F&P Vitera Full Face CPAP Mask with Headgear

The mask fits pretty well. The seal is a bit too soft so the mask slides up a bit. Paired with the head gear on the back being irritating because of having short hair. Otherwise it is a pretty decent mask. Being a mouth breather I need the full mask but the other options are not any better.

Very well designed and very comfortable

Received the product and able to swap out and use this new set. I like this set I’ve had it before and got a new set since my old one has finally broke down. Has lasted a very long time. Good craftsmanship.

Velcro failed in two months Repaired using small tie wraps Face pad comes off at odd times If I need to take it off during nightthe straps come unhooked and becomes a project if no light.

It's a good mask. Light and easy to wear. Try it.

Every time that I moved my head the velcro would become unattached.

This mask did not work for me but I absolutely love Direct Home Medical!! Great prices and the fact that u can try the mask and return if it's not good for you is incredible!! Thanks guys for your services!

I know some people are saying to wear this mask tight; but I haven't found that. I think if you wear it tight it presses too much on the face. I wear it a bit loose and always adjust when I'm on my back. Works well.

Works very well . I like it

I liked the soft feel of the mask cushion. The headgear was comfortable and well-made. I could smoosh my face sideways into my soft pillow without pain or pressure from the mask. The hooks that clipped to the mask were a bit weird but worked fine. I put a strip of velcro on the top of my headgear and strapped my airhose up to the top of my head when I laid down, to make it easier to turn over in the night. That worked well. Problems: You can't wear glasses with this mask. I used the medium mask one night and it made the bridge of my nose sore. I changed to the large mask and it let air blow up into my eyes occasionally during the night, and my nose still got sore, as if the mask were sliding downward to rest on my nose during my sleep. I HATED the air vent. It's located right in front of your nose and blows a lot and is noisy. But at least it does seem to blow straight out, not upwards. Why can't mask makers put the vents down low by the mouth area and use teeny holes that won't blast and won't be noisy? Anyway, if you're looking for a full-face mask that lets you sleep on your side, this is worth a try. My favorite mask at this time is the hybrid ResMed AirFit F30, with a bit of extra-wide pipe cleaner wound around inside the air vent, to deflect and quiet the air noise. Good luck out there, CPAP users!

Very happy I switched to this mask. I find it very comfortable to sleep with, easy to put on and off.

Worst purchase I ever made. The headgear has already fallen apart I have to duck tape it to keep it on the mask I am very disappointed this is totally totally unacceptable

Head gear needs to be very tight otherwise this mask is extremely noisy Not what I expected from F&P

Exactly as described and offered

The headline says it all. I love the Simplus, but this feels lighter on the face, it fits very well, the cushion is soft. Nice job Fisher Paykel.

I don't usually write reviews; but I read the headgear one so I had to chime in. All CPAP mask headgear should be replaced every 2-3 months because fabric that you wear on your head every night eventually stretches out and loses it's elasticity. This headgear is very comfortable for the first few months and then it needs to be replaced. If you don't replace it then you'll start over tightening your mask and that causes discomfort and leaks. Trust me I know... years and years dealing with masks! Also you should replace your cushion every month or two as well. Remember this is on your head and face every night, or at least it should be. Vitera is pretty good. I have used the Simplus forever and I switched over with no problems and I like the lighter feel of Vitera.

This is the worst headgear F&P ever made. Mine fell apart in just a few months. The velcro came off in two places. I won't buy this headgear again.

I was looking for a more traditional mask than the very minimal full face ones. This is good, it's pretty slim fitting without a lot of bulky frame; but there is still a frame there to support you unlike some of the "soft frame" masks. I like the cushion and the venting. Header is very soft too. (I use with a SleepStyle machine at home and a Transcend when I travel... which I hope to be able to do again soon.)

I've been using Simplus for a long time and my dr recently switched me to Vitera. It works with my machine and I actually like the fit better too. I still have the Simplus as a backup so when I wash Vitera I use it for a night.

F&P has taken a proven design, Simplus, and improved on its sealing ability by extending the compression range of the silicon seals. This allows for greater mask movement before leakage will occur. The headgear is of a lighter design than its predecessor and is very comfortable. The main fault I have found with the mask assembly is directed at it hook and loop connectors on the headgear, mainly the lower straps. After 6 months of use (right out of warranty), the hook material separates from it laminated base that serves as the attaching point to the headgear. The lamination separation ultimately occurred to both sides of the headgear, each on a different night. Having a mask suddenly pop off while asleep does provide for a rude awakening. In order to use the mask, I had stitched the first side together but trashed it after the second side delaminated. With my Simplus lasting for over 6 years this was very disappointing. While I love the mask, replacing the headgear every 6 months and its associated cost has forced me to move on to other masks.
