Humidifiers Reviews

We've taken this humidifier out on occasion when there are a few stuffy noses and it just feels too dry in the house. It's large enough to take care of any one of our rooms, including our 20x16 living room that opens into a foyer. Within about an hour there's a big difference.

The filter has been gradually getting darker, but according to the picture we've only used half its life, and we've run the humidifier about 20 times (say for an average of 4 hours each time). I also like cool mist humidifiers because the machine itself doesn't have to be sanitized.

Despite the word "quiet" that appears on the packaging, this humidifier is anything but. Although it did succeed in raising the humidity from "arid" to the "comfort zone" during the daytime, it was far too loud to get a good night's rest.
The design is also awkward to refill. The base is wide and difficult to carry with a full reservoir from the bathroom to bedroom, and the top needs to be carefully aligned over the base to avoid squashing the flimsy wick.
We replaced it with an ultrasonic unit that is nearly silent and delivers twice the humidity.

This is not a quiet product, not very effective to add moisture to your room, and you have to keep buying filters in the future in order for it to work.
