1 out of 5 stars Horrible product   November 19, 2008

We have owned two of these humidifiers. They were both totally unreliable. Do not purchase this product.

I have used this product for 4 winters, and and now starting on my 5th winter with this product. For the first 3 winters I used it every night, and last winter I used it 24 hours a day.

Obviously for the price you will get a pretty basic, simple product with no frills. However, if you maintain the product as instructed, you should get years of satisfactory use.

I did not clean off the heating element as often as I should have last winter. It gets very noisy after a while if you do not clean it. Granted, the thing is a pain to clean. I generally find myself hacking away at the mineral buildup with a butter knife. Vinegar also works but is smelly and you have to let it soak for a while.

I prefer this humidifier over the cool mist humidifiers (such as the cute animal ones at Target) because the steam that comes out is pure, and it is not prone to bacterial/mold buildup. Especially in my area, the tap water is so gross and smelly, a cool mist humidifier just stinks up the room.

A great buy for the price, but you have to do the maintenance!



3 out of 5 stars LOTS OF WORK!   September 3, 2008

I must say, at first I was very pleased with the product- quiet, looks nice, works well in the baby's room -- but after about 2 weeks it stopped working! Apparently it needs to be taken apart and cleaned daily!And even if you clean it daily, there is also weekly cleaning instructions and instructions for when you are going to leave it unused for a few days. The build up on the heating element is insane if you don't clean it as the directions instruct. It's a nice machine, but a lot of work!


1 out of 5 stars Hate this humidifier   August 8, 2008

I've had this humidifier for about 2 months. It shuts off in an hour and has to be reset. REALLY annoying.

The mist is strong, I do like that feature.

I love it. I wake up happy now. I live in Hawaii. But I got allergies. This keeps me waking up with a smile. I pour vinegar in it once a week. Clears all that gum out, takes 10 minutes how lazy can you be. No bacteria cause the thing boils the water. Seriously, a great humidifier, works in the bedroom overnight. Keeps you healthy if you need a bit more water in the air. Simple, easy design. ALOHA!
