Invacare Polaris

Anyone heard of or have an Invacare Polaris machine? I will be getting this machine on Friday and was wondering about people's experience with it.

Its not an auto but it does have a c-flex clone if you get the model with sof-flex.

I'd pass on it myself. Get a more popular brand at less cost. Auto also.

I'm no expert.

Cheers,

Chris

I just gave mine back after 5 months use, it's a straight cpap doesnt make alot of noise, I didnt like the constant pressure and the sore lungs that I got from it so I switched to an apap.

Invacare is a oxygen company trying to bull rush their way into the CPAP market. The polaris is there first attempt - they basic stole C-Flex and put it in a devilbiss machine. The result is a middle of the road CPAP.
