The buttons didn’t work. Once I plugged it in and turned it on, I couldn’t adjust the humidity because the buttons didn’t do anything. The power button didn’t turn it off. I had to unplug it to turn it off. I was able to return it easily and get a refund, so I was happy with that. Just wish the product had worked.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear about the issue with your humidifier! It seems the problem was related to the low water indicator, which can stay on if the unit is filled without turning it off. Powering the humidifier off and then back on resets the pump and allows it to detect the newly added water. While we are glad to hear that your return experience was seamless, we apologize for not resolving this issue before you returned the device. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us directly, and we would be happy to help!
This thing is really UGLY and very bulky. It humidifies... just OK, not great.
But at least it's reliable, and all the advertised functions work, unlike some other brands.
Even the medium size one is bulky, clunky, and has nothing to recommend its appearance. It is in my opinion truly hideous, and an eyesore where ever you put it. It looks like a cheap drugstore bargain unit - NO style at all.
Humidification - it sort of works, but it takes really long to get the humidity up, and never quite gets it up to where I want it to be.
It definitely does NOT humidify rooms of the size it claims, not by a long shot.
It is quiet, I will grant it that.
I don't really like t, but I will continue to use it until something better, and better looking, comes along.
I am disappointed that this is one of the only choices on the market for an evaporative humidifier, and glad that I got it with promos and on sale

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We apologize for any disappointment you've experienced with the design and performance of your humidifier. We understand that aesthetics and functionality are important, and we're sorry to hear that the unit did not meet your expectations in these areas. For the best performance, we recommend placing the Humidifier in a room up to 500 sq. ft, adjusting your preferred target humidity level and setting the humidifier to Auto mode. This allows the device to react to the changing humidity in your room and adjust to meet your target humidity. We appreciate your acknowledgment of its reliability and quiet operation. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will use it to improve our products. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help!
Bought this less than a month ago and already has stopped working. Will not pump any water. It runs but the water stays at the same level. Complete waste of money. Also the filter already says 70% used in 3 weeks... Supposed to last a month!

Well this thing wouldn’t work out of the box. Filled it and wouldn’t recognize the water present. I started the pump as specified in the manual and it didn’t work to prime the pump, for over an hour, and many many tries. I emptied it, filed it, took the pump out and shook it. I finally slammed my fist into the touch screen multiple times, I didn’t care if it broke since I was getting so mad at yet another cheap appliance. Was about to return it. Then all of a sudden it started working lol. And it’s been fine ever since. Weird.

Temperature & humidity sensor not working. It does not provide the correct temperature and humidity level. Using this for a babies room and it says it’s 51* in our house which it is not. And says it’s more humid than it really is so the auto option won’t work
