Using resmed f20 small right now…

Using resmed f20 small right now…
Using resmed f20 small right now, works fine for me the only thing is when I side sleep it often leaks when pillow pushes it a little out of position...

What mask you would recommend I try. Prefer full face (being mouth breather), that would fit me well (given f20 fitting pretty good) but wouldn't have this problem if leak when I side Sleep?

Juan,

Your print is REALLY small on your post.  Hard for these old eyes.

I use the AirTOUCH F20.  Same as what you are using, but it has soft cushions instead of just plastic.  By using the "Mask Fit" function on my AirSense 11, I can get a snug fit before going to sleep and thus preventing most leaks.

The F40 covers your mouth and has holes for your nose.  The profile is much less obtrusive than the F20 and there are no hard plastic parts to push with the pillow.  That may also be an option.

Sorry about the small fonts - i copy and pasted didn't realize it was small...

i called the supplier, they recommended me to try one of these options (based on my face scanning):
 - Evora Full Face
 - Rio II Full Face
 - DreamWear Full Face

do you have experience with one of these? Priority is a good seal, especially when side sleeping

Juan,

Granted I am a very new user to CPAP (only been using mine for a couple of months now), but me and my wife have only used the ResMed brand masks currently.  She uses the nasal pillows and nasal cover masks, and I use the full-face masks.  I will leave it up to others that have experience with those masks in your list to answer.

Good Luck!
