Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hunter 33252 CareFree Humidifier Plus with Exclusive Nite Glo Night LightCustomer Review: Best part is no filter Summary: 3 Stars
We have an older model, without the night light. We like it very much, but it does have its drawbacks. The HIGH level is very loud. That being said, the LOW level is not too loud and does what it is supposed to do. Mine does not shut off automatically, but we live in a dry climate.
I think the fact that I don't have to deal with a filter is the best part. It is a decent pick up though.
Customer Review: Better value for the price Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased two different humidifiers and have used two others at work. I liked this one the best. It's not whisper quit but I like the white noise so that's not a problem for me. It's easy to set up and use. I don't believe there is such a thing as a "Care Free" humidifier. Everything that uses water is going to need some kind of cleaning. I use a oxygen cleaner about once a month. I fill a sink about 2 inches with very hot water and mix in the cleaner powder and let the filter "it's not really a filter but that's what they call it" let it soak for a couple minutes then rinse well. You can use the same in a spray for the rest of the unit or windex.
Customer Review: But where is humidity? Summary: 1 Stars
I have a newer one with LCD display but the same design with PermaWick filter.
Compared to my hot steam humidifier this one produces only 1/4 to 1/3 of the vapor when running on low. I can't have it run on high due to the excessive noise it makes in high.
Even on low the noise is harder from me to tolerate compared to my hot steam humidifier.
It will be returned.
Customer Review: Carefree, yes, but use a little common sense please Summary: 5 Stars
Plastic parts are anitmicrobial, but you do have to rinse it out after each fill, because we don't know what is REALLY in our water. Parts go in the dishwasher and others just need a damp rag now & then. It is the best I'v had and I run it every day for the winter months. Im on my second one now & hope to be able to purchase another one in a couple of years,if this one konks out. It is worth the price! I'm much healthier with it!
Customer Review: Doesn't Last - Noisy Summary: 2 Stars
I was disappointed with this product. I had owned a Honeywell prior to buying this and was looking for a unit that did not require a replacement filter.
The first thing I noticed was this unit took twice as long to humidify the room as my Honeywell. It was much less efficient at getting the water into the air.
Secondly, it was noisy and started to rattle approx. 3 months after purchase. We use it only in the 3 months of winter.
The next season I immediately noticed that it was really noisy. Long story short - the cheap little motor is shot.
I threw this one in the trash and I'm back to using Honeywell humidifiers. The big difference is, Honeywell uses drum style fans which move air more quietly and much faster.
Hope this helps.
