An FYI and an update.
If you have a nifty bedframe with holes you can just zip tie your hose to the headboard:

-just don't break the headboard?
This:
-elevates the hose so you don't get condensation
-basic cable management less balled hose on the side of the bed
-will take a LOT more force to pull the cpap off the counter this way will probably be jerked awake before that can happen.
Future upgrades: non slip waterproof mat under machine,
A bigger/better fitting zip tie, a nightstand with a back/larger nightstand, vecro to hold machine in place.
Anyone with a cpap should do this! Water in the chamber and a knocked off cpap = very bad times
Any critiques of this setup or concerns? I have a lot of anxiety around sleep and sleep apnea, so I am always worried I will break my machine or even die in my sleep because of lack of air or something.(yay health anxiety)?

I like it and think you did fine. Tho I would use that drawer there.
So its safe to assume that water didn't ruin the cpap?

Re: Cpap/bipap falling off the counter quick fix PSA
The drawer is too shallow/not deep enough but I might go and buy something more suitable because I like the idea of having sides so it cant be pulled out.
This is my spare! I left the old one turned off and am going to let it dry out for a couple more days.

Good Idea. Hopefully it was distilled water?
