VicksVUL505 Cool Mist Personal Humidifier

It’s is warmth and easy to use product. You can clean easily. Only small disadvantage I observed is be little careful once you fill the water. Slight chance that water may spill out . But that’s only time between filling and fixing on the base . Rest all good. Kept in my kids room

Firstly, it isn't actually from Vicks, they just recommend it.Positives (a bit forced):-Seems to have solved my dry skin-Quiet unlike any fan-Small and compact-Isn't too difficult to clean-Works just as any humidifier should-Is cool mist as advertisedNegatives:-When it's on, it has that normal ultrasonic sound, but it has a drip drip sound too which is odd, but isn't too loud so falling asleep is fine.-The way the top half container is designed is poor. There is no latching mechanism to the bottom half, so the top half is just loose. So when you do carry it, (it's supposed to advertised as portable?) you have to carry it with your fingers at the base your thumbs to secure the top half.-The bottom carries some water so if it does have any, and you tilt it, it will leak.-I thought it would be battery powered but it has to be powered by the mains (maybe that's just on me)-They keep talking about how you should keep the room between 40% and 60% humidity but the humidifier itself doesn't have any sensor of that sort; instead they want you to purchase an actual sensorAll in all, it works, and isn't too bothersome, and so that's fine for me at least. It does seem like my dry skin is much better which is good.

My 5 year old was getting regular nosebleeds in the night especially when the weather was hot and she slept with the fan circulating dry air around the room.Since using this she has not had any nosebleeds at all as the air becomes more humid and is less irritating to the nostrils. She has also used the menthol vapopads when she has had a stuffy nose due to cold symptoms and she has definitely sleeps better through the night.The menthol smell is not particularly strong though which for a kid is probably a good thing, however it might not be much use for an adult unless you sleep with it right next to your bed on a bedside table.With a full tank of water, it will last for about 4-5 hours. I wish I got the larger one so that I wouldn’t have to fill it up again in the middle of the night. When it runs out of water, it automatically stops and the green light turns red. I’ve left it on the red light until morning and it’s not been a problem.Cleaning can be a pain in the backside as you have to do it weekly to prevent mould build up. It would be better if it we’re easy to open up the tank completely to empty and clean but all you can do is let the water drain from the port - inevitably not all of the water will come out.

Wouldn’t give it the 1 star. Disappointing product not worth £24 cheaper at Costco. Additionally the product only last 2/3 hours and there is no scent of the vicks tab.

Absolutely a must have I can’t believe the difference in my child’s sleep he has a cold and blocked nose was waking him up to 15 times a night! Fist night with this and one! Only woke twice for a bottle! I will never be without one now

The humidifier part works well, but the vapour tablet door fails to close effectively. The item was purchased in 2021. It has just stopped working completely last month. No idea why. Will be buying an alternative replacement.

Brill really helped my daughter

Bought for our baby who has been congested, it was easy to put together and makes very little noise. Seems to be working for our baby, will continue to use.
