Hello all,

My partner has been diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. His insurance will not cover and anything DME except diabetic supplies, so we're researching cpap machines. We've found a ResMed S8 Autoset (Part No. 33112) with humidifer H4i. It is being advertised with 632 hours of blower usage. Comes with unit w/ humidifier, travel bag, manuals, and memory card.

We're wondering what would be a good price for this unit? Thanks in advance

You can see the same (or very, very similar) machine here for $200 with just under 400 hours: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=100099&st=0&sk=t&sd ... nefit+dori

For some reason my original post went in as guest even though I created an account. I have found the Resmed S8 Autoset II with humdifier locally for $200. I've looked at some websites for comparable prices and this seems to be a good price. Is this machine reliable? Thanks!
