RE: new Resmed ff mask
Considered giving it a shot, but at $170, I'll pass.
The Amaraview has the same problem that I have with all FFM... when my chin drops (even wearing a collar) I get leaks around my chin.
I'll stick with the P10
RE: new Resmed ff mask
OK after taking an afternoon nap. Here's my take on the F30. If you do well already with an Amara View and want an upgrade on the headgear and a quiet vent than the Remed F30 is your mask. If you had problems with getting a seal with the Amara View than chances are you'll have the same problems with the F30. It's a 5 point adjustment trying to get the mask just right. I had problems with the Amara View with side sleeping and the same goes for the Resmed F30. YMMV.
Back to the Air Touch I go.
RE: new Resmed ff mask
Thanks, Walla. I’ll have to pass. I have the same problem with FFM you and CB91710 have. I had high hopes for F30.

Thanks for the info Walla Walla. I rate my overall user experience on the Amara View at 80% successful, compared to my AirFit F20, I'm still up to giving the F30 a try. If nothing else but to get a smaller overall mask that still seals consistently. So I'll add this one to the wish list, as well as getting the N20.

RE: new Resmed ff mask
This one is going straight to the mask bone pile. I’m a 5’2” person with a pug nose. No way this medium ffm fits my nose. Imagine a face like PBS’s “Poldark” would be a perfect fit. Pretty sure the small size would be the same problem but the fitting guide that comes with the mask doesn’t address nose length, only nose width.
