Review of American Wick AW4E Replacement Kerosene Wick

Customer Ratings:

This wick is a perfect fit for the 10KBTU radiant heaters made by Sengoku under model numbers CTN-110 and HM-110 etc.. They are a higher quality wick than the one that comes with the heaters, and I recommend that it be installed before suffering with the factory wick. These are also the same wicks sold by the famous kerosene wick expert Miles. A good buy!

Update: 3/6/2013 This wick does not have the line at the same place as the factory wick, it is higher. I thought this was a mistake, but I believe it is because this wick brings up more kerosene than the factory wick so it has to be set what seems to be 1/4" lower. I placed this wick at the same height as the factory wick, and there was no way to adjust the heat properly. Next time, I will trust the line on the product.

I bought these for the replacement on my CTN-110 heater and they work perfect. I must say that this is a perfect little heater for a small house too, sometimes we run this as our only heat source and it keeps our house at 71. So, if you have or want a heater like that....these are a perfect fit.

This wick is too small to fit the Mega-110 that I bought it for. Even the packaging said it was the correct fit. No the wick was way too small.

Old Mountain 10129 Pre-Seasoned 2-Quart Cast Iron Tea Kettle Review

Customer Ratings:

A good kettle for adding humidity to the air on top of a woodstove. Do not buy this for drinking (tea, etc...) it was not made for that; it develops an interior rust crust after about a week. I would buy this again for my woodstove.

This was a good buy for us. We live in Wisconsin and have a woodburning stove in our house. The kettle makes a noticeable difference and makes the air less dry. It also looks nice because it matches our black stove.

I guess the inside is not treated because it rusts pretty badly. The outside, however, stays nice and black. Also, it is pretty heavy to move so we have been taking a cup of water TO the stove to fill the kettle, instead of bringing the kettle to the sink.

The kettle arrive quickly and in good shape. While I originally wanted a larger kettle, I have to admit that this one is easier to handle than my old one. It says that it is pre-seasoned, but it began to rust inside immediately and even shows rust aroun the rim under the lid. One good thing about cast iron, though, is you don't have to worry about it boiling dry as you do with other kettles.

Like other reviews I experienced rust boiling water as instructed. Had to season it myself -not sure it was ever seasoned. Made in china. Don't trust the production standards there. Could have been painted for all I know. Good for use as a decorator item and humidity source with a wood burning stove. However, it will rust if used as a humidity source. I won't drink anything from it.

My humidor would not keep up on the humidity. It would fall down into the 30s before I decided I needed to do something about it. My humidor is a 150 cigar capacity so I figured this would be suffice. After about a week, the humidity level has only gone up to 55. I am using the mixture that they said would bring humidor up to optimal 6-70%. So far, no where close to where it should be. Kind of disappointed as of now. Will edit review if things start to turn around soon, but as of now, only giving two stars for this humidifier.

Discount Aprilaire 50 Sensing Relay, 24-volt

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $42.45
Sale Price: $25.89
Today's Bonus: 39% Off

Sensing current for the GA50 is 4.0 amps which seems acceptable. If your blower draws less than that, loop the common wire from your blower motor (usually the white one) through the bracket twice. The problem with this unit is the load rating. Minimum load is 0.12 amps, which again seems acceptable, but max load rating is 0.42 amps, which seems way too low. If the load rating was advertised, I would have never purchased it. My humidifier has a 0.5 amp transformer, which probably explains why my relay is now stuck in the closed position after running it for several hours. These relays should handle up to a 1.2 amp load if they are to be used with larger humidifiers.

I ordered an Aprilaire #50 Current Sensing Switch for my home, whole-house, dehumidifier system from the Buy It Now Store in Lenexa, Ks. The Aprilaire device was advertized on Amazon; the order, the acknowledgement, and the packing receipt all stated the product was made by "Aprilaire".

The device I received was from a company called "Generalaire". It looks the same as the Aprilaire switch, and may work. But is it NOT what I ordered. It is clearly a lesser-known brand than Aprilaire, and I have no idea whether the quality of the product, etc. are in fact identical.

I have tried to contact the Buy It Now Store and have heard nothing thus far.

Let the buyer beware.

My rating is for the store and the service, NOT the Aprilaire switch about which I know nothing.

UPDATED REVIEW:

The seller contacted me following the review above, and claims that Generalaire and Aprilaire are "the same company" but when asked if they could provide evidence for that, or that the device itself was identical from either company, declined to do so, saying the information must be out on the web somewhere, but that they did not have time to look for it.

