Vicks Vapor Healing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Vicks Starry Night Cool Mist Humidifier is perfect for my son. He loves the starry night projection on his celling. He said it's like camping outside without the bugs. This Mom loves the scent pad that gives off soothing menthol vapors, great for that little cough and cold. It has different settings for maximum usage or minimal usage.

    The best ever
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this humidifier so so much. It’s that time of year where when the weather changes everyone gets those little colds. This helps with that so much. It even has a night light for the little ones too. And it comes with a Vicks pad to help as well.

        My little one loves this!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My little boy is in preschool this year, and we all know what that means---constant germs! It seems like he always has a stuffy nose or a slight cough. I had been using a small diffuser with essential oils that worked ok, but when he came down with an awful cough, we knew it was time to upgrade. This dehumidifier is awesome. Right out the box, my son was super excited about the star projections on the ceiling. They don't rotate, but they do change colors, and they provide just a little bit of an extra night light for little ones. The instructions were clear and we got the dehumidifier set up within a matter of minutes (there is also a helpful video set up guide on the product website!) The humidifier has two settings; a low, quiet sleep setting and a max setting; both setting produce very, very fine mist. We used the max setting as my son was recovering from his cold. Once he was better, we switched back to the quieter, sleep mode. Staying on all night, the tank will hold water for a few days as long as someone remembers to turn it off in the morning. Often, my son will forget to turn it off, and by the time I go in his room to check it, the humidifier has used up a good portion of the water inside. Obviously, the tank will deplete faster like this, but even in these instances, we've still only been filling the tank about every other day. We love how well this humidifier has worked for our little boy's room, and the star projections were just an added bonus to its functionality! I highly recommend this unit for parents looking to add a humidifier to their little one's nighttime routine!

          Soothing lights!
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier for a little over a mont in my kid room and so far is been great. The design to me is very modern and is just the perfect size for the room. I like the fact that it comes with a filter for an extra antimicrobial protection. The scented pad is awesome that scent when you turn on the humidifier fills the room with this eucalyptus scent that makes breathing easier. The tank was very easy to fill, I only use distilled water for it, I don’t want my hard water to ruin it, and yes I know the filter is taking care of the mineral in the water I just feel better using this water. The moon and stars projector is awesome, my kid love it, is so soothing to him because it changes color that he loves to fall asleep looking at them, and I love the fact that you can also turn just the projector without turning on the actual humidifier. The light project very clear on the wall and ceiling, in all colors. The actual humidifier has 2 setting, the Mac and the sleep mode, I will say the max one is very loud, the sleep one is ok, but I will for sure will love for it to be a little quieter, my kid doesn’t to like it at all in the max setting. I have mix feelings about the fact that you can’t see the most, is confusing to see if is actually working, but guess it is since my kid been coughing less and does not wakes up with a dry throat. I will also like to mention that the box shows a lot of information so you can very I form before buying the product. Cleaning instructions are very simple and I been cleaning it once a week with no problems or leaks. In my opinion is a good product and that I will recommend if you look for more than just a humidifier.

            Amazing
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this humidifier! And my son loves the lights! It’s very easy to use! The only thing I don’t like about it is the light on the knob stays on even in the sleep mode and I can not sleep with a light on so I wish it was able to be on with no lights of possible but can’t , the lights that shine from the top are dim on some colors but overall satisfying and very cool, I like the Vick’s refill pad sample it came with to put in I could really only smell it for the first 2 days I used it but great when sick that’s forsure ! The air that comes out is very cool and I like that about it when full of water it lasts about all day for us overall I recommend it ! Definitely helps with the heat through the winter

              Breathing Comfort
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to Vicks Starry Night Cool Mist Humidifier lastnight was the first good nights rest my grandsons has had in forever.My grandson suffers from Bronchitis and needs multiple nighttime medicines to help clear his airways,and yet still has trouble breathing.Vicks Cool Mist humidifier was able to unclog his airways,giving him a restful breathable night of sleep.He specially enjoyed the cool night light stars & moon projector feature.He no longer had to suffer throughout the night,and this feature gave him a comfort of safety.Super easy to use and came with an added Sleepytime VapoPad for extra soothing vapors,you can easily buy more at any of your local big stores or pharmacies.You have the chose to use them or not at your convenience.Very easy to clean,lightweight,and not overly baulky.So easy to use in pretty much any space,or even take with you when traveling,or at sleep overs.

