Re: Please recommend your Cool Mist humidifier that you have in your child's room.

I put this up on the other thread too:

I actually have a Hunter model from Lowe's. I was so sick of th Vicks one I had from BRU that had the floor and room soaked by the morning. Then I was sick of the other one that made the room full of a white film. So we got a good one from Lowe's. It has a nightlight, you don't have to replace the filter, it's anti-microbial, has 3 mist settings and its very quiet! These were all important since we have to run it basically every night. I'm finally happy.

Sorry..I have the Vicks one and I don't recommend it. I have a thing about mold...and they get moldy so quickly not matter how much you wash it out.

We have the Crane one but in cow form. It works well and haven't had a problem with it. We've only had it for 3 weeks so knock on wood.

I bought the American Red Cross humidifier and I don't like it. There is no mist and DD still wakes up with a stuffy nose.

I'm looking for a new one.

I have this one too, and like it. I have a question for the above poster though -- how do you clean the basin that holds the water? I find mine gets a little slimy and I would love to be able to get it really clean.

Vicks...I haven't had the same problems as everyone else...filter does need to be changed, but not that often.

OOOH thanks for the info!!

I have gone through THREE Vick's in the past year Chat Icon Chat Icon One completely soaked the floor and ruined the rug in DD's room. It was a nightmare.

I'm on my 3rd Vick's right now and we'll see how this one goes Chat Icon
