Excellent spacesaving design
While I have been using this humidifier for only about a week, it's lived up to its expectations so far. Other humidifiers from various brands get rave and not so rave reviews, and this one had none. That was probably a good sign... It is relatively small (the only reason I give it four stars is because it goes rather quickly through its water supply) which could be good...

Aromatherapy? What?
The aromatherapy part of this thing sucks. It barely puts out any scent at all. Other than that, it's a straightforward humidifier. Whoever designed the way you put in the water/ the square look of this thing is a moron. For one thing, it's so large that you can only fill it in your kitchen sink or tub. Also, holding down that piece so that water will go in gets TEDIOUS...

Excellent spacesaving design, December 19, 2009
This review is from: Westinghouse WDD200 Humidifier with Aromatherapy, 1.2-Gallon Tank (Kitchen)
While I have been using this humidifier for only about a week, it's lived up to its expectations so far. Other humidifiers from various brands get rave and not so rave reviews, and this one had none. That was probably a good sign... It is relatively small (the only reason I give it four stars is because it goes rather quickly through its water supply) which could be good if your room is not as dry as mine and you just needed it for some extra humidity. It is also very quiet, I only hear it at the highest setting and even then it is only a pleasant white noise together with some bubbling action from the tank (which is noticeable once in a while on any setting).
The fine cool mist that it produces is visible even at the lowest setting (however faint), and it never settles on the ground. In fact, the area around the unit stays completely dry, a good build. The unit is all plastic but of a very good quality for the price. Simple, straightforward construction, water tank manageable and not too heavy even when full and easily filled by turning it upside down and unscrewing the fill cap. It is rated for a 600sq foot room but due to its small size, if that room is already very dry (like in a desert climate), you would probably be doing a lot of refilling. I use distilled water, by the way, to keep the weekly cleaning to a minimum.
Haven't used the aromatherapy applicator yet but it looks really easy to use. The buttons do make a light beeping sound when pressed but it is a friendly beep. All buttons are clearly marked on the front and easily accessible. I followed the instructions by keeping it out of the box for 30 minutes at room temperature before starting to use it. By default, when you turn it on, it starts at the highest setting at 30% humidity, contrary to what the manual says (65%). Not sure yet how to change that because it works fine for me.
If Westinghouse is reading this, please note that the user of your product is, more likely than not , not an engineer and is also not likely to want to have to resort to magnifying glasses. Please print the manual in a larger typeface and make it userfriendly!

Aromatherapy? What?, February 22, 2010
This review is from: Westinghouse WDD200 Humidifier with Aromatherapy, 1.2-Gallon Tank (Kitchen)
The aromatherapy part of this thing sucks. It barely puts out any scent at all. Other than that, it's a straightforward humidifier. Whoever designed the way you put in the water/ the square look of this thing is a moron. For one thing, it's so large that you can only fill it in your kitchen sink or tub. Also, holding down that piece so that water will go in gets TEDIOUS considering how small the hole is and how large the container is. You find yourself sitting there for, like, 5 whole minutes just trying to fill this thing. And since you're only supposed to put cold water into it, your hands end up getting frosty.
I DO, however, like that it tells you the room humidity. That comes in handy for me. You can also adjust the output.
Aromatherapy and design fail.
