Why all the snark? The poster just wanted to know if anyone besides FP had a machine with an alarm clock. I am sure he knows what alarm clocks are available, and that clock radios exist. Why weight in on conversation when you can't give any positive help?

Why can't you read the posts, it's been said one brand has what he wants, and it's broken, in english. Jim

Sorry you can't get the meaning of SOMEONE OTHER THAN FP. You people need to turn up the pressure on your machines... Your brains are starved of air.

OK, besides F-P, nobody anyone can think of.
Now there may be another brand, maybe a Third world or Chinese knock-off,
but we don't know, and might not mention, to avoid the illusion of endorsing an unknown product.
Happy, now?

The nice answer would be: " We don't know of any dependable machines besides FP that have the feature you want."

That's almost information overload, maybe you could go online and check the spec of popular machines, you might find one you like, I hear on the internet there's this place called Google, you ask it your question and it comes up with a we hole lot of suggestions, some of which sometimes are useful.

F&P is the only one I know of as well. Sorry! Working for a DME we use the Resmed and Respironics machines. Working with a sleep doc I see all types of machines being brought in by patients but have not seen an alarm on one except the F&P.
Good luck in your search.

It is sort of like buying a car for its cup holders.

In this day of electronics, I just can't imagine choosing a CPAP because it has an alarm clock. Snark, snark.

I was looking on Craigslist, I am trying to find a F-22 Fighter Jet, with a Sun Room, and also XPAP machine that's not a F&P, that has a alarm clock, and lasts 10 years. Jim

Multipurpose appliances fall into the novelty gadget field.
Kooky combinations do not always mean quality.
For example, LG has produced some decent refrigerators and likewise TV's;
but when they combined the two, it was a record-breaking failure.
Kind of reminded me of the Plenty family's kitchen stove in the Dick Tracy comic.
That little TV in the range was the epitome of poor white taste (or lack thereof)
And to think I once considered the F-P machine to be so charming . . .
