Discount Credo Roundo Humidifier For Cigar Humidor Round

Customer Ratings:

First it was not absorbing water enough, and you could feel that its weight didn't increase as much as the previous humidifiers i had. So i had to replenish it very often (more often than my previous one). Few weeks later it developed some kind of mold on top of it. And that was it. I threw it and replaced it with a piece of cotton (yes) until I ordered a Xikar humidifier.

pluses: no filters, very (extremely) quiet, easy to clean with shower hose/kitchen sink sprayer

minuses: no humidistat to control on/off

This is my fifth humidifier. Anything with a filter/wick is troublesome in maintainance and costly to replace. Bought the small one for bedroom, then bought medium one for living room. Bought one for nieces baby shower. Would not hesitate to continue buying if needed. One of the best appliances I ever bought.

These are very good for single rooms up to around 12x15 a larger unit is needed for larger rooms.

This unit will be empty in 3 days of only night use, so the water evaporation really works.

I have 2 of these, and am happy with them.

They wont warp or damage any surface or put out too much moisture, even if right next to a wall or object.

Having said that, i feel that most days my lps are still a bit dry and my nose/sinuses are still a bit dry but

nothing like being without a humidifier.

My sinuses ached and my nose was painfully dry, and everyone would cough at night when the heat kicked in.

It must be cleaned every other day if using this daily. I dont use the Venta additive i used that when i 1st tried the unit, and the water stank really bad. I only left it for 3 days, so i think that additive isnt a great idea.

A better idea may be using distilled water (apprx $1 per gallon)if you need to be as clean as possible or for medical reasons. This will reduce water residue/buildup/minerals in the tank.

So i would say even with additive, you need to change the water and clean the unit consistently you dont want to spread anything to anyone thru the evaporation. The water isnt really dirty from 2 days of sitting, its just that water sitting turns bad all by itself. I use a paper towl and vinegar on the tank, and the disk must be soaked and cleaned-its not easy cleaning the disk but maybe if the air is really dirty-once a month.

Overall if your air is real dirty or dusty you may notice a greenish greyish residue from the tank when you clean it. Use vinegar, dont use harsh cleaners-they leave residue and the plastic is porous-dont want to evaporate any cleaners into yur room...

The fan part of the unit can collect dust and really shows you what the air quality looks like but it all can be cleaned because the unit opens easily.

Be careful with the unit and disk! it has a long warantly but in general this tank and top are not tough! if you drop it it will crack or break easily. i dropped the disk when cleaning and the edge cracked off and 3 or 4 of the end of the disks cracked, but it still works fine.

Its great in a small enclosed space, i cant imagine how the larger unit would humidify a large room. The fans do evaporate a ton of water, its very quiet and the sound can almost become a soothing sleep noise, its not a sound like dripping water or anything like that...but in a large open space with more doors and air, ...seems like it may not work like you would think.

-since it will go anywhere its really good for floors, plants, furniture that needs moisture.

FYI if you have steaam radiators that give off a bit of steam when they are in use, this is a decent amount of humidity in every room of the house-dont change them due to noise or looks and baseboard heat is so very dry-we have baseboard heat and i hate it. think about humidity before changing your heating system-it makes a huge difference in your home leather, wood, and people need humidity, and young kids/babies too.

Honest reviews on Venta Airwasher -White, 5014536

I thought this was what I was looking for. First, the unit was cracked as soon as I opened it from the box. The packaging was not damaged nor was the shipping box, I can only assume because it is so poorly constructed ( very thin plastic) that it broke in transit. I ordered three of these and every one was damaged. Amazon rules and got a refund no problem. I love the idea behind this unit but they are waaaaaaaay to small for any size room. I would order the largest one to see if it has the same crap construction and if it doesn't then write a review. There ya have it. Oh yes I must say again that Amazon rules.

The design is excellent: simple, robust, easy to clean. However, this smallest model was unable to raise the relative humidity (RH) of a 140 sq ft room with 8 ft ceilings above 30% or so (unhumidified RH was about 20%). I exchanged for the larger "24" model, which works well: RH reaching about 40%.

Well I did a lot of research for white noise machines. The short of it is, I even stopped in to Brookstone to hear the $70 white noise machine. It wasn't near as loud as this one. But a few comments on this Graco.

-The noise can sound extremely loud or sometimes more quiet depending on the surroundings. It's loud enough for us, and when you first turn it on (highest volume) it sounds very loud. But after a short time, it sounds normal, or even like we could stand it louder. But it's been good.

-All the features are great, though we don't use many. Only white noise and night light

-There was some loose cheap parts that were making some rattling noises randomly. It was very noticeable and annoying. I put a rubber band around the unit vertically, and we haven't heard them sense. It was just cheap platics parts rubbing.

For the money, we're content with this product. It has it's pros and cons. The white noise is a little too deep for us. But all things considered, it's a very decent product compared to anything else on the market that I researched.

