Reviews of OXO Tot Bottle Brush with Nipple Cleaner and Stand

OXO Tot Bottle Brush with Nipple Cleaner and Stand, Orange
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

My wife and I have been searching long and hard for the ideal bottle brush. We tried several from the usual stores in our area. One was flimsy and hardly cleaned, another rusted quickly. We even tried that one with the sponge on the end. Well, just like any sponge, the whole thing needed replacement.

I saw the reviews for this sponge and decided to buy it. We have been using it for over a week now and I have to say that I like the bottle brush very much.

It is sturdy, cleans wonderfully and also looks very nice next to our sink. Aesthetics wasn't what we were going for, so I'll focus on function.

The brush has a nipple cleaner built into the handle that one screws out to use. But we can't seem to figure out this part. It's just a rubber stub... we were expecting a "mini-brush". The stub doesn't clean efficiently, doesn't make sudds and frankly, doesn't make sense.

We were looking for the ideal bottle brush/nipple brush combo, but it looks like we will have to keep looking. We still use this to clean the bottles, but use our older small brush to clean the insides of the nipples. So much for consolidation.

In the end... it's a good product, but, just what's with the nipple cleaner?

This is durable bottle brush, but it's quite large. I purchased the brush hoping to use it with the bottles that came with my Medela Pump In Style, and it's far too large for that. It will work perfectly with large bottles with wide openings. Unfortunately, it's too big if you're going to be using it for small bottles.

Best Deals for OXO Tot Bottle Brush with Nipple Cleaner and Stand

Pros:

PRICE

soft bristles that clean well

stand w drain is handy

vents for nipple cleaner

no metal parts to rust (this was my problem w my last cleaner)

Cons:

bristle head a little too soft (bristles are bent out of shape < 1 month of use; maybe i press too hard?)

nipple cleaner not very practical, it doesn't get into every nook and cranny i'd like, so i have to use a separate little brush for some parts

stand could be heavier/wider so it's not as easy to tip over

Overall a good bottle brush and I'm happy with my purchase. I just wonder how long it will last since bristles are already getting bent out of shape.

Honest reviews on OXO Tot Bottle Brush with Nipple Cleaner and Stand

It is a good, functional, good looking bottle brush. I like it is soft, so you do not get all splashed while pulling out of the bottle. Goes inside of necks of various sizes. Stand is handy too.

I am sooooo surprised by the big size of this brush. It's almost the size of you toilet brush. I can't understand why they make such big brush for milk bottle cleaning, The size make it inconvenient.

Review of HYDRA Humidifier

HYDRA Humidifier
Customer Ratings: 2.5 stars

The Stadler Form Hydra EMS-171 worked very well for six weeks, and then stopped. I ordered a new cartridge, and cleaned the device but it still did not work. The cleaning procedure in the operating instructions is vague, so there is no way of knowing if I cleaned & descaled correctly and the manufacturers website give no more information.

I would not recommend this humidifier to a friend.

Mine lasted about 2 months before it died. Should have read the reviews here before buying it. When it worked it was great. Highly recommended if you only need a humidifier for 6-8 weeks.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I only got to use this unit for a bit due to changes in the weather, but for the short time I ran it it worked well. Good performance at a cheap price, as claimed. I can't comment on long-term reliability as I see this has been an issue for others, but the unit worked well for me.

Honest reviews on HYDRA Humidifier

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We have quite a few humidifiers around our home..being in the Northeast the heat dries us out. We have a couple of these ultrasonic devices and they work great.

The Hydra was easy to setup and the manual was easy to comprehend. Install the filter, add water, and voila you are ready to go.

The controls are easy to understand, the device is quiet, and it works well....just as well as some units that cost much much more.

My only issues with this unit or any other unit are simple:

The filters are costly...and they are necessary to keep dust at bay.

The cleaning process requires descaling packets which add to cost.

The ionizer bar, which should be replaced yearly, sometimes is expensive and often makes you wonder if you should just buy another humidifier.

