Simplus Full Face CPAP Mask by Fisher & Paykel
Designed by Fisher & Paykel, the Simplus Full Face mask is engineered to deliver long-lasting comfort and a superior seal. The Simplus features three key elements – the RollFit Seal, the ErgoForm Headgear, and the Easy Frame – which work together to give you a more comfortable night's sleep. The RollFit Seal reduces pressure on the nose, the ErgoForm Headgear improves stability and breathability, and the Easy Frame provides a durable base to hold the mask together. These innovations make the Simplus an exceptionally comfortable full-face mask.
RollFit Seal
A one-piece seal that rolls along the bridge of the nose, the RollFit Seal automatically adjusts to movement, which reduces pressure on the nose and face. The mask cushion is comfortable and effective, minimizing leaks during CPAP use.
ErgoForm Headgear
The Fisher & Paykel Simplus headgear is constructed with two different panels – a stretchable panel and a non-stretchable one – to help support the mask and head. The breathable ErgoForm Headgear allows for maximum up-down and side-to-side head movement without sacrificing the seal. An adjustable strap on top of the crown adds even more stability for optimal performance.
Advanced Air Diffusing Ability
Created with comfort in mind, the air diffuser on the Fisher & Paykel Simplus CPAP Mask reduces noise and draft, allowing for a peaceful night's rest for you and your partner. If you dread using your CPAP because of how loud and disruptive it is, we suggest you give the Simplus a try. You'll be surprised at how much quieter therapy can be with a well-designed mask.
Easy Frame
The durable, low-profile Easy Frame provides stability and an open field of vision which helps reduce feelings of claustrophobia. The frame is one-size-fits-all and comes with an easy clip attachment for easy disassembly and assembly before and after cleaning.

Reviewer’s Tips
All CPAP equipment, whether it's your machine, your mask, or your humidifier, needs regular maintenance. Wipes and sprays can be used to clean your mask, but your CPAP tube will need some soapy water and a hose brush for a thorough cleaning.
A tube brush helps you scrub out the inside of your CPAP tube for that deep clean. Make sure you choose the right size brush for your tube. If your brush is too big for the tube, you'll have a hard time moving it back and forth inside the tube!
If you prefer to hand wash your mask along with your CPAP tubing, we recommend using mild detergents, such as baby shampoo. Remember to let your mask and tubing air dry away from direct sunlight. You can hang up your CPAP tubing to speed up the drying process.
How to Put On the Simplus Mask
- Hold the cushion over your nose and mouth with one hand. The bottom of the cushion should rest just below the lower lip, in the cleft midway between the lower lip and chin.
- While holding the cushion over your face, pull the headgear over your head with the other hand.
- Keep one hand on the cushion to hold it in place while you fasten one of the clips to the frame. Repeat with the other clip.
- Adjust your fit by tightening or loosening the velcro straps, starting at the crown and working down to the bottom of the headgear.

The Simplus is a very comfortable full-face mask. The cushion is a soft, smooth silicone with a welcoming feel when put on your face. The RollFit design of the cushion will not allow you to over tighten the headgear which prevents the mask from putting too much pressure on the bridge of the nose.
The headgear is soft for comfort but durable for long-term use and cleaning. The height adjustment on top of the head allows for the cushion to be pulled up or down as required for the perfect position.
The Simplus is also a very quiet full-face mask that gives the sound-sensitive user or bed partner a good night’s sleep. The ball-and-socket style elbow keeps the hose from tugging down on the mask, preventing possible leaks.
This mask is available in a fit pack, as well, eliminating any insecurities about ordering the correct size. My clients report that the Simplus made the hunt for a comfortable full-face mask so easy.

