Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell Vicks V4202 1.2-Gallon Cool-Mist Humidifier
Customer Review: Too Loud
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this product for use in the nursery. It makes a terrible vibration that is very loud. After buying the first unit, it stopped working after about a month. I had emptied the water and let it dry out everyday and cleaned it weekly. The company let me return it with no receipt, so that was no hassle. I believe that they sent me a reconditioned unit which was extremely LOUD with this horrible vibration. We tried everything to get it to stop. It made both me, my son and my husband very grouchy! Finally, it stopped working the other day. I am fed up with it and am throwing it in the trash, Finally!Customer Review: Upset and disappointed

I purchased this unit for my newborn son. My pediatrican recommended a cool mist humidifier and I thought this would be the perfect one for his nursery... It was in his nursery for approximatley 1 week when my husband noticed water on our sons dresser, my husband then looked in the back of the dresser and noticed that the unit had badly leaked and there was a noticeable puddle of water not only in the back of this dresser but when my husband opended his top drawer there was a good amount of water on his clothing and the water had also damaged our sons dresser drawers.... Needless to say my disappointment and shock that the unit was leaking but had ruined some of our sons clothes and brand new dresser/changing table... I do not recommend this unit at ALL !!! Spend the extra money and buy something else !!!Customer Review: Very dissatisfied

I have a terrible problem with the Vicks Healthmist Humidifier that I purchased from Target. I bought it soon after my first child was born Nov 2002, and ever since then it has been a tremendous effort to keep mildew from forming both in and out of the unit. I clean out the tub and refill it with water each night, wipe down the inside and outside of the vent and mold/mildew still grows in it overnight! This causes more harm than good to try and help my baby breathe better. Finally frustrated with the entire process, my husband and I took the screws out of the top unit to remove ALL pieces to find a disturbing amount of mold/mildew in the plastic pieces attached to the motor!!! Once we put it back together, it now makes a loud noise as the plastic piece spins around. Entirely TOO much work to use a humidifier and to still not be able to keep it clean.Customer Review: We like it!!!!

Despite reading all the negative reviews about this product, I registered for it anyway and I am so happy that I did! This is one of the most used gifts that I received after having my son. I use it every night in the nursery. My son has eczema and his doctor recommended I use a cool mist humidifier in his room at night to keep the air moist. I keep a towel under it and have had no problem with dampness. My husband and I have decided to purchase this same humidifier for another room in our home.......Customer Review: Wouldn't Recommend It

I received this humidifier as a shower gift. My husband opened up the package only to find that it was broken. So, we took it back to Target to get another one. It worked okay for a few weeks (we did have problems with a little bit of mold growing in it)but then we went to refill it one day and the darn thing was broken in the same spot the one we had returned was. BTW, when it's broken it makes a terrible noise. It's a very cheap humidifier and the plastic parts don't hold up very well at all. I wouldn't waste my money on this one.