                Works very nicely!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have astham, and quite a few of us in home, have allergies. I am really appreciating this humidifier. It's easy to use, and even full on, very quiet. It has 2 modes, sull on, and sleep mode. SLeep mode means the fan doesn't blow as hard. Full on isn't that loud, but if you have or are a finicky sleeper, th other mode is more quiet. I love the option of being able to add a Vicks vapor pad to the unit. You can use it without them. They included one with the unit, which I immediately used. I'm amazed how much you actually get delivered from such a small pad, via this unit. After seeing how well the pads work, I went online and ordered the menthol pads that even had lavender essential oil with them. I love that Vicks is making those also, now. I have been using it in my family room, and it fills the whole room, and beyond. The only negative was that we did not get any stars visual on our ceiling. The top does have a rotating color palette, which was pleasurable to look at though. I am very, very pleased with it. I received this to test, but all opinions are honest and my own.

                  Great humidifier
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had the Vick’s Starry Night Humidifier for about a month now and it could not be happier! My daughter was recently diagnosed with Bronchitis and Viral Pneumonitis and was needing to have a humidifier at night to breathe and our old one conked out. The features on the Vick’s Starry night is really great, my daughter loves the stars and how they change color and we appreciate the Vick’s Vapo pads to help open up her breathing as well as the cool mist it excretes. Overall it is a great working humidifier that helped her through her sickness!

                    Wonderful!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm thrilled with the Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier for several reasons. I like how quiet it is and you can use it with or without medications. It gave off a very fine cool mist using high-frequency sound vibrations that are safe. My kids loved the stars that it projects onto the ceiling at night. It provided relief from clogged noses and even came with a Vicks pad. With allergies, colds and the flu this product is a must have in any home!

                      Slept soundly through the night!
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As of now I have heaters running in every room but with that causes dryness and cold like symptoms. I finally decided it was time to try a humidifier. I already knew I had to try the" Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier" as the projector brings the stars to you. That is an excellent added feature and my favorite thing about this humidifier. Another thing I really like is it's lighter in weight and gives you the choice of adding vapors that will last throughout your sleep. Also there is a tutorial showing you how to set it up if you get confused with the directions. They made it fairly simple with just two settings which adjust to a large room or the lower setting made for sound sleeping. It's not to large or bulky and fit nicely on the corner of my nightstand. I also made sure to keep a good amount of distance so it wasn't directly on me and left if on the lower setting. I did have the heater on but it was at the other end of my room. I left it on all night watching the beautiful color change of the stars on my ceiling which really helped me gracefully fall asleep. In the morning I checked the water level and it was lower so I poured out the remaining and did a light cleaning and let if air dry until next use. I can see why this would be great for younger children but I must say that as an adult it helped me sleep through the night and wake up without all of the congestion or sore throat that I been dealing with. I absolutely love this humidifier for being durable but lightweight, easy set up, vapor addition, and not loud at all. I repeat not at all loud or noisy! Just make sure to thoroughly clean it regularly and there is a quick guide video showing the best way to do that. I choose to use distilled water just to be on the safe side and to help slow down the water buildup. I highly recommend this humidifier and give it beyond five stars!!!!!

                        My Kids Loved It!
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so glad that we had the Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier in our home this flu season. The flu made its way around our house over the last month and a half. Everyone has caught it. It started with my kids and ended with me and my husband. The humidifier helped every one of us so much. We pretty much all took turns using it. My kids loved the soothing color changing lights. My husband and I loved the VICKS VAPOPADS. I am certain that our flu sickness time was cut short using the humidifier. It helped us all get a great night’s sleep even though we were sick with the flu.

