Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier

I live in a very dry (think desert!) area and having enough moisture in the air, especially during the colder parts of the season, is very difficult.  I found the Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier while browsing through Amazon and was instantly captivated by the cool shape and sleek design.

The looks of this humidifier might be what pulls you in, but it's the operation and functionality that will keep you coming back for more.  I couldn't be happier with the operation and look of the device. 

• It's quiet! none of that noisy stuff that keeps you from getting to sleep
• Design is just awesome, I love the way it looks, I got the cool blue model
• The machine is also simple to clean, watch the video and read the directions if you have trouble
• Most people should use distilled water to help keep the machine functioning better and longer (and keep the quality of the results high)
• It works.  I've already noticed a huge difference in moisture around the house.  
• I'm using it to cover one room, if you want something for the whole house I think you'll need more than one of these things!

Aside from how well it operates, I just can't get over how cool the thing looks.  Pick a color you like and you will absolutely love the design.  The white didn't really go with my room or style, but I love the way the blue looks!  Pick whatever is best suited to your own home and tastes.  The performance of the humidifier will speak for itself, regardless of the color.

Almost all of the problems I've read about are due to poor operation of the device.  Read the instructions people!.  There is a reason why they printed them in the first place...sheesh.

The most common complaints are from dust building up too quickly and from people who just aren't using distilled or filtered water for the machine.  This is really important for the maintenance and you can't skip this step!

If the machine is making noises, turn the setting on the power down from full.  It will run for almost 12 hours and won't make any noise until it gets very low.  

Leaking shouldn't happen when you get everything together snugly and there are no gaps between connections.  

Most importantly, follow the cleaning routine outlined in the manual.  Proper cleaning is needed to avoid bacteria in sitting water.  Follow all these instructions and enjoy your Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier!
