Greater than one weekMy old humidifier is over 10 years old, so when I started looking for a replacement, I had specific things I wanted. It had to be quiet, easy to fill, easy to keep clean. The new humidifier has a different foot print, but holds enough water to run for 12 hours without a problem. It is easy to fill and easy to maneuver - water is heavy after all. The only issue Ive had is that if I am not paying attention, I can pinch my arm as I install the water container. The controls are easy to use and quiet. Very quiet. I love the timer feature, too. It saves the hassle of keeping an eye on the unit in case the water container is empty. I opted to not have the smart app on my phone. I dont believe it is necessary and I chose to reduce potential privacy issues by not getting the unit that requires it. All things considered, this has been my best purchase of 2022!

> 3 dayThis humidifier is worth every dollar!! It has so many adjustments that it will easily work in different size rooms. Super easy to use. But the big selling point for us is that its so darned easy to clean. Weve had other humidifiers that leave no room to get your hand in the main compartment or even a cleaning tool because of the shape. We also bought extra filters so we dont have to go hunting for them when we need them. Highly recommended.

> 3 dayThis product is very quiet. I love the 3 mist settings and being able to actually see the level of humidity in the room. You definitely need to use some kind of carbon filter pellets in there if you have hard water. The tank is quite large. Wish this was a top loading tank though. This is not the easiest to clean. There are alot of parts under the tank and although alot of them come apart and come out, there are alot of small places not so easy to reach. Overall I really like this product.

15-11-2024I researched for a couple weeks before choosing the Levoit 6L warm/cool humidifier. I chose it because of the water capacity, noise level and essential oil reservoir. I’ve had smaller room evaporative humidifiers with fans and filters that were annoying and noisy to have in a bedroom. I am pleased with the whisper noise level while using warm mist. My bedroom is about 250sq ft. First night I ran low mist and low heat continuous and it ran for 20 hrs. Second night I set it at low mist low heat and 50% it ran for 23 hrs. The 50% setting kept the room at 41-43% although the humidifier said 45-50%. My hygrometer is 8’ from humidifier. These percentages will differ as the outdoors humidity changes. This humidifier is the best I’ve owned for noise and humidity output. Although it does have a couple things that aren’t all that great. #1. The essential oil reservoir is an awesome idea. It just doesn’t produce much aroma after trying plenty of two different brands of essential oils. This isn’t a deal breaker for me. #2 The tank is a bottom fill. It isn’t awful but a top fill would be nice. #3 The humidifier isn’t responsible for this. I will tell you that using tap water will create a very thick white dust everywhere! I did have this in the back of my mind when I bought it. On “LOW” this puts out “LOTS” of mist therefore “LOTS” of mineral dust. Still not a deal breaker. After the two nights I stopped running it and ordered a water distiller. ** Update ** Distiller arrived! dust cleaned up and….. Distilled water leaves no mineral dust! Wonderful. Bottom line: For me it’s a keeper. Midwest winters are very dry and I am confident this will do it’s job with ease. Hopefully it will last a few seasons with doing routine cleanings. I first used tap water and after two tanks, of course the dust, but the area under the little pad where it vibrates was totally packed with mineral build up. It did clean out ok with soaking it with white vinegar and using the included brush. Now that I am using distilled water I clean it every 5 tanks… and really there isn’t much of a build up yet. I just want to keep bacteria and mold from growing. It is so simple to clean and it certainly can’t hurt.

> 3 dayFirst of all, I want to say, that I (and my plants) loved this unit, and it has worked fine the 3 months I have used it. However, I have found that this mist humidifier (and all mist humidifiers, I guess) goes through my house and leaves a fine mist of white dust on my furnace filter, which makes my furnace short cycle! I have never heard of this before, but I had a heating guy in my house yesterday (for an unrelated issue) and he was telling me about that, and of many customers who have this issue. I think distilled water would be the best, but Ive been using about 2 gallons a day, and am not going to buy that much distilled water! Now, I have to figure out what to do, to get humidity into my house! :(
