Warning! Stop Using This CPAP Machine Immediately

If you use a Devilbiss SleepCube or Intellipap device, it's vital to know that it is FULL of the same PE-PUR foam that caused the Philips Recall and you should replace it. No recall was announced, and the FDA and other health bodies like the Australian TGA have said nothing about it. Just want you to know. Cheers
Thanks to Jeya for sharing the vid with me; there are also a lot more pics on our Facebook group from other users.

Thank you so much for keeping our community informed. The actions taken by that manufacturer are shameful.

[@CPAPReviews]

Cheers, to be honest i feel bad for Devilbiss. I believe them when they say "they haven't had any reports". Philips certainly knew about the problems but i don't think Devilbiss did. Cheers

[@huntsbychainsaw5986]

@@CPAPReviews. Oh? Maybe I misunderstood. I thought the oversight on behalf of Devilbiss was deliberate.

A lot of people are reporting it now though@@huntsbychainsaw5986

Uncle Nicco is clean-shaven and got a haircut? Must have had to go to either church, a wedding, or court. LOL 🤣🤣🤣

Just trying to get laid mate...didn't work

[@manyjoy]

This super thanks for featuring my video and spreading the awareness to people who may still be using this dangerous machine. 🙏

[@CPAPReviews]

Hey buddy, awww you didn't need to send me any money but thank you very much. I did a video on this a few years back but i doubt the FDA will do anything about it because they have their hands full with Philips . All the best mate. Cheers Nicko

[@MountainDiva]

Good gawd that is just horrible. Based on the video you did announce the discontinuation of this product, I knew in my heart this wasn’t going to end well. The manufacturer thought they could simply walk away which is cowardly, disgusting and shameful. Hope all is well with you Nicko and fam…sending love to all from the NW part of the US.

[@markcohen8376]

Holy hell! I was using this model for about 5 years. Stopped about 3 to 4 years ago. Bloody frightening.

[@DoubtingThomas333]

I'm still using it... 12 years now

[@marizen2]

Thank you so much for the info you provide. This is awful. I hope people using this machine can see this video.

Thank you for keeping us up to date. It is much appreciated! By the way, I like the haircut!

Thank you too!

Bless you Uncle Nicko, you are saving more lives than these big health supplier companies. Keep up the great work (and watch your back). You are a true treasure my friend.

[@CPAPReviews]

That's very kind of you to say. Without support from people like you i wouldn't have thrown in the towel a long time ago. Cheers

[@SMG043]

thanks Nick for keeping us informed

[@ThatGuy.75]

This pisses me off... Here is the proof that the foam is dangerous and that is an inhalation hazard. Thank you Uncle Nicko.

[@jobiet]

oh my god. Unbelievable! Thank you, Nicko.

[@CPAPReviews]

No worries!

[@donpeters2012]

Thank God for your Videos They saved my Life

Don't mention it mate. Happy to be of service. Cheers

[@FrankProcopio]

I had one of these for many years but bought a different one as soon as you mentioned something about them a few years ago. Thanks for your great help! I wonder if I should dig mine out of the cupboard and pull it apart to see how bad the foam decay is? Maybe I'd better not, I'll probably just scare myself.

Thank you! 😮

[@toniamirr]

holy crap that is absolutely horrific!

[@denisepasseri9482]

Yikes..Thank you for the information Nick.. How can Phillips/DeVilbis get away with this? What about the Resmed 10 ,11 Aircurve, Airsense series? Do they use the same foam? I’m sure a lot of us would like to know.. Thank you..

[@danieljrgensen133]

No, lucky for Resmed(and their customers/users), they don't use same foam material as Phillips/DeVilbiss! BMC also claim not to use that foam material(I asked, because I had one of their models at the time). Hope this was useful info! 😉

[@denisepasseri9482]

@@danieljrgensen133 Thank you..

[@lucianoingenito6414]

Thanks for the info I have a bmc Luna g 3 how’s the foam in that machine safe to use nick cheers

[@CPAPReviews]

Lots of foam in those devices but haven’t heard any bad news

[@Robert-fl6ei]

Hi Nick, In your opinion, are there any contraindications to the use of CPAP by asthmatic patients?

[@DoubtingThomas333]

No. If cold air is a trigger, use the humidifier.

[@Solar2go]

WOW, just WOW!

[@brendajanes389]

What about the black Phillips apnea machine? Is it safe?

