Whirlpool 8212501 PUMP-DRAIN

Whirlpool 8212501 PUMP-DRAINAfter 7 seasons of removing water from my dehumidifiers by hand I was ready to try a product like this.

The idea behind this product is simple.It works on the same principle as a sump pump.When the water reaches a certain point in the pumps well area,a quick burst of pumping action causes the water to flow up a hose and out to wherever you route the end of the hose-in my case through a drilled hole outside my basement area to the outside of my house.

Installation was easy enough.I simply cut the hose to my needed length,attached it to the unit,attached the other hose connection to my dehumidifiers hose connector (for condensation that comes out of the actual dehumidifier) and plugged the unit in.Let me mention(no laughing please)that I broke my nose during this simple installation by having too tight of a hole drilled to the outside for the outtake hose.I was pulling the hose with a needle nose plier to pull through the hole and ended up smashing my nose when the plier slipped and my knuckle came smashing on to my nose.I needed a nose job anyway...

Anyway,the unit works really well and now I can leave home for days at a time and know that my basement is at a safe 45% humidity level.Without the unit turned on it would be twice that amount at least.

Just be aware that the dehumidifier pump needs to be physically lower than the dehumidifier.The gravity will force the condensation down the hose in to the dehumidifier pump.I made the mistake of leaving both level with each other and found the the water was just building up and began running out on the the floor.

Besides the pliers hitting my face (I`ll remember it every time that pump turns itself on) and having to figure out that gravity needs to be used to make things work correctly, I am so happy with the results. If it lasts a few years it will be worth the 96 $ (shipping included) I paid for the pump.

Editors noteIt is now Oct of 09` and the pump continues to work perfectly. It has been on for the last two seasons (Apr-Oct of 08 and 09) and still no problems.

2nd editors note-It`s now May 2011 and unit still working perfectly

This pump worked as advertised several years but, as others have written, the plastic connection between the impeller blade and the magnet that the motor spins broke. This caused the motor to stay running but not pump anything. No harm done as I have a water sensor on the floor that alerted me to the overflowing reservoir. Tried using epoxy to fix it to no avail.

I agree with "Broke": after less than one year, the plastic impeller shaft assembly disintegrated.

This item worked great for a year then it broke. The motor was good but the assembly that actually pumped the water was cheap and wore out. Not a good value for the price.

The pump is fine , and the price was very good. The discharge hose supplied with the pump was inferior, and had to be replaced with one that was not so badly compressed. Whirlpool shouyld supply a better vinyl discharge hose for these pumps

Quality Importers Cigar Caddy Crystals Gel Humidification, Large, 4-Ounce Jar

Quality Importers Cigar Caddy Crystals Gel Humidification, Large, 4-Ounce JarIt's working fine! But make sure you season your humidor first. Otherwise you'll be feeding the cedar more than your cigars. I purchased two bottles and yes, they're 4 ounces each.

I purchased this Humidifier about a month ago, and it has been working very well. I have checked it several times, and the moisture is being relaesed. The gel gets smaller as it releases the moisture. I am very satisfied with this product. I cannot give it 5 stars, only because I have not had it very long, however, I would reccomend it!

It is now October 9th and I have had a digital hygrometer in the Humidor. Yes this is the 4oz size. This Cigar Caddy has kepth the humidity between 66-72% for several months. I can now give this 5 stars!!!!!!!!

If you smoke and store cigars this is a MUST HAVE for your Humidor. I've used the foam one that I got for the box but it gave me a false feeling that my cigars were well taken care of.

SU-2081B: Digital Ultrasonic Humidifier with Hygrostat Sensor

SU-2081B: Digital Ultrasonic Humidifier with Hygrostat SensorI purchased this item to help aid a vaporless humidifier. Our home is extremely dry during winter, registering at only 18% humidity.

Within an hour of plugging in the SU-2081B, humidity levels jumped to 44% in our 300 sq ft master bedroom. I soon found that I no longer needed the first vaporless humidifier, and found the SU-2081B worked wonders all on its own.

Be aware, this DOES emit a cloud of vapor, but it dissapates quickly and over the last two months has created no moisture or mold issues at all. It even has a built in register that allows you to set the level of humidity you prefer. We set ours at 35%, and the machine turns itself on and off to maintain that level.

It also has an Ionizer and a nightlight, neither of which we've used, but it's nice to know they are available.

The best part is the swivel nozel that allows up and down direction of the mist as well as a 360 degree rotation.

For a 300 sqft room, I need to refill the container once a day. Really easy to use and we could not be happier.

