waterboarding at 4 AM

I was pretty interested until I saw the $139 price tag. Youch!

Btw, how often do you guys change out your cpap mask? I find that after a few months the soft rubber around the edges doesn't hold a seal as well.

my insurance covers mask, tube, air filters (sometimes 2, sometimes 6?) and the water reservoir every 6 months, no cost to me, no deductible.

they also let me exchange the mask in 30 days if I don't like the model. I started one year go, and I just got my 3rd maks, and seems better that the previous 2 models, but they were also good. just looking for the perfect mask.

i have no idea what a CPAP is, and i'm not Googling it.

CPAPs are for people who have, erm, trouble snoring and, uh... suffer from sleep apnea.
How bad does that have to be before you qualify for one?

My wife has had success with a home-made synthetic fleece insulating cover for the hose. It also helps if she has the machine lower than the top of the bed so condensation in the hose runs back down into the machine.
