It helped, but didn't eliminate odor coming from an area rug my upstairs neighbor stored in the under stair closet in our condo foyer. I have it plugged in 24-7. Probably need something larger to keep the odor from getting out of the closet into the stairwell.

We purchased the SPT hot water dispenser as a replacement for a Tatung unit that lost its heating element after many years of service.

The SPT unit arrived with a dent in the housing, although the carton was intact. I suspect that it was shipped this way from the factory. It was not a large enough cosmetic defect to cause us to return it, but did nothing to raise our confidence in the company.

This unit has both manual and automatic dispensing, which is a nice feature. The manual pump is stiff and difficult to operate, however. The sides of the unit are warm to the touch, implying that it is marginally-insulated and so not as energy-efficient as it could be.

I ordered two. One of the dispensors was received damage and Amazon quickly replaced it. The dispensor is a good sized and is working with no problems. I like the special one-touch auto dispense feature, my previous dispensor only had the manual air pump. The dispensor is attractive and should be perfect in any setting. The water temperature holds well for the whole day for that extra cup of instant coffee or tea.

Please note that I recently joined the Vine program but this review is based on my own private purchase (i.e., I paid for it!)

With winter approaching I wanted to get additional humidifiers to help with making household air less dry. I have an old Holmes (an older version of the current Holmes HM1865-U model) that puts out a lot of moisture and has a humidistat. I recently bought a much more expensive humidifier from Brookstone but I found it did not put out nearly as much water compared to the Holmes and the expensive model was not much quieter.

After way too much research online and checking out models at local stores I decided on the Crane Ee-8065. I considered the digital version but for the price difference I did not see the additional value.

The manual version has a small footprint and sleek form-factor. It is incredibly quiet and the mist output can be adjusted. The warm mist does not seem too warm (compared to steam misters) and I mostly run it in the cool mist setting. I am not sure the warm mist would be that great at helping with a cold or illness compared to a true steam mister. That said, my main purpose was to find a quiet humidifier I could run at night. The Crane Ee-8065 has proven itself to be exactly what I need. In fact, I am going to buy a couple more to put in other parts of our house.

The only negative thus far is it is a bit awkward to hold while refilling the reservoir but this might have more to do with me becoming more used to it. The reservoir could be larger too, but then again that would mean the unit itself would have to be larger and I kind of like the smaller size of the unit itself; I can accept the trade-off between size of unit and how often I have to refill the reservoir.

I love the Crane Ee-8065 Crane Germ Defense Humidifier. We recently upgraded from the Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier, White as it was damaged due to a flood in our now older apartment. The advantages the Ee-8065 provides from other Crane humidifiers are that of the larger water tank and the ability to set the humidifier to that of a cool or warm mist. For the extra thirty dollars in price, it's a jump that's worth it. Especially when other humidifiers (that actually work) cost double the price if not more. However, there's one problem I have with the Ee-8065 that other reviewers have mentioned.

The lights on the unit. The blue light if the humidifier is turned on or the red light if the humidifier has ran out of water. Either way, the lights on the Ee-8065 could steer ships at night if placed in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. For a device that's usually on when we're asleep, the lights are way too powerful and overbearing. Anywhere we've placed the humidifier in our bedroom, it's almost as if we have an extra light on. Even when we cover the front of the unit with a blanket or jacket to hide the lights, the lights still power through it. It's not only annoying, but also a major inconvenience.

Other than the fact the light is more powerful than the light on top of the Luxor Hotel and Casino, the Ee-8065 is a great humidifier at its price point. Not only does it make it a lot easier to sleep at night, but the ability to clean it is way easier than it was on my past Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier, White. If you're in the market for a humidifier, this is one of the best ones to get. I would just be ready with a solution on how to cover up the lighting before you finalize your purchase.

