I was skeptical, but this is life-changing.
I have had a miserable time adjusting to the CPAP-life. I've tried nose-masks, mouth masks, face masks, nose-pillow masks. In the past year, I have tried eleven different masks. Some worked better than others, but they were all terrible. For the masks to fit properly, the straps have to be tight, which is uncomfortable and can hurt. To keep the masks from leaking, I often have to mash my face into the pillow at an angle. No matter what, my mouth and eyes are always dried out. I wake up, feeling like I have allergies, gasping for water to quench a dry throat, and usually with a mild headache. If I can get four hours of continuous sleep without yanking the mask off, I consider it a success. On top of all this, I can't wear glasses with the masks on, it's difficult to use devices (ipad, computer, etc) with them on, and they always feel so confining and heavy.I was extremely skeptical about this product. It may work wonders for some people, but there's no way it's going to work for *me*.However, it did. Immediately.I shaved my face, used one of the cleaning pads to wipe the area around my nose, stuck the ports on my nostrils (while laying on my side, in bed, without a mirror, without having ever tried this before) with no problem, connected the ports (I think I was supposed to do that first?), adjusted the ports so they stopped leaking air, and --- that was it!Next thing I know, I'm waking up from having so quickly fallen asleep for *seven straight hours*! I didn't feel restricted, confined, sore, dry, sick, dizzy, have a headache. Nothing. It was so fantastic. The nostril tape came off easily and painlessly (even though it stuck perfectly and comfortably all night) and while wearing it, I could put my glasses on, do nearly anything I wanted, and had no straps, air leaks, loud noises, or *anything else* to contend with.My only complaints whatsoever are:1) The connection of the interface to the nostril ports isn't awesome. HOWEVER, the new version is finally launching late next week (middle of December 2022) and it replaces the connecting system with little magnets -- so you can just pull the connection apart, reconnect it, pull it apart, reconnect it... with zero difficulty. (The new product is called the 'Eclipse').2) It takes some effort getting used to the different feel of the mask -- especially when you're not laying completely on your back. It feels different and awkward to have a few ounces of equipment attached to and dangling from your nose and pulling downward on it. It doesn't hurt. It's just a little unsettling, at first. After a few nights, you'll start to realize that the weight isn't going to make it disconnect or pull the tape off your face. It'll be fine!3) The price is a little steep. The interface has to be replaced every (I think) three months. It uses a pair of ports (I think the new version calls them 'Halos'?) every night -- and those come out to like a buck or more.I forgive the price, because this is a rough business to be in and this is a small company that doesn't yet have the effective power of an enormous corporation buying a kajillion manufactured units at a time. The innovation and the relief it brings is worth the price, though. If you've suffered the typical problems of a CPAP user, you know that there have been many nights where you said you would "give anything" to make it better.The first morning I woke up after using this and having a nice long uninterrupted sleep, I -- a grown middle aged man -- literally cried some tears of joy and relief. It came out of nowhere and surprised me, but for the only time in my life I had a *product* impact me so much that it actually made me tear up.Finally, the founder and head of Sleep Bleep (Stuart) is incredibly responsive. I can't imagine he can continue to be so available once the product really hits the stratosphere and takes a big chunk of the mask market, but for now, he has been a delight. I had concerns, so emailed him before buying. He gave me some guidance and even told me that we could set up a Zoom call if I wound up having any trouble and he would happily walk me through any issues. He even responded quickly after the purchase, when I was just reaching out to let him know what I thought of the product and asked for an update on availability of the new version.When I say that he was responsive, I mean he replied to both my communications both times *within two minutes*. In the middle of the night. On the weekend.I rarely gush about a product and evangelize about one even less, but everyone who is unhappy with their current solutions absolutely needs to try this. It might not be the right thing for *everyone*, but it is certainly worth the investment to give it a try. If it does work for you, it is going to make you dread bed time and the CPAP machine so much less.This is what actual innovation looks like. I mean, this guy tackled a problem that hundreds of millions of dollars worth of R&D from multi-billion dollar medical equipment companies has never solved and he initially started it by slapping together a prototype from parts he sourced at a hardware store. It's such a great story and I hope it's just the start of the story.I really love this product. I really encourage you to try it. Go into it thinking "this probably won't work for me, because nothing does!' -- but understand that it very well might and if it does, you're going to be freaking out just like I have been.Take care of yourselves, fellow apnea sufferers. I wish you well!

tubing works with RESMED Airsense 11, but....
I have a RESMED Airsense 11 and the Bleep tubing does work with it. The tubing just fits into the existing tubing using a little plastic piece. Keep in mind that with the Airsense 11, the tube is always coming out of the top of your head. This system makes the tube come off your nose...a whole different setup. I sleep in the "prayer" position with my hands under the side of my face and I got tangled in the hose quite a bit.While the tubing fits, it's a short piece of tubing and no where near worth the price they are charging for it....especially as tubing has to be changed out periodically. I cannot see myself continuing to use this system for a few reasons, and cost is a LARGE factor.My second issue is those nose pieces. I want to love this system, it makes so much more sense to me then what I've been using, but I can't get them to work. I have read the directions, watched the video's, etc. and I don't see where I'm doing anything wrong but I simply cannot get a tight seal that lasts.My problem appears to be the width of my septum, lol. When I put the first port on, the adhesive around it is so wide it not only covers my septum, but protrudes over the other nostril. Then when I try to put the second port on, instead of sticking to skin, it's sticking to the first port and won't make a tight seal.In my pictures I'm trying to show you how they overlap.I originally tried the 10 and 2 position they tell you to use and it just wasn't working. So then I looked at the adhesive surrounding the ports, tried to find the narrowest part, and tried to align them so that the least amount of adhesive went over my septum but it still caused the same issue.I bought the witch hazel wipes they suggest and tried wiping the top of the adhesive on the first one so that the second one would stick to it but there's always this tiny gap where air gets out.I've never been told I had an unusually small nose, lol, so I'm not sure if it's that or something I'm doing wrong. Problem is that every night I try again, I end up wasting a set of ports. I wasted half of these constantly trying to get them to seal and then gave up.At $1 a night for the ports, and over $50 for a new hose every time, coupled with my inability to get a tight seal over my septum, I'm not a fan.
