Hello,
because of mouth leaking, I use a F20 resmed mask every day, which I am rather satisfied with.
However, it marks the face and is quite annoying at night.
That's why I would like to switch to a FFM under the nose mask.
Unfortunately, my first two serious tests, with the Dreamstation FFM and the F30 from Resmed were failures. Indeed, I spent the night watching for the next leak. Which leak is very important.
Hence my question: what experiences with the EVORA under the nose mask? How does it compare to the other two, especially in terms of leakage?
Thank you
Help! According to your experienece: does the Evora FFM seal better than the Dreamstation and the F30 masks ?

Evora is a step above the rest of FFM at least for me and I have a trim beard !! Dreamweaver, F30 didn't work as well for me. I've been using it since May 2022.

I haven't tried the Evora.
I briefly used the Resmed F30, which looks very similar to the evoraic. The F30 worked fine but as someone who only sleeps on their side, the front protruding tube connection would sometimes get in the way and jam against the pillow.
I switched to the F30i, and found I liked it quite a bit better than the F30. It not only fit my face better, but the top connecting tube is out of the way if I change sides. I have a beard and have no leaks with the F30i.

My wife and I both used the F20 for a few years. We switched to the Evora about six months ago and are very happy with it. While I never had a leakage problem with the F20, my wife did. She has had much less of a problem with the Evora.

Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.

I believe some places will give you a 30 day trial period on the mask, so you have nothing to lose by trying it.

Thank you all.
In France we don't have the "try and buy" system. Unfortunately.

I use the Evora full when I need a break from taping which I do with nasal masks. The seal is excellent and I usually get no leaks due to the stability of the frame. I do have to place a small piece of air filter over the exhalation ports to reduce the air that hits my pillow otherwise it’s a better mask for me and I’ve tried them all.
