So far, after a month of frequent use works great! I hated to spend $50+. I purchased and really loved the AromaSens Ultrasonic Diffuser from Puritan on sale for $39, but after 6-8 months it sputtered water, so I had to put it on a towel, and sometimes did not turn off. Then it died, so it was a waste of money and now sells everywhere for more than the BriteLeafs. This little diffuser takes fewer drops of essential oil to get the aroma needed for therapeutic aromatherapy, and the water lasts longer. It is easy to handle: the base clicks in so when you pick it up it doesn't come apart and spill. The directions were poorly translated but it's easy to figure out. Hold the "mist" button until it beeps on, press it to see the light move to the 30, 60, 120, or 180 min timer. I've tried all settings and it turns off at the right time. Second button is for the colored light, which has a bright and dim feature, great options, pleasant colors; I prefer to have the light off most of the time, so it's great to have that option. I don't see it sold anywhere else. I think the pictures make it look a little cheapy, but it's better when you see it in person. I'm buying a second for my massage therapy studio.

As mentioned in the title, this was my first diffuser. So I'm no expert. That said, it didn't meet my expectations. I expected it to diffuse the air in a small room in my place with the scent of eucalyptus oil. I tried multiple times with different amounts of water and oil and it never really produced any scent. The only time I could smell anything is if I went right up to the small opening where the mist was coming out of. I think that's unacceptable. I ended up returning it.

I've used four different cool diffusers and this one is the best. I've had my first for over a year with no problems. Purchased two more last month. Great product! And it looks good too.

For those who are new to ultrasonics, WHITE MIST! All ultrasonic humidifiers atomize the water with the calcium included in the mist (or sodium with softened water). Many make attempts to pre-filter the water to prevent this, but all have failed. This calcium mist gets everywhere and eventually creates a white dust-like covering on everything.

So knowing this, if you spend long time periods in dry hotels, this is for you. Quiet, easy to use and let the maid clean up the mess. :-)

Nice humidifier. Puts out lots of cool mist or not...it's up to you to regulate the amount of moisture you want to put out. Good idea on the water filter purifier incorporated in the cool mist.

I've tried a lot of types of humidifiers for my 30 ct, $40 wooden cigar box. This open stone, low cost, device seems to hold my % humidity between 65-70 percent more reliably than other more expensive items I've tried.

Here's Why:

My low cost humidor was Very difficult to season. And being able to oversaturate this stone helped maintain the humidity level. The bags and pillows just wouldn't keep up.

If I only use distilled water this remains usable for months, and months.

I found that even after seasoning the box, the pouches and pillows couldn't keep up with how often I open the lid (up to twice a day). I did have success with pillows and pouches when I left the lid down for at least a week at a time.

I like these because I can vary the water amount to compensate for differences in humidity levels easily and quickly. You can't throw it in an forget it, but it doesn't cost a fortune either.

I bought a few of these for 2 humidors I keep only partially stocked. My joe-brand ones had quit helping out long ago and you can really tell the difference when your humidifiers are putting out the right amount of water. The junky ones these replaced wouldn't hold 1/2 the water, so now I'm doing a lot less maintenance and the humidity is right where it should be.

These work well and are priced right. Be careful not to overfill and if you are using vertically on the side of your humidor, make sure to hold vertically over a sink after filling to make sure that excess liquid has soaked in and does not run out. You don't want to warp your humidor.

i read a lot about cheap chinese humidors and how they're not worth their lower price and you should spend 5 to 10 times as much to get a nice one from a cigar shop. bull hockey.

this humidor has held it's humidity for years and has been responsible for maintaining cigars that are almost as expensive as it is.

there are cheap knock offs out there that don't seal properly or work, and those all wood (this one has a pressed wood bottom) humidors that cost a lot more look nicer, but this is an affordable humidor that holds a decent capacity of cigars and has a removable key. it looks very nice and since it doesn't have a glass top it doesn't suffer from temp/humidity swings as much as other ones in this price range do.

I've had this for at least six months now and it is a beautiful and effective humidor. Fit and finish are great. When you shut it you can feel the pressure as you close it, indicating a tight seal.

