It works as expected. In the 1st 6 hours it removed over 1 gallon of water from the air and reduced the humidity 15%. It does put out some heat but that is to be expected of all dehumidifiers that do not have an outside air ventilation system.

My house has condensation issues on the inside, so i got this to lower the humidity. Fixed the problem. But it is louder than the clothes drier and squeeks a terrible racket for a brand new appliance. It cycles on and off to keep the pump from not over heating or something I guess but it still will not get the humidity below 50% I have a fairly small house.

After owning it about a month, I am quite impressed with this unit.

It is relatively quiet -especially on low fan speed-and it will really pull the moisture from the air.

I like the top display that shows the ambient room temp as well as the humidity percentage. The device can be adjusted to a wide range of target humidity levels.

It also features the ability to resume its duties automatically following a power outage. Other units must be restarted manually. That is a great feature for us as our electricity can "blink" off a couple of times a month.

I can highly recommend this unit.

I owned a previous model from Danby. Used it for just under 3 years seasonally. It stopped condensing moisture. Still looks new otherwise. This newer model has an improved design for hose connection. It comes with a long hose. Nice. So far, works fine. 2 year warranty comes with it. Hopefully, it will last long. It's noisy. I guess most of them are noisy.

Granted, I have only had this unit for one day but I wish to post some observations. First off, the 1st unit was doa. Amazon shipped me another overnight at no extra cost to me. Kudos to Amazon. This is replacing a 5 year old unit that was recently recalled.

I had a hard time finding how energy efficient this unit was. I couldn't even find out how many watts it used. Even the Danby site doesn't mention this. Oh, and I went to energystar.gov to try and find it, but haha, it is closed due to the government shutdown. Sure you can get to the main page of it, but all lists and details are not available. Only a front or main page. Ridiculous.

So I grabbed my trusty Killawatt to measure it. With the fan speed on low it uses 276 watts. It was also drawing 2.59 amps and after 4 hours it used 1.07 kwh. Where I live that cost me around 8 cents, or 2 cents an hour, or a half a buck per day. VERY energy efficient.

It comes with its own 4' hose in order to use continuous drain. It also has two fan speeds, high and low. It is small and light and come with caster wheels for the bottom of it,which are easy to install, if needed. It also is a tad noisy, not loud mind you, but noisy. It also works very well. Took my humidity level from 71% to 59% in four hours. It has an easily accessible filter that can be vacuumed and washed off. It is recommended that the unit be 8" from the back wall in order to dissipate heat. I use this in my 500 sq ft (3700 cu ft) unfinished basement and didn't notice any heat from the unit, in fact the temperature dropped from 64 degrees to 60 during my initial 4 hour power test.

I will update this in the future if anything changes but so far I am very pleased. I would highly recommend it.

UPDATE #1. Once the unit reaches its adjustable humidity level the compressor goes off and the fan stays on. When this happens the amp draw is .3, or 32 watts being used.

I got this for Xmas after asking for one because my apartment is so dry during the cold winter months. I love that it's black and matches the living room. It does the job and works great. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is noisy to the point where the television has to be turned up to block it out.

Best Deals for Honeywell HCM-890B - Humidifier - black

I had this humidifier for YEARS now (I'm talking about 5+ years!!), but in white. I have nothing negative to say about it. Small, compact, easy to deal with. Big enough for our bedroom. Yes, it is a loud one, but only if it's on the High setting. It is not as noisy if it's on Low. The noise does not bother us at all since we find it soothing (we can't sleep when it's too quiet).

It works like a charm when our kids are sick, during those dry winter days, etc. It does NOT leak. It will if you put the tank on and remove it while it's filling up the machine... But why would you do that??

So, basically, all to say that it is a great product for it's size and it's price. And let's not forget durable!!

