I was considering the ASpire until I qualified for oxygen supplement at night. I would have to be hooked to hoses anyway and the CPAP delivery is much nicer than the oxygen only. SIGH! I know nothing of how Aspire works so I have nothing to add on that front. As to adjusting to the CPAP.... I, after 10 months, have moved to BIPAP. BIPAP facilitates the oxygen supplement. Though not thoroughly adjusted, I am optimistic I will get there. The BIPAP breathes with you.

Sorry, Gloaming, this will be the first disagreement for us. I have several friends and acquaintances who put the CPAP on and had instant relief. I am jealous of them, but happy for them. But I have a great deal of compassion for those who struggle to adjust. I am a believer in the benefits and will keep at it for another 10 months. This morning I woke thinking "AT LAST I AM THERE!" Turns out the machine had turned itself off after 2.3 hours due to a leak and I was sleeping my usual sleep without the machine. (LOL).

@dalebout123 I can stand the disagreement, especially when people take the time to spell out why they disagree and it all adds up. We find the same thing over on apneaboard.com. Some people, for whatever reason beyond the bright bulbs on that site, simply cannot be helped via CPAP. It's really too bad because it works so wonderfully for a great many.