Follow the directions for seasoning itthe wood will take on a lot of water. Also, I buy cigars online and they often are fairly dry. I find that putting a small cup with about 1/4 inch of distilled water in it provides enough extra moisture to humidify the cigars and allow you to reach 70%; just take the open water out once you reach a stable level of humidity around 70%.

I replaced the analog dial hygrometer with a digital one because it is easier to read, but I'm sure the original would have worked fine. I also do not use the built-in well for water, but use a separate one with a better absorbant.

I bought this for my first Humidor and it hasn't disappointed. It's well built and I really like the dividers. I wouldn't put much stock in the hygrometer, as most non-digital hygrometers rarely work. If you're looking for a good desktop humidor; your search should stop here...

Honest reviews on Quality Importers Milano 75-100 Cigar Humidor, Rosewood

I love cigars. I've been having such a hard time deciding which humidor to buy to replace the one I have that doesn't hold humidity well. The ones I really wanted were upward of $150 and I just couldn't pull the trigger. I finally decided to buy one that would just "meet my basic needs" meaning it had good reviews and was the right size. I also wanted one that did not have a glass top as I think they don't hold humidity as well. I decided on this model and didn't have any great expectations, but when it arrived it was much bigger than I thought it would be and the fit and finish especially on the inside was fantastic. It is a very solid humidor and it seals up nice and tight when you close the lid. For the money I paid I'm thrilled. It also has a key lock which is a nice touch. I use an Oasis xl electric humidifier in my humidor so I can attest to how the humidifier that comes with this one will work. Buy this and you won't regret it.

Wonderful inhalation steamer for sinus conditions. I have been plagued with bad chronic sinus conditions for the past 16 years and have been miserable. Four surgeries and still problems. Countless antibiotics, steroid sprays and tablets, etc. Daily treatments morning and evening with the Mabis and the use of NeilMed sinus rinse saline packets has finally given me my life back to a quite productive state again. The Mabis puts out the very necessary copious amounts of steam where other steamers I have owned have failed. The key is that the Mabis concentrates the steam where necessary, into the nasal passages via the small nasal mask. However, it would be an improvement if Mabis would provide a nasal adapter (such as nebulizers have)that directs the steam straight into the nostrils instead of the the small mask which allows the steam to affect the entire nose area. The angled chimney of the inhaler makes it easier to use. However, it too could be improved by the use of a flexible tube or at least have a little more angle so the unit can be easier to use while sitting upright instead of having to hunch over. They should also include more than one misting orifice because saline mixes and hard water will tend to clog the very tiny hole in the mister. Mabis does supply a small cleaning tool (a wire) to ream out a clogged orifice. If you have significant sinus trouble this unit is the best thing you will find. I have used several different devices including the KAZ (no longer made), Vicks (too little steam and not effective, facial type rather than a sinus device). Vicks vaporizer with use of a towel(works but is very hot and brutal on the face). I have used essential oils like cinnamon, clove, thyme, tea tree in the Kaz unit and obtained some relief but the Mabis and saline mix really has been the most beneficial. It doesn't cure anything but it sure brings some quality of life back. I can't recommend this device enough. It is very portable and can be easily packed and taken on trips. I used it in my van with an inverter on a recent long trip which was very convenient. I also use it in my sailboat. It utilizes a very small amount of water which makes it simple to use in a mobile fashion. It is easy to clean as well. I suffer 24/7 with chronic sinus, been to countless doctors, taken all types of meds, had multiple surgeries and this little machine at a tiny fraction of the cost has been a big player in my regaining some quality of life. The NeilMed sailine packets are convenient and work well with the unit, I use about a third of a packet with each Mabis session. I have no interest whatsoever with Neilmed. It's just a convenient sailine product I found at the drugstore and it has helped, so you should know about it. The Mabis is the best steamer you will ever use, don't waste your $$$ on the other feeble steamers like I did.