Because returning the device was a hassle, I installed it and after two weeks, it seems to be working fine.

Nevertheless, it is not the product I ordered and paid for; and BuyItNow's behavior and response are clearly unacceptable. The company is not entitled to change products without announcement or explanation. The customer should get the product that was ordered. The packing slip was incorrect and misleading.

Honest reviews on Aprilaire 50 Sensing Relay, 24-volt

I bought this to control a 24v damper for an air supply. It work fine initially but then it was in a "continuously closed" position when the 24v power was applied. Testing with an ohmmeter while disconnected it shows open so somehow there's leakage that is sufficient to allow the damper motor to operate. Disappointed since I had to disassemble the Range Hood to get access to the relay and determine what the problem is. Range hood is to a 12' ceiling so it's not an easy fix. Time to figure out another solution I guess since I don't want to have the same problem happen again.

Does just what it said it would. I used it to interlock my humidifier to my AC unit. I put it on the fan commom lead so if the fan goes off it locks out my humidifier. It was easy to install and was made to work with the humidistat and water valve.

I am sure you could use it for other interlocks that use 24 volt AC as well. Just two wires connect in series with the water valve.

UPDATE: 1/4/13 It quit working last week end. I replaced it with a differential pressure switch I got on E bay. Don't know what happened to it but it just stopped working. I would use a differential pressure switch as I have yet to see a DP switch stop working if installed and adjusted correctly.

I like to use this type of product to add a pleasant scent in our home and yes, it does work. Different scents are available in this brand and I like the apple cinnamon aroma best. It seems to be the most robust scent additive out of the others available. It is simple to use but is best to add the liquid to the humidifiers water after filling the container otherwise foam is created taking up water space.

I only use this product on occasion because if you think about it, it is not a cheap way to fill your home/room with a pleasing smell. The concept is great but not affordable for me with constant use. You can add more liquid per gallon of water to increase the strength of aroma which is what I need to do for my satisfaction. For this reason, cost per gallon of water, I am rating this product with 4 stars ****.

Other similar products are available such as a tablet-type scent. Just drop the tablet(s) in the water according to the intensity of aroma you enjoy. However, this form of additive is not an economical option either. I have only found this type in a local store so far.

If you're like me wanting value for the money, it is not the most cost effective way to do so. But on occasion, I do find it worth the price.

My sense of smell is not what it used to be so take this with a grain of salt.

I have not been able to detect any fragrance from this product at all, even when using three times the recommended amount. Even when standing right in front of the air flow from the humidifier. Even after leaving home for 4 to 5 hours and returning. No fragrance.

Edit 2-17-13

I quit using this product.

This product foams a great deal. Very much like soap. In the bottle, it even smells like soap or detergent. The foaming causes my humidifier to make annoying snapping sounds, like the foam bubbles popping. Except they are louder and sharper. More like slight electrical arching. Small sparks. (It could be that the foam is getting into the fan blade, getting whacked, and making a sharp sound.) It makes me wonder if the foam is getting into the electrical components at the top of the unit. If so, this can only cause eventual failure of the humidifier due to mineral buildup on the electrical components.

This product also causes the impeller/fan to run very loud for some reason. I have to run 2 or 3 tankfuls of water in the humidifier without this product added before the impeller/fan sounds normal again.

I was looking forward to being able to add a scent to my humidifier so I bought 3 different scents. The scents smell wonderful in the bottles, but when I added it to the humidifier and turned it on I smelled nothing. I added more thinking that I didn't add enough and still no smell. I have added far more than recommended on the bottle and it just does not leave a scent once added to the humidifier. I was very disappointed. Now I have 3 bottles that smell great until you add it to a humidifier and then you get nothing.

I have ordered many Oxyfree adsorbers and this (it was a huge order) was my first experience with Oxysorb. One package came without a status indicator, I trusted it anyway. They did not function as my others, and were unable to create a small vaccum inside of small canning jars, even when I used two. Another package arriving shortly later (300cc) without any status indicator. My 2000cc adsorbers were unable to "finish off" the vaccum in my 5 gallon bucket of rice, and two in combo were unable to do it in a 5 gallon bucket of beans. The thing with adsorbers is that they must be packaged and handled right to be of high quality when they arrive at your home. A simple visual inspection won't work and it is often hard to identify a failure if you also used a foodsaver type of product. Do not trust your long term food investment to this product unless you know your stuff and can check for function. I recommend Oxyfree brand from known seller instead of this product.

