I use a FFM mask. It's fine. I've tried the Resmed Airfit F20, and a Phillips Dreamwear, but wound up using the one my sleep study gave me because it seals around my nose better and stays on better. It's a Fisher and Paykel Simplus. The top nose piece is tad uncomfortable, but it's no big deal, I sleep better is all that matters with this mask over the other two I have.

Just to add to the people making suggestions about masks, I thought I'd chime in too. When I first got my machine, I took to it without problems. For several months, I slept so well. Then, inexplicably, I started taking my mask off in my sleep. Could not for the life of me figure out what was up. It was still worth using as I could feel a difference between going to bed with it on and not, but it was super frustrating as I continued to get more and more tired as I was only on it for like 1.5-2 hours most nights. Tried changing my sleeping positions, changing humidifier levels, tried not using the humidifier, tried adjusting my mask, all sorts of stuff. Tried changing to Auto-PAP for a while, and that improved things but wasn't enough. Eventually changed masks and also turned up the pressure, and now I wake up most mornings still wearing my mask. The thing is, my previous mask (an over the nose type) was perfectly comfortable to me, and as I said I took to it immediately. Now I've got the Dreamwear "full face" (not quite the same as the full face my dad wears with his Bi-PAP which also covers his nose, but that's what they call it). At first I was still taking it off, but then we increased pressure and I had to cinch it down more firmly to minimize the leaks I was getting, and I wake up pretty much every morning with it still on.

Point is, even if you sleep easily with it and have no comfort issues, you might still need to change up your setup. And it might be a combination of things, not just one or the other.

you can buy the cushion to interchange with the frame.

you’ll also need the full face adjustable straps to securely wear the full face cushion

only those two you’ll need! the rest is the same - whatever size your nasal cushion is now (probably small or medium) is the size full face you’ll buy. The sizing is only measuring how far your nose comes out under your nostrils length wise

yep, i bought both pieces on amazon for about $40 total. nice to have the option if needed, and keep the hose connection at the top of my head

it helps with congestion, but i didn't get a good seal with it. perhaps because of my beard. after my congestion cleared up i switched back to the nasal mask

mask (med size, but get whatever equivalent is to your nasal)
