 Like Loud White Noise January 8, 2009
It served the purpose but it's too loud as time goes by. I cannot sleep with it on. So, I am shopping for another one and make sure it is much quieter. I also have multiple cool mist type. They are all very nosiy.
Too loud for us, but works effectively December 28, 2008

We bought this over a year ago and we were happy with the small size and good reviews. The only issue is that it is too loud for us to sleep. We are looking for another one now because of it. I am not a light sleeper, but it whistles and that also scares the pets.
 Amazing! December 24, 2008

I always use a humidifier during the winter. Long-standing sinus trouble, plus, dry air tends to give me nose bleeds in the winter.
This is the best humidifier I've ever had.
- multi-settings for level of steam
- medicine cup for humidified sinus/cold meds
- easy fill; you aren't likely to make a mess!
- quiet!!!
cold and warm humidifiers December 23, 2008

I purchased the vicks cool mist humidifier (v3100) while visiting my family in Utah for the holidays. I had a sore throat and that mixed with the heater running and the already very dry air and i was getting up to get a drink 4 times a night. the first night i spent with the humidifier i didn't get up at all. i decided to leave it there and use it every time i visit, summer or fall. and i liked having a humidifier so much i bought a warm mist one, the v745a for my chicago apartment. here is a comparison of the two.
i bought the cool mist for the desert because it was cheaper and will only be used a few weeks a year but will be both summer and winter. it does blow a lot of cool air and will be especially nice in the summer. some people found it quite loud but i thought it was reasonable and used it on the high setting. but i am also used to sleeping with a fan on during the summer. i liked the fact that its shape is lower to the ground making it difficult to tip over. and the seal for the water tank is easier to open and close all the way to prevent leaks. but even after one week's use at night the filter is already more yellow than i expected. if i was using it every day i would have to change it very regularly. it also does move a lot of air like i said before, but the vents are low and it seemed like it was blowing all that moist air right under the bed.
i bought the warm mist humidifier for my apartment because i will only be using it in the winter and didn't want the cold air when my heater is aready working so hard. and i figured it would be more useful during cold season because of the attached medicine cup. it is also for medium/large rooms while the cool mist is for smal/medium so i could move it to my living room if needed. and because i saw the filter on the cool mist got so dirty so fast i liked the fact that this one had no filter, no parts to replace. just weekly cleaning. and the cost difference between this one and the cool mist is about the cost of one filter replacement. it makes very little difference in terms of air temperature, does not heat it up as much as i thought it would, vs the cool mist which did make the room quite a bit cooler. i like the fact that the steam comes out of the top instead of under the bed and it is more quiet than the cool mist even when on the high setting. it does have automatic shut off so i don't have to worry about it boiling dry. i did some research online about warm vs cool humidifiers before purchasing them, and many recommended cool mist for children because of burn risk from using the warm. even after being on all night the unit is cool to the touch and it has a cooling chamber so even the steam that comes out is unlikely to burn. the only way i think a child could injure themselves with this unit would be if they tipped it over, took it apart and touched the actual heating unit because of the auto shut off. my husband guessed the warm mist might take more electricity to run but we'll have to see about that.
overall i am a little happier with the warm mist because i need it for winter, it is quieter and needs to filters replaced. but they are both excellent and inexpensive and once you get one you will wonder why you waited so long. (and by the way the cool mist is $29.99 at target and the warm is $34.99, sorry amazon)
Great product! December 3, 2008

I got this humidifier over a week ago and I've run it almost continuously in our bedroom to help with the cold that my husband, my baby and myself had. I was a bit unsure whether to get a warm or cold mist humidifer, but am glad I chose warm and am glad I chose this one. It works great - is super easy to fill, simple to use and has auto-shut off so I never have to worry about it running out of water and overheating or something. It helped with our congestion - especially my little girl. Considering we live in Los Angeles and it is so dry normally, I plan on using this all winter long - if not beyond that. Highly recommend.
