There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I’ve not had any problems with the reservoirs switching over automatically when one runs dry. Works every time. I have it sitting fairly level but in no way perfectly level as some reviewers say is necessary.
I love the large water supply. About 1.25 gallons in each reservoir for a total of a little over 2.5 gallons. I use a gallon plastic picture to fill from the top.
There’s no humidity meter. I thought it would great to have but this is a larger capacity unit that’s in a 2900 square foot house. The humidity might be higher near the unit than it is farther away. So I bought a good $9 temp/humidity gauge for where I am most concerned about keeping the humidity at a good level. So no gauge on the humidifier doesn’t matter to me any more.
I have this unit set on the highest humidity and fan speed. It sits downstairs where I can fill it with filtered water from the kitchen faucet. I put it as the base of the stairs to keep the upstairs bedrooms humidified at night. The humid air rises and keeps the upstairs very comfortable. Great, because otherwise I’d have to put the unit upstairs and then either use unfiltered water or be running up and down stairs. Noise is not loud even on the highest setting. Pretty quiet on the lower settings.
I’m very happy with the result. Humidity levels now are in the 45 to 50 percent range, which is perfect. My lungs feel great and breathing is much easier. Plus I don’t wake up to dry sticky congestion that takes two hours to clear out every day. I wake up as clear as when I went to bed.
One more thing... it takes a while for the humidity level in the house to increase. It was in the mid 20% to low 30% before I bought this unit. It immediately raised the humidity a few % but took a few days to get up into the 40’s. That’s to be expected because when you start out, the walls, flooring, furniture, cabinets, beds, etc will soak up some of the moisture in the air until their moisture levels raise too.
This unit has the capacity and features to make it perfect for me. I’m seldom so happy with purchases as I am with this. I’d have been happy with it at twice the price.
Someone asked about the need to clean this thing. In my case it requires very little cleaning. Externally it collects dust like everything else. Internally, it probably would depend on the level of purity of the water you use with it. The only actual effort I have to put to maintain it properly (beside keeping up with the water level) is to flip the wicking filter. The first 6 months, I did not do that because I did not understand the value of doing this.
The wicking filter if not reverse regularly, starts to dry up on top. The dried up part stops wicking, and this is irreversible. It is like if its become dead in a way. Once this process has started it keep ongoing until the wick becomes so ineffective that it must be replaced. By flipping the wicking filter regularly (I would recommend a minimum of twice a week. Once every day would be ideal. ...the wicking filter will remain efficient for a much longer period of time.
40% when the weather is cold and our gas furnace is really drying out the air. However it does have some
"issues." The first probably applies to most wick-type humidifiers, the wick dries out as it works and if you have the fan on high (or "turbo") it dries it out fairly quickly and this degrades performance. We turn the wick over when we refill it (this takes some practice to pull the fan housing straight up between the tanks and then flip the wick without splashing too much water on the floor) and this helps but it's not always practical such as overnight when we're sleeping. This model has tanks that can be filled from the top with a pitcher rather than taking the tank to the faucet--we prefer this but I can understand if others don't. The problem we occasionally have with the tanks is that they do not always allow the water to flow into the unit (other reviewers have mentioned this). We wake up in the morning, the humidity in the room has dropped, the wick is bone dry and one of the tanks is still full. We have tried jiggling the tank after we fill it and this seems to help but not consistently. When the unit is working correctly it does do a good job--the problem is that it doesn't always work.

Would be better with bigger reservoirs like previous models.
