Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hunter 33252 CareFree Humidifier Plus with Exclusive Nite Glo Night Light
Customer Review: NO AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF!
Summary: 3 Stars
I just purchased the 33252 model today, so can't comment on its performance. However the Amazon description is wrong: this model DOES NOT have the Automatic Shutoff feature. You have to get the 3.5 gallon model to get that (according to the Hunter site.)Customer Review: Doesn't Last - Noisy
Summary: 2 Stars
I was disappointed with this product. I had owned a Honeywell prior to buying this and was looking for a unit that did not require a replacement filter.
The first thing I noticed was this unit took twice as long to humidify the room as my Honeywell. It was much less efficient at getting the water into the air.
Secondly, it was noisy and started to rattle approx. 3 months after purchase. We use it only in the 3 months of winter.
The next season I immediately noticed that it was really noisy. Long story short - the cheap little motor is shot.
I threw this one in the trash and I'm back to using Honeywell humidifiers. The big difference is, Honeywell uses drum style fans which move air more quietly and much faster.
Hope this helps.
Customer Review: not durable
Summary: 2 Stars
bought this item because of the "permanent" wick. it works fine although it doesn't evaporate nearly as much as the throw-away paper wicks. (it will smell after a while but responds to soaking with mild bleach). the problem I have with this machine is the fragile fan. after less than a full winter season of use, the fan died on me, and I had to get it replaced by hunter. after putting it away for the summer, the fan again died after less than two months of use. now, I use this unit almost continuously but I would have expected hunter to make better fans. stay away from this model if you use your humidifier for more than a few hours a day.Customer Review: Multiple uses except that of a humidifier.

This product has mulitple uses. This product is for you if you a)want a fancy fan with a night light, b) need to water your floor every so often, c) are deaf and don't mind the loud sound. If you're actually looking for a humidifier then look somewhere else. We've had this humidifier for three weeks and not once has it ever reached the desired humidity. You'll have better luck finding bigfoot than ever seeing the green humidity level indicator light up.Customer Review: Bad Fan
Summary: 2 Stars
The fan started to make a loud kicking sound within a day of use. Returned and got a new one and the fan started to make the same sound with in 2 days of use. This is not a durable unit. I am going back to ultrasonic with ion exchange cartridge.
