Promising review: "I have been using the Levoit Dual 150 Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier for two full years and it has been the BEST humidifier I have ever owned, and I've had quite a few! I strongly recommend using this humidifier in your bedroom EVERY night, especially during the winter months when dry indoor air is a contributor for sinus problems and dry throats. The unit is nice and quiet, and very reliable, I merely fill it up every morning in the winter and then I just let it run without ever turning it off!! I am convinced this has been the best product I've ever bought on Amazon. Thanks Levoit!" ken2020

Promising review: "This humidifier has a lot of great features! It holds a lot of water so you dont have to constantly refill it. The remote is handy and easy to use. Its quiet, and the different colors are really cool. It gets the job done. Here in the northeast it gets very dry in the winter when the heat is on, and that causes problems with my eyes. This humidifier has eliminated that problem." Anna Safir

Promising review: "I absolutely love this humidifier! I now own two of them. One in my daughters room and one in mine. We especially need these during winter around here. They are a life saver for dry skin. I replaced another one that worked fine because this one is just so easy to use and fill. I am so happy that I can just lift the lid and add more water. My old one had to be flipped upside down and made a mess everywhere. It displays what level humidity you want the room to be and turns on and off accordingly. We usually run them for the 8-10 hours over night. I dont have to fill this one as often either because it isnt constantly running and making my room too humid. It also has a pretty light running up the side that you can change the color of. I love everything about this humidifier and would purchase again and recommend to anyone. Please make sure to follow the directions and remove all of the packing tape and foam." Denise L Tonetti

Promising review: "The winter air is very dry and that is not good for our nine parrots or us. We bought this humidifier based on others' recommendations and since we bought our 1st, we have bought 2 more. The moisture in the air is almost instantly noticable. The birds are more calm (their skin gets dry also under all those feathers). Absolutely recommend this machine on functionality alone, but the remote features are amazing also!!!!" Faith I

Promising review: "My skin gets so dry in the winter so I wanted a humidifier but HATE how they look.. this one is perfect as it still does the job- and does it well- while looking cute on my bookshelf! It doesn't take up much space but still will run for hours on end which is perfect for over night! There is a little bit of noise but just the fainted almost mist sounding noise that you can't even here from ten feet away" Amazon Customer
