With this humidifier I do not have that worry that I had with so many before when I would leave it on when going to sleep. This one seems to automatically turn itself off with not problem to the system itself, quite a relief. Also, filling it up is pretty easy. I pull out the top part/bucket, flip it upside down, open it up, fill it up. Although, I could see somebody who doesn't own a bathtub having difficulties fitting this into the sink. If this was true, then you would just have to fill it up like most other humidifiers by taking water to it and filling it.
There was a complaint about the direction in another review. Yes, it does shoot the moisture straight up into the air. But if your room has a fan (mine is a ceiling) going then this shouldn't be a problem. Do be careful not to leave it at full speed in a closed room for extended periods without a fan. I have done this a few times when leaving for work and noticed that there was some dampness surrounding it when I got home. Nothing severe, it evaporated within a few minutes of me turning the machine off.
I am very, very thankful for this humidifier. Especially since it doesn't use filters so mold isn't a very big issue. With this one I will wipe it out every month or so, no big deal.

I like the humidity output, it works great. It's not the quitest humidifier I've owned. I currently have two of these, and the problem I'm experiencing with both, is that some black residue builds up in the reservoir. I have poured some vinegar in the tank each time I fill it but it doesn't do the trick. any ideas out there? (HELP PLEASE)

Purchased this unit for the baby's room. Water vapor output is very good, strong and visible, especially when turned on High. The only problem is that the vapor settles around the unit so you will have a wet floor/carpet surrounding the unit IF you have it set on High. At mid-setting, very little to no moisture on floor and vapor output is still decent. Just be aware of this, I definitely would not place it on a table because of this. Good unit, would still recommend.
Honest reviews on Jarden Consumer Heater SUL496-UM Sunbeam Ultrasonic Humidifier
I purchased this unit at Walmart (Ohio) for $42.oo. I also bought a bag of tablets to put in the tank, and they cost $3 and will last atleast a couple months I am sure. I love how quiet this tank is and the unit itself is very beautiful, not bulky like some of the machines that just look like a big medical machine. I really like the sleek look of this one. It says it is for a medium room and I think that is accurate. I put this in my livingroom during the day, which is large, and it's not quite enough to eliminate static 100%. I do notice my nose doesn't burn anymore and there is no static in my (or families) hair anymore, but I did get shocked /w static electricity when I went to change settings on my ceiling fan today, lol. My fault because it says medium roon, not large (or extra large). At night, I carry this into my bedroom and the room is small and this is more than enough misting and I am hoping that my scalp will not be so itchy in time. That and static and burning nose are main reasons I bought it. I love that I can SEE alot of mist coming from this! If I can't see it, I never think they work. I'm optimistic about this unit and I just purchased it recently. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING with all cool mist humidifiers is DO NOT BE LAZY when it comes to reading the maintenence requirements. As far as I know, this one only requires a good emptying every other day, and wipe it dry as best you can, and ONCE A WEEK, soak the inner tank with a mild bleach and water mix. I think this part is very important in eliminating the potential for bacteria. Overall, i give this unit 4 stars, as a new user. The only con so far would be the one others have mentioned about not having a directional nozzle to point air. 75% of the time, I would probably have it pointing straight up into the air anyways. Good buy!

I like this humidifier. It shoots the vapor up fairly high, and is easy to operate. It also runs quiet so does not disturb your sleep.
