Default What brand O2 concentrator?

I'm running Lynx on tanked oxygen, but I have the opportunity to get a concentrator. I'm looking at a M-15.
I see comparable units by Unlimited Oxygen, sold thru Wale Apparatus, and another by Extreme Oxygen, sold thru various retailers. Both have comparable prices, more or less.

Anyone know if the quality is comparable. I admit, I'm leaning toward the unit at wale.

Or you can hunt around craigslist for something like a Platinum 10 for a fraction of the cost of a Regalia, if you live in a big city. My last one was $80 and the one before that was $200.

That'd be Kimberly at Pyronamix http://www.pyronamix.com/ She's an expert on oxycons particularly with GTT torches. I got my Regalia from her. I love my Regalia Her customer service is outstanding. In addition to the Regalia, she also works with a supplier of reconditioned medical units.

I got one of the scratch & dent Ex-15's at ABR and I love it. Can't find a single scratch or dent on it and it was cheaper than anyone else.

Guess that's better than the 'GTT Wife'. Sorry, Kimberly.

I have an M-15 and an EX-15 they are from different companies but are identical machines in looks and function. I have never tested either one for purity so can't tell you the difference on that. Both machines work very well.
