Thanks Nick , I just bought one from Moama. Hopefully it's in the post as we speak. I'm looking forward to getting this machine as my icon stopped working about a month ago. I had the icon for 4 years then one day it died on me. And as I don't have a t20 screw driver or a hair-dryer. I couldn't fix it. It probably works now as I haven't touched it since it stopped working. A friend at work lent me a resmed and seeming I can't sleep without a machine. Well just glad some one in my town had a spare. Looking forward to it turning up. I've downloaded the app and ready to go when it turns up. Thanks for everything you do. You make cpap therapy alot less daunting. Years ago the consumer didn't have any control over the machines. Now Thanks to people like you we are getting control back. Can't say Thankyou enough.
Hi Uncle Nicco Thanks so much for the videos… they’re very cheerful, informative and easy to understand. I acquired this fabulous little F&P Sleepstyle Auto from a friend who only used it for 6-8 weeks, so she gave it to me when we learnt the Phillips Dreamstation1 was being recalled. I can’t see anywhere on the machine to turn Bluetooth on and I don’t seem to be able to pair it to my phone. I’ve learnt so much more about sleep apnoea since watching your videos. Thank you so very much. Connie

I've got one now its good but tonight I rolled over in my sleep and it feel off my draw landing upside down and started pumping the water in to my throat was very dodgy woke up to choking on water.
Hi Nick. Thanks for these videos. I have been using the F&P Sleepstyle for a week with the nasal pillow mask. I love it. I battled for 4 months with the ResMed Airsense 10 when I was in Australia earlier this year and eventually gave up. Issues with mask fitting and discomfort and air swallowing. Now sleeping 7-8 hours a night! I looked up your video on the Sleepstyle as I was having trouble pairing my machine to the Sleepstyle App. Turns out that my iPhone couldn’t pair when the machine was already turned on before I opened the app. I unplugged the CPAP, opened the App then plugged the machine in again and all is well. Another point. It seems that my CPAP provider has turned off the AHI data on my machines data screen. Fortunately it still comes through on the App. I don’t know why they would do that. I like to know what’s going on when I’m asleep.🙃
Great video I've had Fisher & Paykel for about 10 years now I've just purchased the sleep style I still have to play around with the settings a bit more I'm really impressed with the weight of it and the tube seems to be lighter also . I do miss the clock but it's not a show stopper thanks for the video it's very helpful
Hey mate mine was rated last night 60 times an hour this is my first day using the machine so I hope all g goes well just watching to see what a good setting for me is. I have the f&p eson 2 nasal mask. Good tutorial btw great stuff 3 years on and still so relevant.

