Product review (2 stars): THIS DOESN'T SUCK!  Read my review....
Can't say I liked anything about it.  The wicking action only goes half way up the "wick".  I have to flip it over at least every other day to keep it from gettng too dry on the top.  The original wick had a blue material (felt?) that covered the exterior of the filter.  That seemed to help retain water wicked into the filter.  The replacement from the "original supplier", Honeywell does not have the exterior cover.  It truly doesn't suck!  It may work better if it had a tighter webbing to promote capillary filling of the wick. Generally very disatisfied with this product, but can't find a replacement similar to he original filter that worked fine.
