Product Reviews of Kaz PersonalMist Ultrasonic Humidifier
Product Review: Developed mold and stopped working in 6 months
Summary: 1 Stars
We liked the size and ultrasonic mechanism of this humidifier. Unfortunately, it stopped working after 6 months of nightly use. I would choose another brand and forgo the hassle.Product Review: Disappointed!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
We returned this item twice.
First the unit did not work. The second time, it did not generate any mist. We were pleased about how Amazon timely credited out account, however.
Product Review: Efficient and quiet, good output rate for low cost
Summary: 5 Stars
The humidifier is small, efficient and very quiet. The more expensive humidifiers such as by AOS have filters built in, but then there is the cost of those filter replacements. I can buy 5 of these for 1 of AOS. I recommend using filtered water to avoid white dust and cleaning problems. The cleaning is very easy too, just take a paper towel and clean the metal part, which is a small disk size of a dime.
The humidifier has good output rate. The water tank should have been larger as that could have matched the high output this humidifier has. Currently the tank empties within 10 - 12 hours. I would have preferred a tank that I need to fill only once a day.
Note that will all ultrasonic humidifiers, the humidifier needs to be placed on a height because if the mist comes in contact with a surface too soon, it does not have time to evaporate and will cause the surface to become wet. If you plan to keep this on the floor, then get a humidifier with a fan that will blow the air, but then it will be loud and consumes much more power. I keep it on my kitchen Island edge, pointing away from island and height is about 2.5 feet. At that height, there is no wet surface and the mist evaporates before reaching the floor.
In general, I strongly recommend this.
Product Review: Excellent humidifer for 600sq feet with no mold or white dust
Summary: 5 Stars
I read so many reviews on humidifiers I lost track of who liked/did not like what and why. I think it boils down to what you are planning to do with the humidifer you choose. This is the perfect humidifier if:
1. Area to be humidified is 600 sq feet or less
2. You have hard water and mold and limescale is a problem with filters (this one uses no filters. I am not using distilled water and have ahd no trouble so far with white dust or lime scale
3. You want to put it in a bedroon and sleep with it on (but, if you are looking for background "white noise" for a baby's room, this one is so soft you can't hear it at all all. The older one I had was too loud for me to clearly hear using the baby monitor. On the flip side, I now can't use this one for "white noise" during nap time)
4. You have pets and children that could get burned with a warm mist/ hot water type of humidifier
5. You want to put it on a small nightstand (I was at first worried the floor would get wet or it would leak, but nothing got wet and nothing leaked. The top of the nightstanf is 3 feet from the floor)
6. You want to be able to easily fill it using the bathroom or kitchen sink.
7. You only want to have to fill it once a day/night. It says it lasts 12 hours, but on low it will actually last closer to 16 hours.
The only "con" that I can think of, but truly a minor problem, is that you have to unplug it to carry it to the sink to empty out any water still in the base when you are done using it for the night. But, if you are a musician that needs it constantly on, then this would not be a problem.
For the price I paid I am very happy with it.
Product Review: Excellent! No filters needed!
Summary: 5 Stars
Great product! Can see the cool mist. Extremely quiet. You woudn't even know it's there unless you see the mist. As soon as we plugged it in and selected the setting it started puffing out steam in an instant. The best part is that I won't be spending so much money on replacement filters! Bought this on sale for $20 and I am very happy with it. It was the only humidifier that didn't require filters and though I had not heard of KAZ brand, I noticed that VICKS humidifiers were made by KAZ as indicated on the VICKS packaging. And yes it is best suited for a single bedroom size but with so much steam being puffed I should think it would be effective even in a larger space.
