Why would you be familiar with the smell of model car glue? (Huffing is a very bad idea.) New plastic, like in the hose and mask may have a very slight plastic-y scent. Air it out by running it near an open window. (People steal off my porch.) Most of us are unaffected by the "new cpap" smell. Sorr...

Poetry month starts on Monday. Which reminds me of one of my favorite Haikus: Haikus are easy But sometimes they don't make sense Refrigerator But I digress ... There needs to be the distinction here between the replacement devices and these fixed payments to incentivize folks to return their machi...

No haiku attempt here. Coincidence only. It must be a cultural thing. Too Irish to feel poetry when nothing rhymes. Glad that we got the Haiku thing settled, what about this? How does returning a defective CPAP to the manufacturer during a recall, in exchange for cash trap anyone into using an infe...

I received the hypoallergenic filters that I ordered from Amazon yesterday. As stated by the complaints on Amazon, the filters come in a ziplock bag with a printed sticker on it. That's it. No brand name, no indication that these are hypoallergenic filters. In comparison to the hypoallergenic filter...

IMO, the intent of philips' exchange process was to trap patients into years longer of dealing with their inferior machines. The decent thing would have been to recall their damn junk, and giving out cash refunds! The whole stinking nightmare is appalling! You're not posting Haikus, you know? You s...

These appear to be ResMed filters.

At a great price! $0.09 for two. But, the shipping for two? $4.99. Yeah, not so good now.

Whether or not there has been success depends on your definition of success. Any outcome extending ones dependence on a mediocre company is not my idea of success. WTH are you going on about this time? :lol:   Ok, in what way EXACTLY did I indicate any dependance on this 'mediocre company'? My defi...

Faith, hope, and trust. Misdirected? Others have either been fulfilled; or have given up in disgust. Never having used philips: PRICELESS! I agree! Folks here have received a settlement, WTH? And no one talks about it? It would be a BIG help to those of us still attempting to get compensation to he...

It seems that I'm that I'm the only one posting in this thread lately, I can't be the only person here attempting to get reimbursement for this mess, am I?

I am apparently having a run of bad luck with filters from Amazon - the ads show a nice sealed foil bag and when they arrive they are in a plastic bag loose. I think OK, maybe they order bulk and pull 60 out of the box of 1000 and ship them. Then I compare them to the real deal I get from my DME (A...

I found an extra OEM hypo filter that I had stashed away in my cpap carrying case. I'll compare this to the filters that I just ordered from Amazon.

That link is the same that I posed above. The only complaint on these at Amazon is that they don't come in sealed bags, just ziplocks. So you think these are ok? IF (big if)....that is what I am indeed using now then they are so much like the name brand filter, that I keep on hand to compare to, I ...

I think this is what I am using now. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B085QDTCMN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have taken them out of the big package and put in little plastic baggies so I don't remember the brand name. I can't swear to it though.....I know I have bought more f...

https://ap.resmed.com/knowledge/air_filter The above link shows a good comparison of the "regular" ResMed filters and the hypoallergenic filters...and this is from ResMed and shows their OEM products. Note that the S9, AirSense 10 and 11 models all use the same filter. And DMEs CAN supply the hypoa...

Anyone ever use the no-name brand of filters available on Amazon? Well, not no-name but you know what I mean, no real brand name. Back when the Phillips recall surfaced, I purchased a ResMed AirCurve 10 out of pocket. At the time I also purchased a bunch of hypoallergenic filters. I just ran out and...
