great product. It needs to be replaced twice a year or more according to my heating system engineer. water draining through the filter eventually causes it to clog and breakdown due to the minerals present in the water. When that happens there is the potential for pooling water to be drawn into the plenum causing flooding. so keep a few as spares...This not a fault of the product but rather well water sediments that corrode the metal.

This water panal is hard to find in stores. Cheaper ones are made from a fiberglass material,very bad for mold, and doesn't last. This water panal is coated and of hard materail,and longer lasting.Although the price is high, it's well worth it.

Its a good product at a good price. Came in plastic wrap, so the box in the picture is false advertising.

This is a good design. Easy to install, long lasting. The metal somehow seems to prevent the growth of mold/mildew.

This water panel can sometimes be a tricky item to find in retail. You typically won't find this in any big box type store and I have had a hit and miss affair with the Home depot type stores. You can easily order it from one of the stores located from Aprilair's web site but Amazon's sellers still had the best price and the return policy can't be beat.

Buy Hunter 31960 Demineralization Tablet for 31004 Humidifier

Hunter 31960 Demineralization Tablet for 31004 Humidifier
Customer Ratings: 2.5 stars
Buy Now
I purchased these because they were advertised to reduce the white dust that's endemic to ultrasonic humidifiers. After a couple weeks of use, the dust was in fact made worse. Furthermore, it caused the vapor to actually hang in the air so that there was a slight haze in the room. I suspect the tablets are mostly salt as used in any water softener, but there is no ingredient list on the packaging or anywhere else I could find on the internet. I suspect the tablets are only good for preventing the white minerals that builds up on surfaces INSIDE the humidifier (this happens with any humidifier type). It does nothing for the minerals that are vaporized and put into the air that later settle down all over one's furniture. Perhaps their performance is related to water hardness--but mine is not particularly hard. Exceptionally disappointing-I'm still looking for a solution.

I have a The Sharper Image EV-HD10 Cool Mist Ultrasonic 1-Gallon Humidifier with Clean Mist Technology and this tablet really only lasts for one gallon. I haven't been totally convinced that it helped with white dust but it seems to have helped kill any musty bacterial growth, which is good enough for me.

It might prolong the life of the humidifier or decrease smells and mineral buildup, but it does not eliminate white dust. Don't buy it if your goal is to do that.

The demineralization tablets packaging states it "eliminates white dust" amongst other claims. They not only fail to eliminate the white dust, using them in my humidifier created even more white dust. I emailed the Hunter company and explained my dissatisfaction with their product and the only response from Hunter was that "the tablets were not tested or approved for humidifiers of any other manufacturer" than Hunter. I responded back to Hunter and advised them that their packaging does not indicate they may not work in other brand humidifiers.

Therefore, if you own an ultrasonic humidifier that is not Hunter's brand, my advise would be to not waste your money on these tablets.

Honest reviews on Hunter 31960 Demineralization Tablet for 31004 Humidifier

I bought these tablets because we had been seeing some white dust on furniture and such, when using a cool mist humidifier.

After filling the tank and placing one tablet in the tank, I noticed that it dissolved in minutes not a week. I was careful to place in the tank AFTER it was done filling with water. So then after doing this and letting the unit run, we noticed a haze in the house. Not just some white dust but our house filled with a white haze. The white residue from these tablets is a whole lot worse than the white dust that comes without using these.

They were expensive considering they lasted for only 1 tankful of water. And the dust they created will be forever to get rid of.

Don't make the same mistake I just made......use distilled water or something else not these tablets.

I put in 3 of these tablets into my ultrasonic humidifier. I thought this would allow me to use regular water instead of distilled. Wrong. The tablets had ZERO effect. White dust everywhere. Complete waste of money. There ought to be a law against selling completely useless products.

Just like the original filter that came with my Eureka vacuum. Works great. I rinse the foam pad that sits in front of the filter after every vacuuming. I think if you keep the foam pad clean, it helps extend the life of the filter. I replace mine every two years since I don't have a lot of carpeting or pets.

Review of Marciano Dark Mahogany Counter Top Display Humidor 250 Count

Marciano Dark Mahogany Counter Top Display Humidor 250 Count
Customer Ratings: 3 stars
Buy Now
Medium sized humidors are hard to find and usually quite pricey, so I thought this larger humidor would be a great option for me instead of running two 125 count humidors, especially given the one glowing review on Amazon it has. First and probably most importantly, this humidor simply doesn't have the excellent seal the other review states it has. The seal at the doors is very shallow. The doors are held together by small earth magnets, which keep it probably about 97% sealed, but that 3% means my Cigar Oasis is not coming on 3-4 times a day as it should, but at least once an hour because of the shallow seal. My other concern is that very little of the inside is solid Spanish cedar: it is lined (and not even completely) with cedar veneer. While some veneer is certainly to be expected, I fear the humidity is going to swell some of the inside over time given lack of solid wood, too thin cheap cedar veneer, exposed manufactured wood (mdf?) on bottom of drawers.

