Product Reviews of Vicks 1.0 Gallon Cool Mist Humidifier
Product Review: Good overall humidifier!
Summary: 4 Stars
I did a lot of research on different humidifiers before ultimately choosing this one. I previously had an ultrasonic humidifier which was great because it didn't have a wick filter to deal with. However, it made the floor totally wet from the mist. So I opted for a wick filter based humidifier. For the money, this humidifier works quite well. The shape of the water reservoir makes it easy to fit inside my bathroom sink for refills. One word of caution is to make sure you properly replace the reservoir onto the unit. If it doesn't seat the correct way, you will ultimately have a very wet floor. I've had this unit for about 3 months now and am to the point where I need to replace the filter. Has a removable tray that you can put in the dishwasher. I've read some reviews about some people not being happy with the sound it makes. I keep mine on the low speed, which creates nice white noise when sleeping. The high speed does generate quite a bit of noise for those wanting to really drown out their surroundings. Overall, I'm quite happy with my purchase. Product Review: Satisfied!

Great product. No complaints. It's quiet enough on the low setting. Would probably be too loud on high setting. Easy to clean (no small pieces that you have to soak). I would recommend!Product Review: Great for price

Works well, and made an immediately noticeable difference in the dry throat/mouth/lips problem I was waking up to everyday before it!Product Review: I hate this product
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this for my son's room, and while it functions fine, it's a total pain to move around - every time I lift it to take it and empty it out/clean it (which you should do daily), it spills everywhere - it's like there is no way to move it without it doing so unless it's empty!
It's incredibly annoying.
Product Review: Expensive to Maintain

I purchased this humidifier one year ago for $40 at Target, and I have spent almost $100 in replacement filters. You have to replace the filter at least once a month, and they aren't cheap. I could have just bought a machine without a filter, and probably spent the same amount of money as I have in replacement filters!
I will give this machine credit, though; it is quiet and we use it at least 12-15 hours per day while my daughter sleeps. It doesn't need to be refilled as often as most, and it's compact so it fits nicely in small places.
