Recommend your humidifier?

I'm getting ready to buy a humidifier and am reading so many mixed reviews! Anyone have any recommendations?

Re: Recommend your humidifier?

  • We have Crane humidifiers. DS1 has a frog, DS2 an elephant, and DH and I have the teardrop one for our bedroom. No complaints on the animal ones, but the teardrop one has gotten a little noisy after a year of use.

  • We just bought a Honeywell, warm mist, top fill humidifier, and love it. No filters, super quiet, and easy to fill. I would highly recommend it!

  • Out of all the baby gear I've done research on, humidifiers are the biggest PITA. Every single one has multiple reviews on how much they suck. I guess it's just par for the course to know you might get one season out of it and be done :-/ Lame!

  • I have a crane one and love it! It's the elephant one and I plan on getting another one just to have one in every room.

  • Another vote for the Crane. We have teardrop one in our room/DD's room. Thinking about getting an animal one for stepdaughter's room. It's that good.

  • Second the Honeywell for the living room. No filter is awesome. I would use the crane for a smaller room for LO.
  • Thanks for this post - I just woke up with a completely sore throat because it is so so dry in my room with the heat on. We are buying a new one for our room today.

  • We have the crane one as well and love it! Its low maintance compared to others we had in the past and fairly inexpensive. We bought it at bed bath & beyond.

  • I have a Vicks one and it's ridiculously loud but works really well (cool mist, only has 1 setting.) Also have a Crane drop cool mist and i like it so far! You can adjust the humidity settings which is nice. I didn't read the instruction manual before I used it and learned that if you turn it too high the floor gets soaked.

  • We use Vicks as well and am happy with it.
