Ultrasonic Mist Maker Fogger Water Fountain Pond 12 LED

Ultrasonic Mist Maker Fogger Water Fountain Pond 12 LEDI purchaed a Ultrasoinic Mist Fogger Water Fountain Pond 12 LED that was advertised as "Ideal for indoor or outdoor fountains". When I received the product there was no product information in the package and appeared to be used. When I took the fogger out of the package to place in my outdoor fountain the powerpack reads: CAUTION Risk of Electric Shock Dry Location Use Only For Indoor Use Only.

This is the emails I received from the buyer when I ask for return information and a refund:

Thanks for your time.

Could you please kindly tell us if the item can work?

If yes,we could issue you $3 refund as compensation,is it fine?

Hope to hear from you soon.

This was after I was ask for pictures of the product. I paid $10.99 plus shipping for the item which is not the point. The vendor did not represent the product correctly in the advertising and I find the offer of $3.00 offensive if I had not wanted a refund for the item I would not have contacted the vendor in the first place.

I would not have have given them one (1) star but it was the only way it allow the review to post.

I purchased this to replace a similar product that came with an indoor fountain I got several years ago. It has three colors of LED lights, blue red, yellow, and it cycles through the colors: red, red/blue, blue, blue/yellow, yellow, yellow/red, repeat. The only difference I can spot between this and the one it replaces is that it generates less mist. It's also a little shorter so the water depth has to be a bit lower.

Between the lights and the mist, it's a cool effect. The mist is sufficient to cover the surface of a small fountain or bowl but doesn't spill over the edge much. The mist is really what makes this kind of gadget, so I'm knocking it down one star for being just a bit skimpy in that department.

I haven't been able to find another of these for less than $20, so at $7, the price is definitely right.

Update: This is no longer available at $7. At $27.57, the currently listed price, this is no longer a good deal. It's even less a good deal because the item has now completely failed. After four months, the yellow and red LED lights stopped working. And yesterday, the ultrasonic mister stopped working. I can no longer recommend this item.

Items arrived in good condition.

Problem is one has already failed in use.

Before I even got a chance to review the item.

China made and poor quality...

This is the second one I've ordered. The first lasted a year, running 24hours a day, and going dry a few times. If it had lasted longer I'd have given it full stars, but a year isn't bad for the price. These are prefect for growing orchids. My orchids do okay with daily misting from a spray bottle, but they don't truly thrive without the humidity of a fogger. If you are growing tropical plants like orchids indoors, I highly recommend this fogger. Just place it in a vase or bowl above or next to your plants. I place mine on the shelf above my orchids with the highest humidity preferences (those that go dry in 3 to 4 days) and on the same shelf as those with moderate humidity requirements (those that go dry in 6-10 days). If it splashes too much for your location you can place it's container in a larger bowl, or place it on a large drip tray or plate. I've even used mine in a tall decorative vase. Less fog reaches the plants when you do that and it is harder to monitor the water level, thus why my old one ran dry a few times, but it does prevent splashing. The lights are lovely at night. They create a soft colorful glow, nothing too bright. The light level would be nice as a nightlight in a child's room.

I purchased two of these foggers and only one worked. I took the broken one apart re-adjusted some parts and cleaned up the rust on the wires inside. it was a quick fix establishing a connection and repositioning some parts to prevent water from getting in. If I had paid more for this I would be highly upset. Both of these should have been assembled correctly, new, and WORKING.

Large Lattice Steamer, 2.3 qt., in Black

Large Lattice Steamer, 2.3 qt., in BlackIt's a very pretty humidifier, but it's hard to see the water level and if you over fill, the water spills all over the top of the stove. For us that is a problem, as our stove top is rarely cool and it's hard to clean the hard water stains off when it is. Vinegar works well, but it leaves a film that turns white when the surface heats up again. But, I suppose the worst thing, the thing that gave it a 3 star in my opinion, is that it rocks on the surface when the water boils because the bottom is not flat.

Another other issue is that the photo shows the trivet, but if you read carefully, the trivet is not part of this offer. So, if you have a husband who sees a picture and likes what he sees, you may not get what you see. Another thing, and it's minor, but had I been ordering this, I would have noticed, it doesn't come with free shipping, so it cost around $70 for this item. I bit pricey for a Made in China product.

No, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I'm anxiously awaiting the tea pot humidifier to come back in stock. But, who knows, it may have the same issues ;-(

HAC-700PDQ Honeywell Humidifier Wick Filter (2 Pack)

HAC-700PDQ Honeywell Humidifier Wick FilterThese are really the only filters I can find for this humidifier, unfortunately they don't do a very good job. The "antimicrobial" layer makes doesn't prevent bacterial growth so much as prevent the humidifier from being effective. It is so thick that the air barely seems to be able to move through it and actually humidify. And it turns pink with bacteria within a few weeks. I'm thinking about just getting a different humidifier since I can't seem to make this one do it's job with these filters.

Bought these as a replacement for my Honeywell humidifier. I was worried that the humidifier was broken because after cleaning it (with old filters in it) it would not work properly. Once the new filters arrived it worked like new again. While these ones are different from the ones that came with the product they work just fine.

These filters arrived on time and as advertised. I should probably mention that for the humidifier to work, it needs BOTH filters in the box (something I didn't realize until everything came). But, other than my error, they work great.

This is the 4th humidifer I have had in my childrens room. The room is very large and most humidifers are not strong enough. These filters are the best replacement filters I have been able to find. The bacteria build up is unfortunately a problem with all the humidifers I have found. Using Holmes S1708 Bacteriostat for Cool Mist Humidifiers has seemed to resolve that issue and actually helped the filter last longer.
