Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hunter 33257 Carefree Humidifier Plus with Permawick (Kitchen)
We bought this Hunter 34357 and had it for a month. Note: Amazon's return policy is incredible. So, read my review with the qualifier that you should probably try it yourself.

Out of the box: All the parts and components arrived intact, and everything worked.

Setup: Easy to set up, instructions were clear, up and running within about 15 mins.

Operation: This humidifer runs using a fan to disperse the moist air. We had this unit in our livingroom, which is about 25' x 15'. From a humidifier standpoint, it covered this room well. However, it couldn't cover an adjoining office or guest bedroom effectively, even though it was rated for 1600 square feet. I would give it an effective coverage of maybe 1/2 that. In addition, the unit fan was noisy. When I say noisy, I mean louder than the microwave in the kitchen. I mean so loud that we had to turn up the TV. In my opinion, too loud.

We returned it and bought an Air-O-Swiss ultrasonic. (Actually, two of them.) We've been happier with those.

I rated this a 3 because of the noise. Based on noise, it's a 2, based on humification capability, I'd give it a 4. 3 seemed appropriate.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, December 20, 2005
This review is from: Hunter 33257 Carefree Humidifier Plus with Permawick (Kitchen)
Ours ran for less than a month.The company says it will replace but we have been through this before with another Hunter humidifier.They replaced it and then that one died quickly.
Thinking it was a fluke we tried again with this one, and here we go again! Not only do we have to wait for the replacement to come but we have no confidence that it will last either. I'd rather have my money back.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does the job, April 10, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Hunter 33257 Carefree Humidifier Plus with Permawick (Kitchen)
I've had mine for 3 months. Works fine and does a good job. On low speed it's quiet enough, although I have it in the hallway to humidify a 3 bedroom area. Love the fact that I don't have to replace the wicks ($$$ saver). That's what made me buy this in spite of the other noise complaints I'd seen.

Very easy to fill the tank and the tank is sturdy and easy to carry. No problems with water leakage. Sometimes the gurgling sound as water is being drained is a little annoying, but not overly so.

Overall, I'm satisfied.


Update (1/12/05) Cleaned it last spring easily with vinegar/water as instructed in the manual and packed it away. Got it back out and started using it in December (12/04). Once in awhile it vibrates a little more than I recall last season, but it's still bearable. It's a bummer others have reported problems with this model. I'm satisfied.
