Broksonic Ultrasonic Humidifier and Diffuser

Broksonic Ultrasonic Humidifier and DiffuserUp north, the winters are dry despite the snow, so my husband and I like to have a humidifier in the bedroom. I've always hated the way they looked, but it was an ugly necessity. But now, this little number has solved the problem. It's beautiful and runs silent, filling the room with just the right amount of moisture. Keep in mind it has a limited water reservoir, so it has to be refilled nightly, and is made for a smaller space, such as a bedroom. It has settings for different levels of humidity and alerts you when the water tank is empty. Well made, durable, and handsome!

Purchased this for my condo since it gets really dry in the winter time. Very sleek design and functions really well. Gets lots of compliments from visitors. Not so heavy and easily portable from room to room. Leave it on for a day and you'll notice that your skin isn't as dry and it's easier to breath, and no more static electricity =)

I first saw this in Japan last October but I didn't want to hassle to bring it all the way back to the States. I was very impressed though. I finally find this product for sale in U.S. market. I jumped to buy it immediately. I've had it for a couple of weeks, just as wonderful as expected. It's plastic, don't get me wrong but it doesn't give off the cheap feel. It actually look like a ceramic vast. Beautiful and functional!! I'm very happy owning it!!

This unit is seriously a stopper.

Usually with fancy units they're so complicated to work,this one is really simple.

On a touch of a button the unit turns on with a beeping sound and a light,and when the water is done there is a beeping sound and the units turns off automatically.

This one even let's out a fine mist like true designand it comes with an aroma tray so you can add any scent.

Were really thrilled that we purchased the unit in real it looks even better than the picture we were always hiding our humidifier this one can be displayed we got so many compliments.

25-cigar Riviera Humidor

25-cigar Riviera Humidor
  • keeps under 25 cigars
  • brass frame hygrometer
  • comes with a round humidifier
  • Lined with premium kiln dried Spanish cedar
  • features a scratch-resistant felt lined bottom

I am very happy with this humidor. It is a well crafted box with a beautiful classy look. The hindges work smoothly with no sign of flaw. There is no gap in the seems and no signs of leak. As a first time humidor buyer I would like to have seen more literature with this product to guide me on set up and use. I was also a little unhappy with waiting for my humidor for nearly a month. In all fairness I am stationed overseas, however I receive other products ordered on line in 7-10 days. This humidor does come with a humifier and a hydrometer which work fine, but they are very cheap devices. I felt compelled to purchase better working devices to replace them. Regardless, I would still recommend the purchase of the humidor if you need a small desk top humidor to store 10 to 25 cigars. Considered the cheap devices as freebees. I did have to contact customer service regarding this order as one item was missing upon delivery. The customer response and support was outstanding and definately made up for my disappointments on this order.

The Hygrometer is worthless. The Humistat is a foam filled type unit. Humistat works well. Just remember on the initial charge do not use a 50/50 solution. 1 part glycol to 6 parts distilled water and it will hold 70% humidity for a month per fill. The actual Humidor is fantastic. Seals nicely. Provides a slight spice to cigars like true Spanish Cedar should. Just replace the crap Hygrometer with a good digital and it's a perfect unit.

This isn't the best Humidor in the world, but you can't beat the quality for the price you pay. It's large and sturdy, plus it looks good on my end table. The adhesive on the included hydrometer is a little weak, but some crazy glue took care of that in a jiffy. I would definitely recommend this for someone who is looking for a way to store and display their cigars tastefully but doesn't want to spend a whole lot of money.

This humidor is great for a first time humidor buyers, like myself. It's real spanish cedar on the inside that make your cigars smell and taste delicious. The outside looks classy and elegant, despite it being veneer. The humidor comes with a small humidifier and hygrometer. The sticky material used to hold the humidifier and hygrometer to the lid of the humidor doesn't stay well, so I had to super glue it on. The humidifier has a nice magnetic backing so you can remove it from the base and refill it with distilled water/propylene glycol (which I just use cheap rewetting eye drops). It also comes with an instruction booklet that tells you how to break in (season) your humidor, charging and filling your humidifier, calibration of the hygrometer, and how to store and clean it. The supplied hygrometer, however, doesn't have a small screw on the back to calibrate it if it is off, so you'll just have to know that it's off by 10, 15, 20, etc. Though there are those few minor deficiencies, the price offsets them. If you're a first time humidor buyer, you don't want to spend a lot of money, and you're not sure what to buy, I highly recommend this model.

Good item for the price but hygrometer is somewhat cheap but replacing it with a better one it works just fine.

GE 50 Pint White Dehumidifier - ADEH50LP

GE 50 Pint White Dehumidifier - ADEH50LPFor 3-4 months these units work great.

BUT THEN even with extremely careful use in a climate controlled, unfinished basement...

I owned THREE of the previous model with the exact same features and specifications (except the Energy Efficiency Rating was a bit higher on the previous model) and FOUR of this model.

On the three previous models one FAILED in two months, and the remaining two FAILED within 9 months. Apparently, there is a MAJOR PROBLEM with the design, parts, and/or assembly that allows the refrigerant to slowly leak from the system. Thus, after a few months (typically) the coils start to slowly frost over lightly when the compressor activates, decreasing moisture removal. Quickly, the problem worsens. Soon, the unit is CONSTANTLY frosting over, defrosting itself, frosting over, defrosting, etc when activated by the humidistat.

On the four of the current model... One was Dead On Arrival. One, the compressor would never engage (even when set on Continuous). And, the remaining two began the constant cycling between frosting over and defrosting after only 4 or 5 months of use.

