Review of Black & Decker BDHF300 Heater Fan

Customer Ratings:

The Black and Decker heater is a pretty good heater at a value price. It's got several different settings depending on the size of the room you want to heat and puts out a lot of heat in a limited area. One nice feature is the temperature indicator. It's also got a Frost Watch setting which will automatically turn the heater on if the temperature drops below 40 degrees. It also has very nice safety features. Including a switch under the heater that is pressed when the heater is sitting upright. If it should tip over, the switch is deactivated and the heater automatically shuts off.

It's a very nice little heater.

I have owned this little workhorse for 7 years. It is safe with grandkids and pets, reliable as the sun, and very effective heating for a small to medium-sized area. Mine is finally giving up the ghost after all these years, and I plan on replacing it with another one just like it.

I work in an office in CT that is all glass. In the winter our central heating system has some trouble keeping up b/c it's very, very cold near the windows and this heater is NOT good. Other space heaters I've had are able to warm the room much quicker and maintain that temperature.

This heater doesn't get very hot. You can touch it when it's set to it's highest setting. I suppose it would be good to keep a storage room above freezing or maybe it'd be good around pets or kids since you couldn't possibly burn yourself on it.

For the price you're going to pay, I say skip this one and keep looking.

Efficiently heats our small 2nd bedroom, but does so at the cost of a fairly loud "click" whenever the thermostat activates/deactivates. The click is loud enough to hear from another bedroom, and tends to wake up our 6 month old baby if he's not in deep sleep. Otherwise, the timer feature and heating power are very good, but you need to be aware of how loud that click is during an otherwise silent night. If they'd fix that annoyance, I'd give this 5 stars.

I have tried a number of supplimental heaters in the geust room of our older home in Seattle and this has been by far the best. It has no problems heating this 140 sq ft room with a large window on the medium power setting. Things I particularly like about this unit are a) Multiple power settings 690W, 780W, 1440W by my meter. Far better than other units which have off and on at ~1500W and therefor should really be the only appliance on a circuit or you risk flipping a breaker or worse. b) Digital Thermostat You can set the unit to within 1 degree of the tempurature you want. Far better than other units I've tried which either have some funky 'temperature' dial or a thermostat in 5 degree increments. Also the thermostat chooses the best power setting (up to the maximum you have set) for a more even heat (less overshooting and undershooting your selected temperature). c) No Fan This means it heats up the room more slowly but it's completely silent. e) Time Programable You can set different temperatures for different times of the day just like most homes now have on their main heating and cooling systems (from personal experience this has saved me 15-20% on heating bills over running at a constant temperature). d) Size It's not too large and reasonably light for this style of heater and will pack away into a small closet when not in use.

On the down side no matter how small they are, oil radiant heaters are ugly and the black color makes it stand out even more. Also it would be nice if it had and handle for lifting it. All in all though I'm very happy.

The DeLonghi EW7507EB is my first radiant heater.

I originally intended to buy the TRD0715T, however when I went to the store to look at it, my wife and I agreed the big red dial for the timer coupled with the weird off white color was simply too gaudy and not condusive to our room's design, not to mention this is 2011 hello? who still uses analog gauges??? I then figured a Digital interface for the heater would certainly make the looks far better. I again did my homework and found this heater (EW7505EB) and the Honeywell version (HWLHZ709). On the Target website, the Honeywell version had 2.5 stars after 51 reviews and many indicated serious issues. That left me with one choice the DeLonghi EW7507EB...

I did find one at Lowe's and noticed it had an additional L at the end of the part number (EW7507EBL) but realized it meant it was for Lowe's version. When I researched this unit on Lowes.com I found that 10 out of 11 gave it 5 out of 5 stars and one person gave it 4 out of 5, as well as no one reporting serious issues, thus I went ahead and bought it. (i got it for 59 bucks)

I have now used it for around a month and I can't be more pleased. It was roughly $10 dollars more than the awful gaudy white version and this one is more energy efficient since it has three temp levels rather than two.

It has a thermostat that is perfect, you can set it to come on and turn off automatically with two different timer profiles. Plus the thermostat is dead on, I put a thermometer in the room I was heating all the way across the room from the heater and the temperature I set was exactly the temperature of the room every time.

