Too difficult to use

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

Very difficult to fill. Made of lightweight material, so even on wheels, when it was full it was difficult to move. Also, there is a small hole at the point of maximum filling (probably to prevent overfilling) and when it is moved water spills out of the hole. The only way to avoid that would be to only fill 1/2 full. Never ran it, just returned, because I knew it would be difficult to use.

It sits in the hallway at the top of our stairs and you can feel the difference as you enter the second floor. Love the small footprint and it is sooooo easy to fill and clean! The blower on the higher level is very loud, we use it mostly on the first level for that reason but it does a great job.

I find this product perfect for keeping my condo at a comfortable humidity level. The digital controls make it simple to use. I have it located at one end of my kitchen, which is approximately the center of my condo. For refilling, I simply roll it over to my kitchen sink and, using the hose, refill it.

My delivery was prompt, and the product arrived in good condition. I have yet to need to contact customer service.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

I love the product as a whole because my family was waking up with dry throats and noses before. Now we wake up feeling good. The only complaint I have about the product is the cheap retainer ring. When the humidifier came, the little prongs on the retainer ring, that hold it in place, were broken and I had to super glue them back on.

Service & Delivery comments:

It came within a week of purchase. It came in good condition. They made sure there was enough packaging so that it would not move. I was very pleased.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

This humidifier is a good value. It is quiet on the low setting, but too noisy to operate at the high setting. The large capacity means fewer fill-ups, making it more convenient than many other humidifiers.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

This is my third unit. I've never been able to have one last two seasons. The first unit had a controls failure; the second had a motor failure. If the unit fails under warrenty, the company is good about replacing/repairing. Out of warrenty, buy a new one. Because the unit rolls up to the sink and fills with a hose without having to lift heavy water bottles, it's worth the short life to me.

I bought two of these to humidify a commercial/business space. They work great. I bought two to gain additional capacity/duration.

On high fan they are quite noisy, but really put out the humidity. The quiet setting would work fine, but with less output.

Great Humidfier

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

Use in winter to help humidify condo. Covers large area 1500+ sq ft. Two fan speeds (a middle speed would be nice). Capacity is decent (about 1 fill per day). Relatively inexpensive compared to other humidifiers that cover same area. No problems in first few weeks of use. Humidifier gauge appears to work well and fan will stop once selected level reached and will restart when needed. Filter replacements are decent price.

This is a nice little machine. I've owned a number of different humidifier brands over the years and I rate this one as one of the best. Very, very quiet fan in the "sleep" setting. Only wish it were a bit larger so wouldn't have to fill so often.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

I used to use a warm mist humidifier which I loved, but since I have a one year old, I realize it was not a good idea. I didn't want a cold mist humidifier with the scaly filters and thought I would try the "wicking" humidifier. I would have to say I am very pleased. There is no detectable mist coming from the machine but there is a difference in the air moisture. We keep it in a hallway but it seems to humidify all 1200 sq. ft. of our first floor.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

Overall, I like this product. I specifically purchased it to moderate the climate for my artwork and my piano. The digital readout works very well, and the motor shuts off when the desired humidity is achieved. There are two settings and the high setting is quite loud. This unit works well for my living room and dining room, but seems to have little impact to my bedrooms. This may have been too big of a unit for the space that it's effecting.

This Humidifier is working fine. The built-in Humidistat consistantly reads 15%-25% higher than what we believe but that is in part do to it's location being over the bucket to water. It is quite and seems like it will last awhile running every day 4 to 8hrs.

Comments about EssickAir EssickAir 800 Series SpaceSaver Style Humidifier:

It's great to have a humidifier with this capacity in the dry climate(half the year) that we live in. My husband fills it, and complains a bit, but that's normal. The water lasts between one and half and two days during the extremely dry periods. The noise of the machine is pretty low and very bearable. Cleaning is not a major deal, and the overall thing seems pretty easy. It's nice that it's on rollers, too.
