This really is a fantastic little set of oils. As other reviewers have indicated, the blends are neither too strong nor too weak; in most of the blends you can usually pick up on the "stronger" aromas right away (for example, in the meditation blend the sweet orange is quite noticeable) but never in an overpowering manner...all the components are very nicely balanced. To be completely honest, I simply cannot praise these enough. I've really enjoyed all of them. For those who have not the knowledge & experience (or the patience) for attempting to create your own blends, these bottles would have you really well covered. A couple of drops in your diffuser, etc. and the beautiful fragrances will lift your spirits.

Also a plus, you can tell that Eden's Garden is a smaller operation which really has a passion for its products. They shipped my order the same day and it arrived VERY quickly (unexpectedly quick, in fact). When I opened the package, they had handwritten "Enjoy" with a smiley face right there on the invoice! Might not matter to some but for me, I think it's really a nice little touch that can go a long way with a customer. Really a golden buy in my opinion...

I love this set of essential oil blends. The oils used in each blend really complement each other. As essential oils are meant to be diluted, these will last for a very long time. This company sent my item out immediately and it came in an adorable gift box. I think anyone using these will definitely feel pampered!

Aphrodisiac: It smells very earthy/spicy. It's a beautiful scent and I don't think that any of the oils overpower one another. I'm not sure how it works as an aphrodisiac, but I do like using this as a perfume when mixed with a carrier oil.

Breathe Easy: With a family full of seasonal allergy sufferers, this will be used a lot! I love the combination of oils in this blend. I've found that most company's that make a congestion-relief blend tend to go overboard with the eucalyptus. You can obviously smell eucalyptus in this, but it's not overpowering. It seems to help open up the nasal passages by reducing inflammation. I've added this to my toddler's bath before she goes to bed so she can sleep easier. My older children have used this in combination with a Neti-Pot so they could breathe at night. This is also perfect to use in a diffuser or in a homemade "Vicks" rub.

Renew: It's probably my least favorite of the blends, but it does make you feel more alert. I wish that this blend didn't use eucalyptus since I associate that particular aroma with congestion. My 11 year old likes this though as she feels that it helps her on test days. I made some into a spritz for her and she uses it whenever she feels the need.

Stress Relief: Seriously one whiff of this and you will feel at ease. (I think it's the grapefruit.) This is my favorite blend in the pack. I use this in my oil burner, in lotions, mixed in with coconut oil for my hair, etc. I have a son with an autism spectrum disorder and I find that this calms him when he's upset. Even though you can definitely smell the patchouli in this blend, it smells gender-neutral.

Relaxation: It smells basically like how you'd expect it to with a combination of chamomile and lavender. It is a sweet floral scent. It's kind of a classic. The lavender is full bodied and the chamomile is very soothing. (I've noticed that some chamomiles from other companies are a tad sickening, but this one is beautiful.) I made a homemade "bedtime" lotion with this blend and also add this to my toddler's bath to help her transition to sleepy-time.

Meditation: I haven't had the chance to use this oil out as often as I'd like, but this one is great for oil burners and diffusers. It smells like one would expect a meditation blend to smell like, or perhaps like a new-age book store. I'd prefer for the frankincense to be more prominent, but I still like this blend.

They came quickly in the mail (even shipped on a weekend) and arrived intact. They all smell very nice, seems to be good quality oil. My husband had some minor allergy flair up and used the Breathe oil in the diffuser he says it helped. I don't know how effective they are other than that but they do smell nice. With shipping it came out to a little over $4 a bottle which is a pretty good value; certainly cheaper than the closet place to me that sells these types of things.

Honest reviews on Synergy Blends- (Aphrodisiac, Hope, Purification, Relaxation, Stay

In the past few months I've attended four Young Living essential oils sales gatherings and have sampled many of the different oils that Young Living offers. I also have several bottles of Young Living oils that I've been using for some time.

