Trion 356686-001 Atomizer Humidifier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is merely a drugstore style spinning disk humidifier made of metal instead of plastic with a toilet bowl style water filling valve. Loud as hell and back, randomly, due to lack of precision roundness of the very fast (vs. the drugstore version) plastic disk. It's a molded piece that likely is being de-molded too fast so it warps a bit. WRRRZZzzzzzzzzzzZZZaaaahhhhhhHHHHAHHHAZZSZARrrahhhh.... The vibration isolation sucks. It's little rubber grommets that huge metal studs (threaded rods) jut through, topped off by brass nuts. That metal connection links the top plate that holds the motor to the sound board that is the metal bucket. So I removed the brass nuts and the rubber grommets were set free to stop filling my apartment with ugly noise. Now it's white noise. Calm noise. It does NOT put out enough water vapor to do more than a couple of small rooms. Oh, yeah, better than nothing, much better, but not enough to raise my 1200 sq. ft. NYC apartment from 28% humidity much above 35%. But that's enough to help with dry skin and any coughs that linger after I inhale crap all day during my work in an art and design studio. It's a good product. The top has a wire that sort of prevents it from laying flat on the bucket, so I glued it down, but that prevents you from taking it apart to clean the rotor. Doesn't really matter. The float inside that controls the water level in the bucket can be bent by hand to allow a bit more water in so it's deep water the rotor tip is dipping into instead of shallow water which makes it's own type of very odd noise. Stuff of nightmares, that. After all these years, this little trooper is making me feel like it's spring already. The wall humidity control is top notch and uses some sort of wrapped around plastic film to measure humidity. There's enough mechanical "click" to actually measure the current humidity by cranking the knob left and right. The unit puts out vapor instead of actual gas, so hard water issues are mostly solved by the mineral solids being ejected into the air, but unlike sonic humidifiers, it does not put out a fine white dust of hard water evaporate.