I had another steam inhaler some years ago, a Kaz TheraSteam. I have problems with my sinuses, and it didn't help much. I have spent years, and some money, on attempting solutions to my sinus problem, with insufficient success. It's been getting better over the years, but every now and then I still wake up after 5 or 6 hours of sleep and can't fall back asleep unless I inhale steam -a hot shower sometimes works, but it basically means getting up and being up for a while, which is no help if it's less than a two hours before the time I'm supposed to get up anyway.

I was shopping for a new humidifier, and not finding much, when it occurred to me that there might be a better steam inhaler than the one I used to have. I came to Amazon and looked around, and decided on the Mabis. I am glad I did! This item definitely does the job, giving off copious amounts of hot wet steam, which is the perfect remedy for my dry burnt-feeling sinuses. You can even adjust it for the kind of steam you want!

My only quibble is that it says in the instructions that the operating time is 6-9 minutes; it seems to be closer to around 15, which is OK with me. The main thing is that, because of this device, I've gotten some sleep that I otherwise would have missed.

The design of the inhaler is revolutionary. I found it easy to use and it has done a wonderful job for me. I use it with the attached aromatherapy chamber. It's doing an excellent job of relieving my allergies. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this unit to friends and family. I had a question for customer service. I called the toll free number and received courteous and prompt service. You won't be sorry with your purchase.

Honest reviews on Mabis Steam Inhaler

I was worried about reading the lack of steam by another reviewer but most reviewers seemed happy with it, so I bought it. Using plain tap water (our Maryland water is hard), the inhaler made strong, gentle, steady steam in less than 45 seconds. The steam lasted about 9 minutes before it decreased.

I would like to have the steam last longer but as it was with trying to breath as fast and as deeply as I could, I was almost hyperventilating in the 9 minutes. The unit has to cool down before you can add more water and you are warned not to over-fill the unit.

The mask is made of a soft, flexible plastic so it was comfortable. I found it easiest just to hold the unit to my face, since resting it on a tissue box caused me to have to bend down. You will probably need an extension cord, since the cord is not very long (if you are using a wall outlet) although if you are using a higher bathroom outlet, it would be fine.

It was very easy to fill open white top, unscrew lid, add measured water, put back together, and turn on. The only little complaint is you should disassemble the pieces and let them dry, so I have had to leave the unit in pieces on a towel to dry for a day.

I have always hated using the old fashioned method of putting my head over boiling water with a towel to breath in the steam. This was much nicer and my face didn't get hot or feel burned. I found this inhaler to be comfortable and convenient.

I had a cold and with using this unit three or four times, I didn't get a sinus infection and I think it helped the cold to be less severe and go away faster. I also rinse my sinuses with a Neti pot with a baking soda/salt solution and very warm water. I have used the Neti pot before and still got a sinus infection but this time with using the steam inhaler, I didn't.

For people with sinus problems, allergies, or prone to cold, I do think using a Neti pot to rinse your sinuses is very helpful. I read about it in a "Sinus Survival" book and my good friend said she hasn't had a sinus infection in years since she started using a Neti Pot every day. I only use the Neti pot when there is a lot of pollen, after yard work, been with lots of people (especially sick ones), when I have a stuffy nose or feel "something" coming on.

Having used both this and Vicks inhalers, I lean in favor of Vicks.

This unit generates lots of visible fine mist, mixed with actual steam. I suspect this is what prompted some users to comment on how much steam this unit generates. I admit the possibility that this may be the optimal approach to some medical applications, but I think for chronic sinus problems what you need is the actual steam. Vicks produces more steam, which is invisible, and no mist. This unit's design is convoluted and in some aspects just plain bizarre (in-line power switch for example). Adding water, regulating mist size all these functions are inconveniently designed and awkward to accomplish.

So it gets the job done, but in the hindsight I wish I got another Vicks.

I agree with the other posts that this is a good product in an amazingly BAD bottle. It's true that you can't really pour from this bottle without a lot of dripping, plus it's impossible to pour a precise amount.

However, I came up with a great solution that I'd like to share. I used an empty bottle of ACT mouthwash-some of the ACT varieties (not all) use a built-in dispenser that has a straw that extends down to the bottom of the bottle. When you squeeze the plastic bottle, mouthwash fills a small cup that's built-in at the top of the bottle, just where the cap screws in. It is easy to pull out this contraption with pliers, and then fill the empty mouthwash bottle with the humidifier solution.