I am not sure if my place is just EXTREMELY dry but the humidity level hardly moves! I have it running almost 24/7 and can't really tell much of a difference. However I do like the light!

Honeywell H39850 Shark Infinity Replacement Belt

Honeywell H39850 Shark Infinity Replacement BeltThe item looked like good quality, however it didn't fit our Shark Infinity vacuum... this is likely my fault for not realizing there were different Shark Infinity models. I am pleased at how fast it was picked up and I was given a refund.

I have a Shark Upright Infinity vacuum and need to replace the roller belts. These belts do not fit anywhere! When I tried to return them to eAccess, they promised to accept the return and pay for the initial shipping, item, and return shipping. They messed up the transaction and then refused to pay for the return shipping. The cost to return the item was more than the product!

These belts are hard to come by, as the machine I have is a model not manufactures anymore. Amazon does not discriminate; these belts are for multiple machines, and the price is extremeley reasonable, and availability was better than the Shark web site could tell me.

This package of belts is what I needed for my Shark Infinity Model NV31 Date Code 36/06 which has 2 different belts; a short belt and a long belt. The package includes both belts. These belts are no longer available from Euro-Pro (Shark).

High Quality Humidifier Filter Water Panel Pad Designed To Fit Aprilaire Humidifier Models 560, 560

High Quality Humidifier Filter Water Panel Pad Designed To Fit Aprilaire Humidifier Models 560, 560A, 568, 600, 600A, 600M, 700, 700A, 700M, 760, 760A, 768; Compare To Aprilaire 35 Water Panel PartThis Water Panel Pad was exactly as advertised, the exact replacement for the 15-year old filter it replaced. It was a perfect fit.

The pad is a high quality pad but shipped in a soft package wrapped very tightly in bubble wrap with no markings. Not knowing what it was (and confusing it with something else that was ordered due to lack of markings) we damaged the pads just trying to get them out of the tight wrapping. Again the pads are great, just be careful getting them out of the mailing packaging.

SPT Warm-Mist Humidifier with Fragrance Oil Diffuser

SPT Warm-Mist Humidifier with Fragrance Oil DiffuserI feel the need to review this product since it only had one when I ordered it..

I got this unit used (like new) at a very good price. For the price I paid, I'd say it's an excellent buy. I've never owned a humidifier before, but I'm a picky consumer and it simply works well. At the full 'new' price, though, it may not be the best bang for your buck.

I was most concerned about noise and leakage. This unit does make some soft noise.. the bubbling noise. Fortunately, the noise it makes blends into the background nicely so it is unlikely to disturb your sleep. It's quite a pleasant sound, actually, like a light rainfall. I also haven't seen any leakage yet.

Like the other reviewer said, the power light is pretty bright, so you might want to tape over it or something. The 2-hr timer is really useful when you don't want it running til it goes dry. The auto-shutoff seems to work properly -it turns off and an indicator light goes on when the tank is low. Note that this unit only has one power level.. you can't adjust the vapor output.

It has an attractive appearance.. minimalistic and unassuming. The only thing that bothers me is that it's pretty much 100% plastic, but that's probably the case with most small humidifiers. I do smell something which I assume is the plastic.. though I'm hoping the scent will diminish with use.

It's a nice, small-footprint humidifier. I've never used the diffuser (which is just a tiny cup in the "grill"--nothing special), but it works fine as a basic humidifier. It's very easy to clean, and difficult to tip over accidentally. There are just two drawbacks: it sounds like those $15 "boiler" humidifiers that you can pick up at a drugstore, and you have to refill it twice a day if you're running it 24-7. The blue light is a bit bright, but you turn it to the wall and problem solved. It's a good little unit.

I wanted something to use at night and I needed it to have a timer. After using this humidifier I have to say it is very nice. It is very easy to refill, easy to clean and it just works good. I like the sound it makes boiling the water and it helps me fall sleep. I use the diffuser and add some oil in the cup which works very well. Over all this is a great machine and works the way it should.

This produces a nice warm mist. It's very quiet and easy to fill/operate. The only thing I'd improve is to have a cool water setting as for the winter this is great but it does warm the room and is too much for the summer. We have a separate humidifier for the winter (which by comparison is much louder and heavier and harder to keep clean). For a cool weather humidifier, 5 stars.

This is a decent humidifier for the money.

Pros: The tank holds enough water to get through the night. Low water indicator and water level window are nice features. The tank is about impossible to spill while filling and replacing. My wife likes the diffuser. The timer feature is nice, though I do not use it often.

Cons: The blue light illuminating the power switch is a bit annoying though. It's very bright and not cool when you are trying to sleep. I turned it to face the wall.