Honest reviews on Honeywell HCM-890B - Humidifier - black

I've been looking in stores & on-line for a small humidifier for my small living room. It arrived fast & in white instead of the black in the photo, but the same otherwise. I looked at the box b/4 opening & figured it to be a bit small for a 1 gallon tank... Welp, I got had! It states it's "2 gal output a day", NOT a 2 gallon tank. It is a 1 gallon tank that you must fill 2 times a day!?!? Really? Sadly, I looked back at all the other humidifiers I looked at (close in price)and they were all like this, stating a 'daily output' & not the actual tank size. All I'll say is be aware of that!! I did see these cute, colorful teardrop shaped ones for about $44, only 10 dollars more than I paid for this one. They clearly state a 2 gallon tank. I'm most likely going to keep this one for a few days & see how it works. If I return it, I'm buying a teardrop in pink! I can say for now that the high setting is very loud. I'm all for white noise, but this may be a bit much for most folks. Low is tolerable.

The machine does not leak as so many complained in previous reviews. I suspect they did not have the container on tight. It must be on totally correctly. In addition, I am sure that people are using tap water for the container when the reviewer complains about the filter. I used bottled distilled water. It only costs about 85 cents a gallon and is worth the money for this and any other humidifier. The primary negative about the machine is that it is quite noisy. I use it in my bedroom but not if I am trying to watch TV. It is far too noisy for that. Even the low position is loud. The high position is really loud. For the money, it is not a bad purchase if consider the negatives not relevant.

I purchased this product thinking I would get what was pictured, an OEM Aprilaire water panel. Instead I received a knock off product sold elsewhere on Amazon.com for $5. The product I received was an RPS Products BestAir Water Pad RPS #A35 Furn Humidifier Water Pad. I feel ripped off.

Amazon did quickly refund my purchase price as I did not get what I was promised. Amazon is aware that myself and others have had this bait and switch problem and I hope they update the picture and description to reflect you are not getting an OEM product as pictured.

I do not understand why people who were scammed still gave this product a good review. This is not what you ordered and paid for. I would give it zero stars if that was possible.

I cannot believe that Amazon lets these folks get away with showing an real Aprilaire replacement panel in the picture and then sending a cheap knock off product. It is a complete scam. Yes, Amazon refunded the money spent, but it really hurts their reputation.

The product I received was not the Aprilaire water panel pictured but a rather cheap looking knockoff. I did not return it because I didn't want to go through the hassle of navigating the return process.

Honest reviews on Aprilaire 35 Replacement Humidifier Water Pad

I bought this from "Complete Filtration Services" they did not send me the Aprilaire product shown in the image, but a non-OEM one by some other company.

It was inexpensive and it seems to be working fine, judging by the humidity monitor in my home, but I was not too pleased with the misleading image showing a different product than the one they actually sent.

You can spend $$$ to have your heating and cooling people come replace your humidifier filter, or you can buy this and do it yourself.

The box has clear instructions and it takes zero intelligence. It's about as hard as cleaning the lint filter in your dryerthe difference is you just toss out the old filter and replace with the new, obviously. From start to finish, it takes about three and a half minutes.

You should replace this filter no less often than once a year.

Purchased this at Bed, Bath & Beyond. Humidifier put out a decent amount of mist and was very quiet; much to my liking. I turn on the osculating function and the machine began to rotate back and forth, but began to make horrible grinding noises when it reach the ends of it motion as if it was trying to over rotate. I thought nothing of it and took it back to Bed, Bath & Beyond to exchange it for the same model. After unboxing the new machine, I plugged the humidifier into the wall and the wall socket and machine began to spark! I tried a different outlet and got the same experience.

I will be taking this humidifier back to the store and looking for something different; if two different models of the same humidifier can't work correctly for 5 minutes you should run!