I own a large humidor and had been struggling to maintain optimum humidity. I installed in it two large humidification devices made by Ashton. These devices were sold to me by my local cigar shop and were praised as the best on the market. The Ashton devices were costly and largely ineffective. So I began searching Amazon for a product to replace my unsuccessful Ashtons. I came across the Paradigm System PSH 3 and purchased it with much hesitation. When I first ordered one, there were very few reviews or information available online. In shear frustration I took a shot and bought one. When the PSH 3 arrived, I saturated it in distilled water as instructed and installed into my stocked humidor. Within ten days, my hydrometer gradually rose from 59% to 70%. The PSH 3 has maintained this humidity level for well over two months now. I have taken the unit out and inspected it and have found that it is completely free of mold (much to my surprise). I acknowledge that cigar maintenance is a tricky science and would recommend this product to anyone who seeks satisfactory humidity in their humidors.

All total I've probably spent $100 on different humidification products prior to buying the Paradigm System PSH3. I've tried sponge pucks, gel pucks, Heartfelt beads, and even just leaving in a washcloth or dish sponge dampened with distilled water (sitting on a plastic bag). After all the money I've spent, all the time re-seasoning my humidor, and all the wasted cigars that ended up drying out, I found this little gem.

I'm 100% glad I did. It is a bit pricey, but it's been worth every penny!!!!

I bought this in Sept 2011, and I've only just recently had to tend to it. It's kept my humidor at 68-69% humidity, even despite the change in temp between summer, fall, and winter.

The fact that this uses distilled water, instead of propylene glycol, makes this humidifier that much better! You can find distilled water nearly everywhere, and I think I paid less than $2 for a gallon. Propylene glycol, on the other hand, is more of a specialty item usually found only at cigar/smoke shops, and the last 16oz bottle I bought was $12!!!

My only gripe is the magnetic attachment plate, because the mounting tape is weak. The unit kept falling off the roof of my humidor either because the metal plate that sticks to the humidor came detached, or the magnetic plate that sticks to the unit came detached. After I hot glued the magnetic plate to the unit, and hot glued the metal plate to the humidor, all is well.

I would take away .5 star for the weak mounting tape if I could, but opted to give 5 stars anyway because of my overall satisfaction.

Best Deals for Paradigm PSH 3 Humidifier 125 Cigars

I purchased both PSH2 & PSH3 for my smaller and larger humidors and neither one sustains the level of humidity as advertised. I've also reconditioned both humidors in the hope that it would help, as well as moved them to different spots in my house. I've had to resort to supplementing them with disposable "pillows". Also, the plastic on the adhesive metal plates was very difficult to remove and it is annoying that the end caps don't stay attached and fall onto my cigars after i re-soak them. All in all, not pleased. Will be looking elsewhere for better quality.

This thing is very poor quality compared to the one I have that I bought several years ago that STILL works. This is made out of cheap plastic (old one was metal) the foam is very different and the end caps won't stay in place. Total crap!

Review of Honeywell HCM-1000 3 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier

Honeywell HCM-1000 3 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier
Customer Ratings: 3 stars
Buy Now
Getting another humidifier has become a regular 3-month affair in our household with three bedrooms. Every Walmart/Target brand either has the fan die, is impossible to clean, or the filter is pressed against the side so that water leaks out and ruins the dresser. I've given up on the diffusers since the electrode gets corroded and the moisture just hangs in the corner.

So, we've now grabbed a Honeywell (Humidifier number 8). There is a handle on both the top and bottom of the tank, so it's easy to fill and easy to place into the humidifier. The 3 fan speeds are evenly set (one humidifier had 2 "barely breathing" settings followed by "jet turbine.") The humidity setting is a nice touch, but we usually set it for full blast anyways. The fan grill easily pops off so you can clean the fan blades. The water basin is separate from the motor assembly, so you can conceivably toss the whole bottom frame into the dishwasher to clean out the usual water deposit build-up that occurs with humidifiers. The filter is pretty large and it is not pressed against any of the sides, so NO LEAKS. It's been happily humming for over a month now with no issues.

Yah...I'm happy! I'm writing this as I buy a couple more for the rest of the rooms. It's a great price for a surprisingly capable humidifier.

