The AirSense is coming from a regular DME using your insurance to pay for it. Is that correct? If something happens technically with the new machine they (DME) would be handling the return and getting a new unit if need be and they normally will offer a loaner but since you already have a really good back up machine....not a critical issue.
Getting it from a DME isn't as much of a PITA as buying it online and having to ship it back and wait and all that. Most of the time if a machine develops problems and a DME is involved they just swap it out with current stock and they send it back and they get another replacement if that's what is needed. You don't have to wait weeks to get your machine back.
It's part of the reason they get the big bucks for a machine that can be bought online for quite a bit less...just part of the service they are supposed to offer.
You might ask your supplier exactly what they would do in the event the new technology machine decided to go bad on you.
Might ease your mind a little...or make the decision for you.
I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.
