perfectly. I mean, it truly feels like it was custom made for it. (So since most who love it also love the Wisp, I'm planning on getting one of those to use as a backup if the pillows on the Pilairo start bothering me at all.) But... does this mean that all of us that love the Pilairo have the same nose size? lol
