Since tolerating the mask is the "big" problem for most of us hoseheads, see if your supplier will let to test drive several right off, as they are usually more accomodating before the "sale" is made than if you want to xchange it later.
I tried several and found the best for me was the Ultra Mirage by Res Med, Comfortable, few leaks, flexible hose attachments etc. Hope you are getting a heated humidifier too as this can make a real difference in comfort and reduce other CPAP problems too. I have the Elite 6 unit with Humidaire by Resmed and after over4 months find it quiet and very easy to use. For more info on this check an earlier posting by searhing under "tracker" on this site.
All the best in your quest for rest!!!!!
