Z2 Auto Portable Auto-CPAP Machine Package

Always super easy to work with, helped me get my prescription uploaded and I received my travel CPAP machine in two days!!! I always have great service from Direct Home Medical.... wish they could be my primary CPAP supplier!!! The Z2 was recommended to me by a customer at my work and I am so grateful! Traveling next month and had been worried about bringing my regular machine. The Z2 is less than half the size and works as good, if not better than my regular machine! INo water chamber. It has a special "inline" humidification system. I would totally recommend the Breas Z2!

I was tired of lugging my Phillips c-pap with when traveling, especially on short trips where I didn't check a bag. Very impressed with the Z2. The noise level is equal to my Phillips just in a different way. The Z2 noise seems to be at the mask as where my Phillips is at the machine. My wife actually thinks the Z2 is quieter. The only things that seem strange are the hose and power plug connections to the machine. Hose connection feels like it could break fairly easily and the power connection feels like it could be located somewhere else besides right above the hose connections. Very impressed so far. I've used it for three trips already. Set-up was easy and it came preloaded with my prescription level.

I did not have any problems with the noise of the machine. Yes, slightly louder than home unit, but barely. The thing that I am still getting used to is the lack of in-line humidifier. I am using the filters that help with that, but it isn't the same for sure. Hopefully after more trips I will get used to it. Other than that, it seems to work great and takes up much less room in the suit case. The customer service was excellent. They answered all of my questions and did not seemed rushed to get me off the phone. I would give the service a 5. The machine a 4 only because of the humidifier issue. Well worth the investment to have the travel size option.

The machine works wonderfully for what I needed it for. I travel a lot and it is perfect for that

My biggest concern (after cost) about a travel machine was noise. The Z2 is noticeably louder than my basically silent Airsense 10- just a little machine noise, but mainly breathing/air flow sounds conveyed through the tube. This was a given for a travel size machine, but I had no trouble sleeping with it. I thought I would because I hate white noise like AC units, humidifiers, etc, but the Z2 is relatively quiet and easy to let fade into the background. No complaints from my wife. Those who like a little white noise for sleep would see it as a positive. My prescription pressure is 5-15 cm, it mostly runs 5-8 cm, it may be noisier for those with higher pressures. I saw some bad reviews for the Nitelog app but it loaded and connected easily. App is not needed to run the unit, which has basic info available on its own screen, but the app records additional info and displays it nicely. I plan to stick with the Airsense 10 at home (quieter, and set up with my insurer for compliance), but really looking forward to not taking up half my carry-on bag for cpap when I travel. I did try various combinations of the included 4' , 15mm hose, another 6' 20mm hose on hand, with/without muffler. I also tried a collapsible spring-loaded "travel hose" reported to reduce the noise. Unfortunately, it did not make a difference for me, and the rigid plastic connectors did not connect solidly with the machine or mask. The basic set up as provided with muffler and 4'hose is as good as anything, and the 4' hose is fairly compact. A word on service- I have had excellent service from DHM on prior orders, this was no exception. There was a glitch when I tried to upload my prescription on my order. DHM emailed within the hour, I sent the prescription back by email, and had my order in hand the next day (MA). Outstanding!

Very pleased with the Z2 Portable Auto CPAP. It is extremely light and fits in your hand. It is not just quiet, it was silent. Exactly what I wanted for upcoming travel.

The representative was very patient and answered all of my questions and gave an thorough explanation of the machine.

It appears that the device was not set to the specifications on the prescription that was sent in. That is, rather than a CPAP setting, the device came with APAP. When I wrote the 'care team' asking how to re-set to CPAP, I received a 1-page instruction guide to setting the pressure and changing to CPAP from APAP. However, directions are less than clear and I have been unable to change the setting. I will continue to try, but after 45 minutes I am not optimistic about future success.

The unit is too loud. There is a loud woosh sound on inhalation at the mask and an associated whine at the unit even when using their muffler device. There is no way I could get through 30 min. of use let alone an entire night. It's getting returned.

Worked well when I used it overseas. However, the constant CPAP pressure was a bit much. The slow build up to the required pressure setting worked well. It is a very loud CPAP, my spouse would never be able to sleep without ear plugs.

I could deal with the air noise, where the included muffler helped a lot, however I could not deal with chirping noise when the machine was set to APAP and EPR was active. Every exhale would make the small pump swirl-chirp like. I took a video of it and sent to DHM and right away they thought it was not right. Sent me another one and same thing. Apparently Breas Z2 have that issue when EPR is set ti highest settings (3). Sent both of them back and ordered resmed airmini. The only negative I can say so far about airmini - more expensive and lack of access to sleep report for last year/month/week.

Just too loud, inhale/exhale made a loud darth vader noise. I tried all three settings, to no avail. Wife and I were laughing. I had no idea portables were this loud. Back to the Resmed S10 and a 12V battery cord. Makes me appreciate how quiet that machine is.

Easy to set up. Works just as good as the full size unit, with none of the noise. Love the size and buttons are easy to find/use.

Wonderful small device. Some nights I like this better than my dream station.

In December I ordered a Z2 CPCP for travel use. I had just been directed by my doctor to use a CPAP, but the local medical supply place had a two-month backup due to a recall. In addition my insurance would not provide a travel CPAP, only home models. I called Direct Home Medical and they had the Z2 portable CPAP in stock. It arrived two days later and I began using it immediately. It was comfortable and provided just what I wanted. What a great little unit. I sleep all night without interruption (except by my cat at 4:30 when she gets hungry) and for eight hours, instead of my usual six. I am very glad I picked this unit.

I am a second time purchaser of the Z mini auto pap travel machines. I wanted something a little quieter, so I purchased the Z2. Super quiet and fantastic.

This is a good machine. It works about as well as my DreamStation (before the Phillips recall), which is a full-sized unit. I'm now using it as my daily machine and am happy with it so far. It's very quiet and easy to program, especially with the manufacturer's Night Log (free) app.

Beautiful compact design and features. In the end I could not tolerate it because it was too noisy and did not deliver enough pressure, so I returned it.

Perfect for travel and as a backup