It is super quiet, it only makes a click noise when it turns on and off that is hardly noticable.

The heater is not super hot to the touch, it comes with warnings and I would definitly read them (and heed them), but it has not burnt me when I brush against it or touch it for a second or two.

It definitely produces better heat than the ceramic type heaters since it doesn't dry out the air, thus it is a more even constant heat. It also heats pretty quickly, since there are three settings, low, medium, and high, you can choose how fast you want the room to heat up. Additionally in the thermostat mode you can limit it to low and medium or all three to keep the temperature constant.

The last thing that I have only used once is when you leave your house for an extended period of time you can set it for freeze protection. The thermostat turns the heater on when the room reaches 42 degrees to prevent things from freezing. It is convenient to save the money and not have to heat the house when gone.

I love this thing and would definitely buy it again!

Honest reviews on DeLonghi EW7507EB Oil Filled Radiator Heater Black 1500W

I bought this heater about a month ago and have been very pleased with it. I use it in my 18 month old bedroom. This is my second DeLonghi heater, first one was a different model but both have worked great. I would recommend spending the extra money for the digital temp. controller. My other heater doesn't have this feature and its a pain trying to guess what setting to put it on to get the right temp. It does have the comfort zone setting but thats too warm for me while I sleep in my bedroom. The new heater is great, you just set it at any temp. and it holds it there. The only negative I would say about the heater is it does not show you what the actual room temp. is. It's not too hard to figure out though. Just raise the temp up or down until you see the heater kick on then you know that is the room temp. Some other reviews mention a loud click when the heater turns on. Unless you have dog ears you are not going to notice it. Also some reviews talked about a smell. I have never experienced this with either heater I have bought. The instructions do mention putting the heater outside for a burn off period but I never did. Pulled it right out of the box and plugged it in. No smell. Great product!

I didn't get this from Amazon and got it from Lowes. It is the same model with an extra "L" on the model number, which I think stands for Lowes. It is exactly the same thing but 20 dollars cheaper. The unit is quite heavy and I would say about 20 pound. There is no handle of any type so carrying it upstairs could be troublesome. Uses 1600W just like my Plasma TV , so we have to balance our TV time a little to balance the electrical bills. We bought this for our 1 year old son in his room about 12' x 12'. It is so easy to use , except that we didn't try the timer function yet because in reality you don't really need it. You set the temperature and set how fast the unit should heat up to reach the desire temp (45 to 90F) with Lo, Med, and Hi settings. We set it to 70F/Med and just leave it in son's room. Soon we really forgot about it. I mean if my wife can figure this out I am sure everyone else should have no trouble enjoying this heater. I know it doesn't put out as much heat , but this is much safer as I tested it by putting my hands on the unit and it feels like holding my Large Starbucks coffee. You have to trust the unit and let it do its job just like the heating system in your house other than this is for a small room.

This little heater has saved us now through two winters and truly has kept us nice and toasty warm! We have two, one upstairs and one downstairs and they heat the entire area with ease. The front of the unit doesn't get much hotter than a TV digital box or a computer, and our cats can very safely lay in front of it without getting their fur burnt by the coils or grate (since it is plastic). The temperature control is a wonderful feature as well, we end up using this instead of our gas heat in the house (it ends up being cheaper).

The other thing we like is the auto shutoff if it DOES get to hot! That way the heater turns off and doesn't overheat for any reason, reducing the fire risk with some other ceramic heaters.

All in all I would definitely recommend this heater to anyone who needs one!

We have had two of these heaters for roughly 3 years. We mounted ours on the wall in our family room and one in our guest room. We like they are on the wall out of way safe from causing a fire. We love that they keep the room a constant temperature. We keep our house cool at night, but if someone stays in our guest room, they can set the temperature how they want it. Also, we keep one in our family room. We don't have to keep the entire house at 70, we can keep it at 65 or lower if we want, and then set the family room temperature how we want if we are watching a movie or reading. Great product and very very inexpensive to use.

