Product Reviews of Sunbeam Health at Home 1.2 Gallon Steam Vaporizer, White/Burgundy
Product Review: We had this for a while
Summary: 3 Stars
This is not bad for a cheap humidifier. However:- Lots of water on/around the tank after a couple of hours (have to put it on a mat or a pile of towels)
- stopped working after about a year
- have to clean the electrodes (it is a *warm* mist humidifier - it boils the water)
All in all, I was happy (got it for twelve bucks last year). The boiling kills a lot of the
bacteria you get from the "ultrasound" humidifiers.
That said, I am in the market for something that will run longer, be less messy, more durable, and
easier to maintain.
Product Review: Works Well When Cleaned Properly
Summary: 3 Stars
Our family has purchased several Sunbeam Vaporizers over the years and have had good luck with these units. The Larger-tank unit is a better deal as it holds more water.The unit produces steam which is why we buy them--steam helps to warm the air as it adds moisture and also kills any organisms in the water. More expensive cool-mist humidifiers do NOT kill bacteria and fungus and their cool mist cools the room temperature.
This unit requires regular cleaning to keep it working well--our water has much calcium so we clean the electrodes after every 2 or 3 uses. Simply scrape the scale from the electrodes and put the unit back in service. As the electrodes wear down, a replacement head unit for the device can be purchased direct from the manufacturer--no need to keep buying the water tank.
Product Review: does the job but hard to clean
Summary: 3 Stars
I had this humidifier for about a year, and it recently stopped running. I took it apart and found that the wires had corroded. I practically had to break the thing to get it open, and you can't get the calcium deposits out of the inside except through this microscopic hole, so I ended up banging it against my kitchen sink every few nights to get it out. It does work--it's warm mist, and it's not too loud. It'll last you one or two nights if you turn it off in the morning. If you can't spend a lot of money, go ahead and get this one because it does the job--better than not having one at all.Product Review: just ok product
Summary: 2 Stars
although it says that it is a cool mist humidifier it is actually a warm mist humidifier but it seems to do its job quite alright.but im not sure it would last very long and would not recommend to anyone.
