When we bought this humidifier we absolutely loved it. We liked the lights, the easy refill and easy cleaning. But after a weeks it stopped misting. It would only mist if it was tilted sideways. We went to replace it but couldn't find it in any stores in our area or online. Too bad!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

I love this humidifier! Living out in the desert, I go almost the entire year with either the heat or air conditioning going at night. The dryness led to a lot of sinus infections so my doctor suggested I get a humidifier and this one is great. It's small and portable and does a wonderful job in my large bedroom. Also, it's not very noisy (very important because I'm a very light sleeper)...I would describe the noise as being very similar to rainfall - strangely soothing. I recommend it 100% Actually came back to order another one online and found it backordered so others must be catching on.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Review 5 for QuietCare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier
Overall rating
Horrible product
,PostedNovember 9, 2008
I researched humidifiers before purchasing one for my infant's room. This one had several features I liked. Within a few months, it began leaking whenever I would fill it up. I changed the demineralization cartridges religiously, but the white dust was still HORRIBLE. On several occasions I used it in my room. There was so much white dust it caused me to cough and I have noticed my son doing the same. I have regretted this purchase all along and would not recommend this product. I will be certain not to purchase a humidifier with a nebulizer again.
No, I do not recommend this product.

After using a rather bulky humidifier in my bedroom, I saw this online and went to my local store to pick one up. It's stylish and VERY quiet compared to other humidifiers that I've used. White dust is most definitely a problem but the demineralization cartridge works great to prevent it. I am not quite sure why some people have said that it's hard to fill up because I've had no trouble whatsoever doing so. I just set it down into either the kitchen sink or the bathtub and fill it up and then towel it off afterwards, if needed. I've also not had any leakages with this humidifier as other people have. I'm very pleased with this humidifier!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Leaks
,PostedApril 16, 2008
I read a review that this product leaked, but because I liked the options, I bought it anyway to give it a try--mistake. Although I liked the style, size, quality of humidity, controls, and quiet operation, the fact that it leaked all over my carpet negates those wonderful qualities and warrants a rating of 1. It was only 9 weeks old. Would not recommend.
No, I do not recommend this product.

part easily broken = major leak
,PostedMarch 25, 2008
I bought this product twice. It worked well at first. Then the clear plastic over the little light bulb cracked and the water went all over the counter it was on. The second one broke just the second time leaving the dresser and floor soaking wet. If it was redesigned it would be a nice product.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Skeptical
,PostedMarch 9, 2008
I
bought the last one the store had for this season, and I got a dud. No
mist comes out of the vent, but it creats a really dence fog around the
base of the unit. Seems like the little fan won't work. I think it
would be a good unit other wise. Will try another store.

Review 10 for QuietCare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier
Overall rating
At least it's quiet
,PostedFebruary 17, 2008

After owning a steam-based humidifier I wanted something quieter and cheaper to operate. I wouldn't buy this one again and unless it was for a very small space. I bought this Honeywell model based on the ultrasonic technology which should mean a quiet system. This one is quiet, but there are a couple of deal-breaker problems for me: 1) It has a very poorly designed fill system with a small access hole. It's cumbersome to hold and requires some toweling off after filling it under the tub spout because the product isn't sealed well around the bottom and it will leak down the interior sides from overflow (it doesn't leak when upright and sealed). 2) It doesn't hold much water and the dissipation volume is significantly lower than my older steam-based system. 3) Ultrasonic systems inherently create a white dusting mist and require regular disinfecting. On the 'plus' side, it is quiet, stylish and likely much more energy efficient than steam. Bottom line though, I want a humidifier to humidify, and this one doesn't make a significant difference in our bedroom compared to our old humidifier.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Review 11 for QuietCare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier

Not up to par
,PostedFebruary 8, 2008

from Chicago, IL
I purchased this humidifier mainly for cost, and had I to do it again I'd just pay more for a better product.
The water tank needs to be tipped upside down to be filled, and that's what leaks - it doesn't leak when it's on the base. However, using it for almost a week straight, I've noticed a reddish mildew has formed inside the base, as well as on parts of the water tank. I will have to empty the base (it never fully empties even when the water runs out of the tank) and let it stand to dry for a day, then probably need to clean it with bleach water to remove the mildew. It also comes with an extra filter cartige meant to remove or reduce the white dust that can come from humidifiers, but the cartige doesn't sit in the base snuggly and there is white dust everywhere - so I'm not sure I've even inserted it right. The directions are unclear.
I'm going to return it and get a better one.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Review 14 for QuietCare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier
Overall rating
Leaky, Leaky!
,PostedFebruary 10, 2007
HATE IT! I bought 3 and I'm returning 1 because it leaks like a sieve. I debating about the other 2 because they leak when I turn them over to fill them. The unit is hard for one person to fill because of its slant top, you can't set it down in the sink. It's hard to hold the unit in one hand and turn the water on and off. As the unit fills, it gets heavy and awkward to hold unless you use two hands, or two people, of which I don't have the luxury. About the only thing I did like about it was how quiet it was.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Excellent Quality, Great Value
,PostedJanuary 18, 2007
This quality unit has a compact and sturdy design, which makes it perfect for apartments or individual rooms. It is quiet, portable, and easy to use. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. All of this for a very reasonable price. It also has the added benefit of an attractive design that doesn't detract from surrounding decor. Definitely a good buy.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Review 16 for QuietCare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier
Overall rating
good job for price & ease of use
,PostedJanuary 18, 2007
I've used this humidifier for the last 4 nights. It's doing a good job of moistening, but not over-saturating the air in my 13' x 16' bedroom. I have not been home for more than 10 hours at a time since I bought this model, so I'm not sure if it will over-saturate the air when I run it for longer periods. However, I'm not overly concerned about the product's lack of a humidity gage because winter air in NY is often around 20% on the humidity scale and I typically run my A/C vents to circulate air in my apartment.
I chose this model because it does not require a filter. It will be very easy (and inexpensive) to replace the demineralization cartridge when necessary.
A very small, but noticeable amount of moisture accumulates on the floor under the unit each night. I recommend using a plastic tray (such as a flat dish drainer) under the unit.
I plan to purchase an additional unit for use at the office.
Yes, I recommend this product.
