Vicks Steam Inhaler

Vapor Therapy for Healthful Living

Water is one nutrient that all forms of life must have to survive. All functions of your body require sufficient moisture to work properly. When your body does not have sufficient moisture, it functions poorly. Dry, arid climatic conditions can cause discomfort. Colds and flu can dehydrate the body and cause even more discomfort. The Vicks Steam Inhaler's soothing steam helps keep throat and nasal passages hydrated providing temporary relief from cough and congestion for better breathing and a more comfortable sleep.

  • Simple 5-15 minute treatment
  • Variable steam control
  • Compact and lightweight

Product Highlights

How it Works

1. The self regulating heater gently boils the water. Caution: Use with water only.

2. The patented adjustable steam control allows cool air to mix with the steam for maximum effectiveness.

3. Soothing steam helps relieve coughs, parched throats, nasal, sinus, and chest congestion.

Comfortflex Hood

The comfortable, soft flexible hood allows the soothing steam to target the nose, mouth, and throat to naturally and effectively help alleviate sinus congestion, dryness, and irritation.

Simple to Use

The Personal Steam Inhaler has an adjustable control that regulates the flow of steam as well as an on/off indicator light.

Optional Scent Pads

I love it!
The first one I bought was crap. It didn't plug in it didn't create steam it didn't take hot boiling water it was pretty much false advertising when it showed a photo of steam coming out of the topper when clearly it was quite inefficient. Amazon did the right thing they refunded me and then I bought this one and it's everything I thought it should be. I did see a comment from a another buyer stating the plastic topper was quite flimsy and cracked. Perhaps the other buyer applied pressure to the topper. It clearly states not to rest your chin or your face on the topper. You should hover over the topper and take in the steam. So far I'm 100% satisfied