Then, when you want to add the solution to thew water container, simply squeeze the mouthwash bottle and fill the little built-in cup about half or two-thirds, then easily pour it into the water container. Voila! No muss, no fuss.

I am delighted with my clever solution, and suspect you will be too!

Now for the second year, I use this product exclusively. From October through March, my humidifer gets a workout, being used at least every night in the bedroom. This product keeps the humidifer clean, smelling good, and appears to exdend the filter wick life. I have had no sinus infections for the second year in a row and used to have them on a regular basis. Of course, I have nothing scientific to prove its the ant-bacteria treatment, but that's the only thing different I am doing as far as air quality treatment in the bedroom.

The treatment works extremely well. After a horrible experience using our humidifier with no treatment, it works very well now. No more odor from the filters. Note that we did install new filters when we began using the treatment. We did not feel the existing filters could be salvaged. Regarding what others mentioned, the bottle is a terrible design.

For a product label that warns of irreversible skin or eye damage you'd think the design would be drip-proof it is not. Pour carefully and have a cloth/paper towel handy to absorb drips from the spout. Also, I strongly suggest that you add the treatment after filling the humidifier/bottle...then stir or shake. if you add the treatment first, it'll foam quickly and you'll end up with a lot of suds.

We give the product itself 5 stars. We would give Amazon zero stars if we could.

I ordered what was supposed to be a 12-bottle case of Essick 1970 treatment product through Amazon. The ad clearly says a "case of 12" weighing 27.6 lbs. We received only one bottle.

We called Amazon about it. The Amazon rep was surprised when he checked the product description and confirmed that it was for "one case" of product, not a single bottle. Amazon gave us a run around suggesting that it was the fault of their supplier even though Amazon is clearly listed as the company responsible for fulfillment.

We spoke to Deerso and Geroy (the retailers who sell the treatment through Amazon). Neither of them are responsible for the text in the product description, nor are they responsible for shipping the product out. They are not involved with any of it. They provide the products to Amazon. From that point forward Amazon warehouses the product and ships it out.

It is now December 23rd. Amazon has been aware of the issue for some time now. Amazon still incorrectly lists the product as "a case of 12". You will not receive a case of 12. You will receive one bottle. And when you call to bring it to Amazon's attention you will receive an insincere apology and an offer for a refund. They will not honor the product description, nor fix it to reflect reality.

Honest reviews on Essick Air Products 1970 Bacteria Treatment

Before I get started, this works. It cleared up the red slime in both of my humidifiers in less than one tank filling. Now, that said, this stuff sounds like a major health hazard. It clearly states that eye protection, gloves and protective gear be worn. The active ingredients are dimethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides 1.125% and ethylbenzyl ammonium chlorides 1.125%. Has a nice big section of the label that is a precautionary statement on how this is a hazard to humans and domestic animals. Corrosive, causes irreversible eye damage and skin burns. Wear protective eyewear, protective clothing and rubber gloves. Wash hands throughly after using and before doing anything else. Again, it works. But I have to wonder if putting this into a device that atomizes it and puts it into the air... is safe. Also, the bottle I got does not look like the picture. It looks like a big blue bottle of Maalox.

This product was horrible. I purchased two to get us through the next few months and neither filter lasted longer than a week. The issue is that it looks like they are put together with some type of glue gun or something. The glue melted into the humidifier basin so there was a white film in it. Then the filter itself formed a goopy barrier (again the glue) where it hit the water in the humidifier which blocked the filter from working at all anymore.

Just horrible.

This filter is not a genuie Kenmore filter but rather an no name brand replacement. The filter did not wick the water as good as a genuine Kenmore filter nor did it last as long. It virtually stopped wicking after about a month of use while I got a full season of use out of a Kenmore filter in a second humidifier that I have. This filter was much cheaper so I guess you get what you pay for. I would not buy this product again, not a good value.

