Does anyone use all the sizes that come in their package: small medium and large?

I feel like when I try them on, any one of them might work. I get a decent seal on all three.

Does anyone successfully use the other sizes that are not what they were fitted for?

I can "get by" with the largest that comes in a package when I get the package with XS as the smallest and the Medium is the largest.
The large is not comfortable for me at all but the Medium I could use if I had to.
I routinely alternated between Small and XSmall though with any of the nasal pillow masks I have ever tried.
I traded the Medium because it was my last choice and I would likely never use it as it was the less optimal of the 3 that I would get in the "for Her" packages and no sense in it going to waste when there are lots of people who prefer the medium. Mediums have always been a hot commodity.

Now with my most recent nasal pillow mask the Tap Pap...I tried the small one night and it just didn't seal no matter how I tried to position it. I don't think it is ever going to work for me but one of these days I will give it a go again just to make sure.
I can easily use the large though. The Medium in it is my preference.
My personal thoughts...the Tap Pap nasal pillows run on the small side but it could be the fact that they don't have the rather large barrel where the rim is like the other nasal pillow masks. So the design itself is not comparable..they are more like the nasal pillows that come in the Hybrid type of masks.

Okay, I have decided on which pillows to trade with my Wisp.. I am using the large size and can in a pinch use the small/medium sooooo I will trade the petite to you if you have a large for me. For now I will keep the small/medium just in case I change my "other"mind
So I have a petite to trade for a large, the petite has never even come out of the fit pack so still brand spanking new.

I have a new Medium cushion for the F&P Forma FF mask. It's free just PM me, all I ask is postage. I guess nobody wants it so it went in the trash can.

@melvin8

I sent you a PM not long ago. Have you read it? If I don't hear from you by COB on Tuesday, I'll just consider this a closed deal.

Thank you.
Starlette

I have a large and a small cushion for the Swift FX and I will trade either for the medium. Never removed from the packaging, as I knew from eyeballing them (and an old original Swift) that I would be a medium.
