Love This Humidifier

I had a humidifier that didn’t work and replaced it with this one. I love that the water lasts longer than a day and keeps my bedroom comfortably humidified when on. The 2 water containers are easy to fill up and the unit is easy to assemble and disassemble.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wonderful Purchase

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!!!
Pros: Adjustable Settings, Easy To Use, Lightweight, Quiet

Not as it should be
on December 21, 2017
Posted by: AB
from NY
Having owned the predecessor to this unit for over 10 years with no problems in it's functioning, I am very disappointed in this newer version. the 1st one I bought didn't have a working humidistat so was given another unit under the warranty. Tje 2nd unit is basically the same - humidistat worked twice in a few weeks. Mostly I have to work it manually which is difficult, can't be done when sleeping. So either the room is too dry or too wet. What a big disappointment in what used to be such a wonderful product.
Pros: Durable, See through water tanks, Stable Base
Cons: 2nd unit that humidistat doesn't function naking
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Quiet, reliable, well built

Verified Purchase:No
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 would recommend this to a friend!

Gulp Gulp

I replaced my ultrasonic humidifier with this one. The ultrasonics require constant cleaning of hard water deposits and everything around them gets covered in a white dust. not sure what that's all about. I've been using the evap40 vortex for several weeks and I'm very happy with it. It holds a ton of water and all the hard water deposits are centralized in the 2 filters. The filters can be cleaned in a vinegar water soak, just don't wring them out or they'll tear up. It runs very quiet in the bedroom with the only objectionable sound is the gulping noise when water leaves the tanks to fill the bottom of the unit, hence my 4 star rating instead of 5.

Somewhat disappointed
on February 15, 2019
Posted by: Piano
from New York City
It is advertised that it will humidify a large area. It barely does that. I purchased it mainly to provide humidity for my piano and I need to run it at high in order for it to reach 40%. It does not shut off when it is empty which is a minus. Having wheels on the base would make it easier to move.
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Stable Base
Cons: Lacks Power
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Replacement filters not available.

from Boulder, Colorado
My Evap 40 Vortex Humidifer seems to run fine & adds humidity to my rooms. BUT I can't find where or how to buy the replacement filters. Very annoying. I'm not interested in sharing my email address with your company to send me advertisements. But I don't know how else to order this filter. I purchased this machine at a local retail store.
Pros: Adjustable Settings
Cons: Can't Purchase Filters, Hard To Clean
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If you are looking locally, check with Bed, Bath and Beyond store and Ace Hardware stores for the replacement filter wicks. All Vornado Evaporative Humidifiers use the same filter wicks so if they are Vornado, they are the correct ones.
You can order them directly from us at http://www.vornado.com/accessories/Universal-Humidifier-Wick-2-pack or by calling 1-+800-234-0604.
