Is C-Flex really that good?

[quote="Rastaman"]I've been using C-flex for 2 weeks. It's all I've ever known. I've tried all three settings. Last night I left it on 1 because that's the highest setting and I'm getting an S8 autoset vantage today to replace this. I think I'll like EPR better than C-flex but Linda's right, with Remstar Auto w/C-flex you get your cake and eat it too in auto mode. So, I can see why she prefers it. I'm not sure why EPR isn't offered in Auto mode but I'm hoping just the difference in pressures will be a big improvement for me. I need that thing to sense my needs rather than just turning it on and letting it whirl. And all the auto's seem to do that, just with different algorithms.

C-flex is great. I can feel it. Now, I'll bet if I was doing this whole process next month they would've got me into a Remstar Auto M Series with C-Flex but what can you do? I needed to make a decision.

Worth every penny I paid out of pocket for it. The DME provided me with a nonCFlex machine and it was hard to get used to, made lots of noise when I exhaled. I bought the Remstar Auto w/CFlec and it's like I don;t even have the machine oin when I exhale. I have it set on 2 also.

This is a great post, thanks for asking this question. It's one that I have been going back and forth on for a couple of weeks, c-flex vs. EPR. I am leaning more towards the Resmed because of the easy readout features on it, plus the great compact size of it. I travel every week and it looks like it would be much easier to pack, and it only has one power cord for machine and humidifier.
I've heard mixed reviews of the new M Series, anyone have anything good or bad to say about it?
Thanks again!!
