Eliminate Tangles CPAP Hose Holder

Shortly after my SO was prescribed an ASV machine for sleep apnea and watching him try to rig up various supports for the hose, I realized he would need something like this hose holder. He was skeptical at first but after the first night of not having the hose get under his face, wrapped around the pillow, etc, he was convinced and considers it an essential part of his sleep routine for over a year now. It works with our 14 inch mattress, our 17 inch mattress, hotel mattresses and we use a thin piece of board to hold it still under our camping air mattress. As others have said, it works best at the head of the bed between the mattress and a wall or headboard. The stand itself is made of fairly strong metal tubes that are flanged on one end to fit together. The tubes originally had a piece of elastic cord running through them to keep tension when assembled and to allow you to disassemble and fold it up (kind of like a tent pole). But the elastic wore out and broke after about 6 months and we never bothered to replace it as the stand is still in great shape and stays together without it. I tied a knot in a hair tie to replace the loop at the top that holds the hose and that is working fine on its own. I highly recommend this stand to anyone who uses CPAP, BiPAP, ASV, or whatever else has a hose that gets in the way while sleeping.

I got a cpap machine and kept waking up and having to move the hose around. I felt like I needed something to hold it out the way and searched on Amazon. This one got really good reviews. It's really helped so much. I put it at the top of my bed behind my headboard. Really use to set-up. Takes a little playing around with to figure out how much hose to pull through but it's so helpful. I move around in my sleep and never had an issue turning over or anything. The mask I use has a swivel piece so that probably helps too. I did put it between my mattress and headboard at first but it kept banging against my metal headboard every time I moved. Once I moved it, everything was great. The loop holds the hose really well but still allows some pull so the mask doesn't pull on your face too much. Definitely recommend trying it!

Y'all. Holy moly. The first night I used it was the first REAL full night of restful uninterrupted sleep I have had in probably 10 years. I should have listened to the review on another CPAP accessory that said the best product he bought to help with CPAP effectiveness was THIS HOSE HOLDER THINGY. 3 months in of using a CPAP and I had yet to totally sleep through the night. This hose holder was the exact thing I needed to make it more comfortable. + It takes the slight pressure that the weight of the hose has on my mask. I hated that feeling of the mask pushing down my upper lip (my mask is nasal only.) + The swivel of the contraption is silent and efficient + It breaks down into a nice flat package that fits right in the pocket of the travel case that came with my CPAP + It gives as close a feeling as possible to not having anything at all weighing down on my face. Absolutely no negatives. Great invention, great price, buy it.

If you are looking to help yourself w/ having to deal W/ your CPAP hose AND your covers to sleep.. this thing is for you.!! It ELIMINATES that fight. This allows the hose to dangle just right w/ flexibility and not yank it off your face while allowing you to just get that covers where you want them to sleep. This part gets 5 stars!!! The material it’s made from is not going to last more than 6-8 months AT BEST. It’s CHEAPLY made. The portability will be handy for travel… but it also allows for several weak points. 1 star for that. Even if your wife thinks it’s ugly and will turn your bed into a geriatric looking bed—- BUY IT ANYWAY…!!! It is the best help to a good nights sleep outside the CPAP itself..!!!

I am a new CPAP user. I had my CPAP for a couple of weeks and was having problems with the hose being wrapped around my neck from rolling over while asleep, and the mask being pulled when the hose connection would fall off the bed (since it is heavy). I still wasn't getting a great night's sleep. I decided I needed something to keep the hose above me while sleeping, but I'm such a new user that I didn't realize this was an item that existed. I was very glad to find this and I decided to try it out to see if it could help me. After using this item for a week, I believe this is something that should be offered mandatory for all CPAP users. I am able to roll around in bed without the hose wrapping around my neck, and I don't feel the mask being pulled off anymore. In fact, my air leakage has drastically reduced since using this holder. When I opened the package, I did think it seemed low quality. The metal pipes are thin and are threaded through with an elastic string to connect them--similar to collapsible tent poles. When I put it together, the top swung back and forth and did not seem sturdy. It turns out, having the ability to move with you while you are sleeping is exactly what I needed to keep the hose from wrapping around me. I put the holder against my headboard so it hangs directly above my head and it has not slipped out from under the mattress at all. It comes with a little drawstring bag to take with you when you travel. I am very happy with this purchase and I wish someone had told me this existed right when I got my CPAP. In my opinion it is an essential item! I'm sleeping well and feeling great thanks to this CPAP hose holder.

To flimsy, not well made, my advise would be Do Not Buy

I have been using this hose holder for about 9 months now and it still works great. I had trouble getting used to using a CPAP machine and disliked how the hose got in my way as I slept. If the holder ever broke, I would immediately get another one. This hose holder keeps the tube up and away from me, which is great because I seem to move a lot while I sleep. I am usually a side sleeper and this holder moves the hose out of the way so that it doesn't bother me. I also find that since I don't touch the hose, my mask shifts less while I sleep.

Worked better than expected. Just note that if you can't slide the base under/between mattresses, you might need something reasonably heavy to place on it to keep the structure from falling over.

When I installed it at first, I thought oh boy, this will get in my way and I will find it annoying. Having used it for 3 months now, not once has it been a problem and it does NOT get in the way. It can fold down to almost nothing for travel. The only thing I find is that, when placed in between the mattress and box spring, because there is no rubber or "grabby" material, it is very easy to slide around. Makes you think that it could fall out easily but has not yet and I move a lot when I sleep. Recommended.

This has been so helpful for me. I breathe easier & sleep better since using this. The cord attached to my CPAP is no longer in my way. It’s sturdy enough for my use; it has never left the head of my bed & I use it every night. I thoroughly recommend this product if you are using a CPAP machine.
