Vicks Warm Steam Vaporizer, Small to Medium Rooms, 1.5 Gallon Tank – Warm Mist Humidifier for Baby and Kids Rooms with Night Light, Works with Vicks VapoPads and VapoSteam

Great product
Bought this as a resale and couldn’t be happier! This is great for money and value. I looked for this brand because I had one of these models when I was a kid and remember my grandma always used this specific brand stating they last. The steam comes out forcefully and strong so far but the unit seems to get very hot to the touch so be careful if you have young or older people. It has been easy to watch, clean and fill. The design is great for all of that and to keep it from leaking. You should only have to fill once a day if you’re using a smaller space like a bedroom or dorm.. I would recommend using this it functions better than most of the other ones I have seen.

The classic, simple, just-works hot steam humidifier like you had as a kid.
I love these old Vick’s humidifiers. They are crazy simple and they just work – no fancy knobs, buttons, readouts or anything. I wanted a humidifier in our bedroom this winter for a stretch of very cold and dry weather and it fit the bill without costing a lot of money.As stated in some other reviews, my water required a little added table salt to get the steam going but only the first night – subsequent fill-ups did not require any salt.Also – we don’t have mineral heavy water here so I did not get any of the spotting or mineral dust that some others complained about after using the unit.The only detractors for me (and what cost a star) are that 1) there is no on/off switch – you power it off and on by plugging and unplugging it. This is somewhat annoying but also put undue wear on the receptacle connectors. 2) the top could be easier to grip and lift out for refilling.. several times it slipped out of my grip while trying to align the little locking tabs in order to get the top out of the lower tub. Then, once you do have the top off, you have to watch the dripping from the wet unit. It’s not hard to pull it out and hold it over the hole while refilling with a pitcher but it takes some patience and coordination (not something you want to deal with if you’re sick).Otherwise, I’ve never had a humidifier that was 100% convenient to fill so it’s par for the course.I’ll definitely buy another one of these things when I need one.

Its…ok. for 17$. A lot to be desired. Dirty……pics att.
It’s not super expensive. My only gripe is that it was the impression that it is an evaporative humidifier. This one gets really dirty fast, like algae is in the water everything I clean it. Kinda gross. Something this dirty I would expect of an ultrasonic humidifier, which I was trying to avoid. It also only has one speed, which seems to be dependant on the ammount of water in the reservoir. That kinda sucks. It also doesn’t completely empty, it’ll go till an inch and then stops or is so little it’s un noticeable.

Este producto lo compré para que mi bb no tuviera resecas las mucosidades durante la noche. Es muy funcional, junta bastante vapor y no gasta mucha energía. Algunas veces hay que ponerle un poco de sal para que produzca cantidad suficiente de vapor. Además, puedes ponerle tabletas vic para que deje un olor a menta. Al producto se le junta una especie de salitre, que de vez en cuando hay que retirar, pero no es complicado.

数年前から愛用しています。今回、古い個体からの交換のため、購入です。フィルターを使わないので、決して雑菌臭で臭くなりません。メンテナンスは月1回程度、電極棒にこびりついた結晶をこそぎ落としています。水中には炭素の化合物が少しずつ排出されますので、黒く目立つようになったら水を入れ替える際に、捨てます。唯一の難点は、電極が炭素棒のためか徐々に消耗していき、最後になると通電補助剤として入れる塩化ナトリウムが電気分解されて、若干の塩素が発生することです。気分が悪くなるほどではありませんが、屋内型の温水プールの香りがしてきます。こうなると、新品に交換です。当方では、晩秋から春先までほぼ24H連続運転で、3年経って塩素臭がしてきました。電極棒だけ交換できればいいのに、少し勿体ない感じです。小さいサイズのものもありますが、こちらの1.5ガロンの方だと、20畳程度は余裕で加湿してくれます。<追記>3シーズン使った古い個体は、丹念に電極棒の付着物を削ぎ落としたところ、塩素臭は全くなくなりました。予備機として活用します。

加湿力が高く手入れが楽なこの加湿器が一番です。浮気しても戻ります。スチーム量は塩で調節。電気代を気になる人にはおすすめできませんが、加湿力は間違いありません。前の同機種と違って水位が下がるとスチーム量が少なくなるような。。。商品のタンク部分が白ではなく黄色っぽい。劣化かと思いましたがリサイクルプラスティックでした。