This tea warmer is lovely to look at, and lovely to hold. I am very sensual when it comes to comfort items, especially teas. This little beauty has a wonderfully easy elegant design, and a quality feel to it. The stainless steel plate feels strong, and fits snuggly onto the sturdy glass base. The small raised area keeps the tea light candle nestled in the center of the warmer. The easily removable stainless steel plate makes lighting the candle simple and unintrusive to the tea drinking experience. A+

The Primula Tea Warmer works better than I thought it would. I hope nothing ever hapens to it. After the water boils, I add the flowering tea pod and the warmer does a great job of keeping the tea warm. I have even used it to keep Sake warm. It's a great product that I would recommend. The only problem I had was when the item arrived; the tea candle it came with was completely melted inside so it was unusable and I had to clean out the melted wax because it was stuck to the glass. Had this not happened, it would get 5 stars.

Honest reviews on Primula Tea Warmer 2-Piece Glass and Stainless Steel with Tea Light

I ordered this tea warmer to used with an old Bodum Bistro glass tea pot, which is cylindrical in form and measures 5-1/4" in diameter across the bottom. This tea warmer, according to the amazon.com listing, is supposed to be 4 x 6.8 x 6.5 inches. Since it's obviously wider than it is all, one would assume it's 4" tall, 6.8" in diameter on the outside and 6.5" in diameter as to the recess in the stainless steel top, so my Bodum teapot should have fit just fine. But those dimensions are just plain wrong. The tea warmer arrived and it's actually only 5" in diameter, so my teapot doesn't fit into the recess in the top of the warmer -it's slightly too large. My teapot doesn't fit securely and isn't safe to use with this warmer. So I'm not criticizing the heating performance of the warmer or its construction. My complaint is that amazon.com gives the wrong dimensions in its listing of the product. For most teapots, it probably will work because the base of most teapots is smaller than 5" in diameter. But it won't work for mine, so I'm going to have to return it, which is annoying.

This tea warmer is very nice looking but the metal plate didn't fit properly. Because of this the teapot couldn't sit straight on top of the warmer. When I tried adjusting the plate, the glass warmer shattered in my hands. Not happy.

Discount Comfort Zone® Deluxe convertible heater/fan CZ30

Customer Ratings:

I bought one of these heaters cheap from a local supermarket and was not expecting much for the price, but I was pleasantly surprised when I got it home and found that it was very quiet, in fact it's the quietest of any portable heater I own, and I have about 7 different types, including ceramic heater and standard fan driven ones like this one.

This heater has a nice design to it that allows it to stand upright or lie flat. The handle serves as a stand to allow air flow from the top and bottom intakes while in the lying flat mode. The fan is not the standard blade type, but it uses a squirrel cage design that makes it much quieter and even stronger than the standard fan blade heaters.

What also surprised me about this heater is that it cranks out more heat on LOW than any other heater I have on HIGH. Even on low if you keep your hand right a few inches from the grille, it will almost get too hot to keep your hand there for long, and that's on low. But it actually seems to draw less than other heaters on high. I've not hooked it up to an AMP meter or anything to really get accurate reading, but judging from the fact that other heater dim the lights more on high than this one does on low, I would say that it is drawing the rated 750 watts but somehow putting out a lot more heat. Maybe it's the design, the squirrel cage type fan over standard blades or something else. I'm not really sure, but all I know is that this thing can heat up a good size room in about 10-15 minutes and almost make you start to sweat where as other heaters have to be kept on high for 30 minutes or hours to even try to do the same job.

I went back to the store and I bought 4 more of these heaters I liked it so much. It's the best portable heater I've found yet and as mentioned, I've tried numerous different types. My only issue with it is that the thermostat on certain ones does tend to stay on a long time which can make the room get too hot. They all work, but some will stay on for 30 minutes or more before shutting off...then it won't come back on until the room has gotten quite cold. It's not a digital thermostat but seems to be a more basic type that activates when the metal alloy drops to a certain temperature, warps and closes the circuit turning the heater back on, so of course it's not going to be as accurate or consistent.

