Hunter 33202 Carefree Humidifier Plus Review

I thought this humidifier sounded perfect--no filters, low noise, yearly cleaning.What a disappointment.It sounds like a constant running faucet and on any setting other than low, it sounds like industrial equipment.After one month, there wasslime and mildew all over the inside.I would never recommend it.

Product Description:
Equipped with a filter that never needs to be replaced, Hunter's Carefree, cool-mist humidifier means low maintenance and optimal humidity levels for happier noses, fewer colds, healthy plants, sound musical instruments, and more! The unit's easy-to-fill, tote-away tank snaps on and off for easy transport to the nearest sink. A chic design features contemporary styling and a smaller footprint that takes up less floor space. An exclusive NiteGlo night light casts a soft, blue light when it's time for lights out. And, a separate ON/OFF switch lets the night light glow even when the humidifier is off. The Carefree's exclusive PermaWick filter never needs replacement for cheaper, maintenance-free operation.Hunter included several cleaning enhancements for easy maintenance: Antimicrobial properties hinder the growth of bacteria, mold, and fungi on the PermaWick filter and plastic parts. A special release valve helps eliminate mold by releasing stagnant water. The PermaWick is designed so that water flows from the top of the humidifier down; saturating the entire filter to speed up moisture output and to prevent the buildup of harmful mineral residue. Plus, a dishwasher-safe pan and tank makes cleaning effortless while rounded tank corners wipe dry quickly. To simplify the refilling process, the Carefree comes with an extra large tank opening for quick fills at the bathtub or sink. Best of all, the unit's three-speed fan ensures quiet operation while a radial blower delivers maximum moisture with minimal noise. Hunter covers this humidifier with a limited 5-year warranty.

I've gone though a lot of humidifiers, both hot and cold.Most of them either stop working after a year or two, or get so corroded or mildewed that you have to get rid of them.The Hunter humidifier doesn't corrode or get mildew, you can wash the pieces, especially the Permawick filter in the dishwasher, it lasts over 48 hours of constant running on high (over 72 hours on low), and has a nice little blue light that lights through the water, which gives a nice softening touch.I've now gotten one for each bedroom in my house, and am extremely happy with this product.

I must respond to the previous reviews before I discuss mine. 1st-The same water does not sit in the base the entire time; it cycles through. 2nd-Any water that sits in any location for too long will grow bacteria. That is why they tell you to rinse the machine on a daily basis (as ALL humidifiers recommend). If you let it sit too long, the water will turn brown, but that is due to mineral deposits in the water. Using filtered or distilled water will minimize this, but so will rinsing out the unit on a daily basis. Regardless of the type of water used, the filter will build up deposits, which means it's doing its job. That is why they recommend cleaning the filter and the entire unit on a weekly basis with vinegar. This is nothing unique to this particular unit; all humidifiers will require regular cleaning. 3rd-To rinse the base all you have to do is remove the filters and the reservoir. Nothing too difficult. This will occur with ALL humidifiers. You cannot expect to have a machine that uses water and expect not to have to clean it. Leave some water in a bucket for a few days and see what happens. Moisture left to be will breed bacteria eventually. If you use this unit on a daily basis, rinse and clean it regularly. If you use it occasionally, then make sure it's dry before it sits there for any amount of time. 4th-I have 3 of these units and not one leaks. You probably got a defective one.

MY REVIEW: I purchased 4 other brands of humidifiers before trying and choosing this one. It is the best I have found in a decent price range. I now own 3 in varying sizes for my home. It is very efficient and puts the moisture out very well. This size will run for quite awhile without needing a refill. It is simple to clean; it comes apart easily and the permafilter is nice because you only have to clean it in water and vinegar and not spend $$ on new filters. The fan is louder on high but it is a soothing, constant noise and really much quieter than others I have tried. It works well when sleeping because it is like white noise. Low and medium are pretty quiet and I am able to keep it on medium in my living room even when I'm watching TV or reading. I measure the humidity in my home and these Hunter's really work quite quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this unit!

We bought one of these Hunter humidifiers a few years ago.I liked the big tank, low-maintenance and no consumables (no wicks or filters to buy).The only problem was, as others have mentioned, that often when it switched off, a gallon or more of water would promptly dump onto my floor.I finally called Hunter to complain about it, and I have to say I'm incredibly impressed with their customer service, and with the simple fix (new design for the tray) which appears to fix the problem completely.This is now a very competent humidifier, and we're really happy with it.You won't see a cool plume of water vapor spewing from this unit, but it does work really well, and it's very easy to keep clean (just throw parts of it in the dishwasher, and use vinegar and water to de-calcify the other parts).

For those who are shopping for a humidifier, you first have to decide what's important to you.For me, the ultrasonic ones are a no-go because they spew white powder all over my room (mineral dust from our hard water).The hot steam ones are a no-go because they get all nasty from bacteria, fungi, etc.I don't want to breathe that stuff in.And while the fan is far from silent, we actually like it at night, it's a nice gentle drone that helps lull us to sleep.

Nice job, Hunter, on fixing the original design flaw, and on supporting the product so well.

After several years of service, the filter element in my Hunter humidifier became rather nasty, plus I'm sure it wasn't as effective as when it was new, due to the accumulation of crud from hard water.The new one fit perfectly, and seems to do exactly what it's supposed to do.When this one reaches its end-of-service, I'll buy another, if they're still available.

I run the humidifier all winter to keep my acoustic guitars at the proper humidity.
