Honeywell Easy to Care Cool Mist Humidifier, HCM-710

I've been using the Honeywell Cool Mist for several weeks. It works great. Hums along on high about like a bathroom fan. I really like the convenience of using tap water, and not having to disassemble it when I fill it. It's easy to overlook regularly cleaning it, but beware, the filter gets very grungy after a month's use. You risk cultivating your own bacterial soup and blowing it out in your room if you fail to keep it clean. The anti-bacterial inserts might help, I didn't get one. Buy a bunch of filters so you can change them at least monthly.

I bought this humidifier from Sears to use in my bedroom after getting tired of filling the whole house humidifier.

I can tell the difference as to whether I use it or not. Definitely, it does add water to the air. It puts about 2 quarts of water into the air overnight, and then you can refill it and run it during the day if you want. Without it, I tend to get a dry throat and wake myself coughing. Maybe other brands do better. This one was adequate for what I needed.

I live in a small one bedroom apartment. During the winter months I run this humidifier 100% of the time, on the low (quiet) fan speed setting. I do this as preventative maintenance for chapped lips and hands. I've measured changes of between 10 and 20% in humidity using a digital hygrometer. This humidifier requires regular wick replacement at $13 a pop, as well as weekly cleaning to prevent it from smelling like a shoe. After 5 months of use, and maintenance, I am still satisfied with my purchase. Chapped lips and hands are a thing of the past!

I got mine at Target for $25 I let it run over an hour and the humidity didnt come up so I took it back. When I boil water the humidity reader goes up in 20 minutes. I got a Holmes warm mist & I love it.

We love the fact that you can just pour water into the top---no screw top lids that are difficult to handle. It is easy to clean and filters are easy to replace. The motor makes a very nice even sound---not too loud. We just ordered the allergy filters and will see if that helps some with our allergies. Another plus for this model is the fact that we have never had a problem with water leakage---the bottom section is solid--no seams to leak. Also, the knob is on the top and easy to see for easy on/off use. Overall the best feature is the ease of adding water! I would definitely buy another of this brand and style.
