Permawick not so permanent

byvideolux Jun 16, 2007
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Wick lasts longer than one season.
Cons Wick starts to break down after two years.
Recommended it? Yes

Make sure you save your receipt. This device has a five year warranty, but the so called permawick, even though it is metal rather than paper, has started to dissolve after only two years. All else worked as advertised; it's simple to use, you can put the tank in the sink to refill it, and it's... Read full review »

Pain to clean

byjschofield Mar 18, 2007
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros It is quiet and does put out a good amount of air.
Cons Not "care-free, mold builds up very easily.
Recommended it? No

I've had no issues with this other than the fact that I cannot get it clean. The water tank's hole is too small for a small hand to fit in and you can't get the mildew/mold off the inside of it. This is definitely not a "care-free" model, it has to be thoroughly cleaned at least once a week and by... Read full review »

Mediocre Performance

byblu_1 Feb 10, 2007
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Attractive appearance; electronic controls and digital humidistat
Cons Inefficient humidification; suitable for only a very small space.
Recommended it? No

I bought the Hunter humidifier to replace a Holmes model that had developed a crack in the bottom after 10+ years of usage. I have used the Hunter humidifier for only about 2 weeks, so I can't evaluate its durability and need for cleaning and maintenance. However, I can report on its efficiency and... Read full review »

Hunter 34357 Care Free Humidifier Vaporizes Our Home within Boundaries

bymind-full Feb 5, 2007
49 Helpfuls 50 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros no need to purchase expensive filter replacements, dishwasher cleaning
Cons motor lacks durability, output isn't as high as paper filter systems
Recommended it? No

The Hunter Care Free Humidifier Plus 34357 came into our home late this fall in an attempt to avoid replacing filters on similar models made by other manufacturers, thereby avoiding the cost of maintaining the units.

Add to this the idea that the Hunter unit may be, for the most part,... Read full review »

Pros Quiet. Nice to be able to set humidity level. Big tank
Cons power went out.
Recommended it? No

Worked great until it went out a year later. No power, nothing. Broke the tank the first season - hold tight, slippery! Read full review »

Pros No filters, no gunky build-up!
Cons We haven't discovered any negatives yet!
Recommended it? Yes

We always have a humidifier going in our home, and this one is working out great! There are no filters to deal with and after two months of continuous use, there isn't any of the gunky build-up on the machine. We refill it once/day and that's it! Read full review »

**** Most recent update 01May2006 ***
So I purchased a second unit to replace my initial unit that failed as described below in original review. Was pleasantly surprised to find some minor design changes improved on this new unit. Anyway, after little more than 6 months of service (nearly... Read full review »

Vastly exaggerated its carefree maintenance feature

bytocentsworth Feb 7, 2005
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great idea and selling points about not needing to change filter again.
Cons Dark gummy substance sticks to the water tray that can't be cleaned off easily.
Recommended it? No

I have a humidifier which uses one of those expensive filters, at $14 a pop and a couple of them each season. So when I was looking to buy another humidifier, Hunter's claim about its permanent filter definitely attracted my interest. After I bought one and used it for a little over a week I...

Crap Hunter HUMIDIFIER

byreviewturd Feb 4, 2005
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Home Depot gave me a full refund for this crappy product
Cons Too many to summarize (Read review)
Recommended it? No

I bought this humidifier on the Hunter Fan brand name reputation and must admit it worked fine the first season I used it. The next season I ran into numerous problems excessive leaking, musty smell from sediment build up in filter, poor overall performance and the night light wire shorted out. I... Read full review »

Overrated

byjcho Feb 18, 2004
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Worked okay for a short period of time
Cons Disgusting wick that's not permanent; broken in less than 1 year
Recommended it? No

Bought this unit based on strong recommendations from various sources but it is way overrated. Not only is the wick NOT permanent but it produces disgusting mold and mildew after about a month. There is no such thing as a permanent wick that is bacteria resistant. I knew it sounded to good to be... Read full review »

Pros humidifies well, nice night light feature, great digital humidistat
Cons too noisy to keep on at night
Recommended it? Yes

On New Year's Eve a friend from out of town stayed with me at my apartment overnight. She couldn't sleep, and said it was unbearably dry in my place. She told me no wonder why my sinuses are always bothering me and my skin is so dry. She suggested I get a humidifier, something I didn't even think... Read full review »

Good Humidifier, Low Maintenance

bygblumers Jan 29, 2004
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Low maintenance, good job of humidifying and quiet (maybe).
Cons Customer Support needs improvement.
Recommended it? Yes

This humidiifer uses a filter similar to the Honeywell unit that I had on my house furnace. It is easy to operate and has low maintenance. Since it is evaporative, you don't need to worry about dust in the air. I fill the unit once in the morning and once at night. The holding basin should be... Read full review »
