The best CPAP cleaner is you, yourself. You don't need any of the expensive gadgets.

Those gadgets use the wrong names.

I'm willing to bet that it sanitizes things fine as long as it's used in accordance to instructions.

That said it's still just a sanitizer and it does not clean your equipment. Either way with this or soclean you still need to wash your equipment.

Main benefit for these santizers would be for someone with compromised immune system.

It's new, so nobody knows.

It's a proven technology, however, even they say it only works on the surface... not inside... so, whether it's actually worth anything as a cpap sanitizer is open to debate. but maybe it's useful for something else... :shrug:
