Product Description

Unlike other humidifiers that grow slimy mold and mildew, the pureguardian 55-Hour Ultrasonic Digital Humidifier uses Silver Clean technology to fight the growth of mold and mildew on the surface of the water tank. Thanks to ultrasonic technology it is ultra-quiet when it runs making it ideal to have on while you sleep. The humidifier is equipped with the option for warm or cool mist and a low water indicator light lets you know when it’s time to refill the water tank. It features a soft glow night light that turns on and off and easy-to-use digital controls.

Love it!!!
By J. Punjwani
I love this humidifier! My 3yr old daughter is always catching a cough or cold at school and I constantly use this in her room at night. It's worth the money. I have been through maybe 5 humidifiers since she was born, but I think so far this has been the best one. I was using the frog Crane before this one, which was good use for the price, but cleaning it was a task. If you are willing to spend a bit more , this is a good investment.

Great humidifier
By OKC3
I purchased this unit at a big box store 3 years ago at a comparable price. Works just as well today as the day I brought it home. From what I have read (owner's manuals for other brands via manufacturer's websites) this humidifier is the easiest to clean and maintain. Some reviewers for other brands say "no cleaning just replace the silver cube once per year, etc.). Well, sorry to say they did NOT read their owner's manuals! The Germguardian H1600 manual ([...]) instructs users to clean with fresh water and a soft cloth on some areas of the device, and to only use the provided brush (which stores neatly inside the unit so it is not easily lost) to clean the silver ion disk with water (diluted white vinegar may be used if necessary). You can use run of the mill TAP WATER to fill the tank and for cleaning...no special chemicals, no gallons of distilled water to lug home, no filters to maintain or replace, etc. (You can use distilled water in your H1600 if you see a l ot of white dust; I do not see white dust and have always used the city tap water.) Who could ask for more?

- The tank is easy to remove, fill, and replace on the base unit.
- Unit is fairly quiet...only occasional gurgling sounds that last only a second, when they occur.
- The silver ion disk is visible when you remove the tank, so if it needs a quick clean, it is easy to do when I refill the tank.

My bedroom is an average size (hardwood floors - no rugs) and takes no time to increase the humidity level from 27% to 37% using cool mist with middle spray control setting (as measured by a digital Acurite indoor/outdoor humidity & temp monitor sitting across the room from the humidifier). Side note: I do keep the door closed while sleeping. In addition, when I move the unit to my living room I find the humidity level to increase at a satisfactory rate despite the room being considerably larger than my bedroom...the living room has a barr el ceiling and is a fairly open plan to the dining room.

I now want a second unit for my living room so that I do not continue carrying my original back and forth between rooms. I considered more expensive units from other manufacturers that provide a larger coverage area but the cleaning and upkeep concerns me as I know I will forget to clean the unit or not clean it well enough and risk making my family sick!

Problem at first but good service.
By ML
The product stopped working soon afterward even with filtered water. But the company was helpful and sent a new unit. This product is way better than the junk at most stores like CVS.
