My wife started having some breathing issues as the season changed and we started using much more heat. I put one in the living room and one in the bedroom. The problems disappeared. The product is extremely quiet and very easy to load. The large tank capacity make refilling a once (at most) a day task.
Pros: Adjustable Settings, Easy To Use, Lightweight, Quiet
I use this humidifier to cut down on the dryness in my nasal passages and sinuses in the winter. THis is my first humidifier and I LOVE IT. It is easy to fill and manage from faucet to bedroom. The low setting is perfect for nighttime sleep and provides even a nice white noise effect which is soothing. I love the sound of the water being gently released into the unit bit by bit. I haven't formally cleaned it yet, but I anticipate no problem. It took me a long time to agree to purchase a humidifier. this name and model was suggested to me by a friend and it's one of the best suggestions anyone has ever made to me. Really a good buy!!!

Previous owned this product and was sorry to see it disappear from the catalog. Happy to have it back and purchased 2 both of which function very well.
This large room, 4 gallon capacity, humidifier doesn't leave any white dust on furniture like most sonic humidifiers. You will have the continued expense of replacing the "wicks" about every 6 weeks, but they are what filters out the minerals that leave behind the white dust. I wish this model had a thermostate and ran much quieter. If you turn the fan speed down to low it's whisper quiet. I would buy again.
This humidifier is quiet and reliable, easy to clean, and well built. I use it primarily at night, and the large capacity means that I don't have to fill it every night. Filling is very easy due to the well thought-out design. In the past I've had a variety of humidifiers--cool mist, warm mist, and evaporative--and this is the best. I bought this one because I have other Vornado products, a circulating fan and a heater, and have been impressed by the quality.
I had the previous model which finally gave up the ghost. This model designation seems to be just a change as the parts are interchangeable, so you need not throw out filters, water tanks, etc. if you have the older model. I wanted a unit that wasn't ultra-sonic and would provide humidification for several days without the need for a refill. The unit is quiet even at the highest fan speed. The humidistat is a bonus. I've had a number of Vornado products over the years and each has worked well out of the box and reliably over many years.
