Negative Positive
Title: Short life span
Review: These refills are ridiculous. Yes, they are simple to use, but the maximum life span is about two weeks. I've gone through at least 6 sets of refills this winter season already, and the results are consistent. I run the Vornado humidifier 24/7, as recommended by the manufacturer and clean it regularly, especially when changing out the wicks. There is never any gunky build-up to blame the short life-span on. These are clearly manufactured to last only two weeks. My ancient Duracraft, which is no longer manufactured, but is the best humidifier I've ever had, easily goes 4 to 6 weeks between wick filter changes, with no deterioration in performance. This will be the last year I use the Vornado...for next year I'll be purchasing a second Air-o-Swiss, which runs like a dream, but is quite pricey up front.
