Haier 30-Pint Mechanical Dehumidifier - HD306 Review

Haier 30-Pint Mechanical Dehumidifier - HD306
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this de-humidifier a month ago, and so far it works well. The price is fair, but be aware that this product I would consider to be for a 'medium' space. It is very important when buying a de-humidifier to get the right capacity unit.-------In other words, this one is perfect for an average size bedroom or smallish living room-----too big however for a bathroom, but too small for a large basement. The white colored design is attractive, and it is simple to use. T Though I have had it only a month, so far it is a good buy and I would recommend it. ( also, it is easy to empty and easy to move ). Great for an average basement studio apartment as well.

Venta Water treatment Additive 6001305 Review

Venta Water treatment Additive 6001305
Average Reviews:

This additive is an absolute necessity when operating the Venta Airwashwer. Whenever you replace the water of the Airwasher completely (every 10-14 days according to the manual) and rinse it out, you will need to add a portion of this additive. The bottle lasts for about 12 such cycles.
I have actually found that I need to replace the water every 10 days to avoid the buildup of "gunk" in the water. I have lived in an area where the water had a much higher mineral content compared to where I live now and found myself doing a complete rinse-out of the Airwasher and replacement of the water and the treastment additive every week, just because the build-up of mineral deposits was so high.

I bought this product for my infant's bedroom. I completed a ton of research looking for something safe, effective, easy to fill, quiet, and leak-proof. I can not say enough about this product. My husband and I love it, and our baby's room is wonderful to be in because of it. I researched many other products, and the chief complaints were the difficulty to fill and leaking.... however this humidifer had the best reviews and I can see why....I love it. I wish they made on just like it, and as effective, for adult rooms... :) This is a worry free product, a great buy, worth the money and I am so glad we purchased it. I recommend it to all parents and cant tell you how much I think of this product.

Evaporative Humidifier Stainless Steel 15 Gallon Review

Evaporative Humidifier Stainless Steel 15 Gallon
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In my quest to replace the fake woodgrain 1970s-vintage Sears whole house humidifier that we've used for years, I first purchased an EssickAir (Bemis) TD6-710. The unit had all the looks, size, and features we wanted - a really slick machine. The only problem was that it was severely design-flawed.
[...]
There is nothing on the market as sleek-looking as that unit. It's sad that it is so flawed. The hardware store was gracious to take it back used and unboxed, and they decided to return all 3 units they still had back to the manufacturer.
Wal-Mart had the Boston Innovative Products EH-01-342 for $109, so we picked one up. This unit doesn't have the electronic humidity meters, out-of-water indicator, or super-easy refill of the EssickAir, but it is solidly built and so far does not overflow the water basin like the EssickAir. There are 2 two-gallon containers in it for water. Each has a handle for ease of carrying. Getting them out involves removal of a pop-out screen in the back of the unit, so you don't have the convenience of frontfill. The 3-speed evaporator fan in typically noisy, even on the lowest setting. Cold air blows out the front of the unit, making placement of it in the room a concern of comfort. The unit is taller but narrower that those boxy larger units, making it a little less invasive. Time will tell how it fits into our home. I may update this in a few weeks with further experience.
2-1-07 Update
After using this machine for a little while, one thing I cannot understand. Why doesn't it have an out-of-water indicator? It seems crazy that you have to attune your ear to the mild grating noise that indicates a water refill is necessary. Why put the water pump through all that excessive wear? Another thing that can be annoying is the short cycle time. I don't know how the humidity sensor is set up, but the unit turns on for a few minutes, turns off for a few minutes, turns on for a few minutes... why not design a delay in the timing so that it wouldn't be so jarring with all this cycling? I'm thinking now that a 3-star rating is more appropriate, although it still beats most of the competition that I have tried.

When you think of dryness, do you picture the arid, wind-whipped sands of the Sahara? Or the cracked, sun-baked earth of Death Valley? it might surprise you to know that there are places in this world that are twice as dry as those. One of the driest places on earth could be your home.The relative humidity of the Sahara Desert is 25%; Death Valley is 23%. In the winter months, the average heated home can have a relative humidity as low as 13% to 16%.This Boston Innovative Stainless Steel 15 Gallon Evaporative Humidifier generates moisture for added comfort, better health, preservation of home & home furnishings, and savings on your monthly energy bills. This unit features a highly efficient electrical rating of 0.48A, and runs on normal 120V, 60Hz AC (household current).

Vista FSCA6 Humidifier Fragrance Review

Vista FSCA6 Humidifier Fragrance
Average Reviews:

I like to use this type of product to add a pleasant scent in our home and yes, it does work. Different scents are available in this brand and I like the apple cinnamon aroma best. It seems to be the most robust scent additive out of the others available. It is simple to use but is best to add the liquid to the humidifiers water after filling the container otherwise foam is created taking up water space.
I only use this product on occasion because if you think about it, it is not a cheap way to fill your home/room with a pleasing smell. The concept is great but not affordable for me with constant use. You can add more liquid per gallon of water to increase the strength of aroma which is what I need to do for my satisfaction. For this reason, cost per gallon of water, I am rating this product with 4 stars ****.
Other similar products are available such as a tablet-type scent. Just drop the tablet(s) in the water according to the intensity of aroma you enjoy. However, this form of additive is not an economical option either. I have only found this type in a local store so far.
If you're like me wanting value for the money, it is not the most cost effective way to do so. But on occasion, I do find it worth the price.

Honeywell HWM-500 UV Warm Moisture Humidifier Review

Honeywell HWM-500 UV Warm Moisture Humidifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
***Approximate measurement***
Entire unit: 14x11x7 (inches)
Tank:14x7x7 (inches)***10/31/2007***
This is my first humidifier, but I am extremely satisfied with it.
The instruction is very clear and easy to follow.
It is easy to put together, simply attach the tank to the bottom.
All suggest to me that this is a very efficient machine for a warm mist humidifier(well, at least to me):
1. Within 30 minutes of use, it works and I can feel the difference.
2. No leaking.
3. No noise (slight bubbling sound is actually soothing to me, not noisy.)
4. Sturdy construction.
5. Humidity adjustable (many options, not just 2).
6. Large tank and easy to refill.
7. Low maintenance. (No filter required if you have regular tap/city water.)
8. Easy to clean. (With ultraviolet lights, cleaning isn't required on a weekly basis.)
9. For cats owners: My cats don't get scared of or hurt by it.
I don't think I could ask for more.
***Well...11/5/2007***
It's still great, although I did notice some issues:
1. A bit too much work and too heavy when refill:
For men, this might NOT be an issue, but for women like me, it might be.
To refill, the tank needs to be turned upside down because the tank cap is at the bottom of it. When I am to flip a full tank of water over and put it back onto the base, I do worry. It's quite heavy, and it gets a bit tiring since I do need to refill it every day. There is no easy access!
2. Frequency of refill:
Quote: "It requires no messy filters to replace and runs up to 24 hours each filling." I do need to refill it every 12 hours every day when I:
(1) have it on the highest humidity level
(2) have it on most of the time (12 hours)
So I do refill it every day I get up and every night before I go to bed. I assume it would last up to 24 hours like it says only if the humidity level is set at the lowest, which probably wouldn't cause an obvious difference to the room's humidity.
In all, it's still a good buy. It does help! I notice that I don't wake up with the driest skin in the morning anymore.
**A little tip**
A teaspoon of salt helps it evaporate more moisture, although it makes the water run out faster.
**I attached a picture of mine with my Treo next to it. The ratio should give a brief idea of how big the machine is.

Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier Review

Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this humidifier 2 weeks ago after searching for a decent humidifier to replace the one i owned that was famous for robbing me in replacements filter, etc. fees. This thing fits the bill. The design is great, it's super quiet, and gets the job done. In choosing this product i read all the reviews. The reviews that made me hesitant to purchase this were the complaints that said: a)that the furniture on and around the humidifier got wet all the time, b)that the machine did not cut off if empty, as advertised, c)that the machine is hard to clean, and d) that it makes a lot of noise.
With hesitation, I purchased the product in good faith.
I was immediately pleased by the design. I read the owner's manual even though i thought it all was a "no brainer". The manual actually explained a)how to adjust the mist as to not wet the furniture around it, and b)that the machine will turn off when empty, but the light on the device will remain lite...obviously the part those that said the machine did not turn off failed to read, and c)how the machine is easy to clean with a vinegar or chlorine solution.
Cleaning is easy. I recommend using the bleach solution as bleach will kill anything..not to mention it also gets rid of the discoloration.
Lastly, the sound the comes from the machine is very subtle, but when u hear it, it is exactly like the soothing sounds of a filter running on a fish tank. It actually helped me sleep... having this white, very subtle noise.
I like this thing. My skin and nose are happy.
I hope this clarifies some of the ambiguity i found in the other reviews....
