Product Reviews of Vicks Nursery 1 Gallon Vaporizer with Night-Light
Product Review: works great but only a few hours
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought two of these...one for the nursery and one for our room. I decided on this one based on several reviews that it would last about 8 hours before needing a refill. For us, that's not even close to what we're getting. It needs to be refilled in about 3 hours for us. Bummer. So I'm back to shopping for something with a bigger capacity. I just want one that lasts through a night of sleeping.Product Review: works well, for a tiny space
Summary: 3 Stars
product has helped me breath better since I moved it right smack dab next to my bed. good for a small space... good safety switch.Product Review: ~*~*~HAVE A SICK BABY?(please read)~USED IN OUR GIRLS NURSERY OVER A YEAR~STEAMS FAST~LOTS OF STEAM~*~*~
Summary: 5 Stars
My girls are 14 months old and we have been using the same Vicks Vaporizer since my girls were around 2 months old, they both got colds so my husband picked one of these up at our local store.
It started steaming in a few minutes and there was a lot of steam. We had our girls at the Dr and he said it was only a virus so he said we could give them saline nose drops & use a vaporizer. Having a vaporizor really does make a difference when you have a cold and since there is not usually a lot you can do for babies I definately recommend getting one. The 1st night they got sick & we didn't have the vaporizor my girls coughed a lot more but once we had it they coughed a lot less.
Since then my girls have been sick what seems like close to a Billion times. This has been used a ton of times & we've never had a problem with it, always heats up fast & gives lots of steam.
Helpful things we use when our girls are sick since you can't give babies many things.
*Vaporizer-safe for any age
*Saline Nose Drops-we used @ 2 months but you should ask your Dr
*Vicks BABYRub-3 months & up
*Johnsons Soothing Vapor Bath-3 months & up
*Hylands C-Plus Cold Tablets-1 year & up
The 1 Gallon Vaporizer usually doesn't have enough water to steam all night(my girls sleep 11-12hrs) but it steams enough the majority of the night when I think they need it most(if you want it to steam longer buy the 1 1/2 gallon vicks). If I go in their room during the night I can tell a HUGE difference compared to our room, their room is comfy/warm & easy to breathe
***If this doesn't steam within 10 minutes all you have to do is add salt. Also, if you get buildup or residue inside all you have to do is soak it in white vingar-DO NOT PLUG IT IN-we had some buildup when I let this sit with water for over a month(I forgot) so I soaked it in vinegar water for several hours & rinsed it very well. It was pretty clean with very minor residue left inside. Had I let it soak in the vinegar longer it would have gotten all of it out, that is what I remember my parents doing when I was little.
