If you take a size small in one mask brand (mine is the one that covers nose and mouth) would you take a small in another brand. Since you can't take them out of the package cause you can't return it once it is opened and it does not fit kinds like guess work, do most of you wear the same size masks in different brands?

Hi Wendy,  Nope....If they have a fitting guide to download for that mask ? would be helpful. even the same company can vary from mask to mask. Good Sleep,Chris
Hi Wendy, it's a constant chore to get the right fit, without leakage, i"ve been using the FX Mirage and Mirage II nasal pillows, with the Sleepsom/Cardinal manufacturer chinstrap.
Lately, for me it's been a constant chore, to either use the new Swift Mirage FX, or my old Swift Mirage I or II, I've found the latex straps on the FX pinch my ears, on the top, it's a constant struggle to keep the chinstrap across the back of my head, and the over-lapping FX mask strap from riding up at night. But since I got the pressure up-ed to 13, even with this annoyance,  I wake after 8 hrs feeling pretty good. I don't think it's feasable to think you can sleep 6 hrs and deal with this, I know many here want nervana and sleep 6-7 hrs. I think it's possible, if you get the gear perfect, with no leaks. Hope you all attain that.

Hi Gorden Unfortunately I use a full mask so not sure about the nasal pillows.
