Warm Mist Humidifier Color: White Reviews

Customer Ratings:

My daughter got this humidifier and I liked how attractive it was. I live where the winters are very cold, so with the heat on all the time the air gets dry and creates electricity in the air. The result is it makes your hair stand out, and you can't touch your pets without shocking them. I wanted a humidifier that wasn't an eye soar in the living room.

I ordered one for myself and am very happy with the appearance, how quiet it is, and how wonderfully it works. I reccomend this product.

I had been pricing and comparing the substantial number of humidifiers on the market and I am glad I settled on the Air-O-Swiss. Despite its higher price, I am quite satisfied with its functions, control, design and specifically, its quiet operation. I was looking to pay between $70-150 for a quiet, low-maintenance model to add humidity to my [very dry] 10x12' bedroom. I purchased it at a local store for the same price as listed on Amazon; I am glad I was able to see [and hear] this model in operation.

There is NO sound, even at the highest setting. I'm a light sleeper and cannot fathom a bedroom appliance that even approaches a dull hum.

The visible mist generated by this model is pleasant for me and my pets.

I have been refilling each morning, as I have had the device on a high setting and running nonstop.The compartment becomes about half-empty after a full day at this setting. Refilling is a snap.

The ability to have cool and warm settings is a big plus, since the jury is still out regarding the negatives and rewards of either mode.

The system has been running clean and I am certain this will continue to be the case with a modicum of effort. The cost of the filter and the silver stick is not intimidating and the recommended three-week maintenance check is reasonable.

The design is quite fetching. Minimalist and fetching.

I have it sitting on the floor and there is no dampness on the carpet as mentioned by owners of other brands. This tells me that this model is doing a good job of propelling the mist into the air.

My roommate recently paid $29 for a smaller Holmes humidifier. The Holmes is downright deafening and I am sure she would have paid the difference for an Air-O-Swiss. Silent operation is really important.

The only possible shortcoming is the hygrometer. It is not entirely intuitive: the machine is to shut off after the desired humidity percentage is met, yet I have yet to see the model shut itself off. Turning it off manually is not a big deal.

I took a big step purchasing an air purifier, but this purchase has made a significant difference in my bedtime and bedroom comfort. I've had some winter nights with seriously labored [allergy, smoke and pet-related] breathing but I find this device has given me a little peace of mind and tangible change.

With not having much experience with buying humidifiers, I purchased this one based on some online research and with the help of user reviews. I was very worried about the noise factor that comes with having a cool mist humidifier but this one passes with flying colors. I'm a very light sleeper and require almost total silence in order to fall asleep. I can't even tell that this machine is in the same room! I love the fact that it can be switched from cool to warm mist at the press of a button and that I can control the amount of mist and how fast or slow it comes out. The only downfall that I've experienced is how difficult it is to keep clean. The still water that sits in the unit's base will have a black build up. This same build up is located at the base of the blue, water-holding section, as well as the tube and attachment the mist comes out of. The machine comes with a small brush, which does not do the job. By running pressurized water over the build up and using a long tubular bristle brush I can get the unit semi-clean. If any one has a better method, please let me know.

This product has a fatal flaw it has a mechanical hygrostat to control humidity. It's basically a spring loaded device. It doesn't work reliably. You set the humidity level one day, but as the spring adjusts to its own tension, its humidity control stops being accurate.

I had to return my unit 3 times. Each time they replaced the return with a brand new unit. But each one eventually manifested the same problem. *It is a design defect.* Fortunately, the device has a three-year warranty. If you are the type of person who demands that their purchased products work as expected, you will need this warranty. I had to return my unit at the end of every season.

Unfortunately, the company threatened to stop honoring the warranty because I had returned the unit so many times. Rather than send me a unit which would work reliably, they took the tact of blaming me for returning the defective units. They never claimed that the units that I returned were working at spec.

You may not notice the problem if you have the unit in a large room, but in my case it was used in a small, approx 8' x 12' room with a closed door. At the lowest humidity level setting, the room would eventually get very humid, the level couldn't get dialed down, and I had little control over the level of humidity. Because the unit doesn't have a digital readout of the humidity level, most people wouldn't notice this. But I checked the level against a stand-alone humidistat.

If the hygrostat worked, I'd give the unit 4 stars it's otherwise a fine device. I'd echo the sentiment about the tank. I think someone in Marketing told the engineers to design the tank with a visually appealing rounded top. But it's a pain to refill. You have to always hold onto it while filling it. It will not stand up on it's own. It is cumbersome to refill and will fall over if you let go of it. It's always a two-handed operation to fill.

My advice would be to try one of their units with a digital humidity level readout. I haven't tried them myself, but I'm guessing that the hygrostat on those models will be more accurate and thus, useful.

Honest reviews on Air-O-Swiss AOS 7133 Ultrasonic Humidifier - Warm and Cool Mist

I am very happy with this purchase. I can't imagine another unit outperforming this one.

Pros:

1)High design; the prettiest, sleekest humidifier you'll find. Everyone who sees it compliments me on it and it's become a very popular acquisition.

2)High output: produces a thick, steady stream of humidity. When on highest setting, outpaces volume of other cheaper units.

3)Great customer service: I had a hairline fracture in the water tank and the Air-O-Swiss folks replaced it within days; it was very fast service and completely hassle free.

Cons:

1)After 2 weeks, I discovered a fracture in the water tank causing water to leak out onto the table.

2)No hygrometer/hygrostat display so there's no way to know for sure what degree of dryness you need to compensate for.

