Tools and Hardware Reviews of Duracraft DWM250 2-1/2-Gallon Warm-Mist Humidifier
Customer Review: Great humidifier for its price
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been looking for a warm air purifier for some time (prefer warm air for safety reasons (avoids mould and airborn particles)). Warm air models range to well over $100. I decided to try this unit because it is cheap and has a large water tank.
I would highly recommend this unit for the price. It has two steam settings (high and low). It has an aromatherapy dispenser. It is easy to refill. It works really well actually.
Some previous posts have indicated that the unit may not last for years and years because of its construction. True, it is not built like a tank. However, for its price I think you would struggle to do better.
Customer Review: Great deal for the $
Summary: 4 Stars
Other customer reviews helped in my decision making while looking for a humidifier. I chose this humidifier and have been very happy with it. I use it during the night only for sleeping. The tank holds more than enough water to get me through the night - roughly 10 hours (hey, a girl has to watch a little TV before getting her veauty sleep). I give it 4 1/2 stars - it does drip a little water when I remove the tank & place it back on the base for filling. This is the first humidifier I have ever owned and am not sure if this is normal for all machines or not. I sleep much better while it is on and it even heats up the bedroom a few degrees. A highly recommended product!Customer Review: It does a good work for its price
Summary: 4 Stars
This humidifier may lack options that expensive ones have, but it is still a good deal. The sound is silent and the water tank has two handles on top and bottom for your convenience. It does not require a filter because it does not have any filtering process. The buttons for "high" or "low" humidicifations are all you need and that pretty much all it has.
The weak point is that the water tank is so small that you need to fill it again after the use of a night. And the "start" button does not have any indication whether it is pressed or not (you have to listen to it untill it sounds to heat the water).
Overall, it's a practical humidifier and a low price.
Customer Review: This Is The One You Need!
Summary: 5 Stars
Like other reviewers, I haven't had good luck with humidifiers. I've bought the mist type which leaves white dust all over the place and I've bought the ones with noisy fans. I'm a light sleeper and this one is super quiet except for the occasional gurgle but like others mentioned, it's kinda soothing. Also, the humidity output is really great. Another reviewer used the word "tropical" to mention how her bedroom felt after using this product and I'll agree. My humidity went from 39% to 50% by using this in my bedroom. Of course for the price and size of this unit, it may not make a huge difference for the entire house but it really works great for one room.Customer Review: Good for the price. Not long lasting but does the job
Summary: 4 Stars
Warm mist humidifiers are self sterilizing and don't leave mineral dust over everything. This unit works very effectively but it is nowhere close to being 2.5 gallon size so it has to be refilled often. But there is an advantage in that-throwing out the old remaining water in the base stretches the cleaning time. The best way to clean is quite warm vinegar, let sit for an hour or two, and scrape with an old wood Popsicle stick. The stick is hard enough to help remove deposits but not hard enough to damage the plastic. The 2 power choice is handy.
These don't last more than 2 or 3 years before refusing to operate. But they are cheap so just buy a new one.
