I bought this after our old school Vicks humidifer started spurting out water instead of steam. I really didn't want to spend this much money on a humidifier, but I didn't want to keep replacing them either.
I did a fair amount of research on this one and I received it last week. So far, it's much easier to fill than the Vicks. I can put it in the tub and it's full in no time. I love the carrying handle too! It is fairly quiet, as compared to the old Vicks humidifier and on the low setting you can barely hear it. However, there is a loud glug glug glug as the water enters the steam chamber. My son hasn't been woken by it so I guess it's not that big of an issue. The output is good, and so far, I've been able to run this nightly on Low, 70% for three to four nights without a refill.
After a full week of nightly use, the heating element was 2/3 covered with scale, even with using the mineral absorbtion pads. The pad wasn't hard and inflexible so I can continue to use it. But I decided to clean it anyway. Filling it with vinegar and using an old toothbrush cleaned the scale off within a few minutes. I guess we have fairly hard water here in Georgia.
I'm not entirely sure what the hygrometer on the display is for, and it doesn't seem entirely accurate to me. The display is also very hard to read at night. You almost have to be right on top of it to read the numbers. The display backlight is light blue and the numbers display in a darker blue. So if you are not viewing it up close at the right angle, the entire readout disappears. That is the only real design flaw of this humidifier.
