Let’s face it: our trusty CPAPs work hard to help us breathe easy every night. But like any hard-working companion, sometimes they need a little TLC (and maybe even an upgrade). If you’ve been wondering whether it’s time to give your CPAP setup a refresh, take our quick and funny quiz to find out!
Ready? Grab your coffee, put on your best “quiz show” face, and let’s dive in!
Question 1: When you wake up and look in the mirror, your face…
- A) Looks fresh as a daisy, ready to take on the world.
- B) Has slight mask lines, but you’re used to it. Battle scars!
- C) Has what looks like the world’s worst pillow imprint—but oh wait, that’s actually your mask!
If you chose C: It might be time for a mask upgrade! Those deep imprints could mean your mask is wearing out or doesn’t fit as well as it used to.
Question 2: Your CPAP machine sounds like…
- A) A gentle white noise that lulls you to sleep.
- B) A mild hum, with the occasional burp here and there.
- C) A mini vacuum cleaner. It’s so loud that even your pet gives you the side-eye.
If you chose C: Time to look into a quieter, more advanced model. Modern CPAPs are designed to be whisper-quiet, unlike the jet engine by your bedside.
Question 3: How does your CPAP tubing feel?
- A) Smooth and flexible, like the day you got it.
- B) A bit worn out, but still functional.
- C) So stiff, it could double as a hula hoop in a pinch.
If you chose C: You may want to invest in new tubing! Over time, tubing can harden or crack, leading to air leaks (and yes, hula hoops are meant to stay outside of the bedroom).
Question 4: When was the last time you tried a new mask style?
- A) Recently—I like to keep things fresh!
- B) A while ago, but my current mask is doing the job.
- C) New mask style? I’m still using the same mask from 2015!
If you chose C: CPAP mask technology has come a long way! New masks offer more comfort, lighter materials, and innovative designs. Treat yourself to an upgrade and see the difference.
Question 5: Your CPAP maintenance routine is…
- A) Like clockwork! I’m on top of cleaning and replacing parts.
- B) Pretty decent; I clean it now and then.
- C) Wait, you’re supposed to clean it? 😳
If you chose C: If maintenance hasn’t been a priority, it’s possible your CPAP is suffering for it. Consider starting fresh with a new machine and committing to a simple cleaning routine.