The seal on this mask is definitely very good. It is very stiff and sturdy so the seal keeps very well throughout the night. I would also rate its comfort very high. I think a lot of full face masks aren't very comfortable but this one was definitely better than most.
The only improvement I want to see about the mask is how it's a bit difficult to assemble my mask over and over again especially because it's very easy to fall apart. Whenever I get up temporarily like for using the restroom, my mask feels like it's too fragile to stay together. I wish F&P designed this mask so it's less easy for it to fall apart. It starts getting inconvenient after a while to keep on having to readjust my mask after I take it off for a little bit.
All in all, this is a pretty decent mask if you're looking for a comfortable full face mask. For its cost, I think it's a great value.
This Simplus mask is Simply a plus (get it?). Terrible dad jokes aside, what I said was true. It really is a great mask for all the right reasons and I recommend it without hesitation.
The design is straightforward. It doesn’t revolutionize anything but it does the fundamentals well. The headgear cradles my head well and it has all the standard strap adjustment options. There’s a strap across the top with a goggle-style adjustment mechanism, which I could see pressing down on some people’s heads. My hair is sufficient cushion however, so I have no issues. The cheek straps clip onto the nose cushion too, which is sufficient for taking it off with ease. Finally, there’s a diffuser panel on the cushion which helps quiet down the air exhaust sounds. Should help if you have a partner whose a light-sleeper.
Nose cushion is great, it has the Rollfit mechanism which means the cushion adapts with the contours of your face and shifts itself to stay on optimally. This feels nice as it stays on during the entire night and prevents leakage. I’d highly recommend always getting the fit pack, since it all three cushion sizes so you can get the best fit for you. Tube connector at the front of the mask has a swivel socket so it’ll rotate as your hose is repositioned. This means you get a little more control over where your hose lays, helping keep it from sitting on your body.
All in all, a great mask. It does everything right without fuss. Fits well, feels good, doesn’t have leakage issues. What more could you want?
The simplus is a good mask, used it for a few years now and it’s held up quite well (although I did have to purchase a replacement recently since I accidentally crushed the bridge bar). It’s a pretty simple, straightforward mask that does everything you ask of a mask. A little on the heavy side and the harness/strap system is fairly thorough, so some people might want to opt into something that’s lighter/has fewer straps.
As mentioned, the harness is fine and it holds onto my head very well. No problem adjusting it and it’s held up well, the straps didn’t lose much elasticity. Try to avoid using the Velcro straps a lot though, those never hold up on any mask. I use the quick release clips instead when I can.
The best part of the mask is the standout cushion. The mask almost “rolls”� on your face in that the silicon seal part is very pliable. This is a good thing as it means when I shift, the seal forms and holds very well. It feels pretty comfortable too, the material is sufficiently soft. Have had zero leakage issues in the few years I used this mask. The performance and feel of the mask is great overall and I see no reason to switch masks. For the foreseeable future I will continue buying and recommending the simplus.

I genuinely think F&P is the best mask brand out there. I've tried countless Resmed and Respironics masks because they're the "biggest" brands for CPAP but I've struggled with so many leaks, discomfort, and bad durability masks that I knew I had to try other brands. F&P doesn't disappoint. Their masks are very durable and comfortable and I like the Simplus mask a lot. I travel a lot for business so I am glad to have found this lightweight mask perfect to bring with my travel CPAP.
The headgear of this mask is definitely my favorite feature. It's easily adjustable/cleanable and easy to fold up and store it. For traveling, it's easy to carry around. The mask is also easy to take apart quickly which makes it easier for me to clean. This mask works very well as a travel mask.
However, just as a word of advice: I'm an average sized guy and the "small" option fit me best, so I would recommend making sure what your measurements are before ordering a mask. I was surprised about my mask size. I think these masks run on the large size, so I recommend sizing down even if you want an "oversized" mask for yourself.

Respshop really has gone above and beyond too help me, I am a seasoned CPAP user and my old unit recently burn up, Ashley Macey hooked me up with a MD that helped me immediately get a new prescription and gave me a GREAT deal on a new Airsense 10 unit! I had gone round and round with my medical insurance company for over a month, Ashley had me an appointment in 3 days and even shipped my CPAP the same day! I work for a large electrical manufacturer that follows the same sales creed, Great service, great people! I highly recommend this company! Regards, Terry Chastain
Thank you so much for the wonderful review Terry! We will be happy to share your kind words with Ashley, please feel free to also leave us a google review as well!
I Have received the mask but was somewhat annoyed as when I placed the order I received a email saying order not completed, I then did again and instead of PayPal paid with American Express.
Next thing I find that payment from PayPal was made but also money from my American Express card was taken, hence I paid twice and received 2 masks.
I Ordered medium but really should have gotten small so sadly I have 2 not very good fitting masks.
Overal I am happy with the product just didn't need two and postage to expensive to exchange one of them for smaller size.
I bought this mask because I wanted to try something different from the norm(turns out everybody does this) I had purchased the Icon Auto CPAP and enjoyed the dual cpap-humidifier combo that it came in so I decided to buy the F&P mask to along with machine(thinking nobody else did this) I believe it was a great choice at first and I love this company dearly but the mask was only good for the first 2-3 weeks. Thereafter the mask started to breakdown on me. The quality of this mask does not match up well to the machine.
Kind of a heavy mask compared to others that I have used in the past, but the seal is very good and the cushion is fairly comfortable.
More important than anything else with me is that the seal works, because I have had masks with bad seals, and my therapy has not been good, wake up tired, sluggish during the day. I will deal with the bulkiness of the mask because of the seal!
I would say I have enjoyed this mask for 3 months now . Headband Velcro straps stay tight. Just seems always adjusting to minimize leaks . Headband is ok . Sometimes leaks when lay on side and yawn . Would rate 3.5 and if all I could afford I would purchase it again . Upgrading to Quattro so keep you posted
The silicone is unable to provide an effective seal & air is escaping under the silicone from both sides on my nose just under the bridge.
I am sorry this mask did not work for you. Luckily we do have a mask assurance policy so be sure to contact us directly so we can get this resolved.
