Homedics Portable Humidifier - Small Air Humidifiers for Bedroom, Plants, Office, Travel - Cool Mist Humidifiers, Color-Changing Accent Light, 2 Mist Settings, Black

UPDATE: So, it's been a year now and I've used this thing pretty much every night during the winter months. I've noticed a lot of bad ratings saying that it stopped working. If I hadn't read the care directions, I might be saying that too. I think the key to keeping it working is that you have to keep the little mist holes cleared of mineral deposits. A Q tip (or paper towel) and some 50/50 vinegar and water seems to keep the holes clear for me.. I just took this on a 12 hour drive with the heater blasting in 10 degree weather, and this, again kept my eyes and nose from drying out. We all keep ours filled and in our bags around here.I sing, and where we rehearse, the air is so dry in the winter, I start strangling. This is such a life saver. It lasts on intermittent through rehearsal, and then right on through our performance. It's quite effective when set behind me on a stand. I also use it at night plugged in on intermittent and am always pleased to see it still running when I wake up 8 hours later. I love that it doesn't spill. I just throw it into my bag. Best of all, it's absolutely awesome in the car, especially on long trips. I get sinus headaches, and my eyes dry out when the heater is on. I plugged this thing in and it resolved that lifelong issue immediately. Who'da thunk it! Easy to refill too. It could have a better battery life of course. But I've yet to find the perfect little humidifier. This is as close as it gets for me. I'm buying one for the other singer in our group. I can actually afford these on my little budget.

i bought it for my wife. It simple,portable and yet powerful. You will get 3 wicks with it which is very helpful and the mist that comes out of it is good.These are not for bigger rooms or not even smaller rooms. These are for work places or if you are working on desk for longer period of time. I would highly recommend it.

I took delivery of this from Amazon yesterday. Read the instructions, followed to a T. Unit worked great for the 5 hours. Unplugged, emptied and set it aside for the night.Went to use it this morning in my home office. Filled up with distilled water, plugged in, turned on and started working.I quickly noticed something was not right as the unit began hissing and not misting. When hissing, water bubbles up and went all over top of unit and all around the table it is on.There was no dropping by me or any other thing to cause it to not work properly. I emptied the water, used qtip with 50% white vinager to clean, let dry, plug back in and same problem.I called Amazon for help and was offered 15% off to keep the unit I only received less than 24 hours ago and used once. She then said I could return it for credit. I shared how after it performed so well yesterday, I threw out the oem box in my trash which happened to have been picked up at 6:30A this morning so I have no box. She asked if I had a bag to put it in and the stick a return label to it. Advised her all I had was a Walmart shopping bag. She said okay, use that. I was like are you sure?? The thing would rip open and the unit would get lost or damaged in the UPS system.She said those were my 2 options. I asked her to send a replacement and I could then use that box to return this defective unit. She said I only had the 2 previous options to choose from.I’ve been a prime member for many years and spend a lot with Amazon annually. I can’t believe this was the non-support I received on a defective $30 item that is now in the trash as it is no use to me if it does not function properly.I’m sure mine is a one off defective unit. At least I’d like to think so. But the lack of a respectful resolution from Amazon is crazy.I even gave an analogy to the customer service gal asking if she would be happy if she bought a new tire for her car that had a slice in it and where she bought it from offered her 15% off to just keep it. She did not answer but the obvious answer if no.When you buy something and it malfunctions within 24 hours of receiving it, one would hope for a positive resolution.Not in this case…

I tried multiple different brand, but this is the best portable humidifier yet. It is easy to carry without leaks, just like my water bottle. It says that the charged humidifier goes about 3 hours, but it does not stay that long.
