Works great

Our machine has worked excellent from day one. The filter gets rinsed out occasionally to keep the steam output high. I am wondering if reviewers below are not cleaning the device of using pure water as asked for. My only complaint is in the bottom section where there is a black screen that has a white coloered deposit on it. I am wondering if parts are available
I bought this beautiful, fancy and expensive humidifier and it started leaking out of the bottom shortly thereafter. It ruined a wooden nightstand.
To run it, I keep it in a deep 8cup cookie sheet and siphon off the water. This actually does keep it working until the humidity at the base of the unit triggers a shut off as it will register 90% humidity in the room which is of course not true. it's just registering this as the thing is leaking out of the bottom and triggering the sensor to read incorrectly. Another makeshift solution for this was to run a fan directly pointed at the unit. Again not what I was expecting when I bought this very expensive humidifier I can't recommend this
This is my third of this model (HU5120) & I have really liked them obviously. But this last one I was disapointed that the heating element doesn't work, it only puts out a cold mist... which I paid more to have the warm & cold option. I would appreciate if Rowenta could replace it with warm mist that works but I didn't want to bother with promoting the return, etc myself since I still need it for this really dry, winter mountain air. On second thought maybe I will contact them...
The humidifier works great! The digital display is most helpful in monitoring the temperature and humidity, it corresponds exactly with my room hygrometer. I am very pleased with my purchase.
Bought in Dec of 2016 and is now leaking in April 2017. I have read others having problems with leaking from the bottom. Rowenta states it's under warranty and I'm sending it in for repair. Worked great all winter and it's the first winter in a long time with no nose bleeds. Just really disappointed it failed so quickly.
I put this on when going to bed and it really gives me relaxation and a great night's sleep. I can breathe when I get up and it works wonders for my sinus issues. It also looks great: most humidifiers just look cheap.
