These filters do not seem to work well-certainly they do not wick nearly as well as the originals. Try to reuse the old ones.

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.

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.

Honeywell QuietCare PermaFilter Humidifier, HCM-800 Review

List Price: $69.99

After years of replacing cool-mist filters, I wanted to try a humidifier with a so-called permanent filter. The noise is not really any more bothersome than other cool-mist humidifiers on the market. The problem with this product is the filter system. For the first month or so, I was able to keep the filter clean per the product instructions. But then, as with all cool mist humidifiers, the filter accumulates dust from the air intake and other mineral deposits. Unfortunately, it is absoultely impossible to clean the deposits and debris out of the interior wicking of the filter. The manufacturer's instructions say (in fact warn) only to clean the unit using vinegar...well, that method only works for some of the mineral deposits for the first 4 weeks or so. Plus, even with the vinegar method, you can't get the particles washed out of the interior of the filter! So after 3 months, the perma-filter doesn't retain sufficient moisture to effectively humidify the air. You are better off buying a regular cool-mist humidifier with a filter that can be replaced every few months. It will save you time, money and frustration. I have never written a review of any product before but this product is so poor that I felt compelled to do so at this time and warn others not to make the same mistake I made. This is truly one of the worst products I have ever purchased.

We bought 3 of these humidifiers last year for all our bedrooms. Even though it was a big chunk of money, I was tired of continually having to buy replacement disposable filters for our previous humidifiers (Holmes). Three at a time got expensive!

We were so excited to use our Honeywell humidifiers, and they worked like a dream. During the winter our kids had serious coughs, and we could adjust the humidity output to make the room extremely humid for them, and keep it at a medium level for ourselves. They worked wonderfully, and I was 100% satisfied.

As time went on, I realized cleanning them was quite a chore, and using vinegar (to remove hardwater buildup) did nothing for the moldy smell. Rather than use the 1tsp of bleach (recommended), I found I had to use at least 1 cup to get rid of the mildew smell. After cleanning the filters like this about 6 times, they became quite degenerated, and no longer held enough water to get moisture adequately into the air.

Frustrated, I (then) read reviews and heard you could not buy replacement filters. However, I decided to call Honeywell myself, since I couldn't bring myself to throw away 3 expensive humidifiers. I called Honeywell's Customer Care (1-800-554-4558) and found out you CAN buy replacement filters, at $24.99 each, with 6.95 shipping (for any size order).

Despite the filter issue, my overall opinion is that these are still terrific humidifiers, and I'm glad to continue using ours. However, beware that the filter will not last the life of the machine even though it's considered to be a "permanent" filter. Going forward, I'm going to be sure to stay on top of cleanning mine out (at least every 2-3 weeks), in order to be able to use less bleach and extend the filter life.

Even if I do have to replace the filters every year or 2, in the long run it's still alot cheaper than buying disposable ones monthly. And you'll enjoy a very nice humidifier (with multiple humidity settings) in the process.

I purchased this product at a retail store recently and overall I think it's great. I was concerned about a line in the manual that said to discard the filter at the end of the season, but when I contacted Kaz / honeywell about it, they said it was a misprint and with proper care the filter will last for the life of the product. Makes sense since that's what is advertised on the box! They got back to me quickly, too.

The machine is not silent, it's got a fan on it which to me provides some nice white noise to block out odd noises that might bother my sleep. It obviously puts out a lot of moisture because I have to refill the tank once a day, and that does as well as the crappy old vicks vaporizers that I used to use...those things were terrible. They made boiling bubbly noises and started to spit when they got old. 65 bucks for the Honeywell isn't cheap (not to me anyway) but the cost was worth it so far. I haven't had it very long yet so we'll have to wait and see how it does in the long term.

Almost forgotthere is a dial control for humidity level; the window is green when the humidity is right, and blue when the humidity doesn't match the setting on the machine. It amounts to a nice night light since I don't know or care how it functions; I just leave it on high all the time.

Honest reviews on Honeywell QuietCare PermaFilter Humidifier, HCM-800

Ok, so here is the straight dope on the filters.

Basically, this unit operates under the same principle as a whole-house humidifier you would find in a forced-air heating system. So the "filter" is the same thing as a humidifier pad. The HCM 800, since it is self-contained, just uses its own blower, and the unevaporated water coming off the pad (filter) is recycled, rather than sent down the drain. So it is a given that you will get some amount of scaling throughout the system, and mold, etc., on the humidifier pad, just like in a whole-house unit.