This seemed like the perfect product for my baby's room, combining an MP3 player with white noise and a night light, so I made the purchase. It is well built; the music that is programmed into it is quite nice; and the nature sounds are better than I have heard on other white noise machines. BUT the main reason I bought this machine was to create white noise in my baby's room. Unfortunately, I have returned it because the white noise is just not loud enough to block out normal household sounds. Graco, you almost got it right.

Bought this after I sold my graco sweet peace soother. I really like the blue night light feature. Sounds and songs similar to the sweet peace soother. Only negative is the sounds the buttons make when u push them. They make an annoying click. Otherwise love it. I never used the iPod feature on the SP Soother but I have with this sound machine. Music is well projected and sounds good although I've only played yoyo ma.

Update may 21 2013

I have been having issues turning it off...I have to unplug it and plug it back in to get it to shut off. Kind of irritating. I use the HoMedics sound machine below in my sons room and I've never had any problems. I prefer this one.

Honest reviews on Graco Sweet Slumber Sound Machine, White

The Graco Sweet Dream Sound Machine is sturdily built easy to use and has more features than I thought possible at this price point. All of the built in sounds are digitally generated and the sound quality is quite good despite it's small speaker size. The womb sounds are really cool and pretty convincing and there are a few different frequencies of white noise to choose from as well as a volume switch. It has a built in LED night light with an independent switch, and it even comes with a few music selections that are reminiscent of an old wind up music box installed on the device. It's mp3 connection is hidden in the swiveling plastic base that seems a bit flimsy compared to the rest of the unit, but it can house a full size iPod if you wish to slip it inside while it is connected. The unit comes with an A/C power adapter or you can use AA batteries if you wish. The outer housing is plastic but the grill area appears to be enamel coated metal, which was a pleasant surprise and makes the unit feel more substantial and sturdy. All of the switches appear to be high quality sealed micro switches and the overall quality is very nice. I am impressed with this unit, and think that the folks at Graco did a fantastic job designing and building this product. It is yet to bee seen if the baby will like it, but I am duly impressed.

I think it's a cute machine that does most everything great, but we really needed something LOUD to cover the street noises and neighbor noises in our urban neighborhood. And we wanted the womb noises, which seem to be quieter than some of the other noises. We had been using the sound machine that comes with the graco sweetpeace swing, but that one is much louder; however, we have to return it to a friend of ours pretty soon.

I spent about three hours reading reviews and trying to learn all the pros and cons of humidifiers. This is because I really HATE wasting time with returns, certainly hate wasting money on things that don't last, and always want the lowest-maintenance alternative.

And I'm willing to pay more to avoid hassles.

This arrived just two days ago, and so far so good. I hesitated about giving it 5 stars, but then realized it seems to be exactly as advertised.

However, if it dies or has problems, I will be returning to edit this review accordingly.

***

SETUP:

Pretty much easy as pie. The water tank is quite easy to fill and carry. (A large 5 inch cap is involved that must be screwed on quite tightly, which may be a slight issue for an elderly person. If so, something like the Evriholder EasiTwist Jar Opener, Assorted Colors would be a good thing to have.)

For refilling at very shallow sinks, it might also be helpful to get something like the Univ Repl Fill Hose, which will fit over any faucet. It would be nice if they included something like this in the box with the humidifier.

OPERATION:

Also quite easy. The directions are very good, and include helpful photos. The manual frequently says that, if you have any problems or questions, to call their tech support line -good to know.

FEATURES:

It has them all: warm or cool mist; digital settings to cut the guesswork; a built-in humidity sensor (I haven't tested the room humidity with a separate instrument yet); negative ion generator; timer; translucent tank to see the water level; auto shutoff when tank is empty; settings to go from LOTS of mist volume to light mist, or just set the mist volume to Auto. And, of course, a tiny remote control.

And it is very quiet. What little noise you hear is actually pleasant.

MAINTENANCE:

Having read a lot about how other brands require regular cartridge replacement, frequent cleanings, and various other forms of fussing, I am impressed with the system they have engineered: chemically treated beads in a cage that pre-treat the water, and which they say will not need periodic replacement.

The user manual says to spot-clean with vinegar once a week (if you're using it every day). It also says to soak the bead cage for 10 minutes, but does not say how often. Surely ALL of this depends on how hard your water is (i.e., how much calcium and other minerals it contains). I am lucky to have very good city water, and plan to clean only when I start to see some evidence of white film in the basin where you put the water tank.

(Some may find their water is so hard that a) it has to be boiled first, or b) they have to use bottled water. But this is a water problem that affects all humidifiers. I think some reviewers of other products don't understand that.)

The big question most will ask: how often do you fill the tank? I don't have a good answer yet, but will update. Their printed brochure in the box claims "up to 7 nights" of use per tank at the lowest settings. Their web site claims "up to 14 nights". (Hmmm... where's the salt?) But I can say: even if you had to fill the tank every night it would be no great hardship.

RESULTS:

This was purchased for a household member who has been having real problems with the dryness of winter heating, including bad sinus issues, in a 200 sq ft bedroom. She reports that symptoms are clearing up after the first night of use. She doesn't notice it at all when it's operating and forgets it's there.