Thanks for this series I have Obstructive Sleep Apnea and my clinic just switched me from Philips after the mess their Dreamstation was causing onto Sleepstyle and this series is so easy to follow and helpful
Hello, I just bought this yesterday in Canada. As soon as I tried it in the night I was not able to see the screen on anymore. Could it be my provider disabled the option ?
How do you need to turn the Bluetooth on the machine my phone can't find it. And this machine is awesome it is so much better just wish it has a clock on it
Bluetooth is on but the app cannot find my machine.... this is a replacement under warranty and I didnt have any issues connecting the last one (humidifier died in the last one)
While I'm using my sleepstyple at night, my wife complained that I still snoring as if I amn't using any cpap machine. Anyway, as I can't adjust the outcome pressure of the machine, what should I do to stop snoring?
Thanks for this informative series. Am TOTALLY new to all of this business...currently trialing this unit with philips dreamwear full face mask (bit of a mouth sleeper). Learning quickly thanks to these vids. Seems to be a ripper! 😎
this is the setup i plan on getting as well, phillip dreamwear full face with fisher and paykel machine. I hear the phillip machine make white noise, so I'm opting for this one
I don’t like that you can’t change the hose temperature. It’s always hot air with this thing. I have this one and the Resmed, and the Resmed gives me nice, cool air. It goes from like 19C to 26C. My sleep tech said it shouldn’t change the temp of the air coming in to you but she’s wrong! lol. I can’t sleep with the hot air.
thanks for these videos - awesome! My Sleepstyle does connect to the app on my Android through bluetooth but the Last Sync: Never - any ideas? I've tried restarting the machine and then the app, logged in and out of the app, removed and reinstalled the app and even changed my socks (lol just to be sure)
Hi Nick. Does the Fisher & Paykel sleep style machine have any settings for the different types of masks, pillows cradle full face etc? Thanks in advance. Hope you and family all doing well.
Good question mate! I don't know actually. I haven't used one in a long time. Most machines do have that function so it adjust the pressure correctly based on the mask resistance. Let me know what you find. Cheers. Nick
Hi Nick. Because I live on NZ I did the simple thing, I rang Fisher & Paykel and asked them about mask options. They said it was smart enough to allow for different masks, but one should always consult their sleep therapist.
I have an older machine with a big 2 & 1/2 inch square window on the front & dial with a push button center button that shows the time and all the settings of the menu as you turn it clockwise and that lights up when you push that center button. It is so sensible and easy to use for crippled & damaged hands like mine. The buttons in this machine would make it impossible for me to use. I wish developers would use more common sense and consider whether their design would meet the challenges of seniors and people in advanced old age that have with loss of hand dexterity and strength (I couldn't angle my fused wrist bones to hit and hold those little buttons) and poorer eyesight that makes them need a big windows that lights up to shows all the settings. We have unique challenges and designers should keep them in mind when making serious design changes and create a design that is suitable for all age groups of users. not just the young and able bodied.e
Hi Cynthia, i agree with you completely! There's been some absolute shockers over the years but hopefully they continue to improve and make products suitable for those with other conditions. Thanks for sharing your experience. Have a great day. Nick
I have this for a moment, its my first machine and found it horrible air is hot and not humid enough at a point I'm about to throw it in the garbage i have 18 hours on it an I'm never able to sleep with it and when i sleep i have the impression of drowning!

Hy guys for your experience what do you suggest for an Autocpap between this sleepstyle and the resmed airsense? Which is more affordable less noise and better technology ? Thank you
Speaking for the North American crowd, we haven't had the opportunity to see one of these puppies yet. What are some benefits of the Sleepstyle over its main competitors (Airsense 10/Dreamstation)?
Fisher Paykel have the best humdification systems. This machines is also dead quiet. Ease of operation is incredible. Across the board though there is no real difference in 'features' between the 3 machines
Summary so far: The Icon was really stupid, F&P have finally caught up with the other manufacturers (ResMed, PR) in terms of basic interaction features. Still no flow data in Sleepyhead. No 12V battery connection (fallback) so DeVilbiss is still king here. It looks like a huge fingerprint magnet. The huge silicone blanket looks somewhat bizarre, no other manufacturers require something like that. The humidifier box doesn't have any real hinges so the plastic folds are bound to tear at some point due to fatigue, the PR design (S1, DS) seems better in this regard. AFAICT it seems to require the proprietary tubing at all times. Humidity adjustment seems unnecessarily cumbersome, e.g. on a PR S1 a twist of the knob is all it takes at any time. F&P seem to target the elderly, but I'd still recommend the Air10 or DS for an easy twist of the knob and legible display. I'd hate to think of having cataract and being stuck with this machine.
mikokuijn i disagree. This machines is remarkably quiet and the humidification system is second to none. The machine is extremely easy to operate, clean and adjust settings even for those with cataracts. Thanks for the feedback but the machine certainly competes very well with the other brands you mention especially on noise and humidity which ware two of the most important factors.
@@CPAPReviews sleepstyle doesnt have automatic start you have manually turn it on and off. It also runs a different algorithm from other companies And doesnt differentiate between male and female I was told. It some how treats differently. My hypopnias are less on this machine averaging .5 per night? Per hour?? Where with my dreamstation I average 1 to 1.5, 2 per night. Still getting dry eyes but about half as bad and I have a different mask now. Still getting a bit o rain out so I'll have turm it down a notch wich will make it dryer again I don't want to have to run a un room humidifier since a prefer a cool room to sleep in and my floor temp is lower leading to condesation in the link tube between mask and heated tube.
03:51 why the hell would you need to buy a new one, that white stuff that builds up from tap water is just minerals from the water. To remove it all you need is some descaling solution, most cpap companies sell it, you can even use coffee machine descaler. Put a bit of descaler in with hot water, shake it around and let it sit for a few hours. Rinse out the container with clean water and give it a clean with soapy water and it will be like brand new.
Hi Darizo, I actually asked the tech guy to turn mine off. I'm using a borrowed unit that has low pressure to start off with and builds up. I found I was hyperventilating on this. Hope you can get yours working though, if that's what you wish.
Can someone tell me why my app doesnt see any data from my SleepStyle Auto machine...I have used it for 3 night so far and I cant get any info to the app...have checked for bluetooth connection...all good. The app says it was last synced 4 min ago but no data showing....also tried the InfoBus USB stickon my PC and it installed ok but I dont know what to do next...any thoughts ??? I am in Townsville North Queensland Australia and its hard to get any help here as there are no F & P distributors I bought my machine online
I don't think so Raymond. I believe the idea behind this machine was to make it very simple and having a clock and alarm settings etc just seemed to over complicate the menu system. Cheers
CPAP Reviews Ok. So I know there’s different type of icons out there. Can u tell me. Did they all come out at the same time or is one of the types fairly new as in released recently

