Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier is the greatest product. We tried some fancy cool mist humidifier that costs over a hundred bucks that doesn’t work quite as well as this product. My son’s skin can get pretty dry when the heat is on so we need a humidifier. Cool mist humidifier tends to be more quiet (and more expensive) but it makes the room feel kinda cold. Although they usually have a warm setting, the mist still feel rather cold. The Vicks produces steam so it adds some warmth to the room. It’s not a very big room (~10’x15′) so this humidifier works very well. Perhaps the steams’ heat helps in creating air circulation in the room to make the humidity more even.

This is cheap so I like this product a lot. I think I bought it for 30 bucks from CVS. This product requires regular cleaning though. I think the water in my area probably has a lot of mineral. There are usually quite a bit of mineral and calcium build-up after couple weeks of usage. They look brownish but they don’t smell, so cleaning it isn’t bad.
