I bought this to replace an older unit that held water in a tray. This unit supplies fresh water each time it is used. My 2400 sq foot house is a constant 40% humidity and feels much better. Installation was fairly easy. Most people will need to buy the relay to sense when the fan motor comes on. This allows the 24 volt converter to remain on instead of cycling on and off each time the furnace fan motor comes on.

I was able to get a pair of filters for less than the repair shop wanted for just one. Great deal. They fit perfectly, and are the exact same thing that the shop wanted a lot more for.

Great deal.

this made in china product seemed very appealing to me because of its memory capability for the humidity inside the guitar case. I purchased 4 of them since i own 4 different classical guitars as well as acoustic guitars each worth over $3000, and you can imagine my anxiety when the heater is on and the humidifier may not be enough to protect them. when i opened the box, the items looked o.k., but when i tested the hygrometerPlanet Waves Acoustic Guitar Humidifier with HTS the reading was WAY OFF. i actually put the hygrometer right in front of my humidifier and it barely changed its reading where as my other hygrometer detected it immediately. i hope the humidifier works better than the hygrometer......

I bought this for my Takamine and disappointed me after my first use. I have a humudifier with hyydro numbers on it and this never matched with that. But I accept the fact it gave me +3-3 numbers so I was OK with it. It comes also with stickers you can sort of put on your bookshelf but they fell down in 2 days.It has a cheesy workmanship and it gives you approximate numbers.Well deserved 2 stars.

I have two Oasis Hygrometers, one for each guitar case and got the Planet Waves Hygrometer for my new guitar. They are all C.F. Martins, high quality guitars. I found the Planet Waves Hygrometer to be consistent with the readings of the Oasis models give or take a few points.

It offers more than the Oasis Hygrometer in that you can log in a set point for humidity. If the humidity drops below your desired level, (45-55% is recommended), a droplet icon will appear indicating the need for more water. The velcro fasteners could be better but I simply put the whole unit in the storage compartment of my hardshell guitar case. Even keeps a log of the past humidity/temp readings in the memory. Well done Planet Waves!

I have two same Planet Waves humidity sensors. Don't trust any of them as putting both side by side I have completely different readings of humidity (like 34% versus 25%). Sometimes units having less difference in readings, but had never been less than 3%. This is crap unit with no stability and accuracy. I should mention that Hunidifier itself works fine and I use it as well as Humidity controls pack I have.

This is my 6th small humidifier. This time I was determined to find an ultrasonic model that featured an automatic shutoff, a rotating mist outlet & digital controls. While they are such practical features, you'd be surprised to learn how hard that combo is to find! I came across this one from Crane a big name in plumbing fixtures. As I hadn't heard of them making humidifiers before, I was leery. You know how it can backfire when you buy something that isn't a mainstream name or model? That won't be the case with this machine.

I am totally & pleasantly surprised. It arrived on time, well-packed & was intuitive to get started. It's SO quiet! The reason that I chose this one over a quite comparable Holmes or Honeywell is because it includes an ionizer a feature that one would normally need to purchase a separate air purifier to have. It also offers BOTH cool & warm mist. While I don't expect to use the warm mist (cats,) it's good to know that it's there. This is by far the QUIETEST humidifier of the six that I have had!

Unless you're independently wealthy & can afford to run it with distilled water, you will need the optional demineralization filter to avoid the white powder deposit left by hard water. So just go ahead & buy one.

This machine is a real winner in every way. And oh, btw, did I mention that is QUIET????????

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program

This humidifier has lots of features and controls that matter. With a built in humidity monitor, it can be set to run automatically and keep a room at the desired level. To protect from too much moisture, having a humidity level control is important, and tends to only be on more expensive models. You can also configure 3 levels of output, which is quite a lot on high. And finally a timer control in 1 hour increments between 1 and 12 hours and continuous (up to 24 hours -probably the tank capacity). So you really can control how long, how fast, and what level. And it has a large tank to last too. Then you have the auxiliary stuff like ionizer (air freshener, although I cannot tell), and "warm mist" mode. The warm mist is the most controversial because it isn't hot steam. But it takes 15 minutes *after* the button is pressed to actually start spewing warmer mist, so don't expect to immediately notice. Personally I am wary of warmer mist due to worry about it being more conducive environment for mold. It is fairly quiet, but not silent. It is a low hum like a small motor but not very prominent, and a bubbling sound like a fish tank aerator, but not as loud or distracting. I'd prefer constant white noise, but the bubbling sound is still quiet. It is quite light (when empty) and easy to use. Overall it is quite nice.

