The best ResMed full face CPAP mask for most people is the AirFit F20 ($89–$125) — a comfortable, reliable all-rounder. If red marks or sensitive skin are a problem, the memory-foam AirTouch F20 is the pick; movers and side sleepers do best with the top-of-head AirFit F30i; and the newer, more compact AirFit F40 suits those who want a smaller, lighter mask. All are full face masks that cover the nose and mouth — ideal for mouth breathers and higher pressures.

What is a full face CPAP mask?
A full face CPAP mask covers both your nose and mouth, delivering therapy air even if you breathe through your mouth during sleep. Full face masks are the best choice for mouth breathers, people prescribed higher pressures, and anyone who struggles with nasal congestion — situations where a nasal or nasal pillow mask can leak or feel insufficient.
Best overall: ResMed AirFit F20 — $89–$125
The AirFit F20 is ResMed's most popular full face mask and the safe default for most people. Its InfinitySeal silicone cushion adapts to a wide range of face shapes, magnetic headgear clips make it easy to put on and take off, and it comes in multiple sizes plus a For Her version with a smaller-profile fit.
Best for sensitive skin: ResMed AirTouch F20 — $119
The AirTouch F20 uses the same frame and headgear as the AirFit F20 but swaps the silicone cushion for UltraSoft memory foam. It's the go-to option if you get red marks, pressure sores, or skin irritation from a silicone seal. The foam cushion is replaced more often than silicone, so factor that into ongoing supply costs.
Best compact mask: ResMed AirFit F40 — $129
The AirFit F40 is ResMed's newest full face mask, designed to be smaller and lighter than the F20 while still sealing over the nose and mouth. A strong choice if you found older full face masks bulky or want the most modern, low-profile option.
Best for movers and side sleepers: ResMed AirFit F30i — $110–$149
The AirFit F30i routes the tube to the top of your head instead of the front of your face, so you can sleep on your side or stomach, roll over freely, and read or watch TV without the hose in the way. Its cushion sits under the nose rather than over the bridge, which also helps people who feel claustrophobic in traditional masks.
Best minimal-contact mask: ResMed AirFit F30 — $105–$125
The AirFit F30 has a compact cushion that sits below the nose instead of over the bridge, leaving your line of sight clear. That makes it a good fit for glasses wearers, people with facial hair, and anyone who wants the least amount of mask on their face while still covering the mouth.
How to choose the right full face mask
- Skin sensitivity: prone to red marks? Start with the memory-foam AirTouch F20.
- Sleep position: side or stomach sleeper, or a mover? The top-of-tube AirFit F30i stays out of the way.
- Claustrophobia or glasses: the minimal-contact AirFit F30 or F30i keeps the mask off the bridge of your nose.
- Fit and sizing: most masks come in multiple cushion sizes — use ResMed's fit guides, and remember cushions are replaceable separately.
- Facial hair: full face masks can be harder to seal over a beard; the under-nose F30 often seals better than over-bridge designs.
