🎯 What is good about it

• The pressure range (4-30 cmH₂O) covers a wide span of therapy needs.

• Having multiple modes including Auto BiPAP is beneficial for users who need more than fixed CPAP.

• Heated humidifier + ramp + leak compensation = comfort features that help adopt therapy.

• Data tracking can help monitor how you’re doing.

• Manufactured in India (so spare parts/servicing may be more easily available locally).

⚠️ Things to check / be cautious about

• Prescription & settings: BiPAP machines are medical devices. You’ll need a proper prescription and the machine must be set up/configured by a qualified respiratory therapist or sleep specialist.

• Mask fit & leaks: Even with leak compensation, mask fit is critical. Poor fit can reduce efficacy or cause discomfort.

• Service & support: Check warranty, service centres, availability of parts locally. For example some specs mention “2 years warranty”.

• Model variant matters: “B5” / “i-Series B5” vs “AirSmart B5 Auto BiPAP” vs other model names — make sure you’re getting the exact variant you need. Specifications vary slightly.

• Power / usage environment: Confirm compatibility with your local voltage, all accessories (humidifier, filters) included etc.

• Clinical suitability: If you have complex conditions (e.g., central sleep apnoea, severe COPD, neuromuscular disease) you may need a more advanced ventilator style or specialist machine.
