ResMed AirTouch N20 Nasal CPAP Mask

I believe I’ve finally found the mask that will work for me. The N20 is my fifth and hopefully final mask. I have the memory foam option and no discomfort or skin irritation.
Thank you Respshop for being so supportive and accommodating when I was trying to get this mask just before you closed on a Friday afternoon. I will use your business down the road for future cpap needs.

Is it just me or does it feel like everything is memory foam these days? Pillows, chair cushions, mattresses. And now CPAP nasal cushions. I digress, but really the main selling point of this N20 is the memory foam cushion. Like many CPAP users, I had troubles with uncomfortable cushions in the past that would leave lines or sit funny on my nose. Memory foam seemed like the perfect solution so that’s why I ended up paying for this mask.

Honestly, it’s really, really good so far. The N20 is by far the favorite one I’ve ever used. The memory foam cushion is every bit as good as it sounds. Perfectly countours to my nose, stops all leaks, and doesn’t leave harsh red lines or imprints. The only thing is I’m not entirely sure how/if you can clean the cushion. On the old silicon ones, I would just wipe it down with a damp towel but I imagine that would mess with the composition of the foam. Also I’m not sure how the foam will hold up over time, it still has its elasticity a few months in but I can’t speak to longer term consistency.

The mask is also just pretty comfortable overall, I like the lack of a nose bridge thing. Those always bothered me and messed with my central vision. Harness is good and light, a nice breathable material. No problems with adjustment and Velcro strap decay isn’t really an issue since there’s the magnetic clips. All in all, I really like this mask. The memory foam absolutely lives up to expectations and otherwise it’s a fundamentally sound mask.

I bought this mask back in March and I have had an overall good experience with it. My sleep reports almost always show that I have no leaks. I sleep on my side and it is extremely comfortable. In fact I think this is one of the best masks if you sleep on your side. I havent found a mask more comfortable than this (but I'm still looking for any masks even more comfortable in the future).
I read somewhere that the N20 doesn't need regular cleaning but I've been wiping it down every morning just to be safe. I think this amount of cleaning is a good balance of sanitary and time saving.
My favorite part about this mask is its magnetic tips/clips. Resmed did a good job with designing this mask so it is easy to use. They make it very easy for me to take off and put on my mask which I appreciate a lot. Even when I use the bathroom at night I can slip my mask off very quickly.
One thing that's bothered me is that this mask leaves marks on my face in the morning. I read in the description that the memory foam leaves minimal marks but it's about the same as other masks I've tried in the past. I hope one day technology will improve enough so there's no more marks left on my face in the morning.

It is comfortable enough. I ordered a large because of other reviews but should have ordered the medium which was what the sizer recommended, but don't squeeze your nose into the sizer just go for a loose fit kind of like loose fit jeans vs skinny jeans. The head gear is sound and stable but if you have a wide face it may be tight for you. All in all it is a decent set up, I keep both the N20 and F20 available depending on my needs at the time. Also, I use a Bipap so the air force is robust and the mask works well with it.

Very excited by this mask and I’m in love! I’ve been waiting for a nasal version of the Airtouch since I love the memory foam on the nose cushion. With the Airtouch, comfort really takes priority (not at the expense of other aspects though).

Right off the bat, the nose cushion is amazing. The actual interface with the face is made of really soft memory foam. I can’t begin to describe how much nicer it feels and it feels like it fits better to the form of my face. Sleep report doesn’t indicate any leaking problems so rest assured there.

The headgear itself is good, I don’t have much to say on it as it just does its job without fuss. Cradles around the back of your head and it has four straps so adjustment should be easy enough. Material feels soft too. I like the magnetic clasps which makes it easy to take off in the mornings. They feel strong so I haven’t really worried about them coming undone if I move while asleep.
Tube elbow has a quick release clasp which makes it easy to disconnect if you need to get up during the night. I’m not really someone who gets up a lot but some times I want to get a drink of water while I’m reading in bed, so just disconnecting the elbow works for me.

In summary, this mask is fantastic. Really comfortable and I don’t think I can go back to regular silicon cushions. If you want to get away from those kind of cushions and try something new, I would highly recommend this mask.