                          Great features!
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this about a month ago and have been using it off and on at night. Let me tell you, I can tell when I didn't have it on! The unit itself is compact, doesn't take up alot of space, it's quiet and looks cute too! Now, on to the important part, how good does it actually "work"? It works Amazing! We have gas heat, and anyone that does, knows how dry your nose can get! It doesn't happen with this thing running! I used the little vapor pad insert( you don't have to) and it smells so Good. Like eucalyptus! Slept like a baby! The tank filled up will last about 2 full night's before refill. The night light feature is sweet as well. Has 2 settings( max & sleep mode) I ran this one on Max! It's really a great product! Will purchase a couple more for the other bedrooms!

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier as a sample to review. The humidifier worked great and my son loved the stars. Also the humidifier was not big. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family.

                              Kids love it
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids get a sinus cold every yr around the winter time and I have been struggling to help relief them until now! This humidifier is amazing ! It’s super easy to use just fill the tank and place the Vick’s pad in the Slot that’s ment for it, then turn the knob to low or high. It has an automatic cut off so when it runs out of water it will not keep running so it will last a long time and not burn up from not having water ! Also the lights are great for a small night light it displays nicely on the ceiling for the kids to look at , this humidifier is quite and is almost completely silent! The lights have an option of being able to be turn on or turned off when not in use or not needed! If you stay in a humid dry area like I do this cool humidifier is a great choice especially when you have heat going in the winter to add moisture to the air in the room to help ease the cold ! My kids woke up less stuffy and felt a lot better after first use ! Even when not in use I still keep the lights on for the kids as a cute night light without running the humidifier! I don’t know what I did without one of these all this time !

                                Impressive!
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product really impressed me. It was very easy to set up, easy to fill. This seems to be of great quality and provides a decent mist flow. One of the best features is the spot for vicks vapor pads, this is great when a person is sick. The two settings is another plus, especially the sleep setting, it is very quiet. The filter seems to be of easy access which will make replacing it very simple. My most favorite feature is the starry night portion, having a night light is a bonus and this is fun for the grandchildren. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product, it really works well and does everything as stated. I highly recommend!

                                  Great for cold weather
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing I noticed with this is how big it is; it has a footprint of about 1 foot by 1 foot! The directions also say to only put it on a solid, waterproof surface because it could damage wood furniture. In my house that means it can only be placed in the bathrooms or kitchen because all of my other solid furniture is made of wood. I understand this because of how the machine is set up. There’s a tray that the filter sits in to suck up the water for dispersal. The tray is open and fed by the giant blue reservoir. It get filled quite high so I wouldn’t try to move it until after it is emptied of all the water since it could easily slosh out, even if you were to “carefully” relocate it to a new spot in the room/house. I went on a road trip and brought it with me to test in the hotels so I could try sleeping with it. After a week of continual use the filter is stained and has a slight smell to it. I do really like how quiet it runs. It has 2 modes for different room sizes; Max for large areas and Sleep Mode for small rooms. Sleep mode is also the quieter mode to be less distracting while people are sleeping. Sleep mode is almost silent, it still makes a slight humming noise but even my husband who is a really light sleeper was able to sleep through it. Max mode is still surprisingly quiet, I could hear it running but it was just background noise and not distracting, though I couldn’t sleep through the noise all night. On Max I did need to add water 2-3 times a day but the room was noticeably more humid within about 3 hours after first turning it on. My kids really like the light projector but to me it just seems to distract them from actually going to sleep. My oldest likes to call out the colors as it changes, my baby tried to reach for the lights. With the lights being so distracting I wish there was an automatic shut off so they would turn off after a while. You could probably spend time getting kids used to it by leaving the lights on all the time so the novelty of it wears off but to me that seems like too much effort. The light also has its own switch so you don’t have to run the humidifier for the light to work.

