ResMed Swift FX Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask

Sometimes you just want a light, simple mask that works without fuss. That is exactly what the SwiftFX does. When I was shopping for a mask, I wanted one that would feel lightweight and keep my LOS clear, so I could keep doing all the nightly activities I usually do. The Swift looked like it would be exactly that, and after three months usage, I am comfortable giving it my full recommendation.

Like I mentioned, the headgear was a big component for me since I didn’t want a million straps going all across my head. The Swift uses just straps, one in back and one on top. Both have ample adjustment and are lightweight, so I can get a consistently comfortable fit. The silicon doesn’t bother me at all since it comes with soft wraps to put over them, which I did right away.

Nasal pillow is excellent too, it fits well and holds a good seal. Haven’t leaked in these three months and I don’t wake up with nasal irritation. The package comes with all three sizes which is a must for me, since I like to try out as many possibilities as I can.

No complaints to speak of. It’s a very well-priced mask and I have no plans to switch masks ever again.

Have had this mask for a month now, like it. It’s really simple but works well. The entire headgear is two straps, one around the top and one around the back of your head. Fits well for me, it’s easy enough to adjust. Not sure how well it’ll fit for people with different hairstyles, but I have a pretty standard cut and no issues with the frame slipping. Also it’s really light since it’s so minimal, so it’s easy enough for me to just forget about it.

I like the pillow too. It came with the small, medium, and large ones which are all the sizing options. I ended up using large but anyone else will have the luxury of picking the size they like. It’s comfortable and fits pretty well. I don’t totally forget that it’s there but it’s definitely not enough of a presence to affect my sleep. Leaked the first night but then I played with the fit of the mask and now it’s perfect.

Fantastico! I love this mask!! I have struggled for years with CPAP compliance. As recently as last year, against every instinct in my being, I did something I swore I would never do: I gave up. I *quit* using my CPAP (as it turned out for 8 months) after 10 years of erratic use! On my annual visit to my sleep doc, a physician's assistant at Duke, I told her that this was for me, like the infamous General Custer, my "last stand." It was also going to be my last visit......*unless* I could get a mask that actually let me sleep without leaking or being grossly uncomfortable. I told her with every bit of honesty and candor that I had that I would throw that "blankety blank" machine into the river if I didn't find the next mask workable. She smiled, offered encouragement, and had me try this mask. It has changed my life! I am now a consistent CPAP user and devotee of this mask! Kudos to the inventor(s)/marketers and thank you! Life is good again!

I started using this mask, but somehow the nose gets sore in the morning, don't know what to do. I asked your customer service and they ran down the list for me to check:

Correct pillow size?
The cone tip is the only part that is inside your nose, and the rest stays outside.
Headgear too tight?
No humidification?
And they suggested I could use Ayr Saline Nasal Gel (can get it from Walgreens or any drugstores that has it) or lanolin cream - Lanisoh, Blistex Lip or Carmex Lip ointment to help reduce the soreness.

If all of the above failed, they suggested to consult your doctor or try a different mask, like a nasal or full face mask.
So I tried a different pillow size, and it works for me. Thanks guys. I gave 5 stars because your customer service rocks!

The softest nasal pillows I've ever had among my other nasal pillows masks. This Swift Fx mask is my number one choice. It is light in weight, it allows you read or watch TV with little obstruction, and it comes in three different sizes that you can try all on to see which is the best fit for you. My doctor said I needed size large, but I feel more comfy with size medium. It is good that the mask comes with three pillow sizes so you can try them all instead of using one of those sizing gauge templates, sometimes I don't really know if it works though; you need to try on the real thing. I could have tried this one earlier on then I wouldn't have so many nasal masks lying around. But I finally found the right one!

I have used a CPCP at 16cm pressure since 1991 and have not been a big fan of the Resmed products until now. The Swift FX is light, easy to clean and doesn't have uncomfortable buckles like previous models. I used a Willow headgear for many years but it has been discontinued. This product is comparable and I am very happy to have found it. The only thing I do not like is the hose is loose rather than attached and a restless sleeper can become tangled. I recommend this product, especially if you are or were a Willow user.

This thing is garbage. If you sleep on your back and are completely still it will probably work. If you sleep on your side don't even consider it. It constantly leaks if you are on your side and is very noisy when it leaks. You will be pissed off from waking up constantly through the night. The fit is very inconsistent. It's like you have to constantly adjust the strapping. The pillows wear out really fast too. The seal is good for only about 7 days. Then you'll be blowing in the wind.

At first it seemed to work well, but after just a couple of nights I started having problems with it sealing on my right nostril, it kept leaking. I tried several adjustments, until it was just to tight and you wake up with marks on your cheeks. To bad as I really liked the design. So I am doing back to the Resmed Mirage Swift II. The real problem in all this is that you cannot return if you remove the unit from the plastic. And you can't try it without actually using it.

Having been a CPAP user since 1992, I have tried several types of CPAP masks from full face masks to several types of nasal masks to several types of nasal pillow masks. In my opinion and based on my experience using different types of CPAP masks, the Swift FX Nasal Pillow Mask has been one of the best. It is light, easy to adjust, and has provided me with one of the best quality of sleep. Highly recommend this even to new CPAP users.

It's easy to get used to and stays on good, but it has made the inside of my nose raw. My Dr. just told me this morning that I most likely have it on too tight. If this does not work, I won't be able to wear this anymore as it's just too painful.

Hi Clay, If the pillow does not work we can send you the cushion that will go over the nose. That's what we love about this mask!
