CPAP.com Comments
This cpap machine does not come with the standard blue carrying case that all other S8 cpaps are sold with. This cpap only includes a small black case for only the cpap.
This machine is not DC capable.
All S8 and S8 II CPAP Machines utilize a "Cool Down" feature that runs the CPAP Motor up to 1 hour after turning the machine off. The motor helps to cool off the humidifier plate. You may hear a "faint blowing sound" when you turn the machine off. However, you can unplug the power cord and allow the heater plate to cool without airflow.

"I love it! I have no complaints about this machine at all. I love that you can dial in just how much humidity you need. Its very quite and easy to use. I really like that it all breaks down and can fit into the little travle case that came with it. Very handy as my wife and I travel a lot. An excellent machine overall that's easy to use and travles well!"

"I like the machine, it is basic with the important extras. the ramping is great and the ability to put the hudimifer on it is awesome in the winter. The only thing I would like to see on it is a on/off switch for the power. Unplugging it every morning and plugging it in every night is not very convenient."
