I bought this humidifier for my girlfriend yesterday. She has a history of sinus problems in the evening. We turned this humidifier on for the first time, and VOILA! …no sniffing. We both couldn’t believe it! She likes the way you can adjust the humidity level. Her favorite level is 55% humidity. Once we set it… we’re good to go! Personally I like how quiet the unit is when it’s set to “quiet mist”. Needless to say, we both recommend you buy this product… 5 stars!

I like it. It succeeded in preventing my large bedroom from getting dry and damaging my skin and sleep this winter! This was the purpose and it served this purpose well.
Over the years I have tried many humidifiers and while this is not the most powerful, but, it is also simple and easy to use and so far works very well. It doesn’t leave dampness on the floor and I love the Humidity % rating. I am not sure how sophisticated the humity measurement is, but I do feel it when the % is low and then after awhile when it is less dry in the room.
I think it is good for a medium to large room – maybe up to 300-400 Sq Ft.

If you’re looking for a no nonsense, simple, cold water humidifier that is easy to use, clean, and maintain, this is it.

I cleaned the unit every day and filled it with water run through a very good quality countertop filter. Even doing this, I went through two $11 filters per WEEK (TWENTY-FOUR TIMES as many filters as stated by the manufacturer!), and simply couldn’t afford to spend nearly $90 a month (just in filters!) to run a humidifier. That is, putting it simply, absolutely insane. Design is faulty — filtered water shouldn’t trash a brand-new filter in less than four days. I don’t know anyone who could afford $90 a month for humidifier filters.

Have had this humidifier for a full season last year and just broke it out for use this year.
Pros: 1) Quiet setting is really quiet. 2) You can set the humidity level – which is important to us because my husband stores camera equipment and such in the same room as the humidifer. 3) Seems to work efficiently – does the job.
Cons: 1) The filters are way too expensive 2) As others have mentioned, the filters don’t seem to last as long as they say, even with cleaning, etc.
However, we did find that using a bacteriostatic solution in the water does seem to inhibit the mold/dead rat smell thing from happening quite so fast. This is the stuff you can buy in the store – usually in a 32 oz bottle – that you can add about a 1/2 oz to the water when you refill. Amazon carries it as well at a reasonable price. It holds down the bacteria growth and, in my experience, lengthened the life of the filter considerably. Last season we went through about 4 – 5 filters over about 5 months but we didn’t start using the bacteriostat until about 1/2 way through the season.
Would I buy this one again? Maybe. I’m going to see how the filter consumption goes this year.