Best Deals for Crane Ee-8065 Crane Germ Defense Humidifier - Manual, White

I read all the reviews for the electronic version and decided to go with the manual version. One major thing to note when you read the owner's manual, it states to not sit this unit on carpet. Unfortunately, the intake fan is on the bottom of the unit. Brilliant. So, given that all the other flat surfaces in my bedroom are wood, I had to find something flat to sit it on. It absolutely is NOT quiet. That fan has a very annoying whine to it. We have 2 other older humidifiers and they are far quieter than this one (but are unfortunately not made anymore). The light on the front is very bright. We aimed it away from us and it still was too bright at night. Possibly good for a kids bedroom, though. I tried both warm and cool mist settings, and really couldn't tell a difference. You could feel the warm mist right at the unit, so it was heating the mist. I gave it 2 stars because it really does pump out a lot of mist and humidified my medium size room well. So, I'm back to searching for the right combo of quiet, functional, and easy to clean.

Honest reviews on Crane Ee-8065 Crane Germ Defense Humidifier - Manual, White

I bought the electronic push button model. The one I have has 6 different buttons that you must reset everytime you use it as it has no memory. The only diffence I can see is that with this model there is no timer setting. Unless you need to set the timer setting (it turns off by itself when out of water) I would get this model. I wish I had thought about all the programing you would have to do each time you turn it on. You have to press several buttons up to 12 times to get it on the setting you want. This is alot of time wasted when you are getting ready for bed. Overall it is so quiet I don't even know it is on. I've only had it a week so I don' know about it's reliability.

I find this unit hard to clean. I get pink mold weekly in the tube which the fog comes out. You can't reach in there to clean it. Also, the base gets pink and has many nooks to clean. The brush provide does not fit into all of the nooks. Also the bristles are cheap and permanently bend after a couple cleanings.

The simple design of airflow onto the fog stream is nice. I wish more care went into the wells and spacings of the mating parts to make it easier to clean.

The level indicator turns the blue light on and off repeatedly when the water is about to run out. It makes a decent clicking noise (relay of somesort). That is annoying as it clicks on/off 1-2 times a minute for say 30minutes.

I love this little humidifier! It has to be filled about every 6-8 hours when on the high setting, but it does a WONDERFUL job of humidifying. My old humidifier had a gauge for humidity that had humidified air blowing straight on it. According to that gauge, this humidifier does a better job of humidifying the room from across the room than the old one did blowing straight on the gauge.

I live in Colorado where sometimes it seems like we have negative humidity. This little machine makes it comfortable to be inside our apartment, easier on the kids and my wife and I for breathing, and it doesn't have an expensive and unreliable filter/wick to change like our old Holmes unit did. To put it bluntly, this humidifier kicks our old humidifiers rear end. Plus it's about 1/3 the size and much MUCH quieter. It's also a lot higher in quality in both materials and construction.

Pros: Good Price... Quiet... Sturdy...Easy to fill tank...Absorption Sleeve(more on that later)...Big enough for small to medium size rooms...Built in Humidistat..Easy to clean..

Cons: Finding replaceable absorption sleeves was almost impossible.

The absorption sleeve is a great idea. It slides over the heating element and it makes the unit very easy to clean.. And it makes the unit much quieter than other humidifiers. Because of mineral build-up on the heating element with other humidifiers I've owned they would need to be fully cleaned after every 2-3 times of use. But with this Optimus most of the minerals builds up on the absorption sleeve, not the heating element.. I clean the sleeve every 2-3 times of use, which is a breeze. It just slides off and I clean it with running water, then slide it back on.. The heating element still needs to be fully cleaned, BUT not nearly as often as with other warm mist humidifier.. Because of the sleeve there is much less maintenance..

But damn, good luck finding sleeve replacements. And they probably will need to be replaced once a year or so..Amazon doesn't have them.. Nor does Optimus. Fortunately Optimus makes the same exact humidifier for Kenmore. And of course Kenmore/Sears doesn't have them either, BUT I found the sleeves on Ebay under the Kenmore part number, NOT the Optimus part number. A 3 pack for about $10.. So I'm all set for the next few years.