These are great units and they work well; especially if you can deal with the cost of the 3 things above after the first few months/1 year of usage.

4/5 for me.

My Stadler Form Hydra worked fine for over a year. I actually just used it in the winter and stored it during the summer months when the windows were open and the humidity was fine. After using it for a while this winter, I changed the filter and ionic cube for the first time and cleaned the exposed parts thoroughly. It has never worked since. The green light will come on and stay on for a while but no mist is ever generated.

I was easily able to reach the service folks at 877-663-7893 and was told that maybe the humidity was already high enough so the Hydra didn't stay on. It had been raining outside so I left it on for over a week to see if it would finally work. It did not. I was told on the initial call to service dept if it didn't work I could send it back for repair, but I am out of warranty. So I thought it would be easier to buy a new one for $100 than return it to the manufacturer and pay for shipping and repair which may be significant. With the problems I am hearing about here, I will call the service line and see what the estimated cost would be. I may have to write this humidifier off.

For those of you within the warranty -1 year you should be able to return it. The selling store should also take it back if it fails within a short time.

Have mostly hardwood, but rugs throughout the house. This vac is great! Love the telescopic part and the attachments, which are stored within the vac, for baseboards and up high. It is light weight with a handle, making stairs super easy. Very long cord and incredibly quiet. We have a horribly shedding dog with long fur, two toddlers and we live in a construction zone this gets it all. Worth the price. Will last for years. Used to have a Dyson Animal HORRIBLE. Was between this and the Alize appreciate the separate heads. Parquet head swivels well (corners, under cribs, in small tight places) perfect for hardwood / tile flooring. If you're between this and Dyson, go Miele.

I am happy with this vacuum (a good thing considering the price), my only complain is the fact that it's not compatible with the power brush. I did a ton of research before finally ordering this machine, and in spite of looking at every comparison charts available, and reading all the consumer reviews, I didn't see any mention of this key fact. I have high fiber carpet and two dogs, and although it's still doing a good job, I am going to keep my bulky Dyson upright for the carpeted areas.

Otherwise, is very quiet and powerful. The cord is not as long as an upright, that another downfall, but something I can leave with.

Essick Air #d46720 6galgry 4spd Humidifier Review

Essick Air #d46720 6galgry 4spd Humidifier
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

We have gone through many humidifiers over the years and we have tried everything every type, every brand and this is a product category dominated by lemons. This Essick humidifier is a gem. It is easy to install and setup, has a decemt hygrostat (humidity gauge), and has a full digital LCD screen. We have not had issues with white dust which plagues other humidifiers. My only minor complaint is the power and fan speed control are the same button; when you hold down the button to turn it off, the fan turns down one speed and you have to cycle through to get the original speed when turning it back on. Very minor nuisance.

We liked our first so much we bought a second for the family room. Would recommend to anyone and we are considering buying a third one. We will never buy another humidifier brand.

After researching the heck out of every sort of humidifier on the planet within an "average" price range, I decided on this Essick Air unit.

Essick's reputation for quality and customer service were the deciding factors in my purchase. The humidifier was delivered with a broken tab on the front grill, no big deal but this was a new item. I picked up the phone and spoke with a REAL person at Essick 4 days later a new grill arrived.

There seems to be no real difference in the construction of the majority of humidifiers out there. Almost all are made in China, almost all priced "about" the same and almost all work most of the time.

The difference will be in the company behind the product.

This unit works well. The tanks are easy to fill at the sink. The replacement wicks are readily available and inexpensive for the life you'll get out of them. Fan settings on 3 and 4 are loud, more than just background noise I keep mine on 2 and it isn't bad. The built in digital meter is nice as well as the pre-set feature.

I ordered the unit on Amazon, it was sold by Uncle Joe's. Their true to their word so far as processing and shipping and had the best price at the time,$78.00. I would buy from again.

