Kaz Health Mist Quiet Operation Cool Mist Humidifier, 4100

Kaz humidifier - Great!
I buy these humidifiers because they are easy to clean & maintain, and they broadcast a nice mist.

There are no gooey-feeling in-the-water-filters to clean or replace. There is one little filter that cleans the air before it enters into the humidifier, but other than that there is none. It doesn't touch the water.

I have used these humidifiers to put in about 3 drops of essential oil to broadcast through my home daily. They work wonderfully. They are much cheaper than the expensive machines made for essential oils & I think they do a better job.

I have been using these humidifiers for years. I hope they don't stop making them!

Love the simplicity of using this humidifier
By error, I received Kaz 4100 instead of Kaz4100K. The earlier model that I received lacked on and off switch, adjustable grill and two speeds. Nevertheless, I love the simplicity of this humidifier: filling machine from top without having to remove a tank, very very quiet and complete instructions such as "break in characteristics, maximum output will not be reached until unit has been used several times." Thnk you, Kaz!

Good Output Poor Design
My 15 month old daughter has a lot of sinus issues, so it's imperative that we run a humidifier in her room every night. The first humidifier I bought for her was the Kaz/Vicks 4100 impeller humidifier, and while I'll admit that it puts out a lot of mist and humidifies the room very well, it's nearly impossible to clean fully.

My biggest complaint is that a lot of the spinning and moving parts are encased in a plastic housing that you can't get into, and when I finally unscrewed the housing, the inside was caked in pink mold. Now, when I say I "unscrewed" the housing, I don't mean with a normal screwdriver. The screws are a special shape to keep people from being able to unscrew them and open the housing. Luckily, I had the appropriate screw tip in my toolbox, but when I opened up the housing, I was horrified by what I saw. This product is designed in such a way as to limit your ability to access and clean the most vital moving parts, so it is effectively a mold...
