Elechomes SH8830 Humidifier, 6.5L(1.72Gal) Top Fill Warm and Cool Mist Humidifiers for Bedroom with Remote Control, 700 ml/h Max, Auto & Sleep Mode, 360° Nozzle, Auto Shut-Off

My humidifiers arrived with each double boxed and properly installed styrofoam packaging for a very secure delivery.Here are the details of my review:1) I ordered two humidifiers. Both arrived undamaged. All components were intact - nothing broken.2) I have used both humidifiers for a total of 15 hours. There are no water leaks anywhere. However, to be proactive I placed a small plastic storage container under each stand that each humidifier sits on just in case.Each stand is a light weight bathroom type multi tiered organizer for rolls of toilet paper, soap, etc. - purchased at one of the discount stores. Each organizer is designed with casters for the bottom of each of the 4 legs to roll around. The stands have open wired like design should any water leaks occur the water will simply flow freely between the sections of the tiers down to the plastic containers underneath. Be careful not to use the top tier as it will become “top heavy” and could tip over.3) One reviewer mentioned using the settings of High Mist, Low Heat for fear of running up the electric bill with the humidifier set on High Mist, High Heat.4) I use the High Mist, High Heat setting on eachhumidifier. After about 30 minutes running the Mist temperature is warm to high range of warm. I can place my wrist over each mist outlet - about one inch from the outlet. The mist will not burn. That’s my own personal experience. Some people may have more sensitive skin than I do. This is simply a check on the heat of the mist being exhausted into the room.5) With the High Mist, High Heat setting each humidifier will use about as much electricity as a 60 to 70 watt light bulb. Any increase in an electric bill would not be nothing noticeable. The humidifier does not heat up like a coffee maker using the settings as I described.6) Using the High Mist, High Heat setting the mist is about 5 feet in length as another reviewer described. Each humidifier will increase the humidity significantly in a 750 square foot space.7) The humidifier will automatically turn off once it senses the amount of humidity according to what is set for the unit.8) I noticed that each humidifier reading of humidity is about 10% - 12% higher than the actual humidity. I checked this by comparing the humidity reading of each unit to the humidity reading of a programmable, digital Trane Nexia wall Thermostat that was installed with a complete, new 16 Seer Trane HVAC system.9) I purchased two humidifiers, with one placed about 7’ - 8’ from the main air return of the HVAC system so that the mist will circulate through out the house. The setup does a good job for our house that is 2,000 square feet, including a second story bonus room.10) Using the settings I described, the water tank in each humidifier will use about half the water in a 6 - 7 hour period. Each unit puts out a lot of moisture.The humidifier is Made in China. I was pleasantly surprised with the function of each humidifier. Although, I have only used the humidifiers a few hours both appear to work as expected.The price of the humidifier is reasonable. Unless things change during the next one or two months of heating, I would buy again.

I only had this for a day, but so far so good and I'm happy enough with them to write my first Amazon review or at least my first in a long time.I was looking for a good humidifier with the following features:* Allows you to set a desired humidity level and automatically attempts to maintain it* Quiet enough to be in the same room as a Zoom meeting* Top fill/easy to refill using a water pitcher instead of having to move tank around* Large enough tank to not be constantly fillingThis isn't the "best selling" unit on Amazon but after looking at a bunch of reviews of different units I settled on this one and am glad I did. It satisfies everything on my list and works great.I got two of these and both were easy to set up and didn't need any assembly.I saw some people talk about them leaking in comments but I didn't have that problem. In shipping the different components can move around including the rubber tank seal. Before you fill it for the first time take the tank off and make sure everything is in its place. For me that tank seal and filter both needed to be set in their spots. Once you do that fill it up and it should work perfect the first try.The unit is pretty quiet when it's running. Much less noisy than a fan based unit. There is a slight running water noise like a bubbling brook but it's very faint (and kind of soothing to be honest).The only thing I'd improve would be the looks. I think it would look better with a smooth case instead of the stylistic ridges they added to the case but that's just a personal preference thing.I live in the northeast (Maine) and with winter coming I was dreading the dry air from having to heat all the time especially working from home. I think these units will solve the problem.

I've had SEVERAL, different, ultrasonic humidifiers over the past decade. They all work reasonably well, but this is the humidifier I am bringing into my office as it really can kick out the moisture (to the point that I will need to put it up on the window ledge so the carpet doesn't get damp.) Because getting moisture in the air is my main reason for having a humidifier, the fact that this can, LITERALLY, create a cloud like haze that will take up an entire office (if you shut the door), I have to give this high marks.The only reason it gets 4 out of 5 is that it has far too many parts to worry about, the settings are not as intuitive as they could be (particularly with the sleep/time/child settings) and I can't take the tank to the faucet for filling, but rather have to bring the water to the tank. I repurposed a 4 gallon kitty litter container for that role, so all is good.If you have ever worked in an office in the northern part of the USA, where it gets really cold outside and when that air is heated for the office space it is as dry as a desert (my office is 8-16% before I start adding humidity) then you will really appreciate having this. I find that I am healthier when I can avoid getting the sorts of sore throats caused by no humidity in the office.

I've always used warm mist humidifiers, which seems to be slowly going out of stle. After a bit of reserach, I found this one. It's quiet, it pumps out humidity. I set mine to medium fan speed and high temp setting (winter) and it's great. I don't get any white dust, but lets be honest, that has more to do with your water than the humidifier.Note: I don't put much credibility into the humidity level reading. I found it to be about 20% off while the unit is on. If you think about it, it's pumping out humidity in a small area and it takes time to circulate though the room. I just set mine to 65% (instead of 45%) and it found it works well.After a couple months, mine did start to leak, but customer service took care of it promptly.Very happy with the humidifer and the customer service. Woudl buy again.
