or

Hi richard007,
Welcome to the forum.
Either machine you have listed would be an excellent choice. Here are some prior posts along the same line of questions.

Except for some relatively minor issues, I love my Airsense 10 Autoset. If you end up getting rainout even with the ClimateLine heated hose, as I sometimes do because I like to sleep in a cold room, that can cause a number of different issues, particularly with data recording. Other than that, though, it is a great machine - comfortable, and easy to use and optimize settings.

I had the same choice, I went with the dreamstation because it had a longer warranty. It's an excellent machine, but one big caveat: they use a software here alot called sleepyhead, which does not work with the Dreamstation.
It comes with it's own software which is ok, but nowhere near as detailed as sleepyhead.
