Stadler Form Fred F ‐ 005EH / F-008EH / F-014H / F-015RH

Advantages: Steam, quiet, well moisturized

Disadvantages: It is not very convenient to pour water, the heating element must be well cleaned.

Comment: It was bought for some stock for 3000. He worked for about 2 years, after which he died ingloriously - the fasteners burst, responsible for pulling the heating element to the case, burst. Water began to flow. They even refused to repair it for money. But for 2 years there were no complaints against him. If he had cost 3,000, he would have taken one more without hesitation. And so I will look for an alternative, given the "survivability" of the attachment (whoever is interested - can remove the 2 lower covers and see what is done on the snot)

Advantages: perfectly moisturizes, minimum noise, excellent design, quite comfortable operation

Disadvantages: short cord ...

Comment: great thing. value for money. I have been using for more than a year, because of the quality of the water, I had to clean it, then I started to fill in the filtered, it works perfectly, I fell off the piano a couple of times, the child touched the cord, the height was more than a meter, it survived ... .. there is a kettle of this company, it also works more than a year, I really like the conciseness of the style, I'm going to buy a cleaner Victor, I hope it will not disappoint .....

Advantages: Works fine. I would not say that it makes noise and gurgles strongly. It is heard of course at night, but it is not loud and does not interfere.
Very cool, that if you hurt him, he will not scald. Firstly, it is flat with respect to the floor, so that it cannot be turned over by any touching, and secondly, the water tank is tightly closed.
I am glad that you can choose one of two powers for humidification. After all, when it is cold outside the window (slightly below zero), the humidity rises to a maximum of 40%, if you leave it for a long time and try not to let the steam through the doors. And then everything starts to condense on the windows, so it makes no sense to soar much. You put on a less powerful mode - and it supports and is generally almost inaudible.

Disadvantages: Well, very expensive for such a device.
The room is really heated. That is suitable when the heating system can not cope if it is cold, and so it overheats the room. We often left the window open, but of course the humidity does not rise above 30%. But it is still better than without him much, and no longer hot especially.

Comment: Unfortunately, the choice among steam humidifiers is now quite small. I had to take this, although very expensive.
They write that it is inconvenient to fill in water and it spills when the container is turned over. Strange, everything is convenient for me, and when turning over nothing spills. I still carry the lid down. The valve does not let water through until you put the container on the device body.
With scum problems for 3 months was not. The water here in St. Petersburg is really soft, but I have never cleaned it from scale, and did not see any particular problems because of it.

Advantages: Still, it moisturizes normally - I thought after the ultrasound it would be completely worse .. To wash the scale under the ball and the ball itself is light with citric acid.

Disadvantages: You can make the top and convex - to increase the volume for water, anyway already took place. Can not see how much water is left. It would be nice if the power cord was disconnected from the appliance — it interferes when rinsing and draining water with scum.

Comment: While satisfied. Of the steam ones, I have not yet found competitors in quality .. for this price ..

Advantages: - elementary in operation
- it works quietly, at first it even seems that it does not work at all, but it is not
- the case materials were pleasantly pleased, though because of the flat design sometimes the problem is with where to put

Disadvantages: - I had to wait a long time - 4 days, until the humidity finally rose. So much so that the cover from the bed burst, well, and so everything suits
- scum. Well, where to get away from it, herachish vinegar and norms, I don’t know how long he will survive so true

Comment: PS: before that there was an u-sound unit. This is something. “Something” in a negative sense. Ultrasound breaks up the water into a mist. Fog is known to be worth it, that is, it must be driven by the wind. As a result, when you turn on the ultrasound unit, its “fog” comes out of the neck, and instantly falls, I would even say it falls off, that's all. It was necessary to literally put it in front of the face, so that there was at least some effect, of course nice, but only within a radius of 1 square meter from it. For this reason, chose steam, now in the ORANGE ROOM, to which I am very pleased.

Advantages: Efficiency of moistening, appearance, simplicity in operation.

