What's the big deal with Auto start?
I've never used it.

James's RT said that nasal pillows fit better if put in while there's airflow, so he has never used it.

My mom likes it. I hate it. We both have the same machine and same mask. Personal preference I guess

Who would have thought it would be this challenging to sleep and breathe at the same time?

My unit has turned off a couple of times. 1st time I figured I did it so I pushed it further away so I had to stretch to reach it, 2nd time my dh said it went off and came back on in a a short time just as he was about to wake me. My unit was not set on smart start so not sure why this would happen. the power brick is about 30 in. from the blower so that isn't it either. My personal guess is a defect in the RESMED. Recall?
