hi
i have bought this "VICKS COOL MIST HUMIDIFIER"
As our central heating is on now since its winter and we were feeling really dried up and dehydrated in the nights.
We bought this humidifier about a month ago because I am having some sinus trouble associated with my pregnancy and all this dryness.
it is a very good looking machine and solid too.
I like the large capacity of the tank. I find the tank cap is hard to remove but I'm usually able to do it with a bit of force.
BUT BUT BUT
the efficiency is very poor.
I have never noticed any difference in the air unless I'm sitting right next to it breathing directly from the machine.
And its very loud on 1st setting, becomes a white noise on 2nd no but then it becomes completely useless as a humidifier.
And yes u have to change the filters every 2 months and they are not very easy to find too.
Only on the looks i would have given it 4 out of 5 stars,
but for its effectiveness, i think 1 star is more than enough