Anyway besides that this humidifier is top of the line. Easily worth the money.

I will admit that I was a bit dismayed at first when I set it up because it only worked for a few minutes and then the light for low water level came on even though it was full of water. I actually thought I have to send it back, but as a last resort I put it on a cookie sheet and it seems the surface I had it on was the problem (not level enough). Since then I have been very impressed, with a little practice I can get the humidity where I want it and the water will last for quite awhile. Also, maintenance on this thing is a breeze compared to other humidifiers I have owned. I am very happy and if I need a replacement I hope I can find one like this.

Honest reviews on Optimus U-32010 3.0 Gallon Warm Mist Humidifier with Wicking Vapor

I've used several humidifiers (2 different ultrasonics, another boiler, and an evaporative), and this is my favorite. I've been using it for about 2 months and it works great. It doesn't have the drawbacks of ultrasonic (water impurities are put into the air, low output, makes the ground around it wet, and short life), or evaporative (needs a fan, which is loud at any output other than very low, filter needs replacement and can grow mold), and it is better than the other boiler I used (this one has higher capacity, much quieter, and no need to add salt to the water). It uses more electricity than an ultrasonic, but it's being turned into heat which you'll need anyway. With this thing running and my bedroom door closed, I can keep the thermostat about 5 degrees lower than without it. The output is very good; it can turn at least 2 gallons of water into steam in 12 hours. I haven't found the humidistat to be useful. It uses a thick fibrous sleeve over the heating element to reduce the bubbling and gurgling noise, but the sleeve gets loaded with minerals. Of course this is much better than having those solids in the air as dust. I've been cleaning the sleeve with an CLR-type cleaner.

I feel like I read every review on every humidifiers before I ordered this one. They all had some good Feedback, and they all had a lot of Bad Feedback. I want the same thing everyone wants. One that works well for a long time with the more convenient features. Well, this one didn't seem to have any bad feedback. Although it didn't have much feedback at all so it must be relatively new to the market. I want to like it. What I do like. The water storage is a nice size. It works thru one night maybe two before refill. It's as easy and convenient to remove, refill, replace as it could possibly be. Very quiet operation with just an occasional water gurgle. I always run on maximum on speed and level. I also bought a cheap humidistat to monitor my results. I ended up moving the humidifier directly beside the head of my bed and the humidistat within 2 ft. The machine uses up the water, so it's putting it out. But I could never exceed 40% humidity on the gauge even with continuous operation. The Bad. I had to wedge a piece of plastic in the float safety switch to get the unit to even operate. The float prevents the unit from running if not level or out of water for safety. Idea is good. Operation No Good. Also used a big rubber band to hold the water tank and unit closer together so the other safety switch wouldn't prevent operation thinking water tank was removed. So....I can't recommend. I'm still trying to decide if I'm even going to keep it. But it does put the warm mist out quietly...........

Update..quit working and returned it

Had a new furnace installed and these were the filters the installer recommended. These are not a direct replacement for your fiberglass panel filters that most people have on their furnaces. You need a special housing to hold them and I had it installed with the new furnace, though I am sure it can be retrofitted to an existing heating system. Much better than those generic fiberglass filters. Noticeable reduction in dust when cleaning the house.

4-Pack: Boveda Humidifier 69%
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars
Buy Now
These are most effectively (and inexpensively) used to create a humidity ceiling. Traditional humidification units can easily create humidity. However, the real problem occurs when the environment inside a humidifier becomes TOO HUMID, resulting in irreparable damage to cigars, including mold. Because these packets regulate humidity by both releasing AND ABSORBING humidity, they can effectively be used indefinitely for the latter purpose (provided that there is a traditional humidification unit *creating* humidity above the indicated threshold of these packets).

Nothing is more depressing than moldy cigars. I just had to trash about $200 worth because my Cigar Oasis Ultra humidor was creating too much humidity.

