Question: is this a cool mist humidifier or something else thanks rebecca
Document: We have been using this humidifier for two years now in our house in Cleveland and have purchased a second unit to use for our apartment in Las Vegas. I have found that evaporative humidifiers do a better job of raising the humidity level in the air than cool/warm mist units - those tended to put out a lot of steam that just settled to the floor around the unit. These units are fairly basic, no screens or programs, just two knobs for controls.
We previously used warm humidifiers but we had to clean them weekly or they would stop working because of the mineral build up. We tried cool mist humidifiers and I didn't like them as much 1st  because I didn't think that they worked as good as a warm mist and 2nd  because of the white dust they create, my husband didn't mind it because he didn't have to dust every day. We finally started looking for a bigger humidifier that would not need to be filled often and would work better.
Take note that this humidifier is running together with three other 1-gallon capacity cool mist $30 humidifiers which are really quiet. Two are in the 2nd floor bedrooms.5. The filter is located at the back of the unit where the air comes in. This means you cannot place the back of humidifier against a wall. Provide 2-3" clearance.6. There are three small holes on top of the filters' plastic case where water flows down, filtered and mixed with air.
I have tried all types of humidifiers over the years, and IMO the recirculating evaporative technology is the way to go.Cool mist humidifiers leave white dust all over the room. Warm mist humidifiers cost as much to run as an air conditioner.
When I have guests over, we just roll it into the laundry room while they are there and roll it back out when they leave. Everybody in my house feels a lot better. When we forget to add water, it just simply acts as a fan. Don't have to worry about the heater going bad because there isn't one. No need for a safety shutoff, or something else to go wrong.
My little town of 1300 has bad, bad water. So after only a couple months, even with putting in supplemental things to help the build up, I couldn't see the water level anymore. So I went to something else. It ended up not working either. Not sure if it was from the build up of our water or what, but if your water is good, you maybe ok. Just make sure you dont have bad water
I bought this about 2 months ago in a store. I took it back! It was so loud!! It was awful! Very noisy! I had it on the low fan and it was extremely loud! False advertising on box that says quiet operation or something on that order. That was the reason why I bought it. 1 star.As far as quality it was a cool looking machine, easy to fill, 3 speed fans,neat waterfall circulating on side, nice for large house.
My wife has dry eyes and we live in the desert. I purchased this humidifier and has been very pleased with it.Thanks for the great product.
Lasko's 9 gal. evap. recirculating humidifier did the trick of humidifying a large area. Easy to fill, relatively quiet. Thanks!
I have a Holmes humidifier that crapped out after a year and honestly never did a great job. This machine here just works. It will humidify your room in no time. All humidifiers are loud so ignore the negative comments about the noise. Honestly, a little "white" noise throughout the night blocks everything else out.
Answer: No, it's an evaporative. You won't see the vapors like with a mist humidifier.