But again I've had other heaters with different and supposedly better thermostats do the same thing. So in this price range it's still the best one that I have found, especially considering that I got all of mine for under $9 each at my local store on sale, so I surely can't complain. I'm actually hoping that they get another supply in this year as I want to pick up a couple more as backup, but I used them every day for hours last winter and It was might cold here in the northeast last year and none of them failed at all. I have one on right now as I write this review and it's making me very warm so I'm about to turn it off.

The heater sounded good enough online. It's hard to find a squirrel cage fan forced heater these days. The advantage is that they are very quiet.

I sent this back the next day first of all the quality was cheap. Secondly, I never even got to test it since it was crushed and in multiple pieces.

The outer shipping box was in perfect condition but the product box inside was crushed as well as the heater. It all leads me to believe that the product was damaged before it was packed for shipping.

Amazon was great about the return and issued a prompt refund.

Best EdgeStar 14,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner & Heater Deals

Customer Ratings:

This is a general overview of the Edgestar 14000 BTU dual hose air conditioner.

Buying experience: Average

Product was slow to be delivered, approximately two weeks from the time I placed the order until I actually received the item. Buyer's need to keep in mind that this product is not sold by Amazon. It is some external site that sells via amazon. Most buyers will not face any complications but it is important to know that dealing with some little dotcom is very different than dealing with Amazon in terms of service, quality of product, and returns.

Design: Below average

Product itself is extremely bulky in girth and tall in profile. The "portable" tag is rather misleading. Yes, anything is portable but due to the weight and size of this unit, it is not very portable at all. While it looks very slim in the pictures, it has a large rear section where the dual hose is located. The control panel on the unit is also not very touch sensitive and the power button became non-responsive after a few uses.

Product use: Poor to Unacceptable

It is also very unlikely that this product is a 14000 BTU air conditioner. It cannot, I repeat, cannot cool a space larger than 500 sq feet. It has been used in a wide range of temperatures (72-95F) and completely fails to lower the room temperature by more than 5F. I would estimate that it can cool a space that that is at most 200 square feet. Also note that the unit is very prone to condensation and leaks. Puddles form around the unit on high humidity days. Be careful when using on hardwood floors. It is a disaster waiting to happen. Window kit also had a nice big crack around the hose connection area.

Manufacturer/Tech support: Below Average

As mentioned previously, when dealing with an external seller, it can range from annoyance to frustration. First tried the seller for help and as expected was referred to the manufacturer as "this unit should be covered by the warranty". Manufacturer was must have all of one employee working for them. Impossible to get a live person and even then it was the standard read from a script response.

In summary, this is a dismal product with even worse support. It would be best to avoid this brand and seller. I would not recommend this air conditioner even on a sweltering summer afternoon.

Manufacturer said its not designed to work where the ambient temperature is over 90 degrees. REALLY?? Why would you spend that kind of money to air condition an already cool place? I will never buy from Compact Appliance again and I will tell this story to anyone who will listen.

I bought one portable air conditioner and heater from Sonic value company for father's day gift.and i got damage item. and i confirm and recorded everything before i ordered this item that it is gonna be a new item and not any kind of damage. and the after i got this kind of item.So, i called them and explained everything.and every time they were giving excuses and not giving good customer service.and they were telling me to send pictures about damage, about label, more clear pictures,box pictures.and i did every time. then after they did n't do anything. So, i asked to my money back and one day the company vice president send me E-mail and say you are wasting my and my staff time and bla bla bla...

So i sent below reply.

First of all I have not received the email you are talking about. You

you guys were calling me when you wanted our business. And this is not

the way to respond to the customers. I am very offended by your

response, ,which was awfully rude. I will never shop with your company

in the future.

Secondly, If you feel like we are wasting your time then I will send

back the item as soon as possible. We will never do business in the

future and I will make sure that other customers are aware of the

service you guys are giving. And may be you should re-think about

being in business if customer issues are waste of time for you. I

feel like I am wasting MY time by going through all this with you, it

should be other way around. I will take this to consumer affairs. I

don't want to deal with the company who does not know the customer

value and respect.

Thirdly, talking about language, Obviously you guys don't speak

language that customers speaks.

So, Please don't buy anything from this company because this company does not know how to deal with customers and how to make customers happy.and if you need more head ache in your life then i will advice you to go with this company.

