How much does a portable oxygen concentrator cost? Real price ranges, new and refurbished
Part of the series: The Complete Oxygen Concentrator GuideFrom our own catalog, today: portables from $1,995 new and $1,095 refurbished, home units from $649. What actually moves the price between models.
A new portable oxygen concentrator costs $1,995 to $3,200; refurbished portables start at $1,095. Stationary home units run $649 to $1,995 new, or $395 refurbished. Those are real prices from our current catalog, not estimates — new portables span OxyGo FIT and Drive iGo2 at $1,995 up to the Caire Eclipse 5 at $3,200, with the Caire FreeStyle Comfort at $2,995 between them.
What moves the price between portables isn't oxygen output — most pulse portables span similar setting ranges — it's engineering extras: continuous-flow capability (the Eclipse 5's $3,200 buys its 0.5–3 LPM continuous mode), weight class (sub-3-pound machines carry a premium per pound saved), battery architecture, and warranty length, which runs 3 to 5 years across our catalog.
Budget for the ecosystem, not just the machine: a second battery, a carrying case or backpack, and spare cannulas are near-universal first-month purchases for portable owners, and they add a few hundred dollars to a realistic total. On the stationary side the ecosystem cost is nearly zero — tubing and a backup cylinder — which widens the real price gap between the two classes beyond the sticker difference.
One structural note on pricing anywhere you shop: because these are prescription devices sold by regulated sellers, the sticker price is usually the price — this isn't a category with checkout-code discount culture. Our own version of that is literal: no insurance adjudication, no billing surprises later; the price on the product page is what you pay, and sale prices (like the iGo2's current $1,995 against its usual $2,295) are printed on the page itself.
