2.0 out of 5 stars Don't Let the Capacity and Features Tempt you., January 13, 2009

By	Desmond Lee "nhwormburner" (nh,usa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this product from Babies RUS on promotion with a 20% discount and gift cards. However, to date, I've spent the purchase price on this unit on filters (albeit cheaper at amazon with amex wishlist discount).

PROS:
This unit is quiet (on quietmist setting), does humidify a large space, and has a convenient humidity setting/readout, not to mention a large 4gallon tank. So yes, it does its job as it's supposed to.

CONS:
and this is a big CON job. Have you ever wondered why this 4-gallon humidifier is ~$70 when 1-2 gallon quiet mist tanks are going for around the same price? THIS IS WHY: The filters cost about $10 and you'll know it's time to change it when you smell a dead rat every two weeks - you can't cop out and pretend it's not there b/c whatever that filter does soaking in water, it really puts out some foul smell when it's "time to change". Say you'll need a humidifier to operate for 4 months in the winter (most likely way longer), that's 8 x $10 = $80 just to keep this thing going. Moreover, if you read the description of this item, it recommends you clean it EVERY DAY - sorry dudes, I've got a job, wife and kids, i don't need to add a humidifier to the family feeding and cleaning schedule.

I've "downgraded" to a 1-gallon humidifier that lasts the night in a 400sq foot room - that's ALL you need people. Forget the 4-gallon filter-guzzler.

1.0 out of 5 stars extremely annoying and poor durability, February 11, 2008

By	Sara (New York City) - See all my reviews

Piece of trash! If you're reading reviews written just after someone bought this thing, ignore them. Sure it's all fine and dandy in the beginning...I have used this humidifier for 2 seasons (total of about 7 months, and have had to replace the cap and gasket 3 times. The new cap they just sent me STILL LEAKS all over the floor, rendering the entire thing useless. I give up! And on top of that, when it DID work, I had to replace the filter every 10 days or so (not every 3 months as they advertise). My friend down the street with the same humidifier has the same problem. After a week or so, it starts turning brown and smelly. And this is despite cleaning the tank and tray nearly every time, and turning the filter each time as recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars not worth the money, March 29, 2008

By	Frogfromnyc (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews

Let me start off by saying that I never write reviews but I felt the need to share my opinion about this product. I researched a lot of humidifiers before purchasing this one, because it sounded perfect for my son's room. Yes, it worked great for maybe 2 weeks but then I had to replace the filter which is supposed to last 3 months! I had the replacement filter for 1 week and I just threw it in the trash because it smelled like something died in the bedroom. I don't know if it is the New York City water or the poor quality of the filter but for every day use it is just not cutting it. Needless to say my husband is on his way to a store to buy something else!
