Default Oxy concentrator question... Please

I found an INVACARE perfecto2, used for 450. Is that worth it?

That one is 5lmp 5 psi.

You can do better with a new unit from Salt city glass and have a 3 year warranty.

Look at the number of hours and see if there is a service log available. Invacare is probably the best brand for longetivity, but I have never paid more than $150 each for the 5 lpms. They do make them in 10s but they are very hard to find in the used equipment line.q

No, it will not fill the tanks without a separate compressor (called a Homefill).

Keep looking in the classifieds or Craigslist. Just be patient. There are many for sale that are pricey because as medical units, they are expensive, but eventually you will find some that are affordable.
