This Crane EE-6902 ultrasonic humidifier adds moisture to rooms up to 500 sq. ft. to provide relief from cold and flu symptoms. The sensor-touch LCD makes it easy to select the output level you want, set the timer and choose from air ionizing functions.

This review is based on 2 humidifiers - the first one I received was defective (humidity indicator did not work).
- Warm mist feature - According to Crane, this is by design only 5-7 degrees warmer than the cool mist. I don't think mine hits 5 degrees. If this feature important to you, don't get this.
- Owner's manual - a joke. They did the absolute minimum needed to say they had a manual.
- Remote control - pointing directly towards the front, it works, but I still have to press buttons several time for the command to go into effect.
- Super quiet.
- Output - great.
- Removable tank - very easy to remove, fill, replace. The only way to tell how much water is left is to remove and hold up to the light.
- Ionizer - works great.
- Temperature indicator - seems to be accurate.
- Humidity indicator - problems here. For some reason, it never ever shows anything under 20%. I tried it in another room, which has more windows, less insulation. Same result. For a 500 sq foot room, it takes 7 hours for this to go from 20% to 45% (door is closed); I've never seen anything over 45%. So if you want something higher, beware.
- Auto turnoff when it reaches a certain humidity level - works, but you won't need it. It assumes the lowest level you want is 45% (goes up from there). But since it takes so long to get to that level, i never turn this feature on.
- Crane customer service - at first, received short emails that were not especially helpful. Once I kept pestering them they realized I was not going to give up and they became very helpful.
