SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!
By C. M. Simmons
I purchased one of these humidifiers last winter. At first, I loved it so much I ordered 2 more for my kids. We applied them for 3 months and then put them away when we shut down the heater for the season. This winter, however, we've had not one thing but problems. The firstborn one started leaking water . (I suggest putting the unit in a shoal container if you have nice furniture, as this happens rather often.) The units were still underneath warranty so I contacted the company. They tried everything possible to persuade me from returning it. Their solutions to repair the unit were as follows: Clean the unit with lemon juice, only use distilled water, and empty the unit when not in use. I already do all of these things, but I have no idea how that will "repair" a leak. The unit leak so much that it stopped working. I spend $10 to return the unit. A week later an individual from the company called to say there was not one thing defective with it so they were sending it back without doing any repairs. Needless to say, since they didn't bother fixing or replacing it, the unit still leaks water and doesn't formulate mist.

Nicely Done
By M. Holmes
I travel many times and, while working on a job, my old travel humidifier kicked the bucket. After much internet searching, I found this nifty little device. First off, it's MUCH littler than you think-- more or less more spectacular than a huge box of 250-ct matches. Insert a water bottle, plug it in & you're set. Easy to clean & carry with you, the thing I love most regarding it is that if it runs out of water, it stops on it's own. It puts out a huge amount of cold humid air for it's stature, but unluckily it was struggling versus the fantastically arid air in the Minneapolis hotel room where I was staying. My recommendation would be to run the humidifier all day while you're gone with the door closed to your room and see if that humidifies the space more effectively.

Love the convenience
By MH
I initially purchased this portable humidifier to use at the office. It is exceedingly dry, and I had been getting dried up bloody noses from the arid heat. I was searching for a filterless humidifier, because I did not want to worry in regards to filters get mildewy and gross, peculiarly from not using it over the weekends and holidays. I also wanted something that would be easy to put away in a cupboard when I left work. I came all over this Suppentown portable humidifier and thought it sounded perfect.
It has worked fabulously well so far. As an added bonus, I was without apparent effort competent to wipe it out, put it in my bag, and take it with me to visit out of town family for the Christmas holidays. They have electric baseboard heating, which is exceedingly drying. I applied to keep a regular humidifier there, but I was the only one who applied it, so it necessitated a new filter each time I applied it. This portable one worked perfectly!! A few family members were very fascinated in it, and my mom is even going to order one after seeing how great it worked.
The only thing I may think of that would make it better is if you could use a more prominent bottle. 16.9 ounces doesn't last very long if you have it on high (does not last through the night). I am curious to try a 20 oz or 24 oz bottle perchance one day. I have had issues with a couple bottles employed so far. I think it is because of the cheap, flimsy plastic used. I have tried an Aquafina bottle and a store brand water bottle. Both could be a little difficult getting the adapter on properly. I did find a bottle that works perfectly and seems to be much sturdier (it is 17 oz., so close sufficient to the 16.9 limit). It is Talking Rain Sparkling Ice flavored water. I will keep a couple of those on hand at the office, home, and my parents' house.
I highly commend this humidifier for office use, traveling, or little rooms. I'm not sure it would be the right thing for uninterrupted use at a house because of the water limitation. GREAT PRODUCT!!!