Final advice for now: the corny brand name. I almost didn't buy it because I thought "How can anything named 'Heaven Fresh' be any good?" Well, it does appear to be very good technology, well-made too, and a rather attractive design.

Like I said, if anything bad happens, I'll be back. But all the signs are quite good so far. Plus they are standing behind their product with a 3-year warranty (parts & labor), and if anything goes wrong in the first 90 days, they'll ship you a new machine.

Seems unlikely to turn into a "disposable" that I've read about in other product reviews, the ones that cost less than half and seem to be one whole lotta trouble. But, we'll see.

I love this humidifier.... We live in northern montana, so the forced air furnace runs all the time in the winter creating bone dry air. Most of the winter, I would usually cough a lot and have nose bleeds from dry nasal passages. Have tried just about every humidifier to keep the bedroom air moist, but they were all ineffective.... With the vaporizer types, there would be so much moisture we'd get tons of condensation on the windows and mold and frost in the corners, the evaporative types with the wicks or pads just couldn't put out enough and the wicks would clog up and get yucky at the base. The smaller ultrasonic models wouldn't put out nearly enough to keep the air moist and sprayed more calcium particles than moisture.

This one WORKS!!!! I can set it for 50 percent humidity and it gives me just that...... All night long ... With refilling the tank about every other day. No more waking up coughing!!!! It gives a wonderful mist, and I haven't had calcification issues yet... I fully expect to have to de-scale the water holding areas because I'm using tap water.... But it doesn't spray white powder all over everything, even with high calcium water... And the silver beads keep the water smelling fresh, so there's no musty moldy yuck like the evaporative ones had.

Addressing some of the other concerns reviewers had voiced..... I had absolutely no problem with the light intensity from the display, It's a nice soft blue that is just bright enough so that I can look over and see that it's working ok.. Not intrusive or overly bright . As far as filling the tank.. There's a drop or two when you lift it up.... It is water on water at the inlet... But we're talking a couple of drops. The tank isn't that heavy when filled.... Maybe 10 pounds...it's no different than lifting a watering can with a gallon and a half of water. The hardest part is that the cap on the base can get a bit of a vacuum in it... And if you are older with small hands, it can be a little hard to break the seal on the vacuum, but the same handy device you use to open a jar works just fine to open the cap.... Or if you're Betty white, you can get your cute pool boy to do it. I've had no problem with white dust,even with hard water... The beads in the infuser seem to be very effective. As far as too much moisture..... You've got to set it to what you need, I started at 25 percent, too low, Went up to 67 and got too much moisture in the area surrounding the device, went down to 50 and it was perfect for our bedroom. Not much different than adjusting a thermostat. And it is quiet.. If I'm awake I can hear it cycle as a slight whoosh if the room is quiet. If I'm asleep,I never even notice, And I'm a light sleeper. Overall, More satisfied than I ever have been on a product of this type...

Love the white noise background it offers. The adjustable vapor is awesome. The only negative (if it can be called that) is the noise made to alert a water empty shut off. When this occurs in the middle of the night it is alarming.

Honest reviews on Heaven Fresh HF 707 Digital Ultrasonica Cool and Warm Mist

It is quiet enough to work with it in the room with it and not be distracted. It holds enough water to last most of the day, even on a high setting. It does raise the humidity, but only on the floor where it is being used. My brother has three in his house and has better results. Dislike the filling of water from the bottom of the water container. It is consistently messy and always gets water on our hardwood flooring. If I had known about this in the beginning, I might not have purchased it, but now that I have, I find it doesn't matter as much as having a quiet, efficient machine. Since I am an engineer, I imagine the trade off to produce less vibration, and less sound, is probably required of the water filling, but it is a dislike anyway. For us, it is only 3 months out of the year.

I did a lot of research on these before I bought one. I have paid too much money for humidifiers I have not been happy with. Usually the tank is too small, they are hard to clean, they get dirty too fast, etc. I liked the reviews on this machine so I purchased it and I have not been disappointed. This device works very well and does a great job. There are enough settings that I have lots of control but not so many that it becomes complicated. The tank is the perfect size; it lasts through the night on the max setting while still putting out a lot of moisture. I also like the reading of the current humidity so you can gauge (or let it automatically) when to shut off or lower the mist. This has been a great product and is very well made. We have had it for a month now and used it every single night. It has worked great, is easy to clean, and keeps the water very clean in the tank and reservoirs. We have very hard water and I am impressed at how well this machine handles it. We do get some white dust from it, but that is to be expected with as hard as our water is. Overall we love this product and will probably get another one for our family as well.

I had to replace mine, this small piece of simple looking plastic is similar to a "T" used in aquarium plumbing... but 10 times the price. I decided I could use some kind of fastener to hold it in place, like a Red Green fix. Long story short, didn't work and the hose shifted slightly over a matter of hours causing a leak and a puddle to form around the back half of the furnace.

My advice, it's not overpriced compared to having water damage from trying to jury rig a cheap fix.

I accidentally threw this away when I discarded the old humidifier pad and a replacement was supposed to be over 200 dollars. I was able to putchase it here for about 70 dollars, and it works like a champ. I can't tell if there is any difference from the OEM.
