It's hard to take off. I noticed if after first use.** A: Thank you for your inquiry. This is mineral deposits from your water. As your water is boiled away, the minerals are left behind and solidify on the heating element. We advise cleaning the minerals off by following the descaling instructions that come with the unit, as well as watching this video with easy to follow cleaning instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2ww_O1iwBM. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com. Thank you. **Q: Can you turn off the night light function on this unit?** A: The light cannot be turned off. This lets you know if the unit is running and if it has entered into automatic shut-off mode. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com. Thank you. **Q: DOES IT NEED A FILTER?** A: Thank you for your inquiry. This unit does not require a filter, but we do advise weekly cleaning to keep minerals from building up. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact our consumer relations team by emailing us at SocialSupport@HelenofTroy.com. Thank you. **Q: Does this help in dry stuffy noses and dry throats during the night?** A: Absolutely! I whip this out the second the weather gets dry which is a lot here in New Mexico. I have allergies and it helps with those and helps the pollen in my house fall to the ground. My nose and throat get so dried out taking antihistamines dries me out more but this really helps. It also helps your home to have the humidity in there. I have them everywhere I am and it helps keep our house, walls, etc. from getting to dry and cracking. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some initial quirks (maybe), but what a find! *by on Reviewed in the United States November 5, 2025* There are some changes to the New Vicks Warm Miist Humidifier vs the Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier from years past. From the off, the mist has a strong metallic smell that is somewhat overwhelming which leaves a silver film that covers everything in its path. This film is not noticeable by the naked eye. I discovered it during routine cleaning a couple of hours after the device was being used. Let me explain. One of the items use frequently is an aluminum baking pan with an attachable coated baking rack. Prior to using the humidifier, I washed the baking pan, made and cooked some biscuits. The humidifier was delivered. I was excited and anxious to get it up and running so I left the kitchen to read the complete instructions to setup my new humidifier. Fun fact: I grew up with, raised a family, with and passed on the Vicks family of products to my families. Long story short, Vicks products is/has been a staple in my life so purchasing the item was a no brainer.Still excited with a huge smile on my face, my new Vicks humidifier was up and running. Spewing a strong stream of warm mist. I immediately noticed the metallic smell which was overwhelming! I immediately vented the area by opening my windows and turned on a floor Fan. This helped elevate some of the smell. Oh, forgot to mention that I live in a small one bedroom apartment. So charming. NOTE: I thought that this metallic smell may have been a due to manufacturing and would dissipate. It did after the second water refill.After dealing with the humidifiers smell, I went back to the kitchen to finish cooking. The biscuits completed baking and was placed in a covered warmer. I stated wiping down my baking pan and noticed a grey film covering my baking pan. My baking pan sat on the counter for while I opened the windows to help with the smell. The biscuits had already been placed in the warmer. I threw them out anyway for safety and made more later. After cleaning the pan, I noticed the same film on my kitchen counter other pieces of furniture. I cleaned everything thoroughly (it was cleaning day anyways). Incentive to deep clean. NOT TURNED OFF BY THIS! COME ON, THIS IS VICKS! Generations of taking care of the world's allergy safely!!!I turned off the humidifier, cleaned the element with vinegar and tried again. Refilled the reservoir, turned it on. No smell. No grey film. Problem solved. PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT! TAKE THE TIME! (Not yelling! Emphasizing the importance before use) Before plugging in any newly received device! READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!Next, MY humidifier does not automatically shut off with low water level or any water level. I took a nap while humidifier was on. The reservoir had plenty of water in it and the air was comfortable. I used the high setting so the water dissipated quickly. Whe I woke up the display showed a red light and the reservoir was bone dry. The device was still running. The device did not automatically turn off. When I took my nap, I confidently thought, 'In the event the water level drops significantly, the device would automatically shut off, so no worries'! The device DID NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF. Turns out, the automatic turn of is the red indicator light which warns of low water level. I/YOU have to actually turn off and unplug the device then reset the device by letting the device cool down (because of the warm steam feature), refill the reservoir with water, plug it back in and then turn it back on. This is what is considered the automatic shut off and reset. Laughing hysterically! Apologies! I guess actually seeing the low water level isn't sufficient to indicate a water refill is needed. MORE LAUGHTER!! Apologies again. Get this, there is actually the word "reset" on the heating dial. The instructions call it "the reset button". There IS NO RESET BUTTON! So don't waste time looking for one or pressinh the word "reset" on the dial repeatedly!! It is just the word painted/stenciled on the dial. Yes, I pressed the word "reset" repeatedly, as if I would make it so. You can stop Laughing at me now!! Okay keep laughing. So funny!Now to the GOOD BITS. Before I bought my Vicks warm humidifier, I bought an air purifier and cool humidifier (NOT vicks brand, shame on me)! The purifier is actually a nice surprise and works beautifully removing unwanted smells quickly. And once plugged in, after a few seconds (the automatic feature actually works). The device turns on and automatically calculates the configuration and removes unwanted smells quickly. The cool mist DID NOT perform as designed. However, if you lead a calm, stress free life and looking for a change. Get a cool mist humidifier. Your frustration level will soar, giving you the much needed change desired.More Really Good Bits:I SO LOVE this device. In spite of the initial quirks!!! The air is completely free of dryness. I breathe comfortably. I no longer experience dryness in the air, my throat, nasal passages, eyes, fingernail breakage, crunchy hair, dry scalp and more are now nonexistent.Try this device! Buy this device! Take care of this device after purchase and it will love you back!Thanks guys for reading my post! I hope this information is/was helpful for/to you!Katherine ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Little Unit *by on Reviewed in the United States December 5, 2009* I've owned several humidifiers over the