    My original intention for this humidifier was to use it for plants that require high moisture levels. After using it in my room, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxtD9aJ2m6GU-X1IChQxjn9l31K1A7Kpwj however, I think that's where it is going to stay in the fall and winter season at least. The increased humidity in my room made the room warmer and more comfortable. I had first ran the humidifier for 4 hours with the timer setting for it. After the first hour, I checked my room and can feel the difference. When the full 4 hours was up, I checked again and noticed that the humidifier was shut off as it is suppose to. The moisture level never seem to get passed 56/57%. I then let it run until all the water is used up, which it wasn't all used up. There are still some left in the base that you are not suppose to add water to. I filled up the water tank all the way again, being careful when removing it from the base. Some left over water may spill out. After putting it back on and setting the unit to auto, I let it operate. It didn't stop running, rather I don't know if it did at any point since I didn't check it regularly, for 24 hours after which the water in the tank ran out. The moisture reading never passed 56/57%, which may be a good thing for me. Being situated right next to my bed, the noise was not very noticeable with the occasional water gurgle from time to time as the unit ran.

  • @alondra8288

    I like how you emphasized on being cautious and taking care of your humidifier. 🤗For those who live in constant dry heat and are planning on getting a humidifier, starting off with low levels of humidity and slowly increasing can help regulate the levels in your body so it gets use to the humidity. I never owned a humidifier, but my brother had one as a child because he had constant nosebleeds, and it did contribute to helping them stop.

    Great video. For anyone who is thinking about purchasing this, it's $39.99 at Walmart as of 8/2021. Tip: there's a coupon inside for your "next purchase". Do what I did- open the lid of the box and grab that coupon to use right then and there! I did it at self checkout in front of an employee and no one said anything. Saved just $1.50 , but hey it's something. Much love to everyone and good vibes 😊

    I have a misting humidifier of a different brand. While the humidity improved, I also found that it was adding significant amounts of particulate matter to my indoor air to hazardous levels according to my air quality meter. That was likely due to the tap water I was using, but to use distilled water would be very very expensive. An evaporative humidifier that uses heat doesn't add particulate matter to the air but doesn't humidify quite as evenly as the mister.

    Wow, great informational video. However, you've been getting ripped off of you've paid $80 for one of these. They have been around for a while now, (years) and I have never paid more than $40 for one. They stay on the shelves at Walmart for that price. It's worked great for us and we just use filtered, tap water. I clean it weekly though which can be a pain and easily forgotten. Sunday evening chore that is totally worth it for the sleep you can get. Especially if you have gas heat in the winter with no humidifier on the unit. I recommend this lil turd for sure. The wife and I like it a lot. We've bought 2 so far.

But if i were to get one i would probably go with something a little more budget friendly even though the Vicks sounds awesome. Great review, very informative👍

    If you're looking to buy this DON'T we got one and found it next to unless. The biggest problem we found is that you, have to run it on distilled water. If you use regular tap water it puts a fine dust out that goes over everything. In the end we got an evaporation type humidifier that not only is way more effective it produces zero dust and works just fine on regular tap water.
