Tools and Hardware Reviews of Clairion Comfort Plus 3-Gallon Warm-Mist Humidifier
Customer Review: Complete waste of money!
Summary: 1 Stars
The Clairion was easy to clean, sure. Problem is, ours stopped working. I'm talking, just two weeks of ownership and it gave up on us, we had done everything the right way, cleaned it, filled it up like they said, etc. So I contacted Clairion and part of their reply was -- and I quote -- "Take the humidistat out of the humidifier and look for the 3 slits below the restart button, take a hair dryer and send some warm air into those slits for 5 minutes. That usually recalibrates the humidifier." Oh, okay, I'm gonna use a hair-dryer to fix my humidifier. Yeah, right. Wanna know what I REALLY did? I put my Clairion in the trash, went out and bought a humidifier by a Korean company, Levant. Best humidifier I ever bought. Avoid Clairion at all costs!Customer Review: Easy care, works well
Summary: 5 Stars
I have two Clairion 3-gallon humidifiers and I love them. They work well and are very easy to maintain. I am so disappointed that they are not being sold here on Amazon because I wanted to buy two more.
I am quite concerned with maintaining the cleanliness of my humidifiers and originally I intended to buy an ultra-violet light model. I went to Brookestone, and there I had the idea of asking to look at the instruction manual before purchasing the humidifier. I was blown away by how much maintenance was required. So I went home and researched some more, and discovered this humidifier.
The only negatives: I like the blue and white color scheme that is popular among humidifiers, and would prefer that to the beige/brown color scheme of the Clairion. And the do make noise. Not an annoying noise. Definitely white noise. But they are not silent.
I see from other reviews that some people have been unhappy, but mine work well and are easy to use.
Customer Review: Easy to clean but very cranky
Summary: 1 Stars
Pro:
The unit was very easy to take apart and clean. That's the main reason I bought it. I didn't want the hassle of constantly replacing wicks or trying to clean heating elements that were impossible to reach.
Cons:
The handles are on the opposite side as the refill opening. So picking it up after filling it is more difficult than it should be.
The boiling water is very loud. To be honest, I thought this would bother me more than it did. I had no problem sleeping through the noise even though it was maybe 10 feet from the bed.
The humidistat is inside the unit right next to the heating element. Even though I cleaned and dried the unit each day, after about a week, the humidistat became very cranky. It would shut the humidifier down and I couldn't get it to restart. Then after a couple of days, it would dry out (I'm guessing) and work again. Then stop working after a few days.
There must be better warm mist humidifiers that are easy to clean and actually work for $90. This was a piece of junk.
Customer Review: Good humidity but too loud and awkward
Summary: 2 Stars
I was happy with this humidifiers performance in regards to how quickly it humidifies the room, however it was very noisy and difficult to fill. Another reviewer reported that the humidistat is very cranky, which is accurate. Sometimes it will go for a day or two without working because of a damp humidistat. I would not recommend this unit, especially for the cost. I understand that Clarion no longer makes this model anyway!Customer Review: Humidistat is a REAL problem

I did extensive research to find a sanitary, easy-to-clean, well-designed large humidifier. I was extremely pleased with my purchase for ONE week! What a terrible design flaw! Turns out my hassle-free humidifier is a piece of junk! Next time I'll read customer reviews!!
