I recently switched from the Philips DreamStation to the ResMed AirSense 11 CPAP machine. At first, I was impressed that it could automatically adjust the temperature and humidity. However, I’ve run into several issues:

Small water chamber – The chamber is very small and runs out of water quickly.

Humidity/heat settings – I didn’t want to use heat or humidity during the summer, so I turned those settings off. But then I received a message saying they should be set to “Auto” to avoid a dry nose. After switching to Auto, I now wake up with severe dry mouth—a problem I never had before. Why does the machine cause discomfort both when humidity/heat are off and when they are on Auto?

Tubing quality – The tubing is very stiff. Interestingly, the tubing that came with my Philips CPAP (made by ResMed) was soft and flexible. Why isn’t ResMed providing the same quality tubing for their own machine?

App feedback – I receive daily notes from ResMed on my phone, but all they offer are videos and articles. Why isn’t there a way to submit my concerns directly through the app?

Customer support – Why doesn’t ResMed provide direct customer support for users?
