Still Great After 4 Years!

Date of Review:  May 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: The V5100 is quiet, effective and durable.
Review: To combat a cold, our son's pediatrician recommended a cool mist vaporizer when he was just a few weeks old. The doctor said it was better than almost any medicine. We went out and bought a Vicks Ultrasonic V5100. Four years later, we're still using...

Easy to Use and Fill, Does it's Job

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2005
Review: This humidifier is easy to fill, basically easy to clean, and does it's job nicely. You can adjust the amount of humidity coming out by a push/slide button on the front and the nozzle on the top. When operating, it is all out SILENT. I mean really...

LEAKS

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2007
Review: This is an update on Jan 19. It's not leaking any more. I think the base needed to be wet around the edge when first used to make a seal. On the 2nd day it only leaked a little around the on and off switch. It is used nightly and there are no more...

Pulls the dry right out of the air!

Date of Review:  May 23, 2009
The Bottom Line: A solid, reliable performer. Humidifies quickly and efficiently
Review: I live in the very hot, and dry mojave desert area of California, where the average humidity in summer stays around 5-10% in the daytime and 20% at night. Needless to say, this level of humidity is very tough on anyones skin and because of this my...

Lots of vapors

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2007
Review: This really cranks out the vapors! We were told by our doctor that a humidifier would help keep our babies from getting sick & was good for colds. We run it in their room almost every night, and at full volume it will go through a gallon a night. I...

Works well but smells fishy

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 2007
Review: I bought this Vicks Ultrasonic V5100 1.50 Gallon Humidifier because I live in an apartment complex that uses radiated heat (therefore extremely dry sleeping conditions!). I think I paid about $40 for it at CVS. I think it works very well--it...

Dial/knob doesn't do anything

Date of Review:  Nov 2, 2005
Review: This is the fourth ultrasonic humidifier I've purchased over the last 10 years and the only one that doesn't really work. It does put "vaporized" water into the air, but the knob which has symbols from "a little moisture" to "a lot of moisture"...

V5100N

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: I wish I had bought this one first, we use it back and forth in the kids rooms and sometimes in ours.
Review: Please note, this is for the V5100N humidifier, not the V5100

** Email from manufacturer as follows :-

"The V5100N is a new revision to the V5100. It works in the same way, it just has a slightly more "modern" look to it."

Love It

Date of Review:  Jan 15, 2005
Review: Just purchased at CVS for $49.99 last week and it is the best cool mist humidifier I have ever had. We use it constantly because our home is very dry and we have a 5 month old. It really is whisper quiet and puts off a ton of mist. Yet it will last...
