Trade Hybrid Pilllows

Post by hayeswildrick » Fri Apr 13, 2007 5:40 am

I just bought a Hybrid and I'm using the large pillows. I love the mask, but the little plastic strip between the pillows presses uncomfortably on my nose. Of course, I could do a pillow-circumcision and cut the offending piece off, but what if that makes it worse?

So, if you use the SMALL pillows, I'd be happy to trade my small for your large. That way I've got an un-cut set in reserve.

(I'd like to keep the Medium in reserve -- it's new enough that I might find that medium works better after surgery!)

You clip off the plastic attachment with little scissors. You can even use different sizes pillows with the Hybrid.

Thanks. I understand that, and that's what I'd like to do. But, only after I have an "intact" set of pillows to go back to in case it makes the mask fit worse.


Just to clarify...
WILL TRADE: 1 small pair of Hybid Pillows in exchange for 1 large pair of Hybrid pillows.

Had one person contact me via PM about trading, but she hasn't responded to my replies. The trade is still available:

I'll give you one set of small Hybrid pillows (never used) in exchange for a set of large Hybrid pillows.

Press on!
Jeff

I'll be getting my hybrid shortly and usually use Mediums (in other masks) so if you don't have any other bites, give me a week.
