I been on cpap for about two years and have struggled with my mask leaking and I have tried every mask there is and still have trouble with them leaking,I am that person who rolls arround alot at night. I now found a product that has helped with my mask leaking called the cpap tube support. It was very easy to install onto my night stand and it has helped me tremendously with my leakage. I found it by accident on a web site called cpapstands. If you are someone having mask leaking problems this will help.

Sort of Spam, but it may be helpful to someone.

Yeah, I've seen worse. At least this spam is on topic! And I sure can't fault someone for trying to drum up business in the xPAP therapy space.

A note on this, the design of the night stand would tend to amplify the sound of the xPAP device. I would highly recommend adding a foam mat to help help absorb the sound. You can find mats to hold items in workshop shelves. They provide a little bit of friction and help absorb sound:

I often use that type of design with computers, where I want to try to silence the normal vibrations from fans that are transmitted into a table or work space.

Just an idea that might help tame this particular design.