years. None last forever and with a warm mist unit after 4-5 years they get pretty skanky and probably should be replaced anyway.The unit is small and stylish as humidifiers go. Does not have an adjustable dial to pick a certain humidity level, but any unit that I had in the past, I've just set the dial on the highest setting and left it there so having a dial is not a necessary option in my opinion.This unit has two settings, low and high. Low is as quiet as any unit I've used. On the high setting it does make a little more noise than any other unit I've owned. It is not obnoxiously loud but if you have it right next to your bed and you are a light sleeper, you'd either want it on low or this may not be the unit for you. Having said that, on the high setting this unit does push out a lot of moisture. There is the possibility it is louder because it pushes out more moisture than other units but I have no way to know for sure.A big plus for me is it is extremely easy to clean. The heating element is easy to get to and shaped in a way so you can easily get to every inch of it to get it clean.Bottom line, for the price this is a great little machine. If it breaks down in 2 years, I'll buy another and if that one breaks down in two years, I'll still have saved money over a more expensive machine that lasts four years. I've never used one more than that long anyway. Save your money and buy this.Water lasts as rated. On high it will last just over 12 hours. On low it lasts much longer. I bought two of them and they are both working great. If either breaks down in less than a year, I'll come back and add to this posting to report the problem. If there are no additional add-on postings here from me. Then the machines are working just fine.------------------**Update 10/16/2010**I used two of these last winter to keep my whole house moist. It is worth mentioning that these types of devices are electric hogs. I'm sure it is not just this brand but all warm mist humidifiers are like this. The electric use should be no big surprise as a warm mist humidifier is essentially boiling water the whole time it is turned on, but it would be nice if the manufacture had estimated electric usage on the box. How bad was it? We were running two of these every night at bedtime and turned them off during the day while out of the house. In an average winter month, the electric bill was just as high as it was when running the central AC during the summer. We were running them on high. This winter we will run them on low to see if we get enough humidity and save some money but paying an extra $60-90 a month on electric bills to keep our skin moist throughout the house was a bit much to swallow. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inexpensive, Attractive and Perfect For Keeping Guitars Humidified Properly *by on Reviewed in the United States February 17, 2017* I live in the northeast US and winter is too dry on acoustic guitars. Yes, a sound-hole humidifier takes care of the body, but what about the neck? Since moving east, I have noticed that the guitars I keep out to practice on have required truss-rod adjustments and some fret-reduction during the winters; due to the heating required here. As the humidity decreases there is a real danger of warped necks, popped frets and the attendant buzzing. My practice room is about 15 X 20 feed (approx 300 sq ft.) and it's too much hassle to constantly get the guitars out of their cases to play throughout the day. A humidifier should be able to resolve the issue, but which one is best?As I began to research the issue, I soon discovered that there is much variability in price and quality. After many hours researching the reviews, I decided on this simple unit as a "proof of concept" experiment. If this can keep the humidity around 45% I will consider the trial a success. There are many more expensive units, but the reviews indicate that, to a certain extent, all of them are flawed in one, often several ways: Leaks, cleaning inconvenience, noise, lack of accurate built-in humidity-control, and quality control issues from assembly errors to short life-times. Rats! What to do?Fortunately, this unit is simple to operate, is very quiet and fairly clean during use, provided I use distilled water. As I already steam-distill my own water for health reasons, this is not a problem for me. Certainly, there will still be some clean-up to do, but I'm willing to perform the necessary things to ensure the health and longevity of my instruments. Here are my results so far.A gallon of distilled water lasts about three days, as i monitor the humidity and have found that intermittent operation (after an initial hydration of the room and furnishings) is adequate to keep the humidity between 35-45 percent. This does require a digital hygrometer, but as I already own one of those, it is not a problem to monitor the relative humidity throughout the day. My routine is to turn the unit on low for a few hours, then off again for a few hours. If measurement indicates a lowering humidity, I turn the unit on for half an hour and the humidity levels stabilize within that period. In the evening I run it for a few hours before retiring and the humidity levels stay relatively constant throughout the night as our exhalation adds to whatever is already present in the room. There is no easy way to maintain humidity levels constant without expensive equipment, and so far I find this unit fulfills my requirements. Since using it, my truss rods have not needed any adjustment, and the guitars stay in-tune.Is it perfect? No. My only gripe is that a small amount of water stays in the well in which the water-container rests. it doesn't leak on the surface it's on (a wide window-sill), but I do monitor it just to be sure. So far, no issues. It would be nice if it had a feature to control it's run-time according to a hygrometer, but reviews of units with this feature indicate it fails after a short time. It's an added plus that the increased humidity benefits our noses as well; they are not as dried-out and breathing is easier.It is a pain to have to do this over the winter, but I cherish my instruments as friends, and need them to be stable for when I perform. When I need to travel I simply place the guitars in a case with their body-humidifier and they stay closed until opened on stage. No problems so far.Now that I know this system works, I will keep searching for a reliable automated unit, and give this one to my son to keep his guitars humidified in his room. All in all, I'm quite pleased with the Vicks unit. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier - Air Humidifier for Bedroom, Home & Large Room, Baby, Kids and Adults Soothing Steam Vaporizer for Cough, Congestion, Allergies & Dry Air, VapoSteam Compatible - Vicks VapoSteam Medicated Liquid with Camphor, a Cough Suppressant, Helps Relieve Coughing, for Use in Vicks Vaporizers and Humidifiers, FSA and HSA Eligible, 8 Oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/1142694-warm-mist-humidifier-for-medium-to-large-rooms-1-gal](https://www.desertcart.is/products/1142694-warm-mist-humidifier-for-medium-to-large-rooms-1-gal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-10-04*
