Felt that it helped with the dryness alot but it quit working after only 5 months. It was used alot but not continually and mostly on the low setting.

Don't bother with this one!

This quit after less than 4 months of use. I expected far more of the Hunter brand than this humidifier delivered. It was NOT run continuously either.

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

I already have and will continue to recomend this
product to friends and co-workers. I love Winter here in Nebraska, but the dryness as I've aged is
killing me. I use it in the living room and even
my plants in the bedroom are looking better because of the moisture in the air. I plan on purchasing another humidifer very soon.

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

Purchased one for a small infant's room. The unit is easily setup, and the water tank is easily filled under the kitchen sink. On high speed, the unit is noisy, but it is has a calming effect while sleeping similar to a small box fan. Running the unit on high drops the room temperature a bit and makes for a nice night of sleeping. The night light is a little bright, but if you have a little one sleeping next to you it make it easy to see in the room.

Works great in my J C Pendergast Humidor

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

When my Hunter Model 33202 stopped working, it was my local [...] that saved my 3000 cigars in my Pendergast humidor from drying out. They had a 33222 (same unit, newer model number) on hand. This a great unit and had many trouble free years from the old one.

Returning it........

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

Was excited to get this unit home and try it....
Very nice design (easy to set up), but very very loud. I bought it for my daughter's room, will definitely return it.

Very nice unit, worth the expense.

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

This unit worked very well for me while I was suffering from sinusitis. It's actually not as loud as some of the other units I've used, and I personally didnt find the fan to be anything but calming as I laid in bed.

The night light feature is interesting, it's just a tad too bright for my tastes, but it's cool if you're sick and getting up frequently at night as a result - and you can always shut it off (independently of the unit) or aim it away from you.

The unit's overall performance was great. I didn't notice any significant drop in room temperature at all and I have to admit, the room's humidity level was substantially more pleasant in just a few hours of continuous use, and my bedroom isn't as small as some.

Probably the only thing I wish this unit had that it doesn't have would be a UV germ-killing light somewhere inside it, but I can live without it as the anti-microbial cartidges you can buy work just fine with the unit's tank.

makes a difference

Adjustable Settings, Easy to fill

Cons:

Noisy

Best Uses:

Bedroom, Dry Winter, Help With Ailments

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

compared this to another humidifier we have and this works much better - puts out a lot more moisture and it does make a difference...unfortunately it gurgles and makes noises thru the night but the benefits are worth it...like the night light when checking on sick kids!

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

This was purchased as a humidifier/vaporizer. It states on the instructions NOT to put any type of liquid other than water in the machine. I was expecting to use the Vapor Liquid in it.

easy to use, but output to low

By larriji from St. Louis, MO on 1/4/2007

Pros:

Easy to fill

Cons:

Can't tell if it works

Best Uses:

None

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

This humidifier is very easy to fill, set up and get going. But the mist output is not enough to really combat any kind of sickness, cold - especially for a child. I bought it to combat a dry cough and it barely changed the humidity level in one room. I am returning it after one try.

Sounds like a freight train

By Sleepy from San Francisco, CA on 12/20/2006

Pros:

None that I could see

Cons:

Bulky, Noisy, Works Too Slowly

Comments about Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus:

Very loud at all power levels... yet says great for the bedroom on the box!

And for all that, it didn't even move much water. Took about 1/2" off the tank every hour at highest setting.

DOn't waste your money.
