    Good size unit, that is overall quiet. My reason for 3 stars is right out of the box and filled with distilled water it will only run on the low setting. If I turn it on high then the unit acts like it isn’t filled with water and automatically turns off. No matter if I turn it off, clean it or any other trouble shooting it will not run on high setting.

    It seems to be working fine. Not noisy at all. The only thing that I'm not happy about is the amount of water it holds. I need to refill it everyday or after about 8 hours on high.

    Used about 4 times and could never get rid of the burning plastic smell. Even with essential oil the smell eas still pretty powerful. It is well made, but only have used for limited time cant speak up on its durability. Also not a fan of the warm mist much rather the cool mist, but that is not reflected in the 2 star rating as that is personal preference and not an issue it self with the product.

    My room humidity in winter was about 10-15% without the humidifier. Turning this on to Max only raised the room humidity to 20-30%, which is still much lower than the ideal 40-60%. My room size (a studio apartment) is about 350 sq ft. I found it much easier to just boil a pot of water on the stove. However, the build quality was good and this device was designed to be dissembled cleaned easily. If you have a smaller size area this might work for you.

    Worked great for 1 month but then began to make a loud noise. Possible salt buildup, as i have a water softner, however, it wouldn't be cost effective to constantly use distilled water.

    Does an OK Job... Meh

    Not thrilled with it. Does an OK job of humidifying the air. But does not spread humidity evenly throughout the room. Uses heat to make steam. Would prefer vibration to vaporize the water. Needs better fan to spread the humidity. Uses a lot of water on the high setting. I fill it with filtered water from the fridge door. The tank is too awkward to hold up to the fridge door to refill.

    The humidifier is for very small rooms. The product also didn’t work the best with keeping my game room from having humidity and i would still have static pick up on my couch and on my PC, which was frustrating.

    Works well, leaks from time to time. Make sure you do not set it on hardwood floors. I keep mine in a shallow pan. I would spend the extra few bucks for an automated one that regulates humidity. I have one and works way better

    There were parts missing so I returned it. That is why three stars. I really would have liked to keep it. It is hard to answer all those addiditional required questions because I never used it, so I will just do it in the middle.

    It a warm mist humidifier. It only has two settings, so don't expect to adjust it much. It does have a reservoir to put essential oils, but I don't think it's the way to diffuse it. It is fairly inexpensive if you only need it for a few weeks each year.
