Venta LW25 Airwasher

I'm still not sure what to think about this thing after using it for about a year. Does it humidify? It's questionable, maybe more like maintains the humidity levels from dropping too fast. Why do I say this? Because I don't see the humidity levels drop or spike when I'm not using or using the unit....

This humidifier does not disappoint in terms of its ability to increase the humidity in a big space. We have forced air heating that dries out the air every time it blows and this humidifier can actually counter that. But there is a big catch with this humidifier (like with any humidifier): cleaning...

Machine is expensive. I chose it because it was a top recommended model by the NY Times Wirecutter service, it's chief plus being it had to be cleaned only every two weeks. It is strongly suggested to use Venta water additive regularly, and another product every six months for cleaning=added expense...

Thought it worked with regular water, but it comes with a secret formula that means you have to keep giving venta money. reservoir doesn't last long at all here in dry CO. As far as design, the top of the machine is the part that is corded, but the bottom is what you need to refill. This makes for a...

After a week of use with the door mostly closed, this thing only raised the humidity in my 150 sq ft bedroom from 25% to 34% (measured w/hygrometer near device and right outside my bedroom). I wish I got a larger model. I don't know why they lie about the actual square footage these things can handl...

What I don’t like: - It is louder than my $150 misting humidifier. For its price I really expect it to me more quiet. - The indicator lights cannot be turned off. What I do like: - The drum does seem expensive to make. - It’s design does enable low maintenance and the ease of use. - It does rise the...

This thing is a huge plastic box. Very heavy when you fill it with water and noisy at anything above minimum level. On medium, it's audible over the TV and on high, it's downright distracting. Since it's not ultrasonic, you can't tell if it's working. Humidity in the room went up a little, but not s...

Really easy to set up and quiet to use. I'm not sure how effective it is at purifying the air though. Rotating disk stopped rotating after 6mo, company warrenty states 24mo; however, I am unable to find anyone on amazon to connect with. Would recommend the humidifier but buying through company websi...

LW-45 [Update - 12/15/2018] Well, gotta love the glowing reviews (including mine below) of people that reviewed it the first year they had it, and never came back... When we neared the end of our second year, our unit was making a disturbing clicking noise which ended up having the unit relocated ou...

This is our third new unit (second replacement) within 10 days. The first had broken internal plastic parts; the second came with fried electronics. We suggest careful inspection of new units We bought this as a living room replacement for a Vornado "wick" machine that we really liked, but whose mot...
