Tools and Hardware Reviews of VENTA AIRWASHER LW24 Air Humidifier and Purifier All-in-one
Customer Review: Great product!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the second humidifier in this size I have purchased. It is easy to clean and works great in a smaller room. I would not recommend for anything larger than a small bedroom. If you need to humidify a larger room, purchase this unit in a larger size. It is easy to maintain! Would recommend.Customer Review: Incredibly overpriced and ineffective
Summary: 1 Stars
I just wish I had had access to these reviews before I plunked down the money for this product. Exasperated with buying and replacing filters, smelling mold, listening to noisy contraptions, I figured what the heck - I've tried everything else. Running full blast this thing couldn't even get the humidity in my small music studio up to 30% on a cold day here in a suburb of Philadelphia. As other reviewers have pointed out, you get no water level indicator, no shut-off when the water dries out, no humidistat to turn it on and off automatically. I could go on.
I see that they're selling them used starting at $280. I'll give you mine for $25 with my undying thanks.
Customer Review: Not exactly what I wanted, but OK...
Summary: 3 Stars
I had a fantastic Sears Kenmore with a rotating belt evaporator that had to be replaced only three times in 15 years. An Emerson replacement required new filters frequently that turned into mush after a month or two. For some reason the humidifying method that Kenmore used and which worked beautifully is no longer available. The problem with this unit is it's low capacity and high price. I have to keep it next to my bed; the Kenmore effectively humidified the whole house.
If the thing didn't have a little annoying rattle, it would very quiet and it does have a quality appearance. It's clear to me that a good humidifier is still hard to find. Remember how the Japanese came in and replaced all the old clunky American table fans 40 or so years ago? It's time someone came out with a decent humidifier for not a whole lot of money.
Venta may have a good idea, but this isn't IT yet. This isn't rocket science.
Customer Review: Owned it for years - a breeze to clean
Summary: 5 Stars
I've placed the Venta on a table right by my bed in a large room with an open stairwell. Don't expect it to humidify the entire space. Nasal passages and eyes are so much less dry. No more nose bleeds. Prefer it to the various humidifiers I've owned over the years. Water can be added easily and quickly using a pitcher (a plus since there's just a half bath on that level) with no need to carry it back and forth to a larger sink. Becoming lazy and not cleaning it regularly may not be advised but at least you don't kill it with a build-up of hard water deposits. Even with diligent cleaning it's hard to get more than 2 years out of some humidifiers these days; this has lasted for years. It finally did start clicking. Nice to know why and that it's easily remedied. I don't quite understand the reported difficulties in cleaning; it's actually much easier and less messy than other humidifiers. The black container opens up like an envelop so that every part, except the motor housing, can be cleaned in the sink or DW. No hard scales to scrape off; it just wipes clean. There's even a little door to open to pull the electrical cord out. Ingenious.Customer Review: Venta Air Washer
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my second Venta Airwasher I have purchased. They work as far as keeping the dust down. I keep it next to the bird cages to keep the feather dust down. The 10 year warranty is a plus. I had to send for a gear part twice on my old one in the last 8 years. The company promptly sent me the replacement part at no charge. It takes a little mechanical ability to install the part. The only down side is having to fill it with water about every other day and then cleaning it about every 2 weeks.
