Bright Minds on Your Side

To this day, I still remember the confusion, fear, and uncertainty I felt upon discovering that I actually stopped breathing frequently during sleep. I figured it was probably wise to reach out to fellow OSA sufferers for that simple reassurance that sleep apnea is manageable and is not as scary as once thought…

 That was how WellAwareSystems was born.

The WellAwareSytems Mission

Once your doctor gives you a prescription for a CPAP machine for your treatment, you’ve got another headache coming your way. There are too many brands and models out there that deciding which works for you is confusing. As fellow sufferers, our team members have made countless buying mistakes when choosing our first CPAP device such as going for a very expensive model when one does not really need all its high-end features or going for a model that does not deliver the comfortable treatment you deserve.
 
That is where our team comes in. At WellAwareSystem, it is our mission to help you figure out the best CPAP machines for your specific needs. Our site owner has vast experience in plastic products, medical devices and product engineering experience, along with years of suffering from OSA condition – we are well positioned to offer our advise and expertise. 
 
In this site, you’ll find CPAP machine reviews as well as buying guides to help you make an intelligent buying decision. We’ve also included pros and cons for each of the high-quality options we covered in our articles to give you a better understanding of each product.