[@cg401]

@CPAP Reviews after watching your original video on the Devilbiss SleepCube i brought a ResMed 10 but i found i was getting a better sleep and waking up more refreshed from the Devilbiss SleepCube than the ResMed even though i used the same settings, pretty disappointed with the resmed

[@CPAPReviews]

just need to fine tune the auto pressure range or switch to fixed pressure mode. And hey, feeling a little less refreshed is better than being dead. Cheers

[@ASpectacular3777]

This is friggin scary! How do we know ResMed’s aren’t deteriorating poorly as well with their foam inside their fan??

[@paulclark4891]

Nice hair cut!!!

[@CPAPReviews]

Cheers

[@jenniferfrance1736]

Oh my god, Thank you for posting this. I have been using this machine off and on. I don't use the water. I have used it about 50 times all together. Does that make a difference? I will not use it anymore. I can't believe they can get away with this?

[@CPAPReviews]

Hey Jen, i don't think 50 times using a device is going to be a big health concern. All the best

[@michaeljohn7398]

Now thats a shocker 😮.

[@fb8850]

I’ve been using the Devilbiss blue auto cpap for about 6 years now are they liable for this ?

[@CPAPReviews]

The Blue uses different foam mate. Cheers

[@fb8850]

That’s great news i’ve been looking and never saw any particles. So glad. 👍

[@Dinkum_Aussie]

Bloody horrible and scary! why haven't these poisonous machines been recalled?

[@CPAPReviews]

Because the TGA / FDA are like titties on a bull. Useless

[@karlosss1868]

That's huge!!! BUT... it may explain why these companies don't want customers to have "right to repair". They have to spend multi millions in design & research (possibly a huge fail here though) and if they agree to right to repair then are they legally able to waive their responsibilities to claims should things go pair shaped? Acids in fingers can degrade rubbers & foams for example (But I doubt in this case) but some repairers may also attempt to clean the internal foam if it looks dusty with detergents that may cause this very issue. OK... back to this particular video.... Phillips, you can run but you can't hide. You've taken on the task of producing medical equipment & I'll be keep to hear what you have to say.

[@DoubtingThomas333]

I just took the foam out today and gave the whole unit a wash and then put it back together. It's better than new and there's no difference in noise.

[@BladeAustralia]

Heck, I used a Devilbiss for five years. Been on an Airsense 10 for the last three years.

[@naturenut8790]

OMG....thanks.

[@tjmb]

Had ResMed ever used this same foam? I’m using an AirSense 11 and haven’t seen anything about those, but I figured I should check.

[@ajwilson313]

I am using the resmed 10, would also like to know.

[@jobiet]

Just FYI - I nound bubbles in the water of my ResMed Airsense 11. I touched the bubbles with a paper towel to see if it was simply a bubble or what. Broke the bubble. On the paper towel, there was black stuff everywhere a bubble touched the paper towel. I took the machine and ONE of the paper towels in a ziploc bag to the local supply house that sells ResMed. It took them, as I remember, a couple of weeks to get back with me and say the company didn't find anything wrong with it, they tightened screws, figured it just must be dust or something. BS. The supply house sent it to ResMed, which is who checked it out. Luckily, I saved the other paper towel with the black stuff on it, in a ziploc bag, and I want to get someone else to check it out. I just don't know who or how. They ought to be able to test it because the black is in several places on the paper towel. I haven't used the machine since. I'm using a different one till I find out what the deal is with the black stuff.

[@jobiet]

*found

[@jobiet]

And by the way, the machine was still under warranty. I got it when Phillips blew up. The ResMed was only about a year old when this happened.

[@tjmb]

@@jobiet have you used a SoClean ozone cleaner on your AirSense 11? From watching some of Niko’s prior videos, it seems that ResMed doesn’t use the same kind of foam that Philips or this other company did, but ozone will still cause the ResMed foam to deteriorate.

[@mkemm50]

SOB looks like I'll be buying two new machines, let me know when we can line up and sue them ! wondered why they just disappeared! Looks like back to Resmeds! which is a good machine

[@poeterritory]

What if you use a hose filter?

[@petergreenham7235]

They are for bacteria

[@SanderNelemans]

Hopefully no foam in the Resmed's...

[@CPAPReviews]

Plenty of foam mate, just not PE-PUR stuff that is not resilient to heat and humidity. Cheers

[@sandrakamback7441]

Oh wow 😢

Goodness, this was the first machine I had, then moved on to a Philips.

Seems perfectly normal to me. Maybe he just needs to clean the filter a bit more? LOL

The ResMed S9 and AirSense 10 and 11 are unaffected and safe. ResMed didn't have any issues with foam for any of their machines.
