Suggestions for replacment headgear - freddyfl209 - 05-03-2020 Hi I currently have been using the FX Mirage headgear, and I love it. For me, personally, IMHO, it fits and works well. Over time it has stretched, and from the attached photo you can see, I have had to fold it over itself to make it firm enough for me. [attachment=22566] SO. What other headgear, would you recommend that is the same or very similar material, and is similar or smaller in size? I've considered the Quattro Headgear. The top straps look a little to short, in some photos, and others, it looks fine. RE: Suggestions for replacment headgear - kwhenrykerr - 05-04-2020 Any reason that you do not get a new one ? RE: Suggestions for replacment headgear - dkcdkc - 05-04-2020 I replace the mask and headgear every three months... But I have noticed over the years that any headgear straps will give up their elasticity if not washed periodically. Usually a cool wash and air dry seems to put a lot of life back in my gear.

More times than not, a good soaking / washing in hot water and some Dawn dish soap will work wonders for the strap elasticity. Makes um feel like new again. They smell much better too! |