Great purchase

                                              I like the projector
                                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the concept of this humidifier. It serves it's basic purpose of creating moisture but also functions as a cool night light with the starry night projection feature. The humidifier has only two settings - Max and Sleep Mode. I wish there were High, Medium, Low options so I could choose from those since Max and Sleep Mode don't really mean anything to me. I don't use it on Max because all humidifiers I've used leak at the highest setting. I also don't place this on furniture so that any leaks don't cause damage. The capacity of the tank is quite large so one fill does last a while. The opening to fill water it also big and easy to fill up, although I don't like that I have to fill and then invert the tank to place onto the humidifier base. I wish the fill hole was located on the top so you don't have to fill and invert the tank. The unique thing about the humidifier is the projection feature, which I really like. It provides enough light without it being annoying and it's soothing to watch the colors change, plus you can use that independent of the humidifier function. There is also an insert for vapor pads which I don't personally use as much. Overall I think the humidifier portion is okay but what makes it stand out is the starry night light.

                                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m loving the Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier. I’ve had several in this past and this one is actually easy to carry while full. The packaging was easy. I hate the styrofoam you usually see. The option to use soothing Vick’s pads is nice and the coupons and sample appreciated! The lights are bright and change often and light up a good portion of the ceiling, but not too bright to interfere with sleep! I do think it’s a tad loud, like a blowing fan, but I prefer that to the constant burbling my old one did. I like it and my little guy thinks it looks like a cool robot!

                                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The light display makes this humidifier extra kid friendly and doubles as a night light of sorts. This is great for our dry, cold winters especially when my son is congested. I like that you can use the Vicks vapor patches in the machine. It comes with a lot of helpful info like flipping the filter to preserve it longer. Very easy to use and it gets the job done.

                                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got this Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier to help my Grand kids to be able to get a restful night of sleep when sick. The design is slim and compact, and does not take up a lot of space. The white and blue colors fit right in. Super easy to take out the box and set up. I washed mine with a mild soap and water first. It is so easy to fill the tank as it has a wide opening (that also makes it easy to clean). As stated, the mist is invisible and cool. You can adjust the fan in front from a little to a lot. The starry night projection is just super smart to add to comfort a sick child. The colors change. They are not super bright, but just a soothing dim light. The water in the tank lasts us about 3 nights as we use it on low. The Vicks pads are spot on for soothing air passages. We have had restful nights due to using the Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier. We actually run it every night, not just when one is sick.

                                                      Vicks starry night humidifier
                                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love love this humidifier! It's not only an amazing night light with stars on the ceiling but provides a soothing vapor mist to help with colds /asthma/allergies/winter dryness. It runs so quietly the baby and my husband sleep sound! Serves purpose of a humidifier but also a cute night light!

                                                          This works amazing
                                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My house tends to be very dry in the winter season anf it takes it toll on my families breathing and sore throats. I slept with this on my bedside stand and it was the best nights sleep ive got in forever. This thing is powerful and makes my air so much more cool and ventilated . it also allows you to put vick scented pads in it and it blows the scent to help clear out your throat and nasal cavities. It also has a starry light located on top that makes your room look like a starry night and helps put you right to sleep . i Defintley plan to purchase another one of these !

                                                            Best humidifier ever!!!
                                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive recently needed a humidifier because my kids have been getting colds,and allergies which have them very full of mucus and coughing alot. They havent been able to sleep right because of these symtoms. We found this one and it looked awesome! We loved the idea of having stars and a moon in their room, so we grabed this one. Since owning it, its been terrific! My kids mucus has cleared up, the coughs dont sound as dry and loud or painful, they arent as frequent either. That was only after two nights with the humidifier on. Which is crazy good in our case, my kids love it so much they tell everyone about the cool stars in their room. I love that the steam is invisible and it sounds like a low soothing fan. It has two different knobs one to put the stars on and the other for the humidifier,it also has a full volume setting and an over night one. Its also super easy to set up, even my six year old knows how to work it. We could not have had a better humidifier, we all recommend it!
