The fan and humidity controls are simple. I also purchased a "Hygrometer" to keep track of humidity levels. The 3 gallon container usually last thru the night depending on how often the furnace runs. It's well worth the price, no more sore throats or dried out nasal passage. Make sure to set the unit on a table or chair to eliminate wet carpet or slippery floors.

Living in Colorado inside humidity is a major problem in the winter time, I have used numerous humidifiers over the past 10 years and usually expect to get 2-3 years of use out of them. The Honeywell QuietCare UV Tower lasted about 3 weeks in our house before being returned. We had this unit running in our family/great room area which is about 800sqft.
Quiet is a flat out lie, it is very loud. On the lowest fan setting you can hear it running throughout a 2500sqft house.
Filters need to be replaced every 4 weeks or less because of poor design where the fan doesn't shut off and dries out the filter until it is so brittle that it cracks apart. We have used other Honeywell products in the past and typically get a full winter season out of a filter.
Does not shut off automatically when it runs out of water, fan will just keep running; wasting power, making noise. and blowing cold (low-ground height) air which makes the entire room feel cold.
Water tank design is bad, it is very awkward to refill the tank and install it back in the tower. The mouth of the tank sits on the side of the filter where the filter is unnaturally bent to fit. This causes the mouth of the tank to hit the filter (see brittle comment) which effectively breaks the filter when it is dry.

We bought this humidifier for our 1000 sq. foot first floor. It does not take up much space, and keeps the house comfortable. The down side is that it is a little noisy, espcially shortly after refil when it makes a funny gurgling sound. It does throw of a cold draft that my husband complains about. All in all it was a good buy.

I bought 2 for my house. Upstairs and downstairs. On high the fan is a little loud, but they work great. I have to fill them about once a day. Only bad thing is it will not tell you when out of water. It just keeps going.

For the low cost, this is a very good humidifier. Easy to maintain/refill, humidifies very well. The only issue is the fan is a little loud on the highest speed.

Quiet on low and medium speeds with high speed being "not bad". Works well, empties the reservoir in a single day (when cold outside).
My only issues are the following (not big deals):
The reservoir is a little funky to replace (when refilling), you have to angle it in around the wick.
Whenever you replace the reservoir (or the kids run by) the power shuts off and the controls reset to high fan speed, UVC light on and humidity setpoint turned off (ie. run forever).

Got this because our existing humidifier couldn't put out enough moisture in the winter months. This unit does a very good job at dispensing water into the air quickly, but the one downside is that even on low setting, it is LOUD. If you don't mind that, get it!

Does More Than You Would Think

Bought this unit to try and raise the humidity level in my house during the dry winter months. This is a room humidifier, but it really boosted the humidity levels in my entire 1700 square foot house. The unit is quiet and clean - it does not require the same level of maintenance that you often have with humidifiers. Uses a wick/filter system that helps to clean the air, but will also catch all the impuritees in your water. Because of this, I found that a filter ($10) will usually not last more than a month - sometime less. Overall a good product that does more than you'd think.

Best cool mist option

This is the second version I have had of this model, and it works well for what we need (mostly keep the humidity up for an asthmatic daughter). The up-side is the size of the tank, as one gallon models don't do the trick for us. The downside is the noise - it isn't too bad, but you can hear the blower running when it is on. That isn't a problem for us, but if you are looking for the mere bubbling and percolating of a hot-mist humidifier, you will be disappointed.

This is my second Honeywell humidifier and I have been happy with the product. The first one lasted about 3 1/2 years and probably stopped working due to not changing the filter frequently enough. It will calcify and clog things up.

This is a good product. We use it for part of our house. We need another one as it will only do so many sq ft. and the one will not cover the entire space needed. However, it works well is easy to refill and I like it.

Works great and is sufficient enought to raise the humidity in the bedroom (600sqft) but it's too loud to let it run at night.

I put water in, it spreads it around the room. The large tank is appreciated. I think that model can be used to solve many of our socio-economic issues that we have in urban areas, or maybe not.

The unit was easy to unpackage and setup. Works well and has variable speeds, the lower settings are fairly quiet, but the higher settings are a little noisy for maximum air flow.

Really helped my sinus issues. CONS: Does make a lot of noise on the highest setting. Design is a little strange, as it blows out at floor level. All in all, it does a good job.

It's does a good job of humidify in a large room. Fan is noisy and it doesn't seem to have much logic as to when it shuts down.

I've had this for 3 months now and have noticed a subtle difference in our quality of air. It is not as dramatic as I had hoped but it works. I recommend buying replacement filters right away because they start to turn yellow pretty quick. Usually one tank will last one full day or one overnight. Refilling it is as simple as taking it out and filling the tank with water. It doesn't get too heavy when you refill it.
