The mrs persevered going through a number of different type masks.. ordered them in from the states that saved 50%...

She gets heaps better sleep now but its still a bit of a pain. ..

If this thing works they'll be cheap and 100% better than the masks. .

Been using one for 4 years now ... can't sleep without out it now.
Took 3 weeks to get used to it..... but the difference was unbelievable.

This method is the same as the nose delivery masks with tubes .... but neither will work unless your mouth stays closed ......

so if like me that's what happens when you fall asleep you will need a chinstrap any way. That's why I use a nose & mouth mask.

Furthermore these have no humidifier to prevent dry mouth/throat.

It will no doubt be a much better concept ..... but one size will not fit all .... just like now it will only suit some.

my mrs used to get up in the mornings and was like she was up all night without sleeping...

I would say to her that she couldn't possibly be tyred as she was snoring all night..

but snoring keeps waking you up, slightly, and you never get into a "deep" sleep which is what you really need...

she only uses a nasal mask so this thing would be perfect.. nor does she use the humidifier part of the machine..
