Vicks V150

Pros: Inexpensive, works great to relieve and prevent colds

Cons: None for us

The Bottom Line: The Vicks V150 Vaporizer has lowered our heating bills and reduced the number of colds we've had this winter.

Review: We thought we have solved my husband’s snoring problems. But when the weather turned cold and the heat went on it wasn’t long before he was snoring and keeping me up at night. The sleep that I was getting wasn’t restful. I was waking often ...

Pros: Works great for illness, inexpensive, easier to upkeep than cool mist

Cons: Needs salt to work and some cleaning

The Bottom Line: I do recommend this product, it works well and is worth the money.

Review: My husband purchased a Vicks warm steam vaporizer for me when I was pregnant with my third child and very sick, about three years ago. It was very inexpensive, at the time under $10. (They are now somewhat updated from the photo shown here, and cost ...

Pros: So far it has worked great for over 3 years.

Cons: Will have to clean it frequently (depending the use).

Review: I've had this unit for now over 3 years, to clean it; you need to soak the heating unit in fresh water with vinegar (I use white vinegar) this help to dissolve the build up inside the unit, shake it to make sure the build up comes out, sometimes if the ...

Pros: Works fast and is quiet.

Cons: none yet?

Review: I stood at the store perplexed?? cool mist vs warm? I couldn't decide and the sales people didn't know either. SO I went with price!(cheapest of coarse!)$9.95 at Walmart. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it was! I had a cool mist one before very ...

Pros: Within EVERYONE's budget

Cons: Not as long an operation time as stated.

The Bottom Line:

A GREAT humidifier for a SMALL price!

Review: Okay, if you clicked on this review expecting to find info on a Chic-Lit novel involving a hunky guy named Sven and a damsel in distress, rolling around on the soft white sands of a glistening beach, her body pressed against his hard, firm ...

Pros: works well, size, shape, oil well

Cons: night light, black flecks (mineral deposits)

The Bottom Line: This is a great vaporiser/humidifier and I haven't found one in recent years to match it.

Review: I am pretty picky when it comes to humidifiers. I used to have the old '80s vaporiser thing and absolutely loved it - I wish it hadn't been tossed. After three trips (and returns of items) to the local drugstore, I finally settled on the Vick's ...

Pros: Helps my breathing and clears my sinuses

Cons: Its not consistant in steaming. It went from a very strong stream to little puffs.

Review: I love this product when it works. I bought it because I have allergies and its very dry in the winter. What I don't know is why the steam isn't comming out like it used to. Is there a way to clean it? I lost the instructions, if there were any. I would ...

Pros: Easy to use, pleasing sound, and cheap!

Cons: Automatic shut-off did not work, unit gets clogged.

The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this product primarily because of the non-existent automatically shut-off system that it was supposed to have.

Review: I am reviewing the Vick's 1.5 Gallon Humidifier. I had this unit for about 5 months. After a bout of bronchitis and an asthma diagnosis, I thought it would be a good idea to purchase a humidifier. I purchased this specific unit because it was ...

Pros: Cheap, produces steam

Cons: Awkward filling and cleaning, water doesn't last, not kid-friendly

The Bottom Line: Cheap and and a hassle, but good value for the price.

Review: To begin with, the tank is a very wide, very short tank with a 3 inch hole at the top. This makes it very awkward to fill. You can't do it in the sink, you have to do it at the bathtub, unless you plan on carrying the water to the unit. Second, ...

Pros: Simple to use, great price, no filters to buy, water lasts

Cons: Small amount of steam, needs to be cleaned often

Review: I bought this vaporizer because my daughter kept getting colds and I wanted to try and help her congestion. I liked the price (can't beat $20) and the simplicity of the product. The water will last for at least two nights so you don't have to fill it ...
