860 Sq. Ft., Manual Control
This efficient Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic humidifiier uses several cutting edge technologies to achieve an optimum quality of environmental control. High-frequency vibrations generate a micro-fine mist, while an Intelligent Temperature Compensation system (ICS) measures humidity relative to the room temperature and automatically adjusts the output to achieve an optimum balance dynamically as conditions change. The water is kept clean with three separate processes that make up the Microbial Protection System: ultrasonic technology, pre-heating, and Ionic Silver Stick. The latter makes use of the proven anti-microbial qualities of Silver, which has proven effective against more than 650 types of bacteria without any chemical additives.

This humidifier works like a charm...IF
Pros: Excellent water capacity. Silent operation. Works beautifully out of the box.
Cons: Misleading as it looks like a floor standing model. Expensive.
The Bottom Line: Excellent humidifier especially if it is for a newborn. The vapor that is produced is not hot at all. Very safe for children.
Review: ...you do what the instructions say. I cannot stress this enough as the previous reviews seem to harshly criticize this model despite the fact the reviews at consumer guide for a model below this one were stellar.

The Bottom Line: Don't bother. Messy and expensive and it doesn't work as well as the simple console type humidifiers.
Review: I found this humidifier when searching for a replacement for my old Sears console humidifier. I was attracted by its small size, elegant looks, and quietness. Years ago I owned a small ultrasonic humidifier that I found to be more nuisance than it... Read Full Review by flashywings, Feb 20, 2007
Pros: quieter than most, warm mist available
Cons: doesn't humidify well, expensive, expensive to maintain
The Bottom Line: Buy another humidifier--in fact, buy two, three, or four, since it'll probably cost less than buying this one.
Review: I bought this humidifier at Bed Bath&Beyond with one of their 20% off coupons. I took it home, tried it out, and found that it did such a poor job I returned it the next day. There were several problems: First, filling the tank: not only do you have... Read Full Review by purfledspruce, Jan 21, 2007
