How do you define your "Not Impressed" regarding the CCR2000...........What critcal process did you use to determine that the Inspiration is a better choice?...CCR2000 has it hands down on design, technology, capability, saftey.......also, it's application as you saw it was intended more for commercial/scientific application.......So, tell me, how do you make your comparision?....What are your guidelines?...Just becuase Inspiration is being produced does not suggest that it is the best unit available.....Service, Training, available Parts are important...I do agree with you here......I've seen both units side by side.......Honestly, apples to apples, and making a "Hands On" assessment both units, and not from a Trade Show/website viewpoint.The Inspiration does not come anywhere close to the CCR2000 from the standpoint of Design, Engineering excellence, technology integration, performance, efficiency, and most importantly SAFETY.......One should be careful while making opininated staements about life support equipment...You must look at the real facts that are obviuos, objective, and critical to making the "RIGHT" decision of what to place on your back that will ultimately support your life to the highest degree possible.
