I have just got this machine now for a week on rental from my local district health board, and quite frankly, it has some good points and not-so good points.
Good points are:
Adjustable pressure relief when exhaling - makes breathing much more comfortable.
Automatic turn-on is a great feature.
Can be used (without the humidifier) on airlines.
The water tank can be opened and washed.
Bad points are:
No heated tube, so rainout is a big problem
The heating of the water is pathetic to say the least.
Very small water tank.
Not an all-in-one system - it has a separate power supply brick.
Not easy to set up, as there are so many options.....
The automatic turn-off feature does not work.
The machine is not very quiet at night, so consequently.....
My wife hates it!!!
So, overall my star rating is not good - it gets 1 star.
I'm going to try to go back to the F&P 604 machine.....

Used it for 2 nights and it sounded loud like a whine noise to it. It kept us both awake. I called my supplier and took it back. It was some sort of fault with the machine. We found a couple more new ones that were as loud or louder than my first as well. We checked another and it was really quiet. It turns out its much quieter than my old one too. SO if yours is loud it may have a defect.

I had the same experience, in reverse - my test version was quiet as a mouse, and the permanent version wasn't. It seems that the difference was that I tested it without a humidifier, and the bulk of the noise comes from the humidifier itself, acting like a big echo chamber. a full tank is quiet, but if you start with a half tank, like usually do (hey, I have to make my own distilled water, so I am sparing) then it starts off quite noisy until it heats up.
Never had rain-out. And sleepyhead works fine to read the software. no problem getting the chip out either.

I have a REMstar Pro C-Flex+ Auto IQ which I have had for 31 days. No problems to report at all except downloading a manual. Will be purchasing a heated hose next time I'm home from Northern Alberta. Power is sometimes an issue so I've hooked the machine up to a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) and tested the Cpap, works just great.
Are we allowed to talk about the cost of these machines?

That's a question better asked on the Main Forum than here. You'll get an answer much faster. This forum is for reviews.