It has a few minor drawbacks. (1) It has a rather short power cord, but is easily solved with an extension cord. (2) However quiet, the bubbling noise being audible might bother some. (3) The tank has no usable handle, which they are very clear about in the manual. There is a flimsy handle only for use when empty. I'm not sure why it has one at all if you might accidentally use it. But it is fine. (4) It is "germ defense", not maintenance free, so you still have daily and weekly maintenance, although not too bad, and there are 2 areas to clean. (5) Removing the tank can let some water drip if you aren't careful due to the open reservoir design, and emptying the open bottom reservoirs when full takes some attention to not tip and drip.

Take heed of maintenance required. Even though it is "germ defense", it doesn't mean maintenance free. Daily you still have to completely empty it (both tank and reservoirs) and dry. Weekly you have to use a water and 2-tbs white vinegar solution to soak 30 minutes, shake, rinse, dry, and in both tank and reservoirs. You must do this to keep it a safe, germ & mold free environment or you could do more harm than good. It doesn't really sound too bad to do, but I really wish they would make a maintenance free one. I wish there were disposable parts or quick wipes or something that didn't sound like a chore. This is true of any humidifier

You cannot use it on or near wood surfaces or furniture (or anything else) that might be damaged by too much moisture. There will be more moisture in the immediate vicinity too, and you cannot use a towel under it due to the vent opening underneath. So if you have a lot of wooden surfaces or sensitive stuff, you might be hard pressed to find a good place to use any humidifier. This one lets you set it from 40-80% humidity, but as they advise, you should only set it from 40-50%. It both risks damage from moisture, as well as an environment for mold. So the key is to strike a perfect balance. This is true of any humidifier.

This is my third small humidifier and my first ultrasonic one. The other two were evaporation style one using disposable filters and the other using a permanent filter which water was circulated over. The second is in the trash bin, didn't last two years. The first is a Vornado and works ok but is loud and requires replacing the filters every year.

Now onto the Crane. Based on the great reviews I read about the Crane humidifiers, I was looking for the drop shape one, but could not find it anywhere locally. My local Frys had this one so I picked it up. It humidifies really well, there are three settings, the highest pumps a lot of moisture in the air. So much so that it will dampen the carpet and other objects around if the fan in the room is not on. I usually keep it on low or the second setting and keep the ceiling fan on low. I also like the adjustable nozzle on the top. It has two rotating sections that can be aimed independently, so you can aim it in two directions. The warm mist feature is not necessary steam, it warms the water prior to misting it. You can feel the warmth a few inches over the nozzle, but it's cool after that. I usually use the warm feature and the ionizer all the time.

What I don't care much for is the tank design. It must be flipped over to fill and there is no handle or any easy way to old it while flipped. Also, the handle on the top is not centered, so when holding the full tank it tilts forward a bit. When setting back in the unit, you need to level the tank before it will slide completely in. it's not the biggest deal, just a minor annoyance.

I'm also not a big fan of the buttons on the front. They are completely flat and sense the heat from your finger. If your hands are cold or damp from just handling the tank, sometimes the buttons don't register a press. Since they are completely flat, I can't find the buttons by feel while trying to make adjustments in the dark. The display is also way too bright at night, I have a piece of index card taped up to cover it.

Overall I like the humidifier and does a wonderful job of humidifying, but the design could be improved a bit.

Honest reviews on Crane Ee-8064 Crane Germ Defense Humidifier - Digital, White

This Crane humidifier with touch controls works pretty well.

The Pros are:

Quite good humidity output that allows you to control how fast you change the humidity in your room. Also has timer so you can have it shut off after several hours, which is good if you don't want it running all day or night.

The humidity level can be changed from 40% up to 60%. Mine seems pretty accurate, as I compared against a digital humidistat about 10 feet away and they typically run within 5% after you allow a couple of hours (I'm using it in a 500 sq ft. room).

The antimicrobial plastic polymer does seem to slow down the amount of bacteria that grows, so if the machine is cleaned once/week, it should be fine. It's easy to clean

We fill it with water that was filtered by a good under the counter water filter, so not much white powder, even on the TV.

The Cons are:

Remembering to remove the nozzle prior to removing the tank to fill it. It usually goes flying somewhere on the floor.

It's pretty quiet, but mine has an annoying high pitch hum from the ultrasonic transducer. It's OK if you have the TV on or some other sound. I think to sleep with, it may not work for you. I can't sleep with it on.