3)Water tank is a little on the small side and needs to be refilled often Very often if highest volume setting is used.

This humidifier is fantastic but I cannot get rid of the white dust. Despite the fact I'm replacing the desmineralization cartridge regularly, this humidifier is producing a lot of white dust.

Cheap Auramist AM11MF30-1 30 Inch Mist Fan Cooling System, Black

Customer Ratings:

First I will review the 30" Auramist Misting fan. It was simple to assemble and I used the U Tube assembly site. While it could be little better, it is a lot better than the written instructions. I assembled it in about 30-40 minutes by myself. I had one small issue after using it for a day and called the company. The issue was the air line was much shorter than the water line that connects at the quick connect. I was directed to another person and he also answered immediately. After sending a couple of photos from the cell phone, he told me to pull the airline supple tubing very hard, that it may have a crip inside the housing. I did as he recommended and it fixed the problem. The line gained about 2 inches and then seated into the quick connect easily. It made a big difference in the performance. I love this fan after a month. I live in Texas and we are getting up to the triple digits already. At first I was worried about the complaints that it was noisy, but it is not near as bad as expected. It sounds like a fan. We have a lot of wind here and you will not get the performance you desire if you do not use the wind to your advantage. I built a cart with bigger wheels and a handle to move it around and that has worked out great. If the wind is blowing from the south, place the back of the fan facing south. This will give you great performance as you can use the wind to keep the mist in a straight pattern blowing North. I think you get the idea. If you try and use the misting fan facing into the wind, the mist will just blow away before it gets to you. On the covered patio, it will shoot a good 20 plus feet. We ate out on the patio yesterday (100 degrees)and it was terrific. No one was even sweating. I have also used it to blow over us while we lay in the sun on the lounge chairs. Having the fan on the cart makes it a breeze to move around. I highly recommend this fan. It works well.

Amazon Experience: It was a little frustrating, but they hung in and finally we got to a level of satisfaction. I was shipped 3 fans, first was damaged by UPS. Without a long explanation, if you note on the Amazon Site, they offer this exact fan at two different prices. One for $599 and one for $699. Exact same fan as I got one of each. You do not have to be too smart to pick $599. The $599 is the exact same product number, but the specs say it is 18". Auramist does not make an 18" model. It is very confusing to the CS Group as they are just order takers. Bottom line, we finally worked our way through the problems and I am happy. At the time I was very frustrated as some CS Reps are excellent and some just do not know how to resove an issue. I love the fan, so that helps smooth over frustration with Amazon CS to get the returns and paperwork right.

I have owned this fan for about one year now and although it operates well, the water the mist it creates has severely rusted the metal parts of the fan including the on-off chain and the metal rim around the base. A fan of this price range should be able to survive in the environment is meant to operate.

According to the manual, Automatic Shutoff: The Misting Fan has a built-in safety feature to prevent water and air pump burnout. If the system is run dry the pumps will shut down prior to overheating." Last night, the water ran out and the fan ran for an additional 2-3 hours. Today, I refilled the tank and despite priming it, no water would come out.

I spoke with a very nice woman from Auramist who told me that she had no idea why the manual says this and, after checking with her colleagues, informed me that there is no automatic shutoff and that the pump had likely burned out. They are sending me a new pump. Of course, I will have to install it myself. Not impressive.

Also the adjustment between wet and dry was impossible to adjust accurately. Either it ran with a great deal of wetness or the water shut off completely. The idea of the fan is great but the engineering (to say nothing of the manual) is woefully lacking.

UPDATE: they sent the new pump. No instructions. I had my3 sons who spent 45 minutes with it. Two days later, it's not running again. It's not that this particular unit is bad: it's the engineering itself. What a disgrace this company is.

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.

Item: BestAir Extended Life Humidi-WICK.

Rating: 4/5 (good)

Changing humidifier wicks (for "evaporative" type humidifiers) is a necessary evil and recurring annual expense. It's necessary because after a few short weeks, the hardness in your water will be left behind as a precipitate in the wicks, turning them hard. Also, bacteria and mold/mildew can begin to build up, causing an off-smell and discoloration. These things will occur no matter which brand of wick you buy, so the only essential criteria that matter with regards to buying wicks is:

* Do they fit your make/model of humidifer ?

* Do they have a good evaporation rate throughout their lifespan ?

* Do they maintain their physical integrity (i.e., not fall apart) ?

* Are they a decent value, compared to similar brands ?

In my case, the answer for this brand appears to YES on all 4 counts. Previously, I'd always bought Holmes HWF-100's, but as of this writing these are less expensive. This package includes 6 filters (3 pairs), which in my region is enough to last me one winter season (just over 1 month per pair).

Recommended.

p.s. Terminology nit: amazon, and various vendors and reviewers frequently (and erroneously) refer to these as "filters". They are, in fact, "wicks". Any filtration that occurs happens indirectly, as a result of the wicking and evaporative process.

I bought the filter for a Holmes humidifier. The filters are backed with aluminum which makes each panel more sturdy, however it also makes it pokey. Not enough to injure but not very comfortable. The filter pack has plastic clips that are intended to hold the filter to the filter insert. They are slightly ridiculous, but the filters work without them on my model. The filters hold water well and work as expected. I liked that they came in a pack of 6. My humidifier takes two at a time. It is nice to have some replacements.

Works fine as well as any other. Just buy a quart of safe bacteriostatic fluid and use a drop or two from a tiny eyedropper with refills and then replace the wicks when they get all crusty with mineral build up. Note -these are only $8 at Target
