Vicks CoolRelief Cool Mist Humidifier, 1.2 Gal

Ive had different humidifiers (Vicks and other brands) and so far this is my favorite. It is big enough to last hours, more than one day. You can select how much humidity you want, though I suggest lowest setting. Can use the vapo pads or liquid. I've had 4 of these so far, and only one started making noise, but not loud. The opening of the water reserve is big making it easy to clean. I use everytime my children start the sniffles and it is effective in helping them sleep. It is worth every penny.

We love it! Had it just over 1 month and it’s been amazing, so we just bought a 2nd one for our sons room!! I can have it turned on to just past half and it’ll last 2-2.5 nights with the high water capacity!! It hasn’t broken, and doesn’t leak at all! Not even on the dresser which has been the case with every other humidifier we’ve ever used. We live in Colorado, and the winters are brutal with dry skin and noses! Bloody noses and coughs are common without a humidifier. We’ve had several over the past 10 years and all the others leaked to the point we’d have them on a towel constantly! Not to mention how quickly they grew the pink fungus and some even got mold! This one has been going strong for over a month with no sign of any gunk and I haven’t used it every single night because I’ve been too tired a few times to refill it. We have ours is in our large master bedroom to aid my husband, myself and our infant in breathing and nose congestion, and there’s the little Vicks insert spot in case we need some extra help clearing our noses! It also emits very little light, which is super important! The noise isn’t bad and yes it does make a random trickle noise like a drinking water tank once or twice the entire night, but doesn’t bother any of us! Plus, it’s right next to our babes sound machine and our toddlers baby monitor so we already have some noise makers in our room. It has been amazing in keeping our skin and noses healthy and moisturized! Buy it! This one’s a good one!!

Simple. Quiet. Easy to use. No fancy apps or digital panels to mess with. One dial does it all. Great for our dry Winter and air. There is an occasional trickle sound, but it is not offensive. I've had others do the same decades ago. I went with he Vicks brand because of their history with nasal congestion product offerings. Met my requirements for value, durability, and functionality. Highly recommended!

I bought this humidifier a year ago, and to my surprise the adjustable airflow control—marked with a blue stripe—has started to fade because of the moisture the humidifier releases. Even the letters in the name “Vick’s” have begun to wear off. Considering it cost $55.00.

Used this a while now, wanting to see how it did. It is a nice choice. So far, very pleased. Nice misty choice settings. Long Plug. Does not wet the area like my older one did. Has 2 ways to add scents. Last all night without worrying it will empty. Is not super loud. Very happy with it.

After a few weeks of use, it began to leak and make an awful squeaking noise. I believe this is a manufacturing issue that should be addressed by Vicks. From what the comments say, it seems many other people have experienced the same terrible malfunction. We all deserve a refund for purchasing a trusted name and receiving a failing product. This machine should be recalled for what could be a mechanical motor issue. It could catch fire for all anybody knows. The capacity is fantastic and it put out substantial humidity before the unbearable, hideous noise began. I’d like for the company to contact me and redeem themselves by providing a refund that can be used toward another one of their machines that works properly.

I did not want to get into a fancy humidifier for winter months to stave off the amazing dryness this year. This item is easy to use right out of the box. On high it won't make it 24 hours it will need to be filled again. I have a very small home under 1000 sq feet and use this for the whole home, set in the center area. It does stop 'working' when the water depletes, although it does stay on, there is not shut off for that, just no fan running. Works fine.
