I have two of these and a Pure Guardian H3200WCA. I like the Levoit much better because the water tank is very stable when filling it where the Pure Guardian must be balanced as the filling port is on the opposite side of the curved tank. I had to roll a towel up from two edges to form a trough to hold the tank steady. The Levoit has a flat top and bottom. You turn it over and remove the lid, pour in the water and put the lid back in. The only drawback is the Levoit has blue lights that cannot be shut off, which makes it harder to sleep if this is used in a bedroom. A final comment the Levoit has yet to grow the red bacteria found in my area where the Pure Guardian seems to be a breeding ground for it. The bacteria is harmless but does require cleaning to avoid a slime build up.
Over the two weeks we have had this unit the aromamizer fan became noisy and when I tried to disable it I found that Levoit does not build their products to be repaired. Three of the screws were conventional Phillips the third, buried deep in a hole, proved to be an number 15 Torx. Now the only sound is from the hum of the power supply and it was muffled by stuffing 1 1/2 cotton balls into the aromamizer port.
I am a strong supporter of requiring products to be built to be serviceable by the owner. As an IEEE Fellow and amateur machinist I feel it wrong to make me spend $200 to fix something I could fix is 15 minutes. Boo! Levoit. But it is a good humidifier:-)
Six month update: We bought a second one to keep up with the cold, dry winter. It is easy to fill, which is good given the number of gallons we run through it a day. Both units have a strong tendency to race the fan motor just after filling the reservoir and make a lot of noise. A few whacks to the side solves the problem. If the unit had a filling port on top it would be easier to fill and the fan probably would not get into the race condition.
Update: The solution to the race condition is to unplug the unit when filling it. Do not use the on/off key because the unit runs until the water inside the unit is exhausted. If unplugged the water level remains and when restarted - no race noise! It also helps to add water to the base before putting the tank on.
Update: The original units are getting too noisy, but because they are so easy to use and effective be have bought two new ones that appear to be slightly different. No motor racing noise yet but a high pitched hum has forced us to move them to more remote locations in the house, where they work fine and keep the house at 40% humidity.
Update: Had trouble with one of the valves in the tank. Called Levoit and a new cap with valve was sent promptly. No hassle at all.
Update #2: They have been in continuous operation for about 8 months, putting about 4 gallons of water into the air every day. No problems, but we did notice that initially there was red growth growing on the bottom side of the tank and the top of the base unit. We rinsed the surfaces with near-boiling water and after three rinses a week apart, the problem was gone. Still have to clean it periodically though. The red stuff is probably a bacteria, Serratia marcescens, which likes moist environments. It can cause infections, so keep it under control if you get it. We're still loving the units we got in 2018 and finding the tanks from the 2017 units useful as we keep them filled and swap the tanks, then refill at our convenience. Levoit should consider selling spare tanks.

The iPhone of Humidifiers
This thing is so blinged out with features, it even comes with its own remote.....something my husband scoffed at as completely unnecessary (more on that later).Aside from smooth good looks, because, hey, who hasn't said at least once "All I want is a really good looking humidifier in my life," this thing really suits its purpose and humidifies my daughter's 146 square foot room with ease.I bought this for the fall and winter season to use in my daughter's room due to asthma and respiratory issues she seems susceptible to this time of year. We'd already burned out two Vick's brand humidifiers, and so I decided to splurge a bit and give this one a spin, hoping for more options and durability.Here's what I really like:-Hot or cold mist options-Compartment for essential oils or in our case, the placebo effect of Vick's VapoRub being diffused through the room-100% super quiet-Generous size - I only use distilled water in the machine (we have really hard water where I live), and although I refill the tank every four or five days after running all night, I expected it to be less efficient with water based on size-Humidifies the room like a champ - on some mornings, it's done such a job, that my daughter's comforter feels a bit damp - I obviously found out the hard way you can adjust the % of humidity settings...-Adjustable light - for smaller kids, I noticed that leaving the soft blue light on the humidifier acts as a night light, but it can also be turned off if you prefer a darkened room-Remote control- so I don't use the remote, but this would have been amazing to have when my kids were infants so I could simply press a button without having to enter their room, trip over stuff (cats, my feet, rocking chair, etc) waking them up, and dealing with the misery of trying to get two infants back to sleep again. I like the remote just for the idea of what it could have been in my life ("sigh").What I don't love as much:-The price ($94.00 for a humidifier seems almost as ridiculous as me spending that amount on it)-Too many features. All of the bells and whistles, timed settings, auto delays, etc, etc, etc are lost on me. I just need it to humidify the room so my kid stops coughing.For those serious about their humidity, this thing is worth considering. Five stars, but for the price.