Ok you mentioned about the Bluetooth but didnt say how to turn it on in the machine
Hi Uncle Nicco

Thank you. I did not want to take out a screwdriver but untill you showed me some things I was going to! Thanks again.
Just got mine (in US) and thank you for your videos! I've had FP since 2012 and it's the only one I can use as it is (in your words) dead quiet.
Hi Sharon, very welcome. Glad you're enjoying your F&P

I wish i would have found your video sooner :) good info thank you
Thank you! Better late than never :-). Welcome to the channel. Nick
How can I get one I live in Canada Winnipeg, Manitoba
Good practical advice
The plug is plugged in wrong on the back of the machine as to how its shown in the Quick Start brochure ? Not sure if it may damage the unit ?
Hello, I just bought this yesterday in Canada. As soon as I tried it in the night I was not able to see the screen on anymore. Could it be my provider disabled the option ?
How do you need to turn the Bluetooth on the machine my phone can't find it. And this machine is awesome it is so much better just wish it has a clock on it
press and hold down menu button to bring up extra option including Bluetooth
Bluetooth is on but the app cannot find my machine.... this is a replacement under warranty and I didnt have any issues connecting the last one (humidifier died in the last one)
I use an elbow attached to the main tube for oxygen supply, is it possible to attach an elbow to this tube?
Thanks
Hi, do you have to use water? Can it be used without? I've tried without but the air doesn't come our.
While I'm using my sleepstyple at night, my wife complained that I still snoring as if I amn't using any cpap machine. Anyway, as I can't adjust the outcome pressure of the machine, what should I do to stop snoring?

Wonder when they will have a new version? Anyone hear anything?
How do I turn down the pressure it seems to be blowing air full blast
ruclips.net/video/32zO1yFhh80/видео.html
So does this machine have foam in there somewhere? I would love to see an exploded view of the whole machine.

Is the tube’s diameter is standard?

why shouldn't machine be placed above bed height?
It has to do with the humidifier and water pooling in the tube. Also it's noisier up near the top haha

Anyone know if Soclean is coming up with an adapter for this new machine?
I accidentally water damaged the machine and it never comes up with data any more 😅
hi. does this machine have a version of "dry box" technology like the Dreamstation? thanks

I miss this feature. After 4.5yrs with the icon plus I upgraded to the sleepstyle and had to buy an alarm clock lol
