Overview

Not an ultrasonic mister, the Vornado unit is an evaporative humidifier that pulls dry air through wet wicking filters with a fan. Moist air leaves with no droplets, and a built in humidistat controls the level.

Evaporative design avoids the mineral dust and wet surfaces of ultrasonic units, and capacity covers large rooms. The fan makes sound, and wicks are a recurring consumable.

Who it's for

Large bedrooms, living rooms and homes with hard water suit evaporative humidification. People who want silent operation or no filter replacements should look at other types.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Large room coverage
  • No visible mist or wet surfaces
  • Three fan speeds
  • Leak-proof removable tanks
Cons
  • Wicking filters must be replaced
  • Fan noise not listed
  • US voltage only

Performance notes

Fan driven airflow through wet wicks evaporates water, so output rises in dry air and falls as the room approaches the set humidity. That self limiting effect reduces over humidifying. Wick condition governs output over time.
