My one gripe is that, due to the small tank, you can run out of water and it does not shut off. A low level shutoff switch would take care of this but there is not one. When the unit runs out of water, the filter dries out and turns brown. The filter is supposed to last for a year (or a season of use) but the drying out limits its effectiveness.

I am very happy with my purchase. I bought this to replace my ultrasonic humidifier Crane Penguin EE-865 that was setting of my fire alarms (otherwise it worked well). The Honeywell is VERY quiet on the lowest setting. The water tank is smaller than on other humidifiers I owned, but it is light to carry when full and easy to refill. It is also easy to clean. The humidifier is recommended by Consumer Reports and according to them it has an excellent output and is very efficient. My only complaint is that it does not have an automatic shut-off with a humidistat. I would be willing to pay a bit more to have this feature. The humidifier has a small UV lamp (inside the housing not visible in normal operation) that is supposed to kill germs in the water which is also a bonus. Black version of this humidifier is harder to find online and a bit more expensive but it is very stylish looking.
