Customer Reviews:
Great Styling & Innovative Features - BUT - a deeply flawed approach to humidification... I have purchased many humidifiers over the last 10-15 years as I have chronic sinus problems that are exacerbated by dry winter air. As you research the ratings of these appliances - you see that ALL models from ALL brands have glaring problems in their designs.
I like the styling and feature set of the Bionaire brand - I have purchased 3 in total... the model I liked best is no longer made - but i thought i would give these a try ----- If you have even remotely hard water and if you don't want to be constantly replacing MOLDY wicking elements ----avoid this style of humidifier technology.
They are terrible. And it is not Bionaire's fault - all brands fall prey to the fundamental flaw of this approach to humidity. A wad of paper soaking in water all day/all night. It's a shame because the Galileo remote hygrometer/control unit is very well thought out and the looks of these units are great.
It's just that wicking humidifiers are fundamentally the wrong approach. So until somebody make a wick that is impervious to both mineral deposits AND mold/mildew... don't waste your money. I liked my old warm mist Bionaire and I am considering one again. There is still a scale problem there, but it seems the least annoying of all the humidifier technologies in terms of performance, maintenance and byproducts like mold, white dust or scale.
As for Bionaire - I feel there products are well built, smartly designed, attractive, acceptably quiet, and built to last a long time. I just don't find the wick approach to be at all intelligent. too bad - maybe another model. Will let you know....more info
