CPAP's are all about the mask. Machine is super important as well and all I recommend is getting one that has the water option so you are not completely dried out in the morning. I have about 4 or 5 different masks with the noise pillows being my go to. I am a side sleeper and they seem to be the best for that. Having bad sinuses sucks but workable. I have tried the under nose ones and I like them but they can get pinched off on one side and become noisy plus the air blowing down you arm or onto your partner. The nose pillows are quiet and no ventilation air.
Cannot get use to the full face ones as they seemed to get sucked into my face every now and then as well becoming knocked askew when flopping around. For mouth breathers maybe they are better but not something I have been able to get to work for me.
In general I hate the CPAP machine but it is a necessity now. You know, the whole keeping me from dying kind of thing.
