SoClean2 Lesson Learned Hard Way - WARNING for Others

Post by Imatryin » Tue Feb 04, 2020 4:04 pm

DO NOT BUY SOCLEAN2!!!

Yes I'm a doofus who bought a SoClean2 even after reading the warnings on this forum. Why? Because my doctor is pushing them.

For 3 years, I never used anything except baby wipes to clean my mask and never cleaned my hose. I just replaced them once a year. No problems.

Last week, I noticed my nasal pillows had orange gunk and upon further inspection the mask hose was turning orange. Who knows what the heated hose looks like :mrgreen: --so I'll be buying all new stuff.

Lesson Learned!

So, who should you listen to?

I suggest you go back to your doctor and demand a refund.

Oh believe me...my doc is getting a piece of my mind! Unfortunately, he gave me a coupon code, but I bought directly from SoClean and they won't take it back.

He didn't sell it. He "highly suggested" it and gave me a coupon code to make an online order with SoClean.

And I would bet you a pan of fresh-baked brownies that he got a BIG KICKBACK!
Report his greedy ass to the state licensing board.

always good to let other people know. sorry you got taken.

to others more smart than me.(all y'all!)

this is the second time in a few weeks that there has been a report of "orange gunk". i don't believe i've seen that reported before.

could someone explain just what that orange gunk is?
people say i'm self absorbed.
but that's enough about them.

I, too am retired, but if memory serves, work was a place where people walked behind you,
and judged you by what was on your screen.
I always hated that.
But I really hated it when I was "concentrating", and my stupidvisor would slap my desk.
"Concentrating" was how I dealt with excessive daytime sleepiness--before cpap fixed it.