This was my first purchase of oxygen absorber and unfortunately I didn't educate myself enough prior to purchasing. I wish they would've provided some guide for how many are needed for certain volume containers. In addition, I wish they were individually sealed. As they come, once you open the bag they ALL begin to absorb oxygen. You can re-seal the bag or place them in a Ziploc buy their productivity is greatly reduced every time you do that. My future purchases will be in smaller quantities with larger capacity absorbers.

Reviews of Boveda Humidifier 72%

Customer Ratings:

I have a humidor that can hold up to 100 cigars. I don't smoke regularly enough to check my humidor's humidity level every week as most cigar enthusiasts recommend and I absolutely detest the inconsistency of the traditional humidifiers most humidors come with (you know, that plastic black container with the sponge). In the past, I've struggled a lot to keep my cigars in acceptable conditions, and sadly, I had to throw away a few unsmokable cigars because of my lack of diligence. These Boveda packs have solved all my laziness problems. Whether you smoke avidly or occassionally, these things work like a charm. I've been using this product for over two years now and my cigars are in great condition. Weeks have passed without me looking at my cigars and I have never had any problems. Despite my love for these humidifier packs, the one thing I don't like (and hence the 4 stars) is the fact that there is no convenient place for them. You can't attach to your box the way would with the black plastic humidifiers and so I usually just leave the packets on top of the cigars. (these can touch your cigars without damaging them). Nonetheless, these do exactly what they say they do and so I highly recommend them to anyone.

These things are an awesome addition to your humidor and they definitely get the job done! I couldn't be happier with the performance that these packets have provided me. I have bought the 69% and the 72% for my humidor.

Just a note to prospective buyersMake sure you buy at least 2 packets. 1 for the humidor, and 1 more per 50 cigars you have. Exampleif you have 50 cigarsyou would buy a total of 2 packets. If you had 150 cigars, you would buy a total of 4 packets.

These things are easy, cheap, and they last 2-3 months. I highly recommend them. 5/5.

I use 2 packs of Boveda 72% in my 50 cigars humidor and it's simply amazing. These little things do the work and I don't have to worry about humidity in my cigar case. Just remove the plastic wrap and place it in your cigar case, you'll see how in a few days the hygrometer sets at 72%. NOTE: no matter if the pack is placed on top or above the humidor and even if the pack makes contact with your cigars.

Honest reviews on Boveda Humidifier 72%

No Fuss, No Mess, No Hassle No bull.

These really work, they will put out the correct amount of humidity and if your humidor humidity goes up too high, these will absorb excess (to a point).

Make sure you get the correct quantity to humidify your box as well as how many you need for the number of cigars you have in it.

**tip**

You may experience better overall results with some cigars at a lower humidity (I'm switching to 69%), AND IMPORTANT!! these need room for air flow, you CAN lay them right on top of your stogies or just about anywhere in your humidor, but just don't go burying them under a pile of cigars.

Also, regardless of what you read or hear.....these ARE re-usable, once the packet begins to get a little firm and at the early stages of it just starting to feel dry, get a clean dry sponge, wet it with DISTILLED water, and place the wet sponge and the old Boveda pack into a clean dry tupperware container and seal the lid, let sit for several days or until the Boveda pack feels supple and full of moisture, reuse at will.

your welcome

I use two of these in a coffee can to keep about a half box of cigars properly humidified. I've tried all sorts of sponges and humidors, but it all comes down to having properly balanced and stable humidity, and these puppies do the trick.

They last about 2 months in 40-50% relative humidity, so order appropriately.

I bought this humidifier to replace an old humidifier in our bedroom. This one is nice and compact for a 2.5 gallon model and is very quite compared to other humidifiers. My favorite feature is how long the water lasts. On high the humidifier easily runs the entire night and on low the humidifier runs from when we go to bed until lunch without needing a refill.

I previously had a Sears model and chose this because it was the original supplier. It has all of the features I liked from the earlier Sears: overnight capacity, nice water handling, and quiet operation.

Alas, it has the one real pain I did not like about the Sears the finicky safety switch. This exists on the side of the unit to detect the presence of the water tank before engaging the humidification power. However, one typically has to keep fidgeting with the tank to get the switch to work. On the Sears unit I got so frustrated I simply wired it out of operation.

