Just Started Using Resmed 10 Airsense Because of Recall.

I never used Philips but ResMed Airsense 10 from the beginning. I thought it would be very uncomfortable, but found that I can sleep with it without any problem. I think this brand is more popular here in Canada. My setting for air is 12 with initial ramp.from 6. My humidifier setting is 7 at home with room temperature around 22°C (71°F). I find the humidifier setting needs adjustment depending on ambient temperature; it needs to be lowered if the temperature is lower (e.g., while camping). Otherwise water condenses in the tubing and the air gurgles waking me up. My hose is not heated. Also do not fill water to the brim.
It is important to adjust the straps at the beginning of each night, if leak is noticeable it will disturb my sleep. I use full mask F20 - with the partial one I couldn't even breathe, it choked me!

Hello @tomek, Welcome to Connect. I switched from the Dreamstation Go to the ResMed AirMini which I really like. i had to by a hose adapter but it works great. I stopped using a humidifier a year ago because I slept better without it and could breath easier. I also have tried a lot of different masks but the only one that gives me consistency is the ResMed F20 full face mask. I did find that a cloth comfort cover (https://cpapcomfortcover.com/fits-airfit-and-airtouch-f20-full-face-mask/) has helped me a lot with some of the CPAP nose issues. I do have some leakage but I've found that have a little leakage is not that big of a deal for me. I also adjust the straps most nights like you mention.