Honest reviews on 14804 Sears Kenmore Humidifier Wick Filter

I've used many different brands of filters for the Sears humidifier and these are not good. They do not have much wicking material, large "honeycomb" holes, thus they do not produce much moisture. With less fabric they silt up with the minerals very quickly. After about a week it was hard as a rock (lime) and do not wick. This price was good but you get what you pay for.

I'm new to the world of cigars and bought this as a gift for a friend. As part of that gift I wanted to have him open it stocked and ready to use. Well, that ain't happening. The seal of a humidor is the be all, end all test of quality. This box is not quality.

On first checking the product after arrival I noticed the lid was very easy to close. There was no resistance at all. That should've tipped me off to return it, but again, I'm not familiar with this stuff and figured the seasoning process would fix that issue.I had ordered a Boveda seasoning pack along with the box since that seemed to be the easy, no hassle way to get things done. I followed the instructions on the pack, opened it and left it inside the humidor for 2 weeks. Once the time was up I lifted the lid to no resistance and a dried up Boveda. All the videos and tutorials I checked said this was set and forget. I suppose the gap was too large and led to all the moisture being sapped out of the seasoning pack.

So I decided to try the old school method of distilled water and a sponge. This too has ended in failure. During the first phase everything seems to be going well. The wood around the lid swells up and will get a very tight seal. After only a few hours, even with the sponge set inside (on a plastic bag after wiping down the interior) to allow additional moisture to be soaked up, the wood dries back out and loses whatever light seal was there. I can see large gaps where the insert corners meet. The inserts themselves are also somewhat loose. They aren't going to fall out, but you can push on the center and it will bow out. This adds to the poor seal.

I've tried the distilled water/sponge method twice. At this point it seems to be a lost cause. I was only able to get around to doing this recently and the return window has long since expired. I may try some hack-ery to get humidor up to par, but as it stands, it's been a very disappointing purchase. I also can't speak to the "travel" part of the humidor. If you're going to travel with something spend the extra money and purchase one of the plastic cigar caddies. They offer way more protection and are easier to work with.

I will mention one positive about "Quality" Importers travel humidor product: the exterior looks nice. If you don't need to store cigars but want a nice looking storage box for keys or jewelry it's not too bad. Those expecting a kit that will protect your rH sensitive smokes need to look elsewhere. As the adage goes, you get what you pay for.

I've bought many items from Amazon, but this the first time I felt compelled to write a review for a purchased item because of lack of information on this humidor. I've already have a desktop humidor box and a traveling humidor can. Unfortunately, the humidor can won't fit the 8" cigar I usually smoke. So I was hoping this would fit the need. I was considering the capri-glas top humidor, but the height of that box was 1" higher than my liking. Plus, I am going to take it with me on traveling, so the box will most likely be in places where it might be under the sun (i.e. car). Then I saw the Rivera model and thought it be the better option for me. Unfortunately, there was no description of its dimension! Uh, that's kind of important, isn't it? Especially, if it's a travel humidor. So, I ponder it for a couple of days. Looking at its photo over and over again. I finally decided to go ahead with the purchase base on the photo comparison between Rivera and Capri-glass top. I figure if nothing else, the Rivera model should be shorter in term of height.

The item arrived two days before its scheduled delivery. So that was good. I opened up the box and everything was included per item description; the humidifier, the hygrometer, the engraving plate. It didn't came with instruction for how to calibrate the hygrometer or how to season the humidor. That might be a bit of an annoyance for a first timer. But it's nothing a little search on the internet wouldn't solve. Anyway, the first thing I did was take out my ruler and measure the interior dimension. To my chagrin, the interior measured 9.5"x7.75"x1.5" (exterior is 10.5"x8.75"x2.75"). It will fit my 8" Cubano only in horizontal position, leaving about 1.5" of empty space...

I then start the task of calibrating the hygrometer and seasoning the box. Put the meter in a zip lock bag along with a teaspoon of damp salt in it. Woke up the next morning, check on the reading, the meter reads 60. Um, okay, maybe it just need a little more time. So I left it in the bag and went to work. When I came back from work, the reading still indicate 60. I thought to myself, "WTF! This thing is off by +15!?" I decided to take the meter out of the bag anyway and went ahead with the seasoning process. I figured if it really is off by how much I think it is, then the reading should be 55 by the time seasoning is done. Sure enough, 8 hours later, the meter reads 55.