This cool mist humidifier is great when it works. The first thing I found nice about it was the cool mist as opposed to the normal wet and heated humidifiers. One gallon lasts 2 days at a low to medium setting. A nice blue light can be turned on during the night. There is a convenient handle to carry the water tank part so you can fill it. This cool mist is much different from the warm, too humid common humidifiers that have to be filled at least once a day if not more. It serves about three rooms with the 120ยบ oscillating top the way my home is set up and where I placed it. I really liked the way it oscillates this made it comfortable throughout the three rooms it was humidifying. The light never came back on again after one of the times it was refilled with water. Then It began to make a slight strange clicking sound when it oscillated all the way to the right. I'm not sure what "ultrasonic" is supposed to mean here, but if it has anything to do with it being very quiet this was true until the light went out. I was wondering if it was worth taking back for exchange. I filled out the one year warranty/ registered it with Homedics. But the stores were pretty busy with Christmas shoppers and we figured we could live without the light.

BUT, I woke up to find the table and floor soaking wet, even though water was still in the tank and it was working as normal. About a half a gallon of water was all over. We could not find where they water was leaking from or what may have caused it. So, I turned it off and emptied the bottom and upper blue container. That's when we noticed it seemed to be coming from the seam (if indeed that is a seam, as it goes from bottom to top in a straight line. I thought we had a defect however I've now read reviews on this particular cool mist humidifier by more people who have had the same problems or other problems. It IS a great humidifier, but I'm very disappointed that it broke in this manner and I am going to see if anything can be done. Unfortunately this was not purchased at Amazon or fulfilled by Amazon. It was on sale at Bed Bath and Beyond for $49.99; they did have to go to the stock room to get it because there was only one left on the showroom floor. I'm wondering if they gave us the floor model. It's great however I'm afraid to purchase another for fear this happens again, especially after reading reviews here.

Learned my lesson! We bought this humidifier used "like new." When we put it together and turned it on the light indicating the tank is low came on. We could never get it to run. When we recieved it you could tell it had clearly been used ...definitely not "like new"

Honest reviews on HoMedics UHE-OC1 Cool Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I've used 2 humidifiers in my bedroom in the past, a Vicks & a Crane. The Vicks was noisy, like a fan. Crane was quiet.

This was my first HoMedics. The humidifier function worked well. One of the things that drew me to this one was the oscillation feature. Unfortunately, like some have mentioned, it does make an annoying noise. I can deal fine with the loud white noise that some make, or even a loud box fan going in a room, but anything else will keep me up all night. This was a big downfall. I wasn't a fan of the light either, I like a room dark when I sleep.

Overall, because of these 2 alone, I'm not a fan. If you don't mind the noise & light, it may work for you.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I wouldnt recommend this humidifier. I bought it to use in our bedroom but there are three problems--I found the light to be surprisingly bright in a dark bedroom, especially since I positioned the humidifier on the table that I face when trying to fall asleep.

Second was the sound. I'm used to normal humidifier sounds--even the louder coffee dripping type sound the large one in the living room makes--but this is more of an audible clicking sound when the oscillation was on.

Finally, if you live in a dry climate, expect to fill this every day or sometimes twice a day. It doesn't last long, even in a small room.

Its a good looking machine but, for the price, I wouldn't purchase it.

Review of Prestige Import Group the Chateau Small Humidor (Cherry)

Customer Ratings: 3 stars

At first glance this is not a bad little humidor for under $20 bucks. But when you compare it to similar priced boxes by company's like quality imports also available on Amazon this thing falls WAY short. The box is made of Very Little wood i'd say 98% of it construction is some sort of particle board. The inside is lined with the thinnest of cedar veneer and the outside paper thin almost sticker like cherry wood veneer. The Seal is a joke as there is not much of a lip to create a tight seal. I have a small unit from Quality Importers I got on Amazon that actually had small magnets inside the Real Wood lid and body that gave extra seal and was about the same price as this unit. My recommendation Even if you are a casual smoker or novice. Save yourself and your cigars the trouble pay an extra $5 bucks and get the Quality imports version.

This is a great buy! Much cheaper than available elsewhere! The only issue is that there is no instruction manual for how to fill the chamber and what to do, so you're on your own with that!

This product fits exactly in place and works well. I wish I replaced my filter sooner it was filthy. OEM has bracket attachment with "insert this way arrows" but this one has just black brackets not an issue since theres only one way to insert it.
