2 Packs Chin Straps for Users and Mouth Breathers - Anti Snoring Chin Strap for Men and Women,Chin Straps to Reduce Air Loss, Instant Mouth-Snoring Relief, Great Value Supplies by Medihealer.

Hands-down the best purchase I’ve ever made on Amazon. It’s not at all uncomfortable and I got used to wearing it right away. It doesn’t stop me from snoring but apparently it’s turned me into a “soft snorer” and I feel like I’m sleeping better. It does slip during the night but I’m ok with that since it’s so simple and unobtrusive. Best thing of all is that I can now sleep on my back with confidence.

My husband uses these to make his CPAP effective. He has used the name brand ones because that’s what the company sent and they are covered by insurance, but only at rather long intervals. My husband’s disease is dementia, so they are often misplaced or even fall apart before we are eligible for a new one since he can be rough on things, lacking the comprehension to be careful. The CPAP doesn’t work without the strap so it is critical we always have an extra on hand. That brought me here and I decided to go with this choice since it is basically just for backup.Overall I think these are at least as good as the name brand, but there are two flaws I note…1. Directions are not clear and are unnecessarily complicated. The chin pocket has a smooth side and a velvet side. My intuition was to put the velvet side out, just as you would wear it with clothing. When it didn’t work well I looked at the pictures and realized it should be worn velvet side next to the skin. The directions don’t explicitly state this but the photos are clear and when worn this way, the complications with the strap go away. Velvet side next to the skin also puts seams away from skin so it becomes a very gentle chin pocket when worn properly. The product is fine put the directions need improvement.2. The other flaw is with the slit in the strap. It only works if your head is exactly the right size. My husband’s head is large. This strap fits fine but when secured, the slit is off center, so can’t be split as shown in illustrations. It still works for him when used as a single strap but it can’t be spread for additional stability. I looked at whether I could lengthen the slit but, while I could cut it with a pair of scissors, the lengthened slit would not be long enough to fix things.I see some people don’t like the long strap when used on a smaller head. That really is a problem that can be solved with scissors. Once you have your fit you can cut it to size.Overall, this is a good value. For us it is certainly good enough for backup. We will continue to use this one as a primary for at least a while.

Does what it is intended to do at a decent price.

I seldom write reviews but this is one of the rare instances that you should know something before you order this. The picture shows a blue Cpap mask like the ones we have used for years. The pair that arrived was anything but. The velcro fastener was on the inside of the head band next to your head or face depending on the amount of adjustment you needed. So it has to be worn inside out to keep from making sores on you. There is no stretch to the head band so you will either reset it every night or struggle to get it in place while pulling your hair. Will not be reordering this again.

Were I to design a chin strap, I’d have all seams face outward to prevent marks on and irritation of, the underlying skin. And, a panel of elastic would assist in keeping the strap in place. I did like the softness of the fabric of the chin cup. In general, I think it is difficult to design these straps so they are comfortable and stay put. I’ll keep looking.

I originally purchased these to use with my CPAP machine. I use a nose pillow mask, but my mouth was still coming open at night. These are much better than the original Resmed one that I started with and half the price. The chin part is softer and the straps are wider and more comfortable. I did make the slit longer to fit my head better. Sometimes if I have a restless night and move around too mulch, it will slip forward and not hold my mouth. I just pull the strap back in place and go back to sleep. They wash up well and dry quickly. I was surprised that the side effects was that I was no longer grinding my teeth and made my tmj pain stopped. That was a nice extra benefit. You have to experiment with the tightness and where best to place it on your head so it does not come off during the night, but once you find the sweet spot on your own head, it works great.

These things didn’t work for me, they either slid forward or back off my head. When I did get them to stay on, my mouth was still able to fall open. On the other hand, they might work for you because my husband got them to work. They have excellent customer service.

I agree with other reviewers: You have to turn the strap "inside out" in order to have the soft velvet against your chin as well as the Velcro adjustment on the outside of your face. You also do not have the typical divided strap that helps to secure at the top of the head. BUT, these things haven't hindered it's practical function in my case! The chin cup stays on my chin and the head strap stays in place for the most part, especially when I separate the top as far as it will go. My hair is thin so I didn't expect it to stay separated like it does. Overall, this is MUCH more comfortable than the large, bulky straps, IMHO. Another plus - it doesn't smell like a tire store.
