Title: Small Tank, High Maintenance
Product review: After reading all the great reviews on this unit, I thought I'd found a winner. I was wrong.My first impression when I opened the box was, "wow, that's a lot smaller than I expected." It does a decent job of humidifying the air, but on the high setting (which you'll want to use for a normal to large room) it gulps water at a pretty fast pace. I found myself needing to refill it every few hours. Plus, this is definitely not a low maintenance item. Expect to thoroughly clean it once a week, and ideally, a wipe down more often than that.I also use a $17 Vicks unit from a local big box store and like it a lot better. Lower maintenance, longer time between fills.I sent this unit back, even though I had to pay shipping both ways and a 15% restocking fee.Don't waste your time on this one.
