Pretty good!:
This is a nice unit that keeps my house at 50% humidity on a once-a-day fillup. Some complain about the noise, but look....it sounds like a fan. It IS a fan, plus a wet rag, basically, that's what a humidifier IS. So it's quiet on low, tolerable on medium speed, and on high speed...it sounds as loud as a fan on high speed.

2. Maintenance cost. Like I said, the filter gets... more info
read description carefully!:
The "11 gallon daily output" is only possible if you fill it THREE TIMES A DAY - the two tanks hold 3.25 gallons total. That is a ridiculous piece of marketing. Also very annoying you can't see the water level in the tanks unless you lift it out of the humidifier. Finally, it's very tough to fill the tanks, because you have to put the handle side down to screw the top back on - but the handle side has isn't a flat surface. It has the usual problems of constantly needing new filters, but that is common to... more info
