Ratings & Reviews for Vornado Evaporative Medium Room Console Humidifier in White

Humidifier

Bought for my daughter and her family for Christmas. She loves it

Very pleased

As always, great Vornado product. Will purchase again as needed.

Nice and quiet

I love how quiet the unit is and how simple it is to refill. The down sides are I believe it either reads in absolute humidity instead of relative humidity ( or it's off by 20 or so ) making it harder to get set right with no elaboration in the owners manual, the manual lacks specs in multiple languages and the settings are in increments of five eliminating small adjustments. The illumination which is necessary for water level alert is a bit much if placed in a bedroom but being mine is in the d...

Great Machine

I went through many humidifiers until I found this one. This unit has been well thought out for the consumer! Most humidifiers are SO challenging to get/keep clean and I've thrown some expensive ones out just because I hated cleaning them!! Not this one. This is the easiest unit to tear down, clean/disinfect and put back together. It's so quiet and puts out plenty of humidity. I like to keep my set on energy and then set the humidity % a tad higher to compensate. I have 2 of these and have had t...

Constantly turns itself off - almost unusable

I bought this to keep my musical instruments at a healthy humidity. 40-50% humidity. I've owned many humidifiers (from Honeywell, Levoit, etc) for this same purpose. This is the worst one. A huge disappointment, as I liked Vornado fans quite a bit. I'd be happy with this product if it didn't turn itself off literally every day. It's done this from the beginning. So every day I have to go in and manually turn it on again. So instead of a convenience, I got a device I have to constantly babys...

Leaks

I bought this product Nov 2021 to use during the winter months due to dry air from heating system. i keep it on my night stand by my bed. it worked great last winter. this winter i noticed it leaking a bit, then it stopped after cleaning. the other night it not only leaked out a lot of water, it caused my phone charger to smoke. it almost started a fire! after looking at reviews i have seem many people have this issue. i can not believe this is already junk!

Best choice for single room

This humidifier has the advantage of superior engineering design. Not only is it efficient, refill is a snap and a regular once or twice a week cleaning is done in a few minutes, with no fuss.

works well

We bought this about a month ago and we are pleased with the humidity level in the home. I filled it up one night and noticed in the middle of the night the light was pulsating, with plenty of water in the tank. I took the tank off and put it right back on, which reset the light (I guess). Have not had any other problems. It does come apart easily, I need to be careful when moving it to sweep the floor.

Love it!

Easy to use, quiet and eco-choice is great! Been using it non stop for 1.5 weeks and I want another one for my back rooms.

Won’t disperse water properly

I wanted to love this humidifier, but it only ran properly the first night. Since then it keeps acting like it’s low on water, when it actually doesn’t keep the water flow going. There is no setting to change the light on and off or even to dim it. So after about 45 minutes of running when it thinks it’s low on water again, the light starts flashing and becomes annoying.

Worked for 4 weeks

For the first few weeks, the humidifier worked well. One issue I had out of the box was the low water indicator consistently turning on despite the tank being 1/2 to 3/4 full, which would cause the unit to turn off after 4 hours. I was able to work around this, but recently the humidistat stopped working. The only way the humidifier will run now is by setting it to continuous humidity mode, which certainly works to humidify the room but takes away the ability to use energy smart mode (which does...

Works great easy to fill and clean

Works great my skin is already thanking me. Easy to fill and clean. Its not noisy at all, has night light but not crazy bright

Failed out of the box

Plugged in unit and filled per the instructions provided. Ensured that tank light is solid so no low-water indication, set for continuous operation and nothing happens. Fan refuses to start regardless of the settings provided. The unit appears nicely built and the design is fine, although being able to fill the tank from the top rather than the bottom would be a nice improvement.

quiet and energy efficient

This is the second of these evaporative humidifiers that I have bought. Very quiet, energy efficient, easy to use. I like them very much except for one thing: they seem to not have the capacity advertised. I am in a 1300 sq ft space; I have 2 of these running all the time (one set at 60%) and the humidity hovers around 45%, which is my desired level, but it's not hard-core heating season yet and I am wondering if I need a 3rd one. Another issue is the filter - I'm sure it matters what one's wate...

No more white dust!

I bought this last month and have been using it since the weather turned colder and dryer. This humidifier is making my room more comfortable without leaving white dust like my previous humidifier did.

Humidifies great--has really bright lights you can't turn off

I bought this humidifier to use instead of an ultrasonic one because I was tired of buying distilled water to prevent the white powder from my very, very hard water. This humidifier works great, though I think the fan is a bit louder than the one in the Vornado ultrasonic humidifier I had. But the lights on this make it impossible to use in a bedroom at night. The ultrasonic humidifier has buttons to adjust everything, with just one tiny led indicator. This humidifier has a touch screen that glo...

Doesn't keep up humidity

Does not get our humidity above 20%..I can't say how many sq ft my apartment is but I could guarantee the downstairs isn't above 1000 sq ft. Pretty disappointed.

Great machine