Disadvantages: Not

Comment: In previous reviews, they wrote about the leakage of water during installation of the tank in the humidifier, noise, gurgling, I think this is not a disadvantage, but minor inconvenience, because You can change it neatly, if necessary, it is easy to wipe it with a cloth, no-noise !!! gurgle-sorry, but this is the mechanism of its work — evaporation of moisture due to boiling water)))
the most important thing in his work is the result! they bought after the birth of the child-the peeling and dryness of the skin disappeared for a minimum period of time, although before this cream and oil did not help, they forgot about the stuffy nose and dryness, so I recommend 100%

Advantages: 1. The principle of evaporation is steam, not ultrasonic, due to which the steam is sterile from germs and deprived of salt (accordingly, it is not necessary to fight white bloom on furniture and in general to breathe mineral dust) and not to undergo ultrasonic radiation.
2. Moisturizing efficiency. In both modes of intensity.
3. It works very quietly, with very sensitive sleep I leave it to work all night and it does not interfere at all.
4. High-quality assembly and good plastic.
5. Easy to use, replace water and manage.
6. The presence of a hygrostat - the device turns off when it reaches the desired degree of moisture.
7. Wonderful design, looks cool, attracts the attention of guests and pleases the eye. As Sergey wrote in one of the previous reviews - it looks like a cute pet :)

Disadvantages: 1. There is no graduation in units of humidity measurement on the hygrostat lever, only points. But this is an inconsequential drawback, as a comfortable level quickly becomes clear by experience.
2. Krupnovat. But for me this is not a fundamental criterion, as probably for many. But thanks to the size it is quiet.
3. A little expensive. Although I absolutely do not regret buying, it seems to me that such a device can cost less. But for the sake of such quality, in principle, it is not a pity to give this amount.

Comment: A good, high-quality, efficient device with a fun design. One of the few, if not the only currently available steam type humidifier with a hygrostat.Due to this, it is impossible to re-moisten the room, and you can safely leave the humidifier to work for a long time, it will maintain the desired humidity. I do not know why some in the reviews are dissatisfied with the effect of the “bath”, apparently did not understand the management, although it is very simple and understandable. "Bath" can easily be avoided by turning the lever.
The steam coming out of it is quite warm and it seems to me that, in general, the device still heats the room a little, but not very much.
In general, I am very pleased with the acquisition and recommend such a device.
The only thing that didn’t like a bit was an error in the manual booklet. It says: "300W power - water consumption 230g / hour, 150W - consumption 240g / hour." This is clearly contrary to common sense and the laws of physics. By the way, the number 150 is printed on a small piece of paper and sticks a figure of 200W. Somehow unprofessionally, they did a manual .. Probably the point is the difficulty of translating from Chinese. Otherwise, everything is done extremely qualitatively: from the device itself to packaging. There are no complaints about the device itself :)

Advantages: the main one is its type, it is steam, not u-sound. Stylish. high quality assembled. And kind of reliable. Yes, still easy to handle.

Disadvantages: water supply ...

Comment: Since at present the choice between steam humidifiers is very small (99% are y-sound and 0.1% are of natural type), there was not much to choose. So for example in M-video was just him, all the rest - u-sound. U-sound for obvious reasons, and the gift is not needed. So chose it. Of course, like everyone of this size and power, his strength is enough to create a comfortable environment in a relatively small confined space, for example, a 15m2 room with a tightly closed window and door. 50 percent will beat up the hour for 3 in the "turbo" mode. if you have a studio apartment (say 40 m2), and there is no draft in it, then the maximum that it can do is to raise the humidity by 7-10% (and it will be necessary to refill the water every 8 hours). In short, the thing is nice and stylish, but it turned out to be rather weak even for a one-room apartment. I will take more powerful and with a large supply of water. um, if I find of course this on sale. =)

Advantages: Silent. We turn on the night where we sleep with the child. Conveniently to fill in water - quick-detachable plastic capacity with a stopper. Water lasts about a day at first speed and at an average level of moisture (about 60%).

Disadvantages: Directly at the exit of steam is hot, well, about 80 degrees. Passing by or being near it is impossible to get burned. Not that temperature to get hurt. Just hot) - In general, it is in all steam humidifiers so. Still, overall - you will not put it on a narrow shelf - round and rather big. Most did not like the fact that the humidity control knob without numbers, more or less.

Comment: ) Design - of course you don’t argue about tastes. But as a man I liked it more in life than in pictures. I bought white, it looks ORIGINAL. Flying saucer))) Bought at 50% discount for 3000 + 500 shipping. I think this is his price. 6000 - brute force on the humidifier in principle. The room gets warm when it works - because it is steam. Ultrasonic, for reference - cools. We also bought it because there is no scale everywhere from the steam humidifier - it really isn’t. Normal apparatus.

Advantages: performs its function, beautiful, comfortable

Disadvantages: I have not found

Comment: really moisturizes, the volume of the tank suits me ... for half a day or night is enough, for 3-4 hours it raises humidity by 10-20 percent ... that's fine! .. while the hygrometer is at the end of the room, and Fred is in the middle . It is convenient to fill the water .... what else is needed from the humidifier, especially since you cannot find steam rooms now.