We own two of these, and have had no problems with either of them for the past 5 years. For us, they are perfect in the winter for our children's rooms and provide a consistent amount of humidity, a level which we are able to choose. There are 3 fan levels which determines how much humidity is "blown" into the air. The lowest fan level is a soft hum, with the highest being rather loud. In addition, you can customize the level of moisture control; from maximum to light. The machine stops once dry (but remains on) and an indicator light comes on reminding you to either shut it off or refill. Stock up on filters and know that you will need to refill the machine every other night (at least) when used at the medium level of humidity and fan.

This Honeywell humidifier works great. I live in the Northeast and bought this humidifier at the beginning of winter this year. It took almost one full week before it reached optimal humidity but it is now so much more comfortable in my house. I've bought other brands at similar price points and this is by far the best. To extend the life of the filter use the Protec cleaning cartridge.

Honest reviews on Honeywell HCM-1000 3 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier

The unit was bought to humidify an average size bedroom. It does it well, (with the door closed) provided it is run on medium speed; low speed just doesn't cut it. The unit is turned on a few hours before bedtime and runs the night.

The sound level at medium is quite acceptable as I like a bit of "white noise" to get to sleep. I can hear the TV at a lowish volume with the unit on medium, if that helps anyone gauge how noisy medium is. The noise level at high is too loud.

They offer a water treatment product to help breakdown minerals in the water. I was unable to find it locally or on Amazon, but the Kaz website sells it for about $3.00 for a small bottle, plus shipping. I thought it was too pricey and hope the filter lasts the season, at which time I'll discard the filter.

To its credit, it is compact and pretty quiet. I run it only overnight and a full tank of water lasts 2 or 3 nights. The major flaw is it occasionally overflows at the base when not in operation. Therefore, I have to remove the water dispenser every morning to prevent a surprise puddle of water on the floor during the day.

This is a very quiet machine. Works well but the water reservoir does not hold very much water and it is not an easy refill. I would call it awkward. You have to take the tank off the base and water always drips, then unscrew the filter (large white cylinder in the picture) and then fill from the bottom (upside down under a tap). Then you have to screw the filter back in and turn it back right-side up. Water invariably drips on the floor again no matter what one does.

I have a second one in the bedroom and it is very quiet and seems efficient. Just wish it were more user friendly for filling. The real test will be to see how long it lasts. My last humidifier made it through only one year.

ORIGINAL REVIEW: Tank broke the second time we used it. I called Sunpentown, however, and they were quite pleasant on the phone. They said they think it is the fan, based on what I described, and promised to send me another fan to see if I could replace it myself at home by taking apart the motor compartment with screwdriver. If not, I will have to send in the motor portion and pay for the shipping myself. That was 3 weeks ago. I emailed them again and they apologized and said they will get the fan out shortly. So far, I'm not impressed with this.

Having said this, I am very sad this is not working out because the design of the tank is AMAZING for cleaning. The hole is HUGE. This it totally unlike the Crane humidifiers shaped like animals. Invariably, my spouse or I neglect to empty the tank and then we end up with funk in the tank and no great way to clean it. Bleaching it seems counterproductive, as the tank will then end up smelling like bleach, etc. I tried cleaning the funk out with vinegar. Didn't do anything. So I was desperate for a new solution and this Sunpentown looked easy to clean.

So...I'll update everyone on what happens with Sunpentown customer service and whether or not they will fix this.

UPDATED REVIEW: See the comments section. Sunpentown sent the fan and a relative with mechanical experience and a special tool fixed it, so I didn't have to ship it back. Has been working nicely for months. Tank is so awesome and easy to clean. I am a woman and I can literally insert my entire hand into the tank to clean it :)

Like others have said, make sure you get all you need to install this right. The EP-036 only works with the Hamilton Humidifier Model 10 HF. Hamilton has their own web site (hamiltonhomeproducts.com) where you can find the product manuals and pictures of what the real product looks like with it's side rails. It is important that the pad be inserted in the right direction (black mark at the top on the original product) so the water flows through the pad correctly.

I've also had to replace the solenoid on my unit twice now, and I replace the pad each year but it continues to work great. It makes the whole house feel warmer, totally does away with static shocks, and helps to keep the hardwood floors in my house in great shape.

My previous filters had no metal frame. This one came with metal around it with perforations. I thought the perforations would work fine but like another reviewer, I found water all over my floor around the furnace. After removing the metal frame and putting the un-framed filter back in, it works great. This is very hard to find and I'd buy another. Hope this helps cross references these filters (as far as I know): EP036, 10HF, H7504, RH7504, FH-182.
