My order from Amazon for an oxygen concentrator was cancelled today...none available on Amazon at all.  I guess they are all making Vents now!

Well I tried!

Can you buy a second hand one locally?

Those who got it wrong, for whatever reason, may feel defensive and retrench into a position that doesn’t accord with the facts.

I don't buy anything second hand...just my way.  I really only need one if I get sick and I am totally SIP and my accountant is sending my taxes back via mail.  I don't touch my mail without gloves and only after a couple of days in the back of my car.  So I really hope I will not need one if I just stay in my home and don't expose myself to anyone.


I just wonder if these companies are making vents and/or they sold out of the product.

You may have nailed it, FluMom. With the shortages of equipment we’ve seeing in the hospitals, there’s a good chance that they’re retooling or diverting them to healthcare facilities.

I'm glad I got mine, I had ordered one about 3 or 4 weeks ago  and it came in a couple of days. We have an Amazon distribution center in our state, so it usually gets here pretty quick.