I have only been using these for about a week, but they are great. They maintain 67% humidity in my humidor with about 25 cigars in it. I only put one package in the humidor instead of 2 to 3 like the directions say, but it works better that my old insert that had to have water added to it on a weekly basis. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who likes to keep cigars that will smoke the way thay are supposed to.

Best Deals for 4-Pack: Boveda Humidifier 69%

My homemade humidor now maintains 69% RH on the dot. I threw in a couple of traditional water pillows which would have sent the humidity up to about 77% thus creating a mold problem and ruining the cigars. One Boveda pack brought it back down to exactly, you guessed it, 69% in less than 8-10 hours ( perhaps sooner because I didn't check before then). I could not be more pleased and at the same time perplexed at the science/witchcraft? behind this great product.

Honest reviews on 4-Pack: Boveda Humidifier 69%

Quick shipping, correct product and amount, and it works great! Boveda packs are a very simple way to keep your humidor stabilized at your preferred humidity. I like the 69% because it keeps my 50ct humidor at exactly 65% and will only fluctuate to 64 and 66 when temp changes. Great product!

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for 4-Pack: Boveda Humidifier 69%

You just can't beat these Boveda packs for obtaining the exact level of humidity you want. Sealed in ziplock baggies they keep humidity exactly at the labeled humidity. How they perform in your humidors depends on how air tight they are.

The most important feature of these is that not only do they release humidity, they also absorb it when required. I prefer to keep my cigars at 65% humidity and most retail humidors are kept at 72-75% humidity. When these over humidified cigars are put in with a Boveda pack, it absorbs the excess moisture in 24-48 hours. I was amazed the first time I saw this happen, as the liquid in the pack turned an amber color (and gained a very nice smell) from what it absorbed from the cigars.

You can use these as a safety mechanism to prevent over humidification when used with traditional humidifiers.

And the best part, when they dry out, you can rejuvenate them!, Just seal them in a container with a dish of water (don't soak the packs themselves in water) This works best if you don't let them completely dry out.

I can't say enough good things about these Boveda packs.

I received this unit yesterday so this is a preliminary assessment. The reason why I needed a dehumidifier is the one that we have in our basement is literally 20 years old. It's so old, it doesn't have a piece of plastic on it but it refuses to die. While I didn't test the old unit for electrical draw, my monthly electric bills are too high. I unplugged/put on a timer every appliance that I thought could contribute and it came back down to my belief that my old dehumidifier is an energy hog.

Our basement is HUGE but I still only bought the 30 pint unit because I'd rather run a small unit more often than cycle a larger unit. Same concept as a house air conditioner and a dehumidifier is a miniature air conditioner. Besides, I'd need the Mother of All Dehumidifiers to completely dry the basement and that's not going to happen.

Even though the old unit had just been running before I installed the Soleus, the new hstat read 70%. I don't really care if that's accurate or not, the basement just smelled damp. I installed a drip hose to run into the laundry tub, set the hstat to 55% and went to bed. This morning, it's definitely drier but I didn't bother to check the hstat. I assume the unit ran all night.

The impressive point is that I used the same drain hose on both dehumidifiers and, subjectively, the Soleus is draining a LOT more water than the old unit. Plus it is VERY quiet.

Once I get the feel of the hstat sensitivity, then I 'll set it and forget it so I can assess the energy usage. I know that I could buy an energy meter but I'll just save the $50.

The unit is also light which is important because I put the unit midway up the wall on a shelf (to drain into the tub). The supplied wheels should move very well on carpets but mine is static. BTW, based on my own reading, the Energy Star rating means very little but it's better to buy an appliance with the sticker.

Thanks to all those who previously reviewed this product and helped me make my decision!

I've updated this since I've used the system for a few months. Previously, I was wrong in saying the blower stays on constantly when the dehumidifier isn't running. Not true, don't know where I got that. All I can say is....dagnabbit but this does pull a lot of water from the air, and it uses less electricity than my old one.

One year later and I'm at the point where I just leave it on. Works extremely well and I'm very satisfied.

