It may be all Greek to you and actually it is Greek.
Well here is the Invoice for my machine including the hose the mask and thrown in a 12 Volt car lighter adaptor.
Grand Total including taxes at 23% sums to € 1,250.00
at today's exchange rate of 1.00 EUR =1.359724 USD we have 1,699.65 USD
Not bad not bad......

Probably better to look at the price before tax, since your rate is so high (ouch!). $1381.83 .... But they only gave you a 5' hose? Hope the set-up works for you! By the way, sorry, I don't speak or read Greek

You don't have to. Still you can make some sence from the figures mentioned and whatever English is in the description.
The good thing is that they gave me a 17% discount merciful souls.....

You got a 60 series machine so your machine choice in your equipment profile would be
PR System One 60 series Auto CPAP machine
and if you also got the humidifier then the choice would be
PR System One 60 Series Heated tube humidifier with heated tube (even if the hose wasn't heated as that is an option).
The 5 ft hose thing is odd. Most are 6 ft and I couldn't find a match for that product number.
If you didn't get the humidifier included in that price...they should have double or tripled that 17% discount.
I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

Setting up my profile was an early days puzzle. Will rectify, thanks for pointer.
Does it matter that there is no mention of "60 series" on the body of the machine
and yes it is a five footer hose tip to tip
and no I did not get the humidifier
Anyway here is picture of it top view
could you help and identify it
and underside

This is my Wifes CPAP machine. Just make sure you clean the humidifier often. Use only distilled water in it!. Her old junk one the coating on the bottom of the humidifier was always deteriorating and causing it to leak overnight. This one so far does not do that, but still gets slime in there. You also need to change filters often.
If you have pets kleep it away from them, they tend to like to walk across the machine and press on the knob thus pressing you OFF!
Plus pets love to chew on the hose (sometimes) which leads to having to tape it up if you font have spares. The special sensor hose is much harder to obtain, so keep a regular hose around for emergencies in case the sensor hose gets broken.
.
Machine is nice but they should have made the on off button on the side of it, separate from the adjusting knob. Really this is a lot of $$ for a glorified air pump. Yeah it does follow your breathing patterns however.
