This new 'Therapy Mask 3100' by Philips Respironics is the most cost-effective mask they have ever had, when supplied in single sizes, once the correct size is known, and it's a very lightweight mask which comes in either an under-the-nose cushion cradle cushion or nasal pillows which and both can be used on the same mask frame.
This 'Therapy Mask 3100' is the newest mask from Philips Respironics and will hopefully be a gamechanger for nasal breathers due to it being both economical for clinics and to purchase. It is also very lightweight and Philips Respironics have already won an iF Award for the mask before its official release.

Philips Respironics state the mask is "28% smaller and 18% lighter than the leading competitive pillows mask" which is something all patients strive for!
Hope2Sleep's Observations:-
-
Extremely lightweight and early feedback from patients are that they could barely feel the mask and was less-cumbersome than previous ones they had used.
-
The headgear is a unique experience and described by patients (especially ladies) that the headgear operates like bra straps and easy to adjust. There is no strap going around the back of the neck which can be a cause of discomfort to some patients.
-
Very cost-effective compared to other quality masks in single sizes.
-
Fitting the cradle cushion or pillows to the mask is so easy, and the pull on the magnet amazing, making it impossible to put the cushion or pillows on the frame the wrong way!
-
For first-time-users of the mask, there is a 'FitPack' version to find the correct size, for which we have ensured contains all the sizes of either the under-the-nose cradle cushions or the nasal pillows (please note that the official Philips version of the 'FitPacks' only contain 3 sizes). Future masks in the single size packs, once the correct size is known, are very economical compared to other quality masks.
-
Another good mask for people who like wearing their reading glasses with the mask on.
-
The only slight issue is that the fabric attached to the mask frame is a little fiddly to remove for washing, but will be easier once mastered or it could perhaps be washed whilst still attached to the frame.
Philips Respironics say:-
Everything clicks, right from the start...


Mask Options:-
It is highly recommended when new to the mask to purchase the 'FitPack' option for the first time in trying the mask so that all sizes of the cradle cushions or nasal pillows can be tried. (Please note that the FitPack Hope2Sleep with our unique part number version contains all the sizes of either the cradle cushions or pillows).
For further purchases of the masks once the correct size is known, both options of the masks can be bought in one single size at a very cost-effective price for a quality mask. Replacement Headgear, Nasal Cradle Cushions, Nasal Pillows and Mini Hose Swivel can also be bought as replacement parts
Tips and Warnings:-
DO NOT attempt to take off the small mini tube from the black plastic frame as it is one sealed unit. The frame with the mini tube attached can be purchased separately as an accessory.
If you require a Mini Hose Cover to insulate the small mini tube to avoid 'rainout' (water in the tube) the 12 inch option will work well.
The mask contains a magnet to connect the cushion or pillows, so please read 'Important Notes' below.
Important Notes:-
The 3100 Mask's Cradle Cushion and Nasal Pillows contain a Strong Magnet
