If you have a cool mist humidifier, what do you put in on?

I just started using one yesterday for DD.  She is sick.  All we have in her room is her dresser, a round wooden table, her crib and nursery chair.  The humidifier reads not to put in on top of wood, carpet or a towel or anything metallic.  What do you set yours on top of if you use one in DC's room?

    Weird that there aren't many options.  I put a baking sheet on top of DD's table top and then set the humidifier on top of that.  But the baking sheet is metal so now I need to find something else.  Ugh.

    I obviously didn't read the instructions because ours is on the floor. And it has already spilled once but I don't see any other options.

    I have been putting ours directly on the hardwood, so Oops! I was thinking maybe it would work if you had a cutting board made of plastic or silicone?? They you can set it on top of that and place it wherever you'd prefer.

    We use one. I didn't see in the directions where it says not to put it on carpet. It just said to keep it at a distance from the wall. So, it's on the floor.

    Ours reads you can't put it on carpet or the towel because the vent is on the bottom and the fabric can restrict the airflow and cause overheating.

    I like your idea of a plastic or silicone cutting board.  I'm going to try that.  Thankyou for sharing your idea!!

    Right now.. on the box it came in, but I plan on just picking up an inexpensive stool to put it on.

    That's a great idea!  I can store it in DD's closet and get use out of it...then roll it out when I need to use the humidifier.  I'm going to do this...thank you!
