This bulb arrived broken. Considering how much it cost you would think a bit more care could have been taken with it. If I do not receive a replacement bulb that works I will never order from this company again.
The company is reshipping another bulb free of charge.
I will update my review upon receiving a working bulb.
Unbelievable.
The replacement bulb was also broken.
NEVER ORDERING FROM AGAIN.It must be good; it's still working. Not to expensive and I only plan on useing it for the winter season.

Reviews of Luma Comfort HC12W Cool Mist Vase Humidifier with Adjustable Height
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $169.99
Sale Price: $125.46
Today's Bonus: 26% Off

The styling is great. It really works we now own three. Easy to fill and it operates with ease. We have a least one running all day and all night.
The Good
This unit produces a lot of mist, definitely more than I initially expected. The literature says it will work in rooms up to 650 sqft or something like that, and I believe it.
The design is very cool. It doesn't look like any other humidifier I've ever seen although that's not saying much.
It comes with about 5 different/interchangeable pieces that can be used to change how tall the unit is. We use 2 of the pieces for a medium-sized look. I think the idea is to make it shorter if you want to put it on a shelf or table, or taller if you put it on the floor. Again, a very cool idea that I haven't seen before
Remote control included, which is the easiest and quickest way to control the thing (see below)
The bad
Controlling the unit without the remote takes much longer. There is just a single touch-screen area on the unit that turns it on, adjusts the settings up and then back down again. I know it's done for looks, but unfortunately you sometimes have to touch it over and over again to get to the setting you want. Luckily the remote helps
You have to push the adjustable pieces together firmly when changing the height, otherwise the seams are pretty visible. Not a big deal, but if you're a perfectionist it can bug you
Overall
I like this thing so far, and my wife loves it. It looks great, and works even better. We've been happy with this brand so far I reviewed one of their air coolers earlier this summer, and still love it so we'll definitely keep them in mind for appliances moving forward.
I used to wake up everyday with a dry, slightly sore throat and never thought much of it because it did go away in maybe and hour. Recently I got the flu and realized my throat always felt raw and would throb painfully when the ac came on. I finally put 2 and 2 together (duh)! The problem was the dryness... after trying to sleep with the windows open we bought the Luma Comfort HC12W Cool Mist Vase Humidifier.
As soon as it arrived I loved the way it looked... not like a small appliance, but like a work of art! We turned it on and were impressed by all the cool and refreshing vapor. We set it on the nightstand and used overnight on the lowest setting... by morning our things were soaked with water; how disappointing. We tried a few more nights, taking everything else out of the nightstand and putting bigger and bigger towels under it. All were still wet every morning.
It seemed to my husband and I that there wasn't much difference on the amount of steam at each setting and the water ran out in less than 3 nights (about 15 to 20 hours) so we thought maybe it was defective. We contacted Amazon for an exchange and they sent us a return label and another unit, no questions asked.
Now, it's great! There is a bigger difference in steam at each setting level and we use it on the low still. Other things are back on the nightstand and no towel is needed anymore. We only have to refill it about every 4 to 5 days. I wake up in the morning with no scratchiness, itchiness or soreness in my throat. I imagine we might put setting higher next time one of us is sick with a cold or flu and it will be ok if we have to put a towel under it then... I will post and update when that happens, hopefully it will be a long while.

These are used in my Enviracaire humidifier. They really grab the lime out of the water. They become all stiff with the calcium build up or lime, and I just grab another one to replace it.

The Sharper Image EV-HD15 Cool Mist Ultrasonic 1.6-Gallon Review
I recently purchased this humidifier at BBB and so far it is doing a good job. I wanted something that was quiet and didn't require replacement filters and I got it.
When adjusting the humidistat you can definitely see a change in the amount of mist on my machine. Many reviews talk about the demineralizing tablets and not knowing what to do with them. If you read the instruction manual it tells you at the end what to do with them. Fill your tank and drop them in. Depending if you have normal water you replace them every 3 months or so and if you have hard water they may need to be replaced more often.
If the light on the front of the machine is green you have enough water, if it turns red that means you need to add more water.
As far as the other reviews and the de-mineralization tablets, I didn't even read the instruction manual, I assumed it works like all other humidifiers and you just drop them in the tank. However, it would be nice for Sharper Image to tell you that (they do tell you this on the replacement pack tho).
Pro's: this device shoots mist high into the air with its vertical spout.
This is a quiet unit which can be filled with water and left alone for quite some time before needing a refill.
Important side note: the floatable filters that you drop separately into each tank need replacing after 30 to 40 fills.
This Sharper Image humidifier is the best I have ever owned. We bought it in November 2009 as humidifiers are recommended during pregnancy. This humidifier is super quiet. We leave it on all day in our family room and I can't hear it at all. With it being winter, we generally have it on the highest setting and yet we only have to refill it every other day. It has two tanks that last 36 hours. When it does run out of water, a red light shows and it shuts itself off. There is a night light on it. And it makes breathing so much easier my sinuses are great. I highly recommend it.
I did not like the fact that the unit was so bulky and had the vent directed upward only (my old unit had the mist coming out of the unit at about 45 degrees angle which I though was better). But I do like that it has two separate water compartments and no parts of the humidifier that can get damaged (oscilator, e.g.) are not accessible.
Overall, I am very satisfied and hope it will serve me long...

