Holmes HM575-UC Warm Mist Humidifier

When I went to the hardware store to purchase this product, the humidifier gods were trying to tell me something. I picked up this humidifier and, to find out the price, I turned the box upside down. Much to my surprise, water came pouring out of the box and onto the floor.

As I later learned, the design of this product is quite conducive to this result. When you place the filled tank onto the base it slowly empties into a base where the water is heated. This water filled base is not isolated or sealed in anyway. As a result, the water is free to slosh over the sides of the base if you so much as nudge it or change its position after filling it.

This product is therefore less then useless, it is a hazard. I returned it as soon as it had dried. Perhaps I should have left the water in it to pass the message on.

I've owned this humidifier for about a year and I am now shopping for another kind. It did the job as far as getting me out of misery with my sinuses during the winter but there are some things I don't care for about it. The noise is ok, a little glug-glug now and then, almost sounds like a leak til you get used to it, which I did. It is very annoying to clean and I never felt like I was getting it clean enough. Output was great at first then not so impressive after a couple of months probably because of mineral buildup somewhere I couldn't get to. It got me out of a crisis but I wouldn't buy another one. Oh, well, you get what you pay for, right?

Very stylish, nice blue glow in the dark. It automatically shuts off when the water is out, and it stays dry when not being used. It is however too small, and the mist doesn't go very far hence not quite enough for personal overnight use. If this is the only humidifier you'll own, it will not be enough.

I'll be brief. Half the time that you try to turn this humidifier on, it will not work. It is such a cheaply-designed piece of equipment that the water tank will not even fall correctly when you try to reintroduce it to the humidifier casing. Imagine having to drop the refilled water tank into the humidifier TEN OR TWENTY TIMES after each refill until you finally get lucky and the humidifier actually decides to turn on. Also, this machine will produce some of the least steam that I have ever seen from a humidifier. My cat's breath provides more moisture to a room.

Horrendous.