In addition, on these two units the metal framing that holds the coils rusted EXTREMELY QUICKLY to the point that the water receptacle is now discolored bright red-orange AND chunks of rusted metal appear in collection bucket daily AND small rust flakes are expelled with the air from the top of the unit.

Definitely NOT what one would expect from a dehumidifier that costs between $150.00-$200.00 PER UNIT.

Saw some bad reviews on the model and wanted to put in my 2 cents. I bought one of these to replace one that was in the basement when we bought our house. For 3 years its been running almost non-stop (does turn off at set humidity level in winter but spring to fall is constant). When the second one in the basement that came with the house dies I got an LG on sale at Home Depot and its dead after less than 2 years. Looking to get another GE to replace that piece of crap LG.

We purchased this dehumidifier after reading a recommendation from the Consumer Reports website (our faith in Consumer Reports went down after our experience with this product). We initially were happy with our purchase; however, after 7 months the device stopped working:

A) the built-in hygrometer appeared to malfunction and the device stopped removing moisture from the air (unless we set it to remove moisture continuously, which is an option on the device)

B) after using the device in "continuous" mode for 1 week, ice crystals began forming on the front of the device we turned it off and called GE.

Their solution was to ship us a "good will certificate" for the purchase of another GE dehumidifier (the certificate is worth a maximum of $250). We're in the process of ordering a new one.

The device operated in a climate controlled section of our home. We also own a Delonghi DD50P Dehumidifier purchased at the same time: The Delonghi operates in our garage which is not climate controlled and is still functioning well.

While GE support was kind/responsive, this GE product was unreliable/appears to be poorly engineered and/or manufactured.

It seems to work fine in my basement. I was confused at first because it seemed that the fan ran constantly while the compressor cycled on and off based on the humidity setting, but then I discovered that the fan runs for just a few minutes after the compressor turns off. Wish the manual mentioned that behavior. So now my only complaint is that something is rattling in the water reservoir and I haven't figured out what it is so am just living with it. Not a huge deal, just a slight annoyance since i'm not in the basement that often. Rating = 4 stars.

6/1/13 update: I only use the unit in the summer when the humidity level in the basement gets too high. When I turned it on this year (season 3) the fan blew but the compressor never turned on. I took it to be repaired and was told the compressor was leaky and not repairable. It only had a one year warranty, so I'm out of luck. Plan to buy a Frigidaire replacement, but I suspect all the newer units are not built to last like my old bullet-proof Wards unit (it was running fine after 20+ years but was a little short on capacity and I thought a newer one would be more efficient, so replaced it). Reduced the rating to one star.

I bought this unit at Sams Club in June of 2011. In June 2013 the unit will no longer take moisture out of the air. Sure it will run the fan and cost electricity but that's about it. The warranty is only good for one year and after that a repair call from GE will cost you $80 plus parts. This is my second and last GE unit. My first unit lasted twice as long.

Hunter 31960 Demineralization Tablet for 31004 Humidifier

Hunter 31960 Demineralization Tablet for 31004 HumidifierI purchased these because they were advertised to reduce the white dust that's endemic to ultrasonic humidifiers. After a couple weeks of use, the dust was in fact made worse. Furthermore, it caused the vapor to actually hang in the air so that there was a slight haze in the room. I suspect the tablets are mostly salt as used in any water softener, but there is no ingredient list on the packaging or anywhere else I could find on the internet. I suspect the tablets are only good for preventing the white minerals that builds up on surfaces INSIDE the humidifier (this happens with any humidifier type). It does nothing for the minerals that are vaporized and put into the air that later settle down all over one's furniture. Perhaps their performance is related to water hardness--but mine is not particularly hard. Exceptionally disappointing-I'm still looking for a solution.

I have a The Sharper Image EV-HD10 Cool Mist Ultrasonic 1-Gallon Humidifier with Clean Mist Technology and this tablet really only lasts for one gallon. I haven't been totally convinced that it helped with white dust but it seems to have helped kill any musty bacterial growth, which is good enough for me.

It might prolong the life of the humidifier or decrease smells and mineral buildup, but it does not eliminate white dust. Don't buy it if your goal is to do that.

The demineralization tablets packaging states it "eliminates white dust" amongst other claims. They not only fail to eliminate the white dust, using them in my humidifier created even more white dust. I emailed the Hunter company and explained my dissatisfaction with their product and the only response from Hunter was that "the tablets were not tested or approved for humidifiers of any other manufacturer" than Hunter. I responded back to Hunter and advised them that their packaging does not indicate they may not work in other brand humidifiers.

Therefore, if you own an ultrasonic humidifier that is not Hunter's brand, my advise would be to not waste your money on these tablets.

I bought these tablets because we had been seeing some white dust on furniture and such, when using a cool mist humidifier.

After filling the tank and placing one tablet in the tank, I noticed that it dissolved in minutes not a week. I was careful to place in the tank AFTER it was done filling with water. So then after doing this and letting the unit run, we noticed a haze in the house. Not just some white dust but our house filled with a white haze. The white residue from these tablets is a whole lot worse than the white dust that comes without using these.

They were expensive considering they lasted for only 1 tankful of water. And the dust they created will be forever to get rid of.

Don't make the same mistake I just made......use distilled water or something else not these tablets.

I put in 3 of these tablets into my ultrasonic humidifier. I thought this would allow me to use regular water instead of distilled. Wrong. The tablets had ZERO effect. White dust everywhere. Complete waste of money. There ought to be a law against selling completely useless products.
