Simon, I don't maybe if you google gel masks you may find them, I have seen any for the forehead, I make my own out of material and use the off cuts for forehead padding, it works for me.

I think the one Terry means is the CPAP Seal  http://www.cpapseal.com/ but it looks to me like they're both exactly the same.  Perhaps the Gel United are suppliers, but have added a footcare range too.  I've never tried them, but have several customers who have.  Some hate them and some like them.  We try to only stock products which work for a large percentage of people, but would be interested to hear what you think if you try them.  I, like Terry, find the home-made liners work well, but most of the time I don't need them with the masks I use.

Simon, I'm not sure about the gel masks but with the cloth liners they stretch and the air pressure during the night stretches them as we'll.

I've seen comments before on the gel liners that you can trim them to suit.  I'm sure it was on their main website Simon.

Yes, it's the Quattro Air Simon, and sounds like it's a competitor to Respironics' new Amara, as it advertises how light it is, and the full face masks don't come much lighter than the Amara, so will be interesting to hear how it goes when people start getting it.
