A coincidence that they followed the lead of ex-subsidiary Ekco into plastics!
My Wife had one of those face masks with an air pump to help with sleeping (only briefly, she didn't get on with it). As well as the apparatus itself, Philips handled the medical side, including the diagnosis, over the Internet. It was most certainly made to hospital standards.
