These are NOT REFURBS. Person below is incorrect. Please see reply here and below from CPAP.com
Quote from CPAPdotcom :
CPAP.com does not sell refurbished machines, only new, unused machines.

CPAP.com is a authorized seller of ResMed equipment.

This sale like all purchases of machines on CPAP.com for was new, unused machines.

________

Person below didn't comment so this is the only way to respond: how do you know these are refurbs? Nowhere on the product page does it say these are refurbished.

-----------

People falling over each other for this deal:

Note that these are REFURBS, not new, and not even certified by Resmed, so the quality level will be a crapshoot when it comes to who did the refurb work, and while the price is OK, it's not to die for. Hart Medical sells the certified refurbs all day for less than $250 WITH CELLULAR TRANSPONDER when available (must call, not listed on website because it dependence on availability). You CAN check the total (user and blower) hours on these (You Tube is your friend), which is generally not changeble outside of the factory, so if you buy one of these, be sure to do that. These facts and many, many more at https://www.apneaboard.com/forums/index.php

Your comment cannot be blank.

For those who want to take their CPAP machines on the road, this website (https://914gadgets.com/) sells the USB-C power cables. Before it was hassle for me to do hiking/camping with CPAP machine because I need to look for power outlet. Now a small portable battery will last 2-3 days for my AirMini on the road.
Oral appliances which can be effective for mild and moderate sleep apnea.

Positional therapy (look up the shark fin shirt) to keep you off your back. Also just inclining the head of your bed can also be effective.

Inspire which you've probably seen commercials for, is a hypoglossal nerve stimulator in which they implant the stimulator and battery into your chest, and a titration is done (I used to do these), and the voltage is adjusted. Most people couldn't tolerate the voltage required to control their sleep apnea. I still love this innovative alternative however.

UPPP surgery which is the highly invasive surgery where parts of your upper airway are surgically removed to expand the airway. I've also done sleep studies on patients who've gotten this and still had sleep apnea, most still requiring pap therapy.

CPAP is the golden standard in effectively treating sleep apnea, but these alternatives should definitely be considered if pap therapy is not feasible for you.
I paid $500 for this exact same unit from CPAP.com in April of this year. I spent months going back and forth with my insurance trying to get them to approve a replacement CPAP machine for my six year old Airsense 10 and it was an absolute pain in the ass. I bought the machine outright from CPAP.com for less than my deductible. For $200 this is an insane deal.

For insurance to approve this, I had to have both a prescription from my doctor, as well as a valid sleep study for the DME that my doctor's office worked with. The DME didn't want to accept the sleep study I had done six years prior because they wanted it done through a specific sleep program in town. The cost to do the study was going to be $1400 out of pocket. On top of this, I would have to pay the deductible to get a unit, and then would have to self-report data from the SD card to verify compliance.

Buying the machine outright only required a prescription. CPAP.com didn't care about my sleep study information. CPAP.com requested the prescription from my doctor, who then signed and faxed it over, and it was ordered in less than four days. Prior to this, I probably spent eight weeks going back and forth with my insurance. The machine is mine outright and I don't have to self report anything to insurance.

The only benefit I can think of for going through insurance would be to get supplies for "free" (after you meet deductible of course) but this ends once your new calendar year starts and the supplies can be stupid expensive. I now just buy masks, filers, hose, etc. either off Amazon or eBay out of pocket and it's still cheaper than meeting deductible each year.

This model is technically an "old" model since the Airsense 11 came out, but the Airsense 10 was brought back during COVID due to chip shortages. That's why this version is the "card to cloud" edition because the LTE modem had to be removed due to the shortage. There is no real benefit of the LTE card other than your data being available on the ResMed app, and it allows your compliance data to be automatically submitted.

Just FYI, the air pumps start going out around 20k hours on these and you'll get a warning on the display indicating this. 20k hours is around 6-7 years at eight hours of sleep per night, so I'd be very cautious buying used ones off Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, etc. The pump alone costs more than $200 and aftermarket ones are hit and miss. For $200, I'd almost consider buying another and keeping it in the box for 3-4 years down the road when my current one dies.

As far as analyzing sleep data, you should look into a software called Oscar [sleepfiles.com]. You can plug the SD card with your sleep information on it into your PC and it will show you ALL the info your healthcare provider will see. This was SUPER helpful for me to fix my leak rate on my old mask, and ultimately led me to getting a different mask that worked the best for me. This software will also help you configure your machine for YOU, not for whatever the DME thinks you need.

The new Airsense 11 sucks in dry states because the humidifier reservoir doesn't even last 8 hours.

Airsense 11 holds the same volume of water. It is likely that the water dissipates more quickly than you were used to because as the humidifiers heating plate ages, it becomes less effective. The more likely issue is your mask leak is now controlled. Excessive air leaking will definitely cause the water to run out very quickly. You can solve this by supplementing the humidity in the room that you use it with say an external humidifier. Hope this helps.

