Hunter Fan 34355

Pros: Powerful motor, works well when clean.

Cons: Difficult to clean.

The Bottom Line: This humidifier is effective, difficult to clean, I like the fact that there are no filters to buy for it.

Review: I have owned this humidifier for over a year. It does a lot of things really well and have only a few complaints about this humidifier. First of all, let's talk about speeds. There is a low and high speed on this humidifier. The low is fairly low and ...

Pros: Relatively good-looking, humidistat works well

Cons: Hard to clean, limited longevity, may need replacement filters

The Bottom Line: Works well, but don't expect it to be a long-term, trouble-free solution

Review: I've purchased Hunter 34355 to help dealing with my son allergies. It is a "cool-mist" model, meaning it doesn't produce a cloud of steam like the "warm-mist" things one can often see in places like Walgreens or white dust like ultrasonic devices. ...

Pros: Hunter Reputation Price

Cons: Motor failed after one season

Review: I purchased this humidifier during the winter of 2002. It ran well during the winter season. I just brought it out of storage for use this year and the humidifier will not run at all. Humidistat controls appear to be in working order; humidity is ...

Pros: design, features

Cons: poor reliability

Review: First impressions: light weight, perhaps a bit flimsy. Noisier than I expected based on reviews I had read. It worked great for about two weeks. Then the fan or motor began to make noise. I promptly returned it for a refund. Ordered this product ...

Pros: Low maintenance

Cons: Even less maintenance after the fan motor fails

Review: I have owned 2 of these humidifiers. The first fan motor failed 2 weeks into the second season. I stupidly bought another and it lasted all of five weeks. It's a shame because this could be a very nice product. Odd that it is the fan motor that ...

Pros: doesn't leak, tank easy to fill

Cons: squeaky motor, motor burned out at 2 years, humidistat controls failed, messy filter

Review: Had multiple reliability problems. Cleaning the aluminum filter produces a strong sulphuric smell. As any unheated unit will, it makes the room cold, which is a problem in winter. Using Original Bt Humidifier Bacteriostatic Treatment is a big ...

Pros: I like the size and design...

Cons: .. but the motors start to get noisy and burn out soon.

Review: We purchased two of these 3.5 gallon units three years ago. We use them winter only to combat the dryness in the desert. They lasted one and a half seasons. Motors stalled and burned out. We contacted Hunter and had to wait FIVE MONTHS because this ...

Pros: Nice humidistat.Cute blue nite-lite.

Cons: Poorly engineered for the long haul.

Review: I used this model last winter with no problems.Then,when I turned it on the first time this season the motor won't turn the fan.Closer inspection reveals the real problem with these units.The motor also turns a small plastic vein pump in the bottom of ...
