What are best hose hangers?

Post by Sleep2Die4 » Thu Feb 02, 2012 1:58 pm

What are best hose hangers and where do you buy them?

Good self-made ones?

Need one that folds small for travel.

Above link has links to many different threads and discussions about various hose management systems from store bought to DIY. I don't use one so I have no experience with them. If I wanted to do something to keep hose elevated...my bed is an old antique iron bed with lots of places to route the hose through the iron scrolls.

If the headboard is in front of a window, a clothespin to the curtains and a stretchy headband is perfect-and compact.

I have a Hozer which is sold on cpap.com. It is excellent! Very well engineered and well made. I didn't really think I needed a hose management system as I do not move a lot in bed, but once I got it I became aware of how much hose re-arranging I was doing. It comes with a nice travel sleeve and is very compact. I wouldn't be without it even for an overnight. Worth every penny IMHO.

Good luck!

I really like this one: http://www.ardeninnovations.com/cpap-hose-lift/

The CPAP Hose Lift by Arden Innovations

Even has a hook for my mask, chinstrap, etc.

I got it from here: http://www.thecpappeople.com/Products/A ... ELIFT.aspx

but it looks like Amazon has it or something similar for about half that price.

Tip: I put the base in the head of the bed instead of at the side. (base goes between mattress and whatever you call the thing under the mattress)

Nate

and folds for travel.

I'm with bright choice, I really like my Hozer. springy like a fishing rod, easy for travel, sturdy for everyday, and allows lots of movement in my king size bed. kathy
Any landing you walk away from is a good one; if you don't break your airplane it's excellent.

This is what cpap.com said about the hozer: "This product no longer available and this information is for reference only."

I found one for under $20, at Harriet Carter, under sleep solutions.
I plan to get a similar one with my next mask order from cpap.com--a little higher base price, but free shipping.
--and my Flex purchase is easier to justify.

I am surprised that no one mentioned the Cozy Hoze Boss will fit in a shirt pocket. I added a hair scrunchie to mine.

For travel or home...the Cozy Hoze Boss is the BEST. And compact too.

I have two of these; one in my bedroom and the other packed with my travel cpap bag. I just returned from Asia where I spent 5+ wks on the road, and as has been the case for past two years, great product to use. Easy, quick, doesn't take up any room. Get it directly from manufacturer and they offer 14 day no question asked refund policy: http://www.pur-sleep.com/products/produ ... ategory=13

I bought this one...works fine and breaks down for travel in the included carry bag. Not fancy...but the price was right.

Command™ Small Wire Hooks are what you want to buy. I found mine at Walmart but here's a picture of what they look like.

3M # is 17067 (3pack)

Also buy a large rubber band or hair scrunchie large enough to fit over your head. Slip the hose thru the scrunchie then hang it on the hook. Should you have troubles with the scrunchie coming 'off the hook' squeeze or bend the hook closer together.

Great for travel OR home use. AND you could buy hundreds of these for the price of those others listed.

Send the savings to Soupy Sales or Gumby Damit

HTH

Now time to get some ....
