ResMed AirFit F30 CPAP Full Face Mask Review
With all of the CPAP full face masks available, it’s important to do your research before making a purchase. The ResMed AirFit F30 Full Face Mask is a customer favorite. Here’s why.
What is the ResMed AirFit F30 CPAP Full Face Mask?
The ResMed AirFit F30 is a redesigned full face mask that rests lower and covers less of your face. This innovation reduces red marks on the face and nose bridge that typically occur from bulkier full face masks. The under-the-nose design of the cushion helps maintain a comfortable seal throughout the night, which prevents leaks.
Key Features of the ResMed AirFit F30 CPAP Full Face Mask
- The QuietAir™ elbow minimizes airflow noise providing a more peaceful sleep for your bed partner
- The versatile headgear easily fits most users with minimal adjustment
- An UltraCompact cushion offers additional support and comfort while sleeping
- A quick release elbow feature lets you slip out of your mask quickly and easily
- The streamlined design allows for a clear field of vision for reading or watching TV in bed
Benefits of Using the AirFit F30 CPAP Full Face Mask
The Resmed AirFit F30 provides extra comfort while you sleep while also maintaining a low-noise environment for your sleeping partner. Because full face masks have a tendency to leave red marks, the AirFit F30 was designed for minimal face coverage. Less contact means fewer red marks. And the under-the-eye framing and headgear make it easier to watch TV while wearing the mask.

What are Customers Saying About AirFit F30?
“I tried the ResMed F30 after using the F20 for a couple of years. The bridge of my nose has developed a sore that wouldn’t heal and the marks on my face were drawing attention at work. The F30 has provided a month of pain free sleeping and no more fighter pilot look! The cpapshop was wonderful to deal with and I know where to go for all my supplies in the future.” – Review by Stenhammer, 9/30/19
“I'm somewhat new to cpap regimen, 4 months or so and it has helped me tremendously. For my money I don't think you could have another full-face mask perform as well and be move comfortable and less intrusive then the F30 by ResMed. I don't ever want to be without it, so I ordered another one to have on hand, just in case!” – Review by Tom, 9/23/19
“I've tried several different full face masks over the years and never was completely satisfied with any of them until I tried the F30. No more stripes on my face from the straps and red marks around my nose like the previous mask left. Can wear my glasses with the mask on which I couldn't do before. Very comfortable and I'm a side sleeper and this mask stays leak free when on my side. Would highly recommend this mask to anyone who needs a full face mask. Very quiet so the wife loves it to. No wind tunnel sound.” – Reviewed by Don H, 5/20/19
