> 3 dayWe have three of these in our house. We live in the desert where the average summer humidity is only 20%. The pluses are: 1) Large capacity. Runs about 15-18 hours on a fill. 2) Very easy to fill with top opening flap. Fits easily in the kitchen sink and fill from the tap. Much faster and easier than using pitchers. 3) Virtually silent. Never notice any noise. 4) Black color is less obtrusive. The negatives mostly relate to the controls: 1) The touch switch is erratic. May require multiple touches to activate. 2) For the first week or so, I thought there was no indicator for which of the three power levels is selected. Actually, there is a blue LED behind each label, but they are so dim as to be unnoticeable. Barely visible, even in a dark room. 3) On the other hand, there is a very bright blue light illuminating the water container. Thats useless and can be annoying. 4) You can turn off the light for sleep mode, but its tricky to do because of the finicky touch switch. 5) When you lift the water container off the base to fill it, you may get substantial dripping from the bottom of the container as you carry it to your water supply. Theres less dripping if the container is empty and if you turn off the humidifier before lifting the container. I use a kitchen towel under the container when carrying it. Overall, the main point is that this humidifier works great and is mostly very easy to use. Get used to the little design quirks and enjoy a more comfortable environment.

> 3 dayI love this thing! I purchased it for allergy season for the bedroom and I’m not disappointed. It’s super quiet and makes breathing during sleep so much better and no coughing all night. It uses about 3 gallons of water a week running 7 days and about 6 hours a night. Well worth the money to me.

> 3 dayI live in a dry area and I use a humidifier all night, every night. Ive tried many different machines over the years. Although this particular humidifier isnt perfect, its definitely one of the better ones. It has many features that are very nice. There are three different settings that determine how much mist is going to come out. Its easy to switch between them with the light tap of a button. With a little experimentation, youll quickly find the setting thats right for you. The humidifier has a night mode which is perfect for sleepers who are sensitive to light. During night mode there is no light coming from the humidifier whatsoever. It also runs quite silently, so it wont wake you with noise either. Another feature I appreciate is that you can refill it from the top. You dont have to haul this appliance to the sink and unscrew it from the bottom, as is the case with many other humidifiers. With this one you just open the little flap at the top, and pour in fresh water as needed. Thats such a time saver! On the downside, the humidifier does have its faults. The main problem is that its very water sensitive. This is an odd thing for a machine thats constantly full of water. If its base gets wet by being immersed in water or having water spilled on it, it will most likely stop functioning permanently. If this happens, the humidifier will flash a red light and make a miserable droning sound. At that point, you might as well give up. The other fault Ive found with this machine is that it does wear down over time. As does, it gets louder. Eventually it doesnt run silently anymore, and instead emits a dull hum. Ive owned a couple of these humidifiers now, and while theyre in top condition, theyre wonderful. Unfortunately, they only last about a year or two if you use them every night.

> 3 dayI have 3 of these and one is used all day for me elderly father. His continued to have the low water red light come on and leak from the base. I wish there was a way to get help to replace the faulty base as the other two work fine.

> 3 dayThis product is amazing! I don’t know if it is because i have only been exposed to the Vicks brand humidifier at martmart. But this has great capacity and really puts out the moisture at each level. It has 3 settings and I ran it on low with a full tank for almost 2 days without refilling. The auto-off feature worked flawlessly. It’s not very noisy at all (whisper quiet) and has a very reasonable footprint too, not too big and bulky and looked really nice setup. It was pretty easy to clean even with my oversized hands. I just wiped out the inside of the tank with a rag. I wish I could have gave it 4.5 stars, but the only limitations I found were: 1. I really wish it had an auto-on feature so I could use a timer with it. Once this is off the only way to turn it on is by physically pressing the power button. 2. Occasionally, when I would try to press the power button it wouldn’t read my touch. I should mention its not so much a “button” you press, but a spot on the plastic that senses your finger and turns on. Maybe my finger was wet or cold, but sometimes it took a few attempts to turn it on. Not a huge deal, but it was a thing. There is also foam disk included around the output for adding essential oils and fragrance, but I never tried it. There are replacement disks included as well if you want a few different smells; at least I suppose that’s what they were for. As long as you are not looking for auto-on functionality, I think you will love this humidifier.

> 3 dayI purchased this product on March 13, 2023 and had it running 24 hours a day for one month until I put it away for the season. It ran fine the whole time. I purchased a second one two weeks later. Has three settings so you can adjust the output and on the high setting puts out a lot of mist. It’s completely silent. Love that it’s easy to refill from a swing open lid on the top versus another brand I have where you have to remove the tank to refill it. I did use water filtered through our reverse osmosis filter the whole time. Not sure if that makes a difference on how well it operated.

> 3 dayI really liked this humidifier but after 6 months the tank cracked. I was able to fix with marine tape which gave me 8 more months. Now it’s leaking from someplace and I have to toss it.
