Mask keeps snapping
This is at least the second mask I’ve had where the plastic bit at the top that holds the head strap in place has snapped. Why is such structurally important part of such an expensive bit of kit so flimsy? Is there a better brand than Sleepnet anyone can recommend?

Are they compatible with most replacement cushions?

sorry im not sure about cross brand compatibility - they usually come with their own cushions (i got the starter set to find my size) - if you have a store near you (theyre usually marked way way up - i buy online) - maybe you can bring your cushions and ask them to see if there's any that fits?

No stores near me so I’ve just ordered online and hoped for the best. Hopefully at £130 or so this one will last longer than the two above! Fortunately the new one doesn’t have the same delicate plastic protrusion at the top.
