Need feedback: APex ICH; BMC G2

Post by East » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:12 am

Hi - am a first time buyer for a CPP machine, and need to choose between:

a) more expensive options of Resmed 9 and Hoffrichter point 2 (both without humidifier because it adds significantly to the costs)

b) Apex ICH and BMC G2, which are much cheaper, even with the humidifier.

Can someone give me some feedback on the Apex ICH and/or the BMC G2? As soon as possible since I need to make a decision soon? Thanks much, in advance,

East

never heard of any of those except the resmed S9, make sure you do NOT get either of the models that say "escape" on the top.

I haven't any idea what your item B is, never heard of it... Resmed 9 I know about, but there are newer models of it out there... just don't get a Resmed model that has Escape in it's name (you'll see it on the machine) Airsense 10 is the newest Resmed model... I use Phillips Respironics S1 so I have nothing to compare it with.

FYI - - Below is a link to the BMC product. I have the cheap BMC model. I got stuck with it before finding this site and learning about Sleepy Head Software, which is not compatible with BMC products.

Needs a modification to help you sleep at night better... OR if you can't sleep at least some company.

I guess BMC is the Chinese company involved in all the patent lawsuits with Remed: https://www.google.com/search?q=bmc+resmed+lawsuit
