I would buy for small space.
3/27/2013
Pros
Auto shut off
cute design
Easy to fill
Quiet
Cons
Extra Cost For Filters
Best Uses
Child's Room
Small room
Comment:
It works well for the money. I run it on a medium setting and the room stays at 36%; on high setting, 46%. I have to refill every few days (depending on how high the setting). I have to buy filters because I use hard water. Over all, I think this is a good product if you are looking for temporary humidification, or if you don't mind refilling.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pros
Great Output
Cons
Annoying
Best Uses
Any
Comment:
This is a great unit, with an interesting design. However, it gurgles like mad when set on medium to high settings. I'm a sensitive sleeper, and the gurgling wasn't like a pleasant stream, it was simply annoying. For most, this will not be a problem.
How long have you owned it:
