Honeywell Steam Humidifier
Here is a product description: Best suited for rooms up to 1400 square feet in size, the humidifier's heater is crafted in stainless steel for quick heat production and trouble-free cleaning. The compact humidifier outputs 4 gallons of warm steam for each full tank of water. This humidifier offers users a timer function for running the unit for preset periods, ranging from an hour to the maximum 18-hour setting. Digital controls and the easy-to-read LCD screen enable users to alter or monitor current preference settings. A medicine cup allows users to run the humidifier as a vaporizer for stuffed noses, sore throats and other respiratory illnesses. An automatic shutdown feature reduces safety hazards. At Amazon.com you were able to find a very high 375 customer reviews for this model. More than half were five-star or four-star reviews. Certainly when you have so many reviews it is possible to gain a very clear perception of whether this particular unit is right for you. Here is part of a four-star review: Don't mean to be a humidifier geek but researched A LOT of them before settling on this one so maybe the reviewer before me should have given it another chance before returning it. At night if you set it to low there is no loud gurgling/boiling noise, and if you have the tank reasonably full there are never any distracting noises. Also wanted a "pure" clean mist, easy maintenance, and of course effectiveness. I liked the features, functionality, and design of this one over the others, so I paid a bit more and got it even though the size and all the features are gravy as far as I'm concerned. What sets this system apart from the others is the following: A large LCD display shows the current humidity level and there are three separate digital controls - output level, moisture, timer - each of which you can set exactly. What makes this efficient is you can DIGITALLY set the humidity to your EXACT preference - anywhere from 25 to 65. If you want it to shut off when you leave for work, set the timer - 1 to 18 hours. A four gallon output and 1400 square foot range makes it convenient. At the Slate website you can find a review of humidifiers, "Get Misty for Me." The reviewer described this Honeywell steam humidifier as follows: This model trounced the other warm-mist humidifier I tested. It's commendably quiet and compact, with the same smart vertical design that made the other Honeywell humidifier stand out. This humidifier comes equipped with "mineral absorption pads" that make a daily scouring unnecessary. Its digital operating screen offers plenty of choices: three moisture levels, an auto-regulating humidistat (beware the wildly inaccurate readings), and a refill/clean indicator. Unlike my experience with the other Honeywell, I've experienced zero leakage problems to date, and for extra credit, the water tank fit nicely in my kitchen sink. * Get the Latest Price on the Honeywell Steam Humidifier See also my report Buyers Guide to the Best Humidifiers.
