F&P Simplus vs Vitera: full-face masks compared

1 min read By HHZ Editorial Next review

The F&P Simplus and Vitera are both over-the-nose full-face masks in S, M and L. On F&P's figures the Simplus is quieter (25.8 vs 29.8 dBA sound power) and it costs less at CPAP.com ($135 vs $149 complete), but it's rated only to 25 cmH2O vs 30 for the Vitera. This comparison is based on F&P's instructions for use, not hands-on testing.

How we reviewed this: written from Fisher & Paykel’s instructions for use and U.S. retail prices, not hands-on testing.