My old Sears suffered a cracked base and started leaking but only after many hours of service, so I'm willing to give this unit a chance (plus I had leftover filters...). Take the manual's advice and only use distilled water. Mineral buildup can be a real problem to keep at bay if you use tap water.

So far so good. Humidity on a cheap barometer goes from under 20% to about 50% on high for awhile. Helping me sleep immensely. Had to put it on a flat surface for it to work, fills extremely easily. Also seems to warm room quite a bit but might be a comfort level thing.

Honest reviews on Optimus U-32000 2.5 Gallon Warm Mist Humidifier with Wicking Vapor

I didn't know anything about humidifiers or what the big deal was. My 5 year old has had trouble with coughing at night for quite some time, but recently it got to the point where she coughed so violently that she vomited. This happened on two different occasions a week apart, so we headed to the allergist (she is allergic to house dust or dust mites more likely). The allergist told us that a humidifier would "probably help." Now we use an inhaler every night, and run the humidifier on high all night in her room. On just the first night she slept 4 hours past when she usually wakes up coughing. I didn't mean to test it, but tonight something happened with the water properly filling the bottom section, so it didn't start humidifying... sure enough, at 1am she woke up hacking, asking for a bowl. A simple removal and re-set of the tank and the humidifier was going again, and she's fast asleep.

It runs quietly. Tank is easy to fill, and can run on high for a good 10-12 hours.

The only thing I'm not crazy about is the "Wicking Vapor System" ... basically there's a little felted sleeve that fits over the heating element to catch the minerals and gross stuff in the water I guess. You're supposed to rinse the sleeve every time you use it, but even so, mineral deposit builds up around the top of the heating element. I'm using filtered water, and the sleeve is still caked with brownish mineral deposit that you're supposed to rub away with your fingers under running water. Just kind of gross, and a little more maintenance than I expected. I guess it's nice to know that junk isn't in the air though.

UPDATE: The sleeves are available in a 3 pack for $15 here on Amazon. I used 1 sleeve for 3 months, running humidifier daily with filtered water, before replacing. I also manually chipped the mineral deposit off the heating element unplugged of course but it was super thick in places, like 1/4 1/2" thick. I can't imagine it really functioning properly over time if those deposits are not removed.

The humidifier works fine and is easy to take apart and put back together. The tank and base are easy to clean, but not the main unit. THe heating element gets encrusted with junk. I empty the unit and clean the filter pad which encases the heating element but the element itself get encrusted. The instructions say to use distilled water but this would be prohibitively expensive as the thing is on all the time.

This co-sleeper is everything that they promise. Our son slept in this until he was 14 months old. "Mini" is kind of an overstatement. It is very generously sized and easy to put up.

The sheets are well made and easy to change. They aren't Eqyptian cotton by any means, but, fit the bed and do the trick. The sheets fit perfectly (and snugly) around the mattress and then velcro to the mattress itself, so it is extremely safe. The matress and sheet combo then attach securely (with velcro) to the bed. It does not lay flat though it has a slight curve to it but the baby has never noticed.

The ONLY downside to this mattress/sheet arrangement is that the mattress is not waterproof. You MUST have a waterproof pad underneath the sheet as the mattress is also not washable. Trust me, get a crib sized waterproof pad and cut it to fit. One the size of a pack-n-play mattress should do it.

Overall, this product deserves RAVE reviews it is just perfect!

Honest reviews on Mini Co-Sleeper

Yes, you read it correctly, this co-sleeper, doesn't require assembly. Shocked to receive the box and it says no assembly, couldn't believe my eyes. The setup took less than 5 minutes to do, yes it was just that easy, didn't even need to open the manual, awesome. The actual crib / bassinet is big enough for up to 6 month baby, wish it was a bit wider, then it'll last even longer. The packing is very smart, I was able to pack it up and take it with me on a trip without a fuss, and the baby can sleep comfortably just like she is home. You don't really need to use the extra leg or wheels, some shorter beds will work better without it, and if you have a tall bed, then use the wheel and legs to make the co-sleeper taller to fit.

Overall an excellent constructed piece, secure feeling, smart design, good storage area, probably if there is one complaint would be the mattress is a bit on the thin side. You can fix that with some extra thick blankets or sheets to wrap around it for more comfort.

When my husband and I found out I was pregnant his only request was that we get a portable cosleeper bassinet that attached to the bed and could fold up for travel.