Don't buy this money pit!!! Big waste of $730 (original purchase plus repair costs!!!)

On the day after the one-year warranty ended, it stopped running. The manufacturer was rude & very difficult to work with and as a "favor" sent the replacement part at no charge. The part that failed had been redesigned because a tendency to fracture under heat stress. I opened up the back and realized that the job was way beyond my own diy skills. I shelled my own $130 for the repairman, who was very hard to find. He kindly informed me the secret is most AC techs are not qualified to work on mini-duct ac's, which is technically what this unit is.

One year later, the electronics have failed, and having moved to New England, there is NO-ONE who does mini-duct AC work. Still need an AC, though, to keep the creepy basement dried out and the mold at bay...

Discount KF Baby Clip-On Mini Stroller Fan, Yellow

Customer Ratings:

I bought this fan to attach to our BOB stroller for our 7 month old daughter who gets very fussy in the warm weather. I had read reviews about it being cheap/low quality but we really like it so far. First, you can't beat the price. I will agree that the foam blades could very easily be torn off by my daughter who is fascinated by them, but the alternative (plastic or metal blades) would probably not be a great solution either, for obvious reasons. The fan produces a pretty good breeze which keeps my daughter cool and therefore less fussy on warm days. We initially had the fan closer too her and she put her fingers in the way of the blades while it was going. This entertained her for a while but then she started grabbing at them so we moved it further down so she wouldn't tear them off (easy solution to the other reviews about how cheap the blades are). Overall, the cost is great, it produces a great breeze and it can attach almost anywhere. You can't go wrong, I'd highly recommend it!

We were looking for a small heater for our RV to take the chill off without having to run our furnace. This is a perfect little heater for us! It is small. Doesn't have a metal grate or any exterior metal parts that get hot. It is quiet! The heating elements never get hot enough to glow red. The "smart" thermostat controls the level of heat produced by the element and the speed of the fan. This little guy can put out up to 5,120 BTU at 1,500 watts. It has tip-over protection and a double level of overheat protection. We have a little RV dog and these features make it a very safe heater to have in our RV and we felt good about it being made in Canada! We can't yet comment on durability at this time.

Wow. What a piece of junk. Now I know never to trust a handful of 'glowing' reviews. Dreadful purchase, this is going straight back to Amazon.

First of all, the packaging was awful (shipped by Amazon, who are usually much better), the retail box had been taped all around and shipped without double boxing, and with UPS's handling, didn't arrive in very good shape. I immediately began to wonder if someone had already returned this item before me, and that wouldn't surprise me. They most likely took it out of the box, plugged it in, realized what an overpriced piece of absolute junk this is, put it right back in the box and returned it immediately too, just as I am about to.

It is small, and very lightweight, all plastic. It tips over very easily then does not automatically shut off, probably a terrible fire hazard.

It has a fan which blows air EXTREMELY NOISILY. There is an on/off switch, and one simple dial for "Lo" and Hi", which controls the fan level, but not sure if it also controls the heating coil levels. Those coils, but the way, look like they belong in an old pop-up toaster, and are very flimsy looking. Even at it's lowest setting the fan is very noisy. And at medium, forget it, it's absurdly noisy, and rattly too, making one wonder if they are being "punked", or on "candid camera". Seriously, is this a joke??

When on it smells like dust burning. From the coils, no doubt. I have no idea if that would dissipate over time. I couldn't listen to this thing for more than one minute.

If I had bought this for ten or twenty dollars, USED, at a yard sale, I'd say I got what you paid for, and then donate it to the needy. But for the price this thing cost, no way, it's going back for an exchange for a different kind of heater.

If you work in an extremely noisy shop or garage, where you can barely hear yourself think, and just need to warm your toes with this thing under your desk, then it might be alright, but again, probably only if it cost ten or twenty dollars.

Look elsewhere.

What I especially like is that there is an unheated fan setting that you can use to cool yourself off or just to use as a white noise machine. The heater is not totally quiet, but has a low fan noise that helps mask out unwanted noises. The only problem I have run into (I've had my fan for a year)is that when it's tipped over it stops, which is a good thing! However, it takes about 10-15 min for me to get it going again. If you choose to buy, check out Walmart as they are cheaper there.

