Re: Resmed S9

Thanks. How is the noise of the S9 vs the A10? I used my Z1 last night and didn't like it.

Resmed S9

I've been using my Airsense S10 for home and travel and am getting tired of the space it takes in my luggage. I tried the Z1 but it's way too noisy, and all the hacks to minimize the noise have failed. I see that the S9 is small and was well liked, but it's now discontinued. My question is if anybod...

Re: Nasal pillow dermatitis

Thanks for the suggestions!
Ordered the cozy.

Tried lanolin and changed up the pillows and didnt get any relief. Dermatologist insisted I take a few days off form the cpap which has been awful. I’m co...

Re: bed pillow question

I like the idea of the buckwheat pillow but am curious what people think about the ones made specifically for cpap users with cutouts to minimize mask disruption. Mypillow and the buckwheat are both rectangular.

Re: bed pillow question

Thanks! I'll check it out. update: I looked up mypillow.com. It looks interesting but there are almost as many virulent criticisms as there are positive reviews. People talk about it being a ripoff and infomercial scam. The other pillows seem to have more measured reviews. Anybody care to share thou...