Even that I'm planning to try oral appliance, I decided that for 208$ I would buy as a backup CPAP. My current CPAP is the same model and it is about 3.5 years old. So I've placed the order with option send RX later. CPAP.com won't charge me until I'll send them RX. I'll get RX from my sleep doctor and would try oral alliance first - so I'll try to hold on to the 208$ price for couple months.

Update - they've charged my card, but won't send me CPAP until I'll send them RX. This is less optimal, but still fine with me - I'll just need to remember to send them RX or cancel the order Smilie

Wow that's a great feature… you could literally obtain an rx through an online home sleep testing service in like 10 days.

Insurance companies dictate the rental when billing for a new machine. At the dime I worked at our standard rentals were: Medicare 13 month rental, bcbs 3 month or 10 month rental with a pre authorization, united healthcare 10 month rental.

I'm 3.5 months into my 10 month rental at $70+/month out of pocket. This deal just saved me ~$250.

If you travel a lot, better get the AirMini

I'm in for 1 as backup. I have the auto sense 11. Those sleep study is a major ripoff. I have a home study done. I was billed like 4k, but insurance covered and payout 3,600. That's just insane.

Sleep tech here that has worked in the durable medical equipment space for a while. This is pretty much at cost what they're charging for this. Card to cloud means no built in modem
To transmit your usage data. Data is saved to the machine and can be transferred by plugging in a SD card. This also doesn't come with a heated hose so be careful not to adjust humidity levels to high as rainout is possible. Also depending on which mask style, be prepared to spend another $100-$300 on that, unless they're on sale too.

Prescriptions are valid for one year since you were seen last.

Feel free to ask any questions, I'd be happy to assist.
I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea from a take home and monitor yourself over 2 nights self-test. I was showing 80 apneas/hr. Instead of getting any help, they refered me to another sleep doctor in town. That doctor said I need to sleep in a monitored room and believes I need a BPAP machine. I have been on the waitlist for 3 months for the monitored sleep exam and have had sleeping issues for over 7 months now. Would getting any quality CPAP machine at this point be better than nothing? Or is a BPAP that much more important where a CPAP would be ineffective?

I have tried mouth tape, mouth clamps, head bands, diet changes, extreme workouts, breathing techniques, melatonin, pills, etc. The only thing that seems to work is sleeping while sitting up with my head leaning forward and even then, at best, I get about 3 hours at a time. I just want some SLEEP.

I have mild sleep apnea, I cannot sleep on my back due to it. Will a CPAP machine allow me to sleep on my back? And were there any other benefits to your life other than having more energy during the day?

I'm a side sleeper and never sleep on my back. I use a mask where the hose connects on the top of my head and it's no problem at all.

Quote from TenseGazelle7819 :
Sleep apnea often goes undiagnosed. Especially in the US where people often forego medical care due to the cost.

If you sleep with a partner and they say you stop breathing/gasp for air at night, you definitely have it. If you don't, there's a questionnaire you can take online that indicates your risk for it (very high if you're overweight and snore).

Though you would need to go to the rigmarole of a sleep study to get insurance to pay for supplies, etc.
I went through a study and was proven I had apnea. Insurance said I was non-compliant and never wore it the week they rented me one. Bull! I slept over 6 hours with it a few nights and ripped it off my face in my sleep after 3 or 4 hours the other nights. That is not Non-compliance. That is panicking because the Hoover is pushing air against you and you think you can't breath. Doctor said you had a hard week. I said the logs don't even show close to the week I had. I asked the medical rental place how much to buy one out of pocket. They were going to let me buy the used one I had for almost triple the cost of what I could buy a new one for. I turned around and just had my Doctor write me an Rx so I could buy my own. I have tried numerous times, but I just have a hard time with it. This has been over 5 years. They say the new ones get better and better. To me, having one and starting very low pressure(less than you need)to allow you to get used to it and gradually stepping it up is the way to go. I think people would have better results that way. CPAP's also cause long term other issues for the people who can get used to them, so they are not perfect solution, but I believe they are lesser than the person not having them

Just my luck.
My insurance denied my sleep study, even though my cardiologist recommended that I have one done.
Has anyone been able to find out how long this deal will be on?

I'm in for one as an extra. I have a Phillips Dreamstation 2 but I've heard these AirSense units are better. I'll try them both side by side, see which one I like more and put the other down in my guest room.

How long are prescriptions good for? My wife has one that needs to be replaced.
It depends on your doctor. My family doctor was really cool and wrote my prescription to be "valid for 99 years." If your prescription does not list an expiration, these online shops might be at liberty to honor that prescription indefinitely.