I recommend this unit for a medium size apartment or smaller house.

Buy one size larger than what you think you'll need, my only regret is that I listened to my wife and didn't. Here in the NE when it gets cold it gets real dry real fast.

We bought one of these a little less than 3 years ago. The water tanks that came with it leaked immediately. I called Essick customer service and they sent (free of charge) new, redesigned tanks that worked fine. The unit gave out about a month ago. I called customer service and explained the problem to them. They said that it sounded like the fan motor was finished, so that is the end of this humidifier. They only have a one year warranty, so I'm out of luck. We paid around $90 for this, so that's around $30 per year. I won't be buying another Essick product.

Honest reviews on Essick Air #d46720 6galgry 4spd Humidifier

I recommend this product. Works great! Would not turn on out-of-the-box so I emailed customer service. They wrote right back to me (Yes, even the same day!!) and told me what the problem was and clear instructions as to how to fix it. Worked great after I got it going. Customer service gets a 5-star rating. Humidifier I give 4-stars. I would give it 5-stars, but I find the fan a bit noisy on the two higher settings.

I had owned my Essick Air humidifier for about a year before the motor stopped working. I was running my humidifier at the highest humidity level and fastest fan speed 24/7 for five months. I contacted Essick Air's customer service department and they told me to ship it to them, with a free shipping label, and they would either repair it or replace it. I never got around to it and was not in dire need of the replacement or repair due to the apartment I was living in but moved again and suddenly needed it due to the dry radiant heaters of my new place. I contacted Essick Air again and, due to the generous two year warranty on the motor, received a brand new replacement without requiring me to ship the defective model back to them. I am happy to say that I have received my new humidifier and the air in my apartment is pleasantly moist and my sinuses are relieved! Thanks Essick Air!

Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars

This humidifier is great! I have been using it since Christmas and granted it does make a little boiling noise but it works really well. I don't use it in my bedroom I have it in my kitchen/familyroom. The noise is not something that gets on your nerves. It is very easy to clean and doesn't require all the mineral pads most other humidifiers do. It takes most of the day for the unit to use the 2.5 gallons it holds. We let it run overnight so we usually fill it once before bedtime and then again when we get up in the morning. It has an orange light that comes on when the unit needs to be refilled. It has two speeds low and high. I remember the old humidifiers we had when I was a child sounded like this one and they lasted forever. If you are wanting one for your bedroom you might want to bypass this one. However, if you want one for the house it works great. All you have to do to clean it is slide back the latch to the open position and then lift the back part with the control off the unit, take out the tray, wash it, rinse it and put it back in. We use osmosis water in it and haven't had build up on the tray. I also wash the tray every day. It is really very easy to refill. It has a handle on the bottom side so when you remove it from the unit you can carry it to the sink, refill it and put the lid on then revert it back on the humidifier by holding onto the upper wing or the U shape handle you see on top of the unit as pictured. I suggest keeping it on a flat hard surface.

ProsEasy to clean,

Efficient, goes a long time on one refill

Really distills the water into a fine mist that doesn't leak everywhere

Is easy to refill

Has two speeds

Has a refill light signal

Auto shutoff

Cons The vent for the steam is on the top backside of the humidifier so you can't put it against a wall or under an upper cabinet

The noise is minimal, a boiling noise, but it could disturb sleepers if it is kept in the bedroom

I disagree with other reviewers who didn't like it. I like this one for several reasons. I have had this one years ago and it was the humidifier that lasted the longest among many that I owned.

The bubbly sound is insignificant to me. I got used to it quickly a while back, and I could sleep to it without issues. It is the reliability of this product that made me look for it and buy it again. And its tank capacity is unmatched, so I don't have to go back to the faucet and refill it every now and then like the others.

Plugged it in and put it on "high". Too much noise for sleep, turned it down to "low"...still too much noise.

It's a humidifier that does the job but is somewhat loud sounding. I think it's annoying actually so I returned it.
