Just received my humidifier a few days ago to use as a health aide for my 95 year old mother who has had multiple nose bleeds recently. This humidifier is a delight in every way. It is light weight, very quiet, runs a lot longer than most, easy to maneuver, has a powerful mist and beautiful color spectrum to truly enjoy in every way. And even my mother's therapist commented on how healthy she looked today! Plus the vertical design adds more functionality and could be considered a conversation piece too.
