Click on the User Control Panel (top left, under the banner). Welcome to the forum.

Under Search, you will see User Control Panel. From there you can fill in your Profile, but also click on Edit Equipment in the left on the Profile page and then choose your gear from the pull down menus....after which choose to show those choices in TEXT. This will put your equipment at the bottom of every post you write automatically and allow those with the same machine/mask to offer help, if needed.
Yes, that blue eyed beauty is my cat! He is a seal point, bi-color Ragdoll. I adopted him in '08 from folks who could no longer care for him. He is a joy and makes me smile each and every day.

Welcome to the board, dbblet!

Sorry I missed seeing your first post when you introduced yourself.

Sounds like you have a very cooperative doctor...one who asked you what machine you'd like to have.
In other words, a doctor who knows there's more than one brand, and more than one model within the brands, and is allowing the budding "CPAP user" to have plenty of input (if "future user" wants to have some say-so) into which machine/model it will be.

Probably most people would answer, "Whatever you think best, doc." You dug into researching machines though, dbblet. Very smart of you!!

You got a very good one.
