This humidifier has provided relief from my winter-dry skin. It is so easy to use, I recommend using distilled water in it. The unit is powerful but not too bulky.

We've had this humidifier for approximately one month and so far it has operated as advertised. We purchased it hoping for a better night's sleep and we feel there has been a noticeable improvement. Besides the ease of use and quiet operation we've experienced another unexpected but pleasing development, my husband and our dog have virtually stopped snoring, lol. So it is quite understandable that I would give this humidifier a 5 star rating. We feel this has been an excellent choice as it has met all of our expectations and then some. Attached is picture of our non snoring dog enjoying our Honeywell humidifier.

I Have Had The Unit for A Little Over 30 Days Now. It Does Work Allowing Me To Sleep Comfortably Thru The Night. It Is Whisper Quite At Night While Sleeping (on low speed). Seems To Provide Enough Moisture In My 11 x 11 Size Room. I Turn It On Every Night Before Going To Bed And Then Turn It Off When I Get Up In The Morning. The Full 1Gallon Tank Will Last Me Three Days If I Turn It Off In The Morning, Otherwise It Will Need To Be Refilled Every Night. I Have A Lot Of Wooden Bedroom Furniture That Is Not Affected By The Moisture Output Of The Unit. What Would Make This A Finominal Product Is If It Had A Larger Capacity Tank And A Remote Humidity Sensor To Turn It Off When The Humidity Set Point Is Reached To Increase Efficintcy And Save Water. I Use Bottled Water To Reduce Maintenance On The Unit. Doing This a reduces Scale And Cleaning. It Also Helps To Reduce Dust In The Air While Operating.

This humidifier works well for a 15 x 16 room. It keeps the humidity at 44 to 45% when the temp outside is in the high 20ies and set on medium. If outside temps are in the low teens or colder, then the humidifier on high cannot keep the humidity above 42 to 43%. It is very easy to clean and it does not seem to produce white dust and I have hard water. I fill it once in the morning and again before I go to bed at night, and I flip the filter every time I fill it as the top seems to dry out a little. I also soak the filter in white vinegar once a week to keep it clean and white. The humidifier has three settings and on high I don't find the fan annoyingly loud. On medium I don't notice it. What I do notice is the difference it makes in the room. My hands, skin and hair are not dry anymore. The room is much more comfortable and my hardwood floors seem to have less shrinkage. I choose this humidifier over the ultrasonic because you do not need to use distilled water and it does not release particle into the air, so the air is healthier to breathe. I've had the humidifier for a month and I would definitely buy this one again.

So far so good
Very easy to set up, pretty much ready to go right out of the box. Wish it came with an extra filter. Filter does get hard/crusty quickly, but according to the directions it's good for up to 60 days. You have to flip the filter every day to help keep it moist. VERY quiet in the 2 lower settings. The high setting is a little bit noisier, but it's a "white noise" noise, so it's great if you want to drown out other sound! The "germ-free" name is a little misleading. I thought (without really reading into it) that it would purify the AIR in my home. That's not what "germ-free" is referring to in this case. It has a special light bulb that kills germs in the WATER that you add to the humidifier. So the WATER is "germ-free" when it's expelled as a mist. I wasn't all that concerned with the water being germ-free...

This vaporizer works by blowing air across a wetted filter element. It won't super saturate the air with moisture, but does not produce the white powdery residue common with the ultrasonic or steam vaporizers.

I do like the fact that this is germ-free what I don't like about it is it doesn't have an automatic shut-off and it seems to go through the water pretty quickly if you're not watching it a couple times a day the WIC will dry out I was just disappointed cuz I didn't the humidity where i thought it shold be for the size of miroom it was being used in.

Response from Manufacturer Tech SupportMay 2, 2019
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that it didn't meet your expectations and we will share your suggestion of an auto shut-off with our design team. The fact that the humidifier went through water quickly can be a good sign--this humidifier has a large tank, so it means that the humidifier was putting a lot of moisture into the air quickly. If it didn't feel that way, we would like to learn more so that we can help. Please email us at SocialSupport@kaz.com HoneywellSupportTechnician

I chose this humidifier as it was recommended by the NY Times "Wirecutters" column and they reviewed and tested a LOT more than I could have possibly found out reading random reviews. I'm happy I chose it. It does an excellent job and it's quiet. I'll probably buy another for another area of the house.

Super quiet at the lowest setting, the water container is easy to fill. I haven't timed how long the water lasts because I don't have it run for long periods of time. The cool mist makes the room just a bit colder, I think.