The oils offered in the Edens Garden Synergy Blends sampler pack are very high quality and compare favorably to the Young Living oils I have used in the past. I can't decide which one in the sampler that I like the best because I truly like them all!

The packaging of these oils is flawless and the beautiful box is a bonus. My order was delivered half way across the US in a matter of days after I placed my order.

I will definitely order more Edens Garden products in the future.

The packaging and labels are elegant. The blends are wonderful, not overbearing, to my nose anyway. I can't smell them on myself after an hour, not sure if I'm used to it (I heard that's what happens when you wear essential oils, maybe only for patchouli...) or they just wear off quickly. Of the promises of each oil blend, I've only tried the "Breathe Easy," and it cleared out my nose. I don't know if I'd go off my asthma/allergy medication just yet...! Enjoy! Super awesome find, and a great price for 6 of 'em!

Whynter 5 in 1 Evaporative Air Cooler (HAC-100S) Reviews

I bought this based on the other 2 user reviews, and now I'm convinced these were created by the manufacturer.

There's nothing positive I can say about this product, but as for the negatives...

It has barely any effect on the room temperature when set to air-cooling mode.

It's extremely loud and obnoxious. Seriously, it sounds just like an idling lawn mower.

Emits a nasty, exhaust-like smell.

Save yourself the time and money, you really don't want this product at any price.

EDIT (6/10/11): My suspicions about the other 2 reviewers (Ken Manning, Dave Martin) at the time of my purchase can be confirmed by their reviewing and tagging history. Look for yourselfBoth have only reviewed this product (with a raving positive review of course), and have tagged every Whynter product with an assortment of positive/descriptive adjectives. Ken Manning even went so far as to tag several competing products as "defective" and "not cold". Well, I know what brand NOT to trust now.

I bought this,and it really does suck, it broke after 4 months and did not work that well in the first place, and it was really loud. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

After reading the other reviews, my story is hardly unique here. The product worked (marginally, I might add) for about 3 weeks before beginning one night to emit a deafening, grinding noise. I disassembled the whole thing to see if I could figure out the problem. Didn't help. I emailed Whynter customer service and after several back and forth exchanges with basically useless ideas to fix it, I got a return authorization to send it back. I heard absolutely NOTHING from them for over six weeks until I basically hounded them about the whereabouts of my unit. After TWO MONTHS of waiting, it finally arrived again. I plugged it in and was greeted by...THE SAME HORRIBLE NOISE! After over two months, they fixed absolutely nothing. It sucks. They suck. Do yourself a favor and DON'T BUY THIS GARBAGE!

Whynter Air Cooler/Heater/Humidifier

Timeframe: 2 months

My usage conditions: 51F to 78F, Humidity 60% to 80%

Functions used: Heater, evaporative air cooler, humidifier.

Design:

I selected this primarily for the design and color scheme. I did not want another white/beige appliance or some psychedelic blue or pink candy painted device. Conventionally shaped and subtle in overall appearance. Top marks.

Functionality: The Whynter air cooler is a misnomer, while it does a solid job cooling a 150square foot space, it does a whole lot more than cool. The heat was nice to have when the temperature dipped and the humidity control is very useful when dealing with dry air resulting from heater use. Intuitive and easy to control. The water tank at the base take a bit of jiggering to slide in and out but otherwise I do not have any issues with it. The filters built into the unit do provide some degree of purification. My room air purifier lasted about 30% longer before the indicator light came on. It is light weight and portable, but be careful when you move it with the water tank filled.

Quality:

Well built with softtouch controls. The remote control was responsive and fit nicely into the attached holster on the unit. Material is were primarily plastic. Easy to clean and maintain. Pre-filter is easily removed and cleaned. No fuss device.

Price:

Quite reasonable for all that it does. I would take this over 3 or 4 separate devices any day.