I purchased this around November 2012 and it died today while burning it's plug and my wall socket. I will have to replace the wall plugs and return the heater. It was a noisy heater, yes but it did get warm. It was NOT on when it somehow started to burn on half the plug. Thank goodness I smelled burning plastic and unplugged it before any actual fire. I will not buy this brand again if I can help it.

Honest reviews on Pelonis Personal Mini Fan Forced Heater 3 Heat Settings-adjustable

I have not had the problems that Moniker reports in another review. In an effort to keep down heating costs, I've decided to try space heaters this year, and so far, the Pelonis heater has worked perfectly. I've kept it on almost all the time. This does not mean that it's been pouring out heat the entire time. For much of the time, it's been idle, waiting for the temperature to dip low enough to cause the heater to come on. And it's worked perfectly.

I use this heater in a relatively small room--about 120 square feet--with small animals that I don't want exposed to too much cold at night. So far, all is great. I have two minor quibbles, but they are truly minor, at least when compared to the cost (under $20 when I bought it). The first quibble is that the thermostat is not very accurate, and there is no degree setting, meaning that I cannot set the thermostat for 74 degrees or anything like it. I have to set the thermostat by feel. The second quibble is that the fan itself is not all that strong. I've tried to use just the fan in order to test it, and let's put it this way: I don't think I'll be using this heater in the summer to try to keep cool. Still, as a heater for a small room, it's worked perfectly.

One additional note: As I write this, there is one other review, which reports that the fan shuts off if there is too much moisture in the air. I live in a dry climate, so I cannot say one way or the other whether excessive moisture presents a real problem.

This little heater works quite well. The snap on feet made it very easy to install no tools required. The adjustable thermostatic also works well (unlike some others I have tried). It is a simple dial control which made it perfect for my older people. I haven't yet fully tested the high heat setting, but on the low setting, it kept my 10 x 14 foot room quite comfortable. Best part of the heater is that It makes no noise that I have been able to tell, except a very slight click when the heater turns on at the thermostat setting.

I had previously given this heater a great review. however, it worked great for two months, then the on/off switch broke. woke up in the middle of the night, freezing. even when I managed to turn it on, it would switch off.

I had bought the heater directly from the company website. the company refused to pay for shipping me a replacement. then they wanted me to pay the shipping back to them if they gave me a refund. after a few phone calls and the supervisor not bothering to give me a requested call back, I got them to send me a label for sending the unit back. and they gave me a refund.

so, the heater gets one star and the company gets one star. its unfortunate, but, they didn't care that the unit broke after only two months. so, will never use the company again.

The heater is simple and easy to use. But I had to return it because of the smell it makes in just about 5 minutes of turning it on. I had it running for about an hour and the smell gets worse. So I've decided to quickly pack it up again and return.

Reddy Convection Heater, LP #TC101 Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Awesome little heater. Make sure you follow the directions and use a wrench to tighten the fittings. I did not the first time and caught the whole thing on fire. Other than that it heated up an oversized 2 car garage in about 20 minutes to warmer than the rest of the house. I used it to heat an area about 300 ft2 in an non-insulated outdoor tent and it worked well too. Just do not leave it unattended while it is on. The propane lasts along time and it was not noisy.

I bought two LP heaters. Both were as simple to operate and as safe as your typical gas grill. Both perform adequately on your standard gas grill LP tank. They do not use electricity which is an advantage during a power outage.

Vicks V4500 FilterFree Humidifier Reviews

Customer Ratings:

OK, I have had this humidifier for about two months now. Make sure you are aware of the requirements of a filter-free humidifier before you buy one. First of all, I couldn't stand having a filtered humidifier. Constantly having to buy filters, they'd be out of stock at Target, unavailable for my brand at the supermarket, just too annoying, and honestly, they're several bucks every time. Why can't I just clean my own humidifier?

So here's the thing. If you opt to go filter free, read the documentation. I think a lot of the negative reviewers here aren't following the instructions... you have to clean your humidifier ONCE A WEEK. Some people are reporting, 'I have had my humidifier for a month and it's starting to stink.' Well, have you cleaned it four times since you've had it?

