ResMed AirFit N30 Nasal Cradle Mask
Seeking a simple and comfortable CPAP experience? Look no further than the ResMed AirFit N30 — the world’s first nasal cradle mask with a front tube connection.
Made specifically for active sleepers and those who struggle with claustrophobia, the AirFit N30 offers optimal comfort and freedom of movement.
N30 users can barely feel the weight of the mask. Designed with only three parts, the AirFit N30 is as lightweight as a pair of pencils. This minimalist design prioritizes simplicity without sacrificing an effective seal.
With the AirFit N30, you can get the right fit in a snap. After slipping on the headgear over your head, simply adjust the side clip to change its length and split the elastic straps to get a more comfortable fit.

We were all tremendously excited to see the new ResMed N30 Cradle CPAP mask because the ResMed P10 Mask has been so popular. Unfortunately, not everyone can tolerate nasal pillows, so welcome aboard AirFit N30 – we are so glad to see you!
I took this mask home the night we got it in stock; I was anxious to see how it performed. I love the minimalist design and the non-obstructed view of this CPAP mask since I like to read in bed. The Cradle Cushion does a great job of sealing without leaking, and it is very gentle to the nostrils.
The headgear on this mask is adjustable, and the strap is split into two, so you have the option for top-of-the-head support if you need that. The other thing I really enjoyed was the exhalation port which dissipates the airflow so neither you nor your partner feels any air blowing out of the mask.
We really like this mask, and we think you will, too!
Daily cleaning: cushion
- Disassemble the mask.
- Soak all parts in warm water with mild soap for up to ten minutes.
- Gently scrub the mask parts with a soft bristle brush, paying special attention to the vent.
- Rinse each part thoroughly under running water, shaking off excess water from the vent.
- Let the parts air dry away from direct sunlight.
The silicone cushion, however, may need to be replaced more frequently, typically every 2 to 3 months. Silicone naturally softens over time, which can affect its ability to create a good seal.
- Gently pull the mask away from your face and then release it, allowing the cushion seal to inflate and settle comfortably under your nose.
- Make sure to clean both your mask cushion and your face, as facial oils can interfere with the seal.
- Ensure you're wearing your AirFit N30 mask according to the fitting instructions in the user guide. The way you put on the mask significantly impacts the seal.
- Adjust your headgear as necessary.
- Try a larger or smaller cushion size.
- Replace any worn out mask parts.
If your CPAP mask still leaks after following all those troubleshooting steps, a different mask style may be a better option. Feel free to contact RespShop for assistance in choosing a different mask.

When I sleep it’s fine but after 3-4 hours it starts leaking which makes me restless
Have enjoyed the fit of my new mask. Greatly appreciated!
Love this mask. Securely cradles the nostrils. No leaks.
I have used several types of masks over the years and this is my favorite!
Doesn’t irritate the skin like a lot of the other masks for me and die at go into your nostrils. I can’t wear those. They tickle my nose! Also lightweight and doesn’t get all tangled in my hair or make my nose all sweaty. Stays in place and works well with the travel Res med Cpap as well! Used it while traveling and I loved it!
After much trial and error I am happy with my masks.
I like the new mask so far . It's light weight and very comfortable. It surprising how well it stays sealed, considering it just sits under my nostrils. Glad I bought it.
Heard good things about resmed masks and I was looking for a new nasal mask, so I gave this a try. Very happy with it so far. Fits well and my sleep hasn't had any disruptions. The cushion is comfortable and the strap is lightweight.
I’ve been using AirFit masks forever now and I’ve never had any issues with them. I was looking for a new lightweight mask that I could take on trips, something with a more simplistic frame. That’s how I ended up finding the N30 which looked light the perfect package for what I wanted. Normally I’ve used a full face mask but the N30 seemed so light that I decided to give it a try.
As mentioned, the frame is very barebones and lightweight. It’s basically one strap going around the head and the material is very light. You only need to adjust it at one point which makes it easy to get the sizing done as well. It reminds me of a swim goggle in a way, but much more comfortable since it uses a nice fabric.
This was my first nasal cushion so I was a little hesitant coming from a full face mask. But after using it on a few trips now, I’ve become very used to it and it performs excellently. The air flow is strong and comfortable, and I haven’t had any issues with leaking. It’s also soft and doesn’t leave any marks on my face. I’ve started using this mask full time as my primary mask and it’s doubtful if I’ll ever go back to full face. This just another excellent entry in AirFit’s lineup and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to a wide variety of users.
The usual easy ordering and prompt delivery, but the N30 mask impresses me even more than the usual great service from RespShop.
I have tried nearly all of the more recent ResMed masks. The headgear for the N30 is an improvement over the P10. The whole assembly I find to be a great improvement over the N20, which while comfortable is complicated, and the cushion rattles within the frame.
For me, the N30 provides the best of the P10 and N20. It projects air into my nose nearly as well as a pillow mask, while giving the greater comfort of a nasal mask.
The first few nights, I did have slippage issues and I was frustrated. I checked the product page and saw that RespShop posted a video about it, and they recommend moving one strap to the top of my head. After trying that, I found the fit was much better. It’s been a few weeks now and I haven’t had any issues with the mask shifting. Of course, I can’t guarantee the mask will hold well for anyone but I highly recommend people to try moving one of the straps to the top of the head. The straps themselves are feather light so I don’t even feel them at night. Keeps my eyeline clear too so I can use my laptop while in bed.
Other than that, the cushion is good. I’m never someone who really notices when masks are bad (except when they leak), but so far this one has been comfortable. Like I said, I haven’t noticed any leaks and the mask has been pretty quiet overall.
Really, I have nothing bad to say about this mask. It’s a mask that I would recommend without hesitation to any nasal mask users.
I always had a full headgear nasal setup and I didn't love it. It pulled at my hair and I hated the hose on my head. The biggest problem was the rashes and irritation I'd get from the nasal pad. This mask is very comfortable to wear, no irritation and no hair pulling. My only issue is leaks making a lot of noise coming from the nasal pad. I have a very narrow nose so I don't think this would be the case for anyone else.
So glad you found a better mask for you! Please contact our Respiratory Therapists at 1-866-936-3754 for some suggestions on the leak, they will have some ideas on how to help.