It will soon be two years of nearly constant use (at least during the air conditioning season) and it performs just as well as when I first wrote this review.

Yup, two years now and it has been running perfectly. Good investment.

I received this dehumidifier a few weeks ago for use in my basement apartment that had gotten damp with all the rain this summer. It has been running non-stop since. It works great! I have been rotating it around the apartment into different rooms that need to dry out and it quickly fills up with water after a few hours beeps and I empty the bucket. the only drawback is that is does give off a lot of heat, which I guess all dehumidifiers do, but I still gave it 5 stars!

I use this unit in the garage to reduce humidity (obviously). I wouldn't want it in the living room or bedroom, it's pretty loud when running. It's an Energy Star unit but the difference in my electric bill during peak usage over the winter was easily noticable. But I have never used another one, so I can't really compare. It has withstood lots of usage since I bought it several months ago. It is simple as possible to use. I filled up the 30-pint bucket many, many times. Usually during the rainy season (Seattle, so that's about 8 months out of the year!) if I used it several hours a day it would fill up over just a day or two. So it really does the trick in pulling moisture out of the air. It wheels around, which is nice, even though it isn't that heavy for me it might be for certain people.

Honest reviews on Soleus Air DP1-30E-03, 30 Pint Portable Energy Star Dehumidifier

this little wonder does a great job. I use it in my 20x40 man cave and it keeps it very dry. It is a little noisy for my taste and when we are occupying it I usually shut it down becuase of the fan noise. Also if it is running the room temperature rises a few degrees over the week. We like it when its 67-68 degrees and if it is on all week the temperature stays around 71. I attached a garden hose to it and it has worked flawlessly over last month.

I've had this machine for about 6 weeks and have used it many times. It's great for small areas--mine's in semi-finished basement. I don't run it all day, however, since it sucks up moisture well in 4-hour intervals (one of 2 automatic settings you can program, the other being 2 hours). I tried running it longer a couple of times, but smaller intervals seem to work better. I also don't have it hooked up to a hose for drainage, but use the machine's reservoir instead (recycle the water on my garden plants). The auto shut-off is a great feature when the reservoir gets too full. This isn't a heavy duty machine (which may explain some of the negative reviews where it sounds as if machine is running a lot), but it pulls the moisture beautifully from my basement in, again, the short cycles that I program.

It's construction is solid (for plastic), the wheels work well and make an otherwise heavy machine easy to move around (not always the case on heavy molded plastic products), and the functions are fairly idiot-proof. I haven't changed the filter yet, so can't speak to that feature. Surprisingly compact and stylish as well. Will be getting one for my first floor next summer, assuming this one continues to purr like the happy little kitten it is right now...

I ordered these to get some cheap receiving blankets, so I wasn't expecting great quality. The blankets are thin and small, which was fine because we're using them mostly as covers and burp clothes, not for swaddling. However, two of the blankets aren't even square, the edges are off by about 6 inches. I would have returned them, but I took them right out of the package and put them into the wash, so we're just using them as very large burp clothes.

Not great quality, use more for burp clothes, too small for swaddling or a blanket but I don't know what kind of baby could be wrapped in this.

Honest reviews on Luvable Friends 4 Count Flannel Receiving Blanket Set

These are way too small and virtually useless as receiving blankets for swaddling. I have a 5 lb. baby and cannot even wrap her with these. However, they do wash up to be quite soft and decently absorbent. The one pack I received as a baby shower gift is now being used as second rate burp cloths (since I have really good burp cloths that I prefer more). The prints and color combos are cute enough. But the edges are not nicely finished and they just look of low quality. If you are buying receiving blankets to swaddle your baby, don't buy anything that measures less than 40" x 40". Check out the ones that the hospitals use. They are pretty big.

If you have money to spend, try Aden & Anais (47" x 47"). If you can sew, you can easily and economically make your own. After I got these, my mother-in-law made me nice big ones out of really soft flannel. I use them for everything!
