[split] F&P Brevida
I'm thinking about trialing the Brevida. Now that some of you have been using this mask for 3 months can you share any updated opinions/experiences? Do you experience any CO2 regurgitation with this mask?

The Brevida has a higher leak rate than most other masks I tried. I don't believe CO2 will be a problem.

Listing as Average and 95%
Brevida: 3.20 / 2.40
Resmed P10: 1.20 / 0.00
F&P Simplus: 1.47/ 0.00
RE: [split] F&P Brevida
For my use the Brevida has a lower leak rate than the P10. You can see my last nights results in another thread here titled "My first two weeks and my thoughts on....", but last night for example my leak rate was 0.000% and a 95% leak rate of 2.4 with no large leaks. Since using it (only two weeks so you do need to take that into account), my leak rate has not exceeded 0.08% on any night, and is often much much less.
If you look at the construction, it is easy to see why this would be so - the pillow covers the whole end of your nose and really seals well.
