This was a waste of money. The spray output doesn’t change nor does it heat up. Don’t waste your money. Go for the cheaper ones that you have to replace the filters. At least it won’t cost as much as this piece of junk.

Very very weak humidification even at the most powerful setting! The mist quickly descends to the floor instead of spreading through the room. You have to literally put your face near the snout to get any benefit from this product. Some descriptions say it is intended for rooms up to 400 sq. ft.; I would say it covers more like 4 square feet.
Elegant design, easy to set up and use, quiet operation etc, but…..

I bought this product at BJ’s Wholesale club and was very excited to use it. It was more expensive than other ultrasonic units, but I thought the bonus silver technology and heated humidity option justified the extra cost. The unit is an attractive unit and looks to be well constructed. The central tower does separate to allow cleaning of the ultrasound transducer, but this made replacing/removing the tank awkward since it tended to hang up on the tank.
There are two reasons for the negative rating. The first is that my product simply didn’t work. When turned on it sprayed a stream of water halfway up the tower, which then went back into the water. There was no mist produced and this was associated with a very bad and not easily describable/recognizable odor. There was a red sticker on the base that said if the unit failed to produce mist, turn it off, empty the base and try again. I did this 5 times and could never get it to work.
My second issue is that the instructions could be better. I could find no description of how the silver technology worked or if there are any distilled water requirements like most filterless ultrasonic humidifiers have.
I am sure that my unit was probably defective, but I make it a point not to get another unit if the first is defective as long as there is a reasonable alternative.

Good humidifier… work well all night long with timer on/off…and adjustable moister level.. The problem is the water tank. You need to be very careful holding on the tank up side down while refilling it and it cannot sit flat. Another thing is the handle. I still won’t find the way to lift it up with handle without separate the tank and the unit. I have to hold up the whole unit to the chest to move it around.

Great product compared to other humidifiers I’ve purchased in the past. Most impressive feature was not having a filter where mildew, mold, and other nasty stuff can accumulate. Nothing like having cleaner air to breath. I also love that you can program the unit to turn on and off as desired along with the amount of mist (3 stages). In addition, the unit can switch from cold mist or warm mist with a push of a button, no more having to buy two separate units. The only draw back I found was that the night light had only one setting (bright blue), no dimmer or multiple settings. All said, I am very pleased with this humidifier not to mention the peace of mind when it comes to air quality.
