Hi Lisa @techi I have the Dreamstation with humidifier. The doctor at Mayo recommended it because it has an auto ramp up feature. The machine is set to start at 8 and go to 18. If the 8 is too much to get to sleep there is a ramp up button which drops it to 4 for 15 minutes. You can adjust the ramp time yourself. I changed mine to 20 minutes. Here are a couple of links:
