Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Air-O-Swiss AIR-O-SWISS 7145 Ultrasonic Humidifier
Customer Review: Perfect Buy
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought this humidifier after reading all the review about it. It lived up to its positive rep. Had the unit about two weeks and its worked great. Winter always is dry where I live and this year I havent woken up with a head ache from it being so dry. The unit is very quiet, only the fan on the bottom makes a hum, and at half fan setting a tank of water lasts all night and most of the day.
Seemed to be some confusion in some of the other reviews as to what the double dials are for so Ill elaborate. Bottom dial controls the fan and how much vapor is blown out of the unit. The top dial controls how humid the unit makes the room. It senses when the room has reached that humidity and cuts the vaporizer. The other day with the door closed to the room I noticed that the unit was on but nothing was coming out and I turned the top dial and it kicked back in again so it does work.
If you're thinking of buying a humidifier, this is your one.
Customer Review: Works well!
Summary: 4 Stars
Pros:
- produces enough moisture even for a large room
- compact and quiet
- pretty easy to use
Cons:
- tank is kinda small, on max setting last about 8 hours
- humidistat does not appear to work very well on my unit (not a big deal, i just use the mist control instead)
- kinda expensive to operate (it is energy efficient, but $40+ for silver stick and demoralization cartridge)
- filling the tank could be easier, there is no handle to hold it while filling, it does not stand well on its own upside down, also the condensation drips a little every time you remove it
I am pretty happy with the unit overall and would recommend it! Works much better than other units that I've used in the past.
Customer Review: Great humidifier, Great Value!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased the cool mist ultrasonic humidifier because my apartment gets so dry in the winter time. I already tried one of those other humidifiers that works by a fan blowing up against a filter that absorbs water from a tank. Unfortunately that humidifier was more trouble than it was worth; it required constant cleaning, made too much noise, and really didn't humidify the room as well as it could have.
I was pleasantly surprised by this specific humidifier! It was silent, sent out a visible fog of water particles, and efficiently went through an entire tank of water. In just one night of usage I was already breathing easier, felt my skin rejuvenated, and slept better. I would recommend this humidifier to anyone.
Customer Review: So Quiet
Summary: 4 Stars
My mission was to find a humidifier that I could leave on at night when I go to sleep (I'm a musician so I'm extremely sensitive to noise). After trying a couple of 'super-silent' humidifiers that I ended up returning, I was very happy when I received this one - this one really IS 'super-silent'.
It's a simple cold-mist humidifier. Looks cute, compact and easy to clean (it even has a tiny cleaning brush attached to the base unit). It's a bit pricey for what it can do but If you're looking for a silent humidifier, this is the one.
Customer Review: Works really well
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had it for a year and only need it during the winter, so it may have had roughly 6+ months of usage total.
I've had no trouble with it so far.
The silver antibacterial strip was doing fine until just now when I noticed black fuzz growing in the water and around the ultrasonic vibrator at the bottom (where the mist comes out of). Up until this time, I'd done nothing to the water to prevent it and never descaled it, so I consider to be really good vs other humidifiers I've had.
