I decided to send my machine to Altra and hope it goes well. My suspicions turned out to be unfounded; I was notified immediately after my machine arrived, had my machine appraised, had an estimate sent the next day, and paid easily online. The repair was very quick and my machine was returned to me in perfect working condition a week later, the noise issue was completely gone. I totally recommend the Altra to anyone having issues with their machine. Very fast, professional and courteous service.read more

They told me it would take about 1-1/2 weeks, and they even post an estimated repair cost on their website. As soon as I got the machine back from ResMed, I sent it to Altra. Their process is simple and straightforward. The most complicated part is getting it to the UPS store, which is - well, not complicated. I got my receipt and repair estimate within a few days.

Hi my name is Jim and I live in a small town in Wisconsin and I never do reviews but feel...This time I need to let everyone know that they will love what Altra Professionals has to offer. I have a Resmed 10 car and it started wheezing so I contacted the company that sold it to me and they said they could fix it but it would take up to 2 months and they could rent me a machine until mine was It's fixed. Well, 4 months later, $379,00, I received my machine and when I opened it, the pressure was so high that I couldn't use the machine. Needless to say I felt cheated, the company said they were not sure why the machine did that. Not wanting to deal with them anymore, I found Altra Professionals online, I called them and a lady rep answered the phone and she was very polite and answered all my questions so I filled out the repair form and received my shipping label and mailed it to my machine. Within a week they sent me an estimate for the repair and said if I wanted it fixed all I needed to do was approve the repair, which I did and received an invoice the next morning with the cost of the repair and a secure site to pay, I'm glad they accept Paypal! I paid immediately and received my machine within a week, it works like brand new, it only took a total of two weeks to fix my machine, the repair work is covered by a 1 year warranty. They are a very professional and courteous company and I will be working with them on all my future repairs. Thanks Altra, Jamesread more

My machine has been leaking and malfunctioning for months, then the fan just stopped....I have emailed many companies that advertise that they repair CPAP machines and my model is listed as one of the machines they repair. I heard back from ASP almost immediately. Another company wrote back the next day. I decided to use ASP. The process of sending them my machine was easy. They notified me when my shipment was processed and provided a full estimate including gasket replacement. I responded immediately and paid for the service. Within a few days, they shipped it back to me, which took two days. I don't remember my machine being so quiet. here you go. I now know where to send my machine if I have any problems.

I have had a ResMed CPAP for about 6 years. The machine is not working properly and I...My supplier told me I would have to wait about 12 weeks for a new machine. This is totally untenable. My provider suggested I try Altra CPAP Repair. It did take four weeks, start to finish, to get the machine fixed and returned, but I received it yesterday afternoon and got my first full sleep in over 8 weeks. The motherboard on the machine failed and was expensive to repair, but I'd do it again in no time. All the people at Altra are helpful and professional. Great experience! ! !read more