And yes, I would say, it's a bit of stretch to call this whisper quiet. Like any device running while you're trying to sleep, you're going to hear it. And when you're lying down trying to fall asleep, anything can sound like a freight train. But yes, I would not call this whisper quiet. It's just as loud as any other humidifier I've experienced. Being someone who likes to sleep in pitch dark, though, I'd say the very bright on-light is more annoying than the sound. I find the whisping whirr of it quite calming.

And the bottom line here is, I've slept wonderfully since I bought it. I wake up and find that I've been breathing through my nose instead of mouth-breathing like I had been. Because my sinuses are staying open and moistened.

So there you have it. If you want to go filter-free, you're taking on the task of cleaning it. Three quick release screws, soaking the base and intake tube in white vinegar, rinsing, putting it back together.

For me this has worked perfectly for months now, keeping the air in the room with my guitar at just the right humidity. I bought mine elsewhere but have had others and this one works just fine if you know what you are doing and take precautions. Not for every one, but for most, the red / orange is not mold but iron in your water. For most but not all, the white powder is lime in your water. This is a fact of life for many areas of the country and why people use water filters and water softeners. If you are in a problem area, use a Brita pitcher to filter the water you fill it with. I have tried it with our softened water with no problems but we recently got rid of the softener and will soon be switching to truly filtered water for the entire house. Until then I use a filtered water pitcher. All humidifiers have this problem. Even Consumers gave none more then an average rating for this problem. Baking soda, light bleach mixture, special cleaner, or just let it completely dry out once in a while and you, as I am, will probably be happy with the unit. Mine is still running clear and clean. For the money, this one ca't be beaten.

I would recommended this humidifier. It is pretty quiet, and I have it running all night to humidify the air. I can put the tray in the dishwasher to clean. No filter needed. I am not sure what the negative opinions that I read other readers write are all about. It is not been my experience. Yes, you need to clean it. But you have to clean all humidifiers. This one is easier than others though. It got a great report from Consumers Report, and that has been my experience as well.

Honest reviews on Vicks V4500 FilterFree Humidifier

As so many others have stated, this product is a complete waste of money, and, I believe, a health hazard. If I could give it "0" stars I would. Despite my best efforts to use filtered water, a ProTec cartridge, and disinfect all reachable parts on a weekly basis with vinegar and/or bleach, mold has grown in the motor housing that is impossible to reach in order to properly sanitize this product. After contacting Kaz, I was told the same thing as so many others (I was hoping maybe they had changed their policy), that I would have to send the item back on my own dime, just to receive the same piece of junk as a replacement. Then, once I received the new one, I should "empty all the water from the tank and base (daily). Then run the unit without any water in it for at least 1 hour to dry the fan housing. If you do not want to run the unit without any water I would just remove the fan housing and unscrew the bottom cover and lay the fan housing on its side so it can air dry." Yeah, like I have the time to do that every day with two small children and one on the way. So this humidifier will probably end up in the trash, a waste of $45 + tax.

FYI, in the last couple of weeks I have purchased a Crane humidifier which doesn't require a filter either (unless you have hard water), for less money, and so far I haven't had any issues with it. It does its job perfectly! From now on, I will not be purchasing any more Vicks/Kaz products due to their complete lack of concern that they have sold a health hazard and aren't taking any responsibility to rectify the situation.

I've had this unit for five months and dropped the Protect cartridge in there every month on the 12th to keep it clean. Despite these efforts, it has developed a pink film along with black mold that you can smell when it operates. I'm having trouble breathing. The area that is affected is IMPOSSIBLE to get to in order to clean it even with pressurized air. My unit has also flooded on two occassions destroying everything on my dresser.

I contacted Kaz who makes the unit. They said they would replace it but I'd be out of a unit for 6-8 weeks and I'd have to pay shipping costs. They will not replace it with another unit so I'm sure the same problem will reoccur. I decided to clean the unit the best that I can (this took 2 hours) and use liquid bacteriostatic water treatment instead of the worthless Protect cartridges. I hope this works.
