Customer Reviews of Kaz PersonalMist Ultrasonic Humidifier
Customer Review: Warning - smaller than an identical one from Kaz
Summary: 3 Stars
I have an identical humidifier from Kaz that we like a lot. I should have known the price wouldn't be as low for the same unit. It really is a PERSONAL humidifier. It's quiet, it's effective but it should only be used in a very small room. Fortunately we were able to swap the larger one into the master bedroom and this personal size works fine for a 10x10 room. As with its larger version, the mist is pretty intense and creates a damp carpet from the mist projection - and that's on the lowest setting. We use it to offset the winter's dry air and really like the lack of mold-growing filters and the fact that it's extremely quiet. Compared to the standard cold-mist humidifier with a filter system, this is a much better alternative.Customer Review: Output vs. Longevity
Summary: 3 Stars
I have been using these units for a long time....trouble is, I'm on my third one! They are great for travel because their footprint is small, it has good output and they work great for a hotel room, but they don't last but about 18 months or so. Just long enough so they are out of warranty! They are getting harder and harder to find. I have also tried the Sunbeam portable one,(little output)and the Sharper Image portable one (output was the worst of all). The Kaz will work for you if you use it just occasionally, but it you can get a longer warranty on another portable unit, go elsewhere. I haven't found one. Would I buy this unit again?...yes. Do I wish one was made with a lifetime or at least a three year warranty?...yesCustomer Review: Small and good mist, loud fan to me
Summary: 3 Stars
I find the fan to be too loud for me on this unit. It isn't roaring or anything but it's louder than my ceiling fan by a lot. It is noticeable when I walk in the room. These are inexpensive and work fine. For my money the "Crane 2.3 Gallon COOL Mist humidifier" also sold for Amazon is a better value. It is infinitely more quiet and holds about twice as much water and seems to be able to put out more water on high and unlike this Kaz which has only two settings for water out put (Medium and High) the Crane is adjustable from almost zero to something higher than high on the Kaz. That said the Crane is a bit bigger costs about 15 bucks more, and if you don't like the teardrop shape then this may be a better choice.Customer Review: It Works, but a bit flimsy
Summary: 4 Stars
It is good enough I bought a 2nd unit, but the knob on the first unit been some what damaged, since I managed to rotate it all around. Now I don't use the knob to turn it on and off, I use an X10 switch instead. The 2nd unit knob working just fine, I didn't try to over-rotate it, so who knows.
I like the small container also, was using a much larger one for a couple year, always a hassle to refill water because of the size, although once you do it it last twice as long. But now I realize smaller container is good since it is not a mental hassle to carry it back and fore to the tap.
Out of all the ultrasonic humidifiers, I think this is the best in practical terms for personal use.
Customer Review: Excellent! No filters needed!
Summary: 5 Stars
Great product! Can see the cool mist. Extremely quiet. You woudn't even know it's there unless you see the mist. As soon as we plugged it in and selected the setting it started puffing out steam in an instant. The best part is that I won't be spending so much money on replacement filters! Bought this on sale for $20 and I am very happy with it. It was the only humidifier that didn't require filters and though I had not heard of KAZ brand, I noticed that VICKS humidifiers were made by KAZ as indicated on the VICKS packaging. And yes it is best suited for a single bedroom size but with so much steam being puffed I should think it would be effective even in a larger space.
