Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Nice and quiet. Very simple but very efficient humidifier that's great for a large room. We use it in our oversized bedroom and we feel much better in the morning after running it overnight. It can be a little clunky to fill but other than that I'm very happy with it.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Hard to screw top on while holding the water container as it does not have a flat surface opposite the fill area so there isn't anything to rest it on and not have water spill out.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

I put this in a central location and it humidifies the ENTIRE first floor. It's quiet and only needs to be refilled in the morning and evening.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

it is very loud, and not good for bedroom at all. it is also not suitable for large room - only about 3-4 ft around it get moister.
big and hard to move when full
impossible to refill without spilling water
needs handle on the bottom
it consumes as much electricity as my old steam humidifier
not recommended.. total waste

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

In Illinois we have great winters, my first I ran almost continuiously for 4 months every winter for 3 years, the motor final failed and I liked them so much I got another. You need to replace the filter about every 4-6 weeks and have the purifier cartridge. It easy to clean and as I run mine right by my furnace intake, it helps humidify the whole house. The large container means I fill the tank twice a day, which make me happy knowing I am putting 6 gallons of water into the air every day!!!!!

Reasonably quiet

Pros:
Adjustable Settings, Easy To Use, Lightweight, Quiet
Best Uses:
Dry Winter
Describe Yourself:
Homeowner
Bottom Line:

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

This humidifier is by no means silent, but it's reasonably quiet even on a table set on a hardwood floor and would be even quieter on a carpeted floor. The container is awkward to fill until you get used to it, which doesn't take long. I'm very happy with the product so far, and if the filters were out quickly, well, they need to be changed periodically anyway to avoid anything growing there.

Clumsy to fill, needs bottom handle
By The CapnVerified Purchaser from Queens, NY on 1/30/2009
Pros:
Adjustable Settings, Energy Efficient, Quiet
Cons:
Difficult to Fill
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Dry Winter
Describe Yourself:
Renter
Bottom Line:

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Very quiet. Efficient disbursal of mist, but low, horizontal vent outlet delivers chilly draft - better if angled upward. Also, it's quite difficult to fill: rounded top and bottom, so you can't set it down, and no recessed handle on the filling end, so you have to hold it by hooking your fingers in the opening. Poorly designed.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

It's a tiny bit noisy and does cause a cool breeze. You won't want it blowing on you on a cold winter night. It does do a great job of putting moisture into the air quick and for the price, I don't think you can do much better.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

It's easy to use and I like the different speed level, it's quiet enough to use in the bedroom at night on low speed. I have a hard time adjusting the humidity in our bedroom, maybe I should have bought the model with the sensor. I would still recommend this product.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Product works well. It would be nice not to have to fill the humidifier so often. Only runs about 12 hours on high before it needs refilled. Worked well and got the job done. Relatively quiet. Good item for the price.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

We have a new baby that has been sick alot and we needed a humidifier that really worked. It works great even on the lowest setting so you can hear him on the monitor instead of just the machine. I tried a couple of others and they were too loud and didn't put enough moisture in the air. Since, we've bought another one for our own bedroom.

Good product for the price.
By Dad of 2 little tykesVerified Purchaser from Houston, Texas on 1/31/2007
Pros:
Adjustable Settings, Energy Efficient, Lightweight, Quiet

Filter
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Dry Winter
Bottom Line:

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Only issue I have is that the filter needs to be replaced a bit too often, per the user manual, even if the unit is not used veru much. But that appears to be the case with many of these types of humidifiers not just this brand. Overall I give it an 8.5 out of 10.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

Two people living in this house have asthma and with this being a very cold and dry winter so far, their colds and asthma issues were worse and longer in duration than usual. Our doctor recommended a humidifier so I did some research and decided to purchase the Honeywell QuietCare 3.0 Gallon. The machine itself is excellent and exactly what we needed [...]. I use it in the main part of our house during the day and when my kids were sick, I put it in their bedroom at night. It's very, very quiet.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

I have a small house and this humidifier works just fine for what it's rated. I was using the highest setting at first and refilling the water often. So I clicked it down 1 setting and the water last about 3 times as long and it seemed to me it worked better bringing the humidity up faster. When I buy a bigger house I will buy the larger version of this one.

Good value
By VladVerified Purchaser from Brooklyn on 1/10/2007
Pros:
Adjustable Settings, Quiet
Cons:
Poor Water Capacity

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

I purchased this product for my newborn's room so it had to be quiet. Generally, I am pleased with the sound level at it's lowest speed. At any other speed, it seems too loud in my opinion. I am not pleased with the capacity of the tank - I have to refill it about every 10 hours or so. They could have easily increased the capacity by varying the shape of the tank so that it doesn't contain a curve and go straight up from the base. This would not increase the footprint of the unit at all. Other than that, it does what it's built to do. I can usually get the humidity level up in that one room to 50% with the door open.

Easy to Setup, Use, and Gets the Job Don
By jdsmith624Verified Purchaser from Rochester, NY on 11/29/2006
Pros:
Adjustable Settings, Energy Efficient, Lightweight, Quiet
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Dry Winter, Living Room

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

I purchased 2 of these humidifiers for my apartment, for both my living room and bedroom. My rooms aren't extremely large, but for small to midsize rooms I feel this product can accomplish the humidity you desire with only refilling the humidifier on a daily basis. The humidifier is easy to set-up, lightweight, and easy to fill. The adjustable settings help to reach the humidity level you desire and also shutoff so as to not over-humidify your room. Overall, I've been satisfied.

Best Uses:

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell QuietCare 3 Gallon Cool Moisture Humidifier:

[...]I've only used the unit for about 2 1/2 weeks, so I can't speak to long-term reliability. But so far, so good. It's very quiet and compact and does a good job humidifying a fairly large space. I like the included Protec cleaning cartridge - it seems to inhibit mold growth and supposedly works for up to a month. I did some checking for replacement Protec cleaning cartridges and they seem fairly inexpensive, $10 for a two-pack, and that was at a local hardware store. [...]

Good product.
