Post F&P flexi 431 vs 432 
I currently use the 431 and loved the idea of the gel insert on the 432. I tried the medium & large sizes of the 432 but just couldn’t get a proper fit. I don’t want to write of the 432 entirely because I couldn’t get the 431 to stop leaking until I started lining the entire cushion with ropes of the Mack’s ear plugs – now it’s my #1 mask.  
Has anyone switched from the 431 to the 432, or found the 431 to be a better fitting mask? Comments on the 432?
Thanks & I hope everyone is enjoying the looong weekend.

I have a 432 but it's my first mask so I have no comparison. I find it leaks a lot, sometimes uncontrollably. My numbers are usually higher when I use it. I got a Mirage Quattro replacement, which works minimally better.

I love how you use the word "gel" - I don't find the cushion very "gel-like" and find it breaks down in time from hard sponge to slightly softer sponge... but it's not gel-like, that is it doesn't flow from high to low spots the way gel would.
Sorry, I'm not very happy with that mask.

I just started using the 432. Coming from the 431, I find it a bit more comfortable, but also a bit more noisy. I find that I keep checking to see if the mask is leaking because of this noise. But once I fall asleep, I usually have no issues with it.

Also, the mask fits slightly smaller than the 431, but I have not had any sealing issues because of that.