I wouldn't try cleaning and then reusing the pad in a whole-house humidifier, and I wouldn't try do the same with the pad in these, either.

The good news, though, is that replacement humidifier pads are readily available, and cheap. For this unit, just get (for example) a HC22P humidifier pad, cut it down to size (about 6x9) and stick it in the plastic housing where the old pad came out. The pads are flexible when they are wet and are easily taken out and installed without damaging the rest of the unit. The HC22P is about $9 at Home Depot. You could get a bigger replacement pad and cut it into several replacements for the HCM 800 if you wanted to get it even cheaper. They cut adequately with a scissors, if you don't have a band saw handy.

Overall, the buildup on the HCM 800 isn't appreciably nastier than what you find in a lot of whole-house units, when they get serviced. Ok, those are pretty nasty, sure, but that is the price you pay if you want to avoid the fine mineral dust of a piezoelectric mist unit. Nobody gets humidified air without paying some sort of a price.

Discount Quality Importers Cigar Caddy Crystal Humidifier, Large Crystal Gel

Customer Ratings:

I have a medium 120ct humidor and it barely keeps my cigars at 65%. Every day I have to keep checking to make sure the level doesn't drop and leave me with dry cigars. I can't complain too much because my cigars feel fine to the touch more so than they did with a sponge insert. However, I am concerned that during the winter time as it get's pretty dry where I live at times that the humidifier will have a hard time keeping up.

This thing fits perfectly in my humidor, so it's not an issue of whether or not it is sized appropriately. It may have been because I threw in a mixture of 1% propylene glycol (hardly any) just to play it safe (it says to only use water but I doubt the amount of PG I put it would hurt), or it just really doesn't do it's job.

I'd recommend a smaller crystal humidifier if you're going to use this one, just as a supplement, or maybe a smaller sponge humidifier to get you at that 69-70% you may desire.

I'll probably exchange mine for a different one to see if it was the propylene glycol that limited the function or not.

Hi there shopper,

I recommend the product. It arrived as pictured and it worked just fine. I would note that the magnets are on both sides on the back instead of just in the middle like most other products. This gave me some minor issues.

This product works exactly as described and has been working great in my 12'' by 16'' by 5'' humidor. I can go about 2 weeks before needing to refill and my humidor is not very full, adding cigars would help to make for fewer refills

Honest reviews on Quality Importers Cigar Caddy Crystal Humidifier, Large Crystal Gel

I am currently running 3 humidors the largest of which holds 100 cigars. They are at least 5 years old and weren't that expensive to begin with. They all have a tight seal however. I just started back on smoking and storing cigars. As much of a hobby as anything else. I used to have an electronic humidifier which was incredible,but it died. It would cost about $110 to replace. I've tried all the options crystal jars, hydropacks ,etc. and for whatever reason this one works the best for me. I seasoned all my humidors before using them and just added distilled water to the unit. Keeps my humidor at 72 % (humidistat is calibrated) and so far I only have to recharge this unit about once every two weeks, and it is opened daily. I'm ordering a second one to see if the success follows in the larger humidor

Rps Products Inc 32Oz Wtr Treatment (Pack Of 6) 1T-6 Humidifier Review

Customer Ratings:

This product has been wonderful in helping to maintain my new air washer. It is easy to mix and helps with the mineral heavy water in my building. I've been able to bypass distilled water since I got this. I do periodically use filtered water anyway (mostly when I just cleaned). As labeled, I use this in a evaporative air washer.

This water treatment for evaporative humidifiers is wonderful.

I used it last year for my whole-house Sears humidifier.

One set of filters lasted all of the heating season here in Connecticut.

There was absolutely no scale build-up anywhere in the humidifier.

It was all trapped in the filters.

I'll be ordering all of my humidifier supplies from RPS from now on.

Thanks so much, RPS.

While the humidifier is quite loud (my dog doesn't hear me coming home when he is in the bedroom & it is running), but I don't mind the noise, I like the white noise when sleeping, it's the fact that the box says "Runs up to 24 hours". I fill it up (it doesn't take a full gallon of water, just under) & run it on low, and it will be very close to empty after 7 hours. And yes, it does say cool mist, but because of the fan, it is very cold! I use this in the winter & really don't need the added cold in my bedroom. Cool, I could handle, but this is a bit much.

I bought it during a sale, but I am so disappointed about this purchase. First, it's super super loud. I cannot imagine how a humidifier can be as loud as this. Second, the mist is distributed by a fan which blew into the air and it's really cold! I only need humidifier in the winter and I do not want to put a "fan" into my room to lower the temperature. Very disappointed!