We purchased this about a week ago from BBB and so far we love it. It's worked perfectly, no issues, and it actually makes our rooms humid which is very hard to do in AZ. This is the 5th humidifier I've purchased in the last 4 years and it is by far my favorite. Also because it has two tanks, it can be running while you are re-filling which comes in handy if you need it on 24-7 and not just at night. It also doesn't make a sound. AND I'm sick of paying for and changing filters on all my other humidifiers. They are pure gross and filled with dust and bacteria.As far as the other reviews and the de-mineralization tablets, I didn't even read the instruction manual, I assumed it works like all other humidifiers and you just drop them in the tank. However, it would be nice for Sharper Image to tell you that (they do tell you this on the replacement pack tho).

This unit is truly function following form. My biggest complaint is that the two tanks leak after a few refill's before placing them back in the unit. Also the dial used to control the humidity level either produces a lot of humidity or none and its not very accurate.Pro's: this device shoots mist high into the air with its vertical spout.

I actually just purchased this humidifier (from BBB) after my year-old Venta Sonic broke down. I am positively surprised about how quiet it is. I quite do not understand other reviews saying that there is no instructions for the demineralization cartriges please see page 10 of the small booklet called Instruction Manual and Warranty Information...I did not like the fact that the unit was so bulky and had the vent directed upward only (my old unit had the mist coming out of the unit at about 45 degrees angle which I though was better).

Buy Austin Air Healthmate Air Purifers
I am very sensitive to chemicals. I give the HealthMate Plus credit for saving my life. With it in my home I can handle odors and chemicals from other apartments and the outside.
Mine has been thru neighbors painting, and remodeling. I did have a break down with it and the warranty was honored. They even put an emergency tag on the repair so it was repaired faster.
The newer ones are so much more quieter than the old ones. When I got mine back from the factory I was constantly putting my hand on it to see if it was running. It was just so quiet.
This is one of the first items that I recommend for a chemically sensitive person to buy.
When the box arrived all I had to do was lift the box off and plug it in. It was so well packed I was impressed.
We particularly like two additional features. First, the white noise on the high setting is perfect for a baby. Second the compact size fits well into our nursery without becoming a fixture in the room.

The unit works well but has some design flaws that could be added such as: a variable speed control to adjust the speed (sound) beyond just the three choices, the outlet could be adjustable so you could direct the flow of the air wiout moving the unit, the strength of the casing could be stronger so that if somene accidentially sits on it that would not be a problem (got kids?), and the manufacturing company could bother to answer their emails and cold write you back (which they don't) with a confirmation so that you *know* they have received your warranty registration online. I would buy the unit again and wanted another unit, but since the company did not answer back my emails when I had questions about an other use for an additional one I did not bother to buy the second one. So far I don't feel the manufacturer cares much about their customers and hope there will be no problems when I have to deal with them in the future.Best Deals for Austin Air Healthmate Air Purifers
After much research and debate, I decided to go with this purifier because it was an Austin that I could afford and it seemed like the Austin brand was the most reliable. I actually purchased the pink version because it was on sale and then spray painted it. It is great. The air in my bedroom smells much fresher, and the lowest setting is very quiet and not at all disturbing. It's easy to maintain and you don't have to worry about ion particles. I'm delighted that I purchased this and I would do it again.Honest reviews on Austin Air Healthmate Air Purifers

Cheap Boveda One Step EZ Humidor Seasoning Packet
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $5.99
Sale Price: $5.24
Today's Bonus: 13% Off

I liked the simplicity of using these for the seasoning process on my humidor. YOu simply oder the proper number of packets, drop them in and wait 14 days. The downside is the 14 day waiting period. For myself it was no problem since I was traveling extensively and could wait, but if you were in a hurry more traditional seasoning methods would have been much more effective and quicker.
One thing I learned from the cigar forums is that you can regenerate the Boveda packs when they're dried up. You can't soak them in water, but you put them in a humid environment such as suspending them above a pot of hot water for several hours. The Boveda folks don't advocate this practice, probably because it suppresses sales, but the cigar aficionados say it works great.

I have a couple of small, wooden humidors. For years I have been fighting a losing battle trying to keep my cigars fresh. A few months ago I received an expensive box of cigars as a gift and, true to form, they have gradually been getting dry after using those "pillow packs" that you dunk in distilled water. After reading on the subject in some online cigar forums I decided to take action! First of all I didn't know it was necessary to season a wooden humidor. I bought one 84% seasoning pack, a dozen of the 72% packs, and a digital hygrometer. I began with my Fireside Desktop humidor from Cigar.com. Throwing the hygrometer in there with my cigars and pillow packs showed the humidity was 45%. Dry as a box of Triscuits! I took the stale cigars out and put the 84% Boveda pack inside. After a week I took a quick peek at the hygrometer which read 65%. Today was Day 14 and I opened the lid. The Hygrometer indicated 69% humidity, just like the Boveda instructional video claims (68-70% after 14 days). Now I'm going to put my cigars inside with a couple of 72% packs, since they're so dry to start.One thing I learned from the cigar forums is that you can regenerate the Boveda packs when they're dried up.
