Great cool mist humidifier Date: February 14, 2009
"This is a great cool mist humidifier. I haven't tried the warm mist feature yet. It's quiet and the silver in the tank seems to deter bacteria growth. Two annoying things are a tiny screw in the cap that rusts and two big stickers on the front that leave residue behind when they are removed. And, yes, the blue light is bright enough to be seen from the Space Shuttle but applying layers of small pieces of white tape will allow you to customize the brightness to your liking."

The best humidifier I've had yet Date: November 19, 2008
"I have had several humidifers and this one is definitely the best one I've used yet. It replaced a Hamilton Beach one that required frequent filter replacement, only did cold mist, and built up a lot of gunk inside. This is a relatively hassle free piece of equipment. I've alternated between warm and cold mist and the output of steam is good. Although it's really efficient, I do wish the water tank was a bit bigger. I ran the thing for 2 weeks before having to take it apart and clean it, and it does build up residue (scales, staining) inside. The unit comes with a little brush to help clean the filter. Apart from the routine maintenance, which every air purifier seems to need, this is a painless unit to own. But yes, that blue front light is bright! (And I do wish it could monitor humidity levels.)"

Worth every penny Date: September 25, 2008
"Just received the Germinator humidifier yesterday. We used it last night for the first time and I can't tell you how much better I feel this morning...and that was with only a moderate humidity setting and using cool mist. Winters here in the Upper Midwest can be brutal, so I have a feeling that the warm mist settings will get used quite a bit.

It is well constructed, and it looks good. So many humidifiers out there are just cheap plastic. It really does run virtually silent. Can't even hear it when it's running.

The only thing that kept me from giving this the absolute best rating possible are the BLUE LIGHTS on the front of the unit when running. They are VERY bright...so bright that they pretty much act as a night-light. We use this in our bedroom, so it's a little hard to get to sleep with the light. I need to figure out someway to cover the lights. At this time I'm considering getting a small piece of heavy felt to act as a blackout curtain. All in all that's the only bad thing I can say about this product, and that's just me. Some people out there don't might a night-light...I'm just not one of those people.

Don't hesitate at all buying this product. If your allergies or asthma bother you, don't even look at the price."

Works Well Date: November 8, 2009
"I like that you can choose what kind of mist you want and the tank doesn't empty too quickly. Down side is that we keep it on the floor (no other spot) and the mist is not superfine and does tend to dampen the rug in the front. I've solved that by putting a towel in front of it."

Great humidifier Date: November 8, 2009
"I have purchased numerous, expensive humidifiers and have been disappointed with all of them. This humidifier is well worth the price - it is fantastic. It is very effective, low maintenance, and has great features. It is one of the few humidifiers that I have found that let you control the amount of moisture that it puts into the air and has hot and cool air options. I love it and will be purchasing another one."