The tank is kind of a pain to fill since the handle is designed pretty poorly and is not centered so you will need two hands to handle it for sure.

As for reliability, ours is only about 2 months old, so far so good.

I hope this helps !

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This entire unit seems very fragile, and this fact is probably demonstrated best by the manufacturer's repeated instructions in the manual of "DO NOT carry Water Tank by handle when it is filled with water." Why? Presumably because the handle is so weak and fragile that it will break off. Yes, it's THAT flimsy.

The primary reason, though, why this unit is essentially unusable is that the humidity sensor on this one I've received is faulty. When I plugged it in, it stated that the "present" room humidity is "40%," and once during a 5-hour run, it registered "41%." However, at the time I started it running, my HygroSet Digital Hygrometer w/ Calibrating Kit, recently calibrated, read that the actual, in-room relative humidity was 34%. Hygrometers on humidifiers are notoriously inaccurate, so I simply assumed that this one on the Crane Ee-8064 read slightly high. I was wrong....

After 5 hours of running at the highest setting, the tank was nearly emptied, and my personal hygrometer read that the RH had risen to 53%. However, the readout on the humidifier itself still read 40%. Completely dysfunctional.

If you want a unit to run wide-open in a room to get it humidified quickly, this might be a fair choice, but, based on this experience, I don't trust this unit's sensor. It's not one I'd trust to leave on overnight or to let run if I were to leave the room, for it can't possibly self-regulate if the sensor can't detect a 19-point change in relative humidity. I'd pass on this one.

I have been using this dehumidifier for several weeks. It does what it is supposed to, and is somewhat quieter than the one it replaced, which I appreciate. I also like how the air filter is designed so it is simply pulled out of the side of the unit for cleaning.

I have a semi-submerged basement that gets a little muggy, particularly in the summer, so I purchased this unit not even a year ago to help keep the area comfortable. While the unit ran fine for about 9-10 months, it promptly began to malfunction as it neared the one year mark. Condensation appeared on the right side of the unit and frost began to collect on the coils. I have let it defrost several times, but the ice always reappears, and actually gets so thick that it makes removing the bucket and filters difficult. While it's true that I used this appliance almost constantly, I think if I pay 200 dollars plus for a device it should function reliably for more than a year.

Best Deals for SPT SD-30E 30-Pint Dehumidifier with Energy Star

This dehumidifier seems to work well if you can empty the reservoir regularly. Since we are out of our house for months at a time, I need to attach a hose so the water will run out. Our first dehumidifier lasted only three years (a Zenith ZD30)so we needed a new one. When I wanted to set a hose up for continuous water flow, the hose provided was too short and too narrow. I couldn't attach it to the exit nozzle. I went to Home Depot (I bought it through Home Depot online) and asked if they had any ideas for me. After some thought, we decided to take a thicker hose.

I ended up using the thicker hose from HD and a hose clamp to attach it to the nozzle. Since the presence of the hose clamp does not allow the water reservoir to be inserted correctly, I needed to tape the lever (the lever the tells the machine that the reservoir is inserted correctly) with cardboard and duct tape.

I did use the tiny piece of hose pipe that was provided when I inserted it into the garden hose that leads to the shower. Then I inserted the tiny hose into the Home Depot hose, thereby making a leak-free communication of hoses.

In the end, the machine works fine, but you will need to make some significant modifications if you want the condensation to flow out continuously.

Honest reviews on SPT SD-30E 30-Pint Dehumidifier with Energy Star

Purchased the dehumidifier 1 year ago for use in the basement. I attached a hose for continous use. Turned it on and have left it on for the year. Automatically defrosts as necessary. Maintains a consistent humidity. It is a little loud when in defrost due to running higher air flow rate, but no a problem.

I ordered this brand because of the Energy Star rating. we always try to do a small bit to conserve energy for our growing world. It is a bit loud as described in other reviews so I wouldn't recommend for your living area, but we use it in the basement and that is not a problem. I wish that it had a larger capacity tank as we need to change it 2x a day. There is a 'work-around' in that it has a setup for constant drainage but we have no place to drain into so we will put up with the small tank. At least it has an automatic shut-off should the tank reach capacity. Our old Sears reconditioned dehumidifier lasted 20 years, so we hope that we can get close to that with this one. I would, so far, recommend this brand and model to anyone with the caveats of this review and others. At least,now, our lights don't dim each time a dehumidifier cycles on like the old one.
