Quality Importers Pompeii 100 Cigar Glasstop Humidor, Cherry

Quality Importers Pompeii 100 Cigar Glasstop Humidor, CherryNice simple humidor. I have one for myself that I have had for a few years that I like and bought this one for a friend. Not perfect, the analog humidistat needs occasional calibration (get a calibration pack) and the included humidifier should just get thrown out.

Get a 1/2 lb (I got a full pound) of Heartfelt beads and you are good to go!

Looks really nice for the price.

This is a beautiful high quality humidor and is very well constructed. I really like the glass top. The analog hygrometer is not very accurate as you would expect. I will need more time to see how well it holds the humidity during the dry winter months, but so far I am very pleased with this purchase and I would recommend this product.

MushPonic Kit - Plug n Play Hydroponic Mushroom Grow Kit

MushPonic Kit - Plug n Play Hydroponic Mushroom Grow KitWe received this product and it had no instructions with it we called the company they said they would send by email. It was a cartoon character with no pertinent information to our kit. We called the company received another email with different directions and Guess what, still not for our kit. Different parts and extra parts in box .Called the company again and they said the redesigned the box that's why all the parts weren't the same go ahead and assemble it and use it. I told them I did not believe it was a submersible pump they assured me it was.

You can't check it if it's under water with the pebbles over it ,you can't turn the knob either. It never got up to temperature and smelled up our back room with smoke.

This company is not helpful and obviously do not know there product very well. Total waste of money!

LED had a poor soldering job, I spent way too much time taking it apart and manipulating the wires getting it to light... for a while, finally the soldering broke altogether. Instructions show that the tank contains a hole to insert the heating element although my tanks contains no such hole. So far 1/3 growth, one molded jar and 2 without growth, although that might be the spore supplier. I've done this before just buying jars from another supplier and keeping in a dark closet and have had less hassle. I'm sure that if everything worked correctly I'd have a better yield but I bought from you to make life easier and you had the opposite affect, very disappointed :(.

I bought this kit with some spores from bestspores.com. Grew 2 grows with the same kit and had great results. Wish I could share with you some of my crazy experiences first time with mushies ;)

Had some problems with jars earlier, but they compensated for the inconvenience. I'm buying more edible mushroom kits soon too. They have good jars.

Vicks V5100N 1.7 Gallon Ultrasonic Humidifier

Vicks V5100N 1.7 Gallon Ultrasonic HumidifierWe've been very happy with this humidifier. The cool mist is very fine, so it feels more "misty" and less "damp" or "rainy" than some other humidifiers we've tried. The controls over how much or little mist it produces are effective, and it's very quiet. Although this product is a little more expensive than some other types of humidifiers, it's worth it. I know several people whose babies have been burned by warm mist humdifiers, and they also tend to breed bacteria, neither of which is a concern with this product. Also although we originally bought a cheaper humidifier, it turned out not to be as inexpensive as we first thought because we kept having to replace the wick and it quickly broke. This humidifier doesn't have "hidden costs" and is sturdy and well made.

Also if you take off the lid and watch what it does to produce the mist, it's really cool (not a reason to buy the product in itself, but interesting ....)

Our son gets asthma and croup from colds, so having a good humidifier was essential to keep his airway open. This was our third and final humidifier. After wasting our money on cheapo humidifiers that stopped working after a couple months, and that were awkward to fill and transport without spilling and to assemble correctly to get going, this humidifer worked like a charm. Sometimes there is a slight medicinal smell in the room in the morning, but it's not overwhelming, or that different from any other humidifier. We have had this humidifier for two years now and with proper maintenance it still runs like the day we bought it.

We tried 3 humidifiers for our baby, and this was the best. It's quiet, and the tank is big. You can get two night's use out of a single filling. I also like being able to control the amount and direction of the water vapor. The only downside is having to clean the tank and base on a regular basis (a small price to pay when your baby has cold).

As devotees of ultrasonic humidifiers, we snapped up 3 of these units to compete with the forced-air heat. There is a lot to like: large capacity tank, very quiet, fine mist. Unfortunately, I think there is some type of engineering problem with either the ultrasonic transducer or the water-level sensing circuit. We have sent two back for replacement, because they simply quit working -regardless of the cleaning and demineralizing routine. One replacement failed after two uses. One of the remaining three is now becoming erratic, and the ultrasonic transducer is delaminating. The water demineralizing cartridges are a great idea, and work pretty well, but be aware that they don't prevent all of the mineral dust. Still, use them.

So in short, these units are a great idea, but they need some better ruggedizing. My Holmes ultrasonic is 10 years old and still runs fine. You're lucky to get 10 months from these.

Like some of the other people reviewing this item, ours developed a bad odor after a month of use. I have cleaned the thing thoroughly according to the instructions, but it still smells bad. I cannot find the replacement filter anywhere. It's very good at producing mist, but the room gets saturated with the odor. It's the last time I'll buy a Vicks product.

Mini USB Humidifier and Aromatherapy Diffuser / White and Blue Aroma Diffuser - 250ML Water Contain

Mini USB Humidifier and Aromatherapy Diffuser / White and Blue Aroma Diffuser - 250ML Water Container CapacityNot really a humidifer at all. Yes it's a diffuser but it does not humidify the air, which is it's first claim to fame and the reason I bought it. Water sits in a well with a sponge and a fan blows the water that soaks up into the sponge. Had I known this and that it was shipping directly from China, I would have ordered from another on-line place, where it was much cheaper. Don't buy if you want a humidifer.

Honeywell HEPA Air Purifier Replacement Filter (16216)

Honeywell HEPA Air Purifier Replacement FilterThey fit a little tighter than the stock filters, but did not cause any issues. They filter great and keep my allergies under control.

They fall out of the air purifier and do not stay in well like the ones that came with it did.
