quiet and effective

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] it's been a game-changer, especially during these dry Illinois months. Setting it up was a breeze. literally just filling the tank and plugging it in. I appreciate the cool mist; it's so much better than the hot, stuffy air from some other humidifiers I've used. One of the best things about it is how quiet it is. I can run it all night in my bedroom, and it doesn’t disturb my sleep at all. Plus, the design is pretty sleek and doesn't look out of place. The only minor downside is refilling the tank, which can be a bit awkward, but overall, the benefits far outweigh this small inconvenience. Since using the Crane humidifier, I've noticed a significant improvement in my skin's moisture levels, and my sinuses aren't as dry and irritated. It's definitely made my living space more comfortable, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking to combat dry air, especially in a place like illinois where the winters can be brutal.

Clean and cool, easy breezy
on November 21, 2025
Posted by: koreverse_7513
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup is easy, pour water in, plug into power source, push button and go. 0.5 gallon is fairly generous for a humidifier. The size of the device can fit on most nightstands or fire place mantle, which coming up on winter weather will be useful considering the heat that would be put out drying the air.
The cooling evaporative mist is similar to a swamp cooler where moisture is circulated with moving air. Where this device takes it up a few notches is the germicidal uv light and physical filter that insures cleaner water particles are circulated into the air. What's even more impressive, besides shipping with an actual power adapter for the USB-C power cord, is that the energy draw is so low that the device can actually run on most portable power banks as demonstrated in the video, making this device truly portable and usable in almost any location.
My only one downside is the replacement of the physical filter since it will need to replaced after a few months of use so that would be a periodic maintenance fee, but at least unlike most humidifiers and essential oil dispensers, this humidifier doesn't need to run on distilled water to stay as clean. Plus the bottom housing that would need to be cleaned is dishwasher safe so that's always a plus.
The noise isn't particularly loud even on the highest setting and could easily pass for white noise. It's basically a USB powered PC fan.

The perfect lightweight humidifier for allergies o
on November 23, 2025
Posted by: yazziey_9237
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The setup was easy to do and it was easy to use. The wick filter came in the box and was easy to install into the tank. The power cord was long enough to reach from our bedside table to the floor outlet. I love how it has different speeds to use and they work well. It's lightweight and easy to move around. I love how it's dishwasher safe to clean extra well but also easy to clean with water and vinegar mixture.

Works great, easy to use, soooo super quiet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Crane cool mist evaporative humidifier works great, easy assembly and use, super quiet!
Measures: 7 ¾” x 7 ¾” x 7 ¾” (adorable cube size!)
Color: top is bright white, base is a soft translucent blue
Cord length is 47” long. Comes with a 1 ¾” long rectangle shape, white, wall adapter. The plug is a Type A two parallel pins plug – the kind used in the US that operates on a 120V supply voltage. This is not a plug that can be used in Europe without an adapter.
Sound: Super quiet! This humidifier creates a perfectly calming background noise and is quieter than my 5 ½” personal fan that I use for white noise when sleeping.
Materials included: easy to wash clean filter and power cord with plug.
Where to use: Instructions say to place on a solid, waterproof, elevated surface. Why? To keep humidity away from the wall and wooden furniture as a way to protect the areas from getting damaged. I put a 12” x 16” tray under the humidifier which works well to protect the area.
Liquid Amount Held: The instructions say the container holds 2.5 liters. 2.5 liters equals 10.4 cups. I put 10 cups in the tank and took a picture. Then I added one more cup and the water line is just below the tank’s venting holes. So, in my experience, the container can hold up to 11 cups of water.
This humidifier is very simple to use! There are three levels of output speed / fan sound. On the top of the fan there is a green dot light to indicate level 1 (slow) level 2 (medium) and level 3 (high). The light and power switch are the only functions on the top.
I have used daily for a week. Water lasts for an impressive 15 hours. Consistent humidity output, noise level does not change, and the walls / area are not dripping. I have kept it in a 12’ x 16’ room with the door open.
This humidifier does not have: a temperature read-out panel, any LED display panel, a nightlight, nor an aroma diffuser.
This humidifier: is definitely a cool mist, doesn’t get hot after hours of use, is dishwasher safe (tank only), has a germicidal UV light on the top that is barely noticeable, can run on a full tank for about 15 hours. Uses about 3/4 cup of water per hour while running on high speed.

Good little humidifier
on November 26, 2025
Posted by: billiejok1_8513
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this humidifier a few weeks ago and came at the right time as we were sliding into cold weather. My son gets a lot of nosebleeds in the winter time and running a humidifier is crucial. This machine has a small footprint but was easy to set up. Doesn’t appear to have a lot of maintenance associated with it . Just make sure to empty it in the morning and clean the filter once a week. The machine is on the smaller side and holds a smaller amount of water than I would have liked.
The machine seems durable but it is very light weight and I feel it could be knocked over easily, so keep that in mind when placing it in your room.
The machine is not the quietest and does provide white noise sounds.
If I run this on low, I can get 6+ hours of run time before the water is gone. It will run for up to 90 minutes empty and then shut itself off, which is a safety feature I like.

It dies the job!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The humidifier is basic but does what it is made to do. It's a bit flimsy and auquard to move around when it is full. I've now tested it for a few weeks and feel that it does the job well. It is easy to clean and maintain since there are only a few parts. It's quite very easy to assemble.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the convenience of this humidifier. The filter is easy to wash as well as the machine itself. It has 3 settings for output and is low noise level. I haven't had a ny issues with it and it works well. I have it in our living room and it is inconspicuous. Glad I got this complimentary to try!
