Humidifier for nursery?

RoxZ32

Baby is expected to make his/her arrival at the end of may/first of June so I'm trying to figure out if a humidifier is necessary for the nursery. Also, I was told by my sister & sister in law that I should get the cool mist instead of warm. I already have a warm one at home for myself so I'm trying to figure out what the difference really is. Would really like some feedback! Thanks!!

We use a humidifier in LO's room in the winter time. I'll get one for this LO too, but we won't need it until later...

We're in the Pacific Northwest so we have plenty of moisture in the air, usually, I guess!

We used the Crane cool mist for a couple of years, but it is SO hard to clean out.  The last time I cleaned it, it smelled like mildew and no about of cleaning (with vinegar and/or bleach) got it out.  So I pitched it.