Basically, it's an exquisite humidor (for its price) with a really crappy hydrometer! As of now, I am still testing the meter's reading to see if the +15 margin is really accurate. If it is, then I'll probably keep this crappy hygrometer and just live with the error. Otherwise, I might have to invest in another hygrometer... Lastly, I think all humidor should at the very least, list its interior dimension so people can decide if it's the right size for their purpose or not.

The humidor is real pretty, packed well. There are no instructions for a first timer on how to season. The humidifier has no instructions either, and the peel off sticky pad had no stick, I had to use rubber cement to attach it to the box, which I hope doesn't affect the smell and taste of the el-cheapo brands I can afford. But, it is a pretty box. As for instructions thank Al Gore for the internet! ehow.com has instructions for both seasoning and using the humidifier.

Update day 3: The rubber cement is not going to hold the humidifier's metal mount in place.

I purchased this yesterday while I was trying to shop with watering eyes and a stuffy nose. I placed it on a shelf by my bed last night and finally had something that would help me breathe in the extra dry inside air. The light mist is cool and adds just enough moisture to keep nasal passages and eyes moisturized. It is very easy to set up and move. A 16 oz. bottle of regular drinking water acts as the reservoir and lasts more than 8 hours, depending on how high the mister is set.

I only had this product for about two months, and maybe used it a total of 5 nights. And yet, it started to grow mold and rust. I was very disappointed because I could totally tell the difference when I did turn it on -my sinuses were cleared! And yet, the mold and rust concern me. Make sure to keep maintenance of this item CONSTANTLY.

I have a small office and the air is super super dry. The Sonic Breathe creates the perfect amount of humidity in my office for comfort and keep my eyes from drying out staring at a computer all day.

I called home to have my daughter read me the reviews when I saw this in the store as we had so many sick at home we needed another vaporizer/humidifier. I am not too difficult to please generally. But this is a joke. Did they pay the other reviewers?

OK, enough about my wasted money (about $25 because I had a coupon).

It makes a huge mess. Even my 11 year old remarked about the mess. We put it on a large dinner plate which was loaded with water by the time it was done. More than one night we did this with the same results.

Adjustable? No, it is high output no matter where you put the knob.

My only consolation was that the blue light and the high moisture output made it look like a rocket on the launch pad in Florida about to take off. Not much consolation for the lost $25.

I rely heavily on the reviews here on Amazon. I hope you can make a better decision than I did.

When this is filled with water it is too heavy and will not stay on the top of the inside of the humidor with the magnetic plate provided. Avoid this product.

A chart on the Cigar Mechanic website indicated to buy the large size for 50 or more cigars. I have a 100 cigar humidor so I did just that. Big mistake! The unit was too big and over humidified the cigars! When I asked to make an exchange for the smaller size since this was through no fault of my own, I was refused!! Make sure you buy the right size and hopefully it will work for you.

Do not buy this! They must have changed their product after the first review because mine shipped with velcro instead of a magnet to secure it to the lid of the humidor. I wish they hadn't changed it because I would have preferred it to just fall off the lid than what happened to me. I should have known when I had to click them closed in a couple of spots when I received them.

Filled them up the first time, stuck the velcro on and forgot about it for a week or two when I went to check on my cigars and add some water, instead of the velcro letting the humidifier go, the case opened up and hundreds (thousands?) of beads flowed through the first to shelves in my humidor all the way to the bottom. I have a locker style humidor that holds a few hundred cigars, so I spent about 2 hours delicately removing the beads one by one. Now I have to spend a day in the near future to empty my humidor, remove every last bead, and re-stock. Not to mention having to fight my dog from eating them and turning into jerky.

Junk!

Purchased 5 of these total, great product. Like the ability to be able to open the container and replace the beads when needed.

Great job Cigar Mechanic.
