    A gentle mist in the air to sooth the sinuses during the dry winter air. So far the humidifier is working well. We have not tried to use any of the scented oils yet but looking forward to doing so. Running over night from about 11pm to 6am on low the tank starting full will last two days. We try to be vigil to make sure that the tank never runs dry so we haven't tested the auto shut off. So far we are pleased.

    It works decently. What I like most about it is the essential oil cup. I can used aromatherapy when a loved one is sick along with the humidifier in one appliance instead of two.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Warm humidifier is not helpful, in fact it make things worse. It heats up the room even more which make my nose and throat more dry. Use only in cold environments, otherwise use cool humidifier.

    I am very impressed with this humidifier. I went to several different retailers sites to find the one I thought best suited my needs. I use this model in my bedroom. I wouldn't try using it in a larger area. Adding some essential oil in the receptacle adds a nice scent to the room. The automatic shut-off is a nice feature, especially if you keep it on the Highest setting. I usually keep it on High for about an hour before I go to sleep. The steam is great if your room is mostly dry air. Excellent product at this price point.

    Functions, but leaks.

    I’m a long time user of this style of humidifier (warm mist). So I have some ability to compare. For some reason, in this newer design there are holes in the bottom of external base that will allow water to leak out of the unit when/if the internal fill tray overflows. And because that’s likely to happen, you likely will have leaks. So position it and use it accordingly. The only thing I can say is that every competing current warm mist product probably is made in the same place and has the same design problem. As regards the refill light problem? I haven’t experienced that with this unit. But I do know from previous experience that you have to “burp” the fill tank after you install it (at first use and after it runs dry) to ensure that the fill tray is full in order to not have that problem.

    This is a nice compact size humidifier. I only started using it recently, however, there are several nice features including; auto shut off, low water indicator and different mist levels. The fact that you can also add essential oils to this is a plus as well. I am not sure how much square footage this unit provides humidity to but I am hoping it will help this winter in my apartment.
