Tools and Hardware Reviews of VENTA AIRWASHER LW24 Air Humidifier and Purifier All-in-one
Customer Review: Very low output
Summary: 2 Stars
For the price, I found this to be a very poor choice. It is attractive in it's simplicity-all plastic parts. After a second winter, I have come to the conclusion that it actually achieves next to nothing in terms of humidification. I threw it in the trash yesterday. Enough said.
Customer Review: Works but is noisier then advertised
Summary: 3 Stars
A very simple design that works humidifying a room but I am not so sure about the air cleaning properties. The special soapy mixture you use seems to collect an amount of dirt when it's time to replace the liquid but what does that mean? Replacing the fluid and cleaning the unit is more work then throwing out a filter but that's not a real problem.
The unit is not bedroom quiet, at least for me. I eventually banished it to another room until I gave the unit away to someone with a two floor house. They are are very happy with it as it helps keep their musical instruments from drying out in winter. The aromatherapy option is very nice and works well.
The price prevents me from recommending it. I have some $50 ultrasonic humidifiers that work just as well.
Customer Review: Works well, but .....
Summary: 3 Stars
We have two of these units. They work well and humidify efficiently and quietly. I find them easier to clean than other humidifiers and like the fact that I don't have to buy filters that cost $20-$40 depending on the brand. I gave it three stars, because the fan mechanism seems to be poorly made. In both units the fan was defective and had to be replaced. The first did not engage the discs, while the second made a rattling noise. Venta sent me replacement parts without questions, however that should not happen at that price level.Customer Review: cleans and humidifies - could be cheaper
Summary: 5 Stars
The political commentary on Germany of one reviewer notwithstanding, this thing works. I have 3 of them. I don't need fancy measuring equipment to tell me that it works when it cleans the air in a smoky, unventilated (windows closed) room overnight. No odor. My little humidistat tells me that room humidity rises by roughly 15% on the lowest speed setting, and an extra 5-10% each when you go to speeds 2 and 3, depending on room size. I have one at work where it keeps my skin and sinuses from drying out in the winter air, and saves me from the aroma of burnt popcorn, which sometimes emanates from the breakroom. I sometimes add a little fragrance, which this does a great job of spreading. Just a few drops of essential oil will do. And yes, Venta is too expensive, which is why I got mine on eBay. Also, when I needed a replacement part Venta mailed it to me very quickly no questions asked. Great warranty.Customer Review: fewer sinus infections
Summary: 5 Stars
We purchased this unit in Germany after my son had repeated sinus infections. (He has asthma and is prone to have it triggered by these infections.) After this purchase, his sinus problems were significantly reduced! Our troubles began again after the unit fell off the dresser and the casing cracked, rendering the humidifier useless. It's expensive, but it worked well at helping to ward off my son's illness. Other humidifiers have not seemed to prove as effective.
