All in all, I like this humidifier. It is quiet and puts a lot of moisture in the air. During the winter months, I would always wake up with dry mouth, but once I bought this, that stopped. However, it is very awkward to fill. It holds 3 gallons, which makes it heavy to hold under the faucet. The top comes to a point, so you can't put it down in the sink to fill. Once filled, you have to try to balance it on the point so that you can screw the lid on. Then when you put it right side up to take to the base, you can be sure of alot of dripping along the way. It would be so much better if you could fill it from the top.

I purchased this humidifier last winter and was very disappointed. It basically lasted the one winter and was quite noisy. Also, the warranty wasn't worth the paper it was written on.

This is by far the best humidifier I've ever purchased - I'm surprised it's gotten so many bad reviews. It puts a whole heckuva lot of moisture into the air - you can really feel the difference in the room. We live in an extremely dry apartment, so I really needed something that worked well. It also never never leaks - a problem I've had with many humidifiers. We have it sitting directly on a piece of wooden furniture with no harm done. I don't find the tank design particularly cumbersome. Perhaps it isn't the BEST design, but I've never come even close to dropping it and I have no problem getting it to balance sufficiently as I fill it. The filters need replacing somewhat frequently, but so have the filters for all other machines I've used - this one is no worse. The only complaint I think is valid is that it IS a little loud on the high setting. I prefer this, myself, as I like white noise while I sleep. Also, the breeze from it is pretty cool, which I also like. If you don't like the breeze, it should be easy to aim away from you.