Overall:

One of my better purchases this year. top scores across the board.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 5 in 1 Evaporative Air Cooler (HAC-100S)

Never quite experienced an air cooler before, it is decidedly a good product that does well for the price. This unit does a good job cooling at a fraction of the cost of an air conditioner and without the power consumption or setup needed. Don't expect the room to cool down significantly, air coolers don't work that way. This provides superior comfort in a 15ft radius.

In fact, I prefer to have this on compared to an air conditioner on dryer days.

I'm not an uber technical person but from my understanding, what it does is to use water to and the cooling effect of an evaporative process. This is especially useful for sensitive or dry skin. Currently used in the bedroom but am adding an additional unit in the den.

Not real setup is required, just fill the unit with water and set it on, it makes an odd noise when the water bucket is empty but just fill it up again and you'll be fine. The louvers are a little flimsy but can be popped back into place quite easily. It's easy to move around and small enough to put in most spaces. Oh, and it comes with handy heater mode too.

It's expensive but you HAVE to have it for the humidifier to work in any kind of efficient manner. This is the best price I found.

I had to replace mine, this small piece of simple looking plastic is similar to a "T" used in aquarium plumbing... but 10 times the price. I decided I could use some kind of fastener to hold it in place, like a Red Green fix. Long story short, didn't work and the hose shifted slightly over a matter of hours causing a leak and a puddle to form around the back half of the furnace.

My advice, it's not overpriced compared to having water damage from trying to jury rig a cheap fix.

I accidentally threw this away when I discarded the old humidifier pad and a replacement was supposed to be over 200 dollars. I was able to putchase it here for about 70 dollars, and it works like a champ. I can't tell if there is any difference from the OEM.

Purchased for annual replacement of the filter for my Bemis console humidifier. I've purchased these in the past less expensive, fits and works great!

This is the filter from the humidifier manufacturer, not one of those phony so called oem filters that are poor substitutes for the real thing. This filter lasts a few years, which is much more than the off brand replacements. And the price is great!

The Bemis/Essick H12 is one of the few humidifiers out there capable of helping in anything other than a closed, small room. I've been using mine for over 5 years now with no problems, although I have a second one that requires I crank the knob almost all the way up to get a normal setting.

That said, the filters I've gotten have usually lasted about half the winter, which in our climate means that I use two a year.

However, now I've gotten a water softener, and as promised by the softener companies, I can just clean off the filter once and it goes the whole winter.

I also use a bateriostat and occasionally a water treatment, both readily available for humidifiers of this evaporative type.

Honest reviews on Essick Air 1045 Replacement Console Wick

It's very difficult to find accurate information about wick replacement with the humidifier I bought here on Amazon. This goes for both the instruction manual, which is vague, and the Essick website. I should add that I found no helpful information on Amazon as well since wick 1041's product description states, "Replacement superwick for 400, 500, 600, ED-11 series" and wick 1045's product description states, "Replacement superwick for H12 series." You may note from the review title that I have a Essick Air H12-400HB 3-Speed Whole House Evaporative Console Humidifier, Oak Burl. So, from the product descriptions, both work. From the reviews, which are usually very helpful, no one has pointed out which one is correct.

If you have the same humidifier as me, you may be thinking, "Can't you tell from the wick images on Amazon?" Not really. If there were only two wicks and it was process of elimination, I'd know 1041 was most likely incorrect as it doesn't have the little bobber clip at the top (the thing that shuts the unit off when water is too low). But, the image here also isn't very clear. That may be it up at the top, and it may not. I can confirm after speaking with customer service that this one is the correct one for the H12-400HB whole house humidifier because it does indeed have that plastic piece that extends from the top of the wick to hold the bobber in place.

I hope this helps other folks out so they don't have to do the legwork that I did just to find a replacement wick! I've attached a customer image of the packaging this came in for visual reference.

I don't know what has happened to their wicks, I have used them for years and each winter season I would just have to replace them once. This year every 3 weeks I have to put a new one in because they stop absorbing the water and become hard as a board.
