The trouble with this type of humidifiers is that they break up easily.
Rating: 3 / 5
Pros: Is cool. Other humidifiers I have had heated up the room with steam. Easier to clean than most.
Cons: No humidity indicator. No steam and although the reservoir is empty after a days run I cannot feel moisture in the air. I have to assume it is there though because that water had to go somewhere.

We were in need of a humidifier because the two that we had (same model–one upstairs and one downstairs) both broke within a couple of months of each other. We knew we didn’t want to purchase the same ones as before for obvious reasons so we started our search. We saw the Sunbeam model on Amazon and it seemed to have most of the features we were looking for. We were suprised that the controls were not electronic but we weren’t bothered by having to use a knob–as long as it worked well and lasted. We are pleased to say that so far it has worked very well. It is quiet, and the best part for me is the design of the tank. They made it easy to fill. It has a handle on the tank that you can hold while filling it, or if you prefer, you can place it down (in a tub or large sink)to fill it because it is flat on the bottom(or the top depending on how you look at it). It does go through water pretty frequently–maybe our house is dry. It goes through about 1 1/2 tanks per day. So we have to be mindful of that. We are hopeful that it lasts longer than our other humidifiers did, then it will really have been a smart purchase!! Time will tell…

This humidifier really is easy to use, fill, and clean. However, within the first week of owning it, using it according to directions, it smelled as if it were smoking/burning. It did this on two separate occasions. It really smelled as if the motor would catch fire. I returned it and won’t be buying another one.

This machine works Great and is very easy to refill. The unit is well-designed. There is a hold tab on the top of the water tank, so it is easy to insert into base. It has a handle on the bottom of the water tank, so it is easy to carry and refill the tank. Overall, a good little unit for the price.
