Comparisons
Torn between two masks? Put them side by side.
Factual comparisons built on the manufacturers' documents, then enriched by reviews from patients who wore both.
- vsAirFit F20 vs F40Two ResMed full face masks that cover the nose and mouth. The F20 is the classic full face mask, with a cushion resting on the bridge of the nose. The F40 is a compact full face mask that sits under the nose and leaves the bridge free, with a vent declared quieter.Read the comparison
- vsAirFit F40 vs F30iTwo compact ResMed full face masks that sit under the nose. The real difference is the tube: in front of the face on the F40, on top of the head on the F30i, which matters a lot if you sleep on your side or move around.Read the comparison
- vsAirFit N30i vs DreamWearTwo under-the-nose nasal masks with the tube on top of the head: the same idea from ResMed and from Philips. The AirFit N30i is documented as magnet-free with a QuietAir vent (14 dBA declared at one meter, versus 18 for the DreamWear). The DreamWear, for its part, comes in three frame sizes and four cushion sizes.Read the comparison
- vsAirFit N20 vs N30iTwo ResMed nasal masks, for nose breathers. The N20 is the classic nasal mask, with a cushion on the bridge of the nose and magnetic clips. The N30i sits under the nose, without magnets, with the tube on top of the head.Read the comparison
- vsAirFit F20 vs AirTouch F20The same full face mask, two cushions: silicone on the AirFit F20, memory foam on the AirTouch F20. Parts are interchangeable, so the choice is mostly about how it feels on the skin and how often you replace the cushion.Read the comparison
Before comparing two models
Nasal, nasal pillows or full face?
The type of mask matters more than the brand. Here is what sets them apart, in one sentence each.
Full face
Covers the nose and mouth, resting on the bridge of the nose. The classic choice for mouth breathers.
See the 6 masksCompact full face, under the nose
Covers the mouth and sits under the nose, without touching the bridge. Lighter on the face.
See the 4 masksNasal
Covers the nose only. For nose breathers who keep their mouth closed.

Two soft tips at the entrance of the nostrils. The most discreet, for nose breathers.
