Summary: 5 Stars
We live in northeast Florida - where we have some cold winter days (many more this year than I would have liked). When we moved here from Miami 15 years ago - the first winter it was pretty cold and dry - and we bought 2 Hunter humidifiers - one for the kitchen/dining/living area - another for the master bedroom. They usually lasted 2-4 years - then had various failures (although never any leaks) - and I had always treated them as "necessary disposables" like one of the posters below.
I bought my father one of these a couple of years ago when he moved here - and also bought a new one for us. Now my father is 92 - and the fan on his went nuts this year - so loud I couldn't hear him talking on the phone. Having a lot of time on his hands - he called Hunter - and it replaced his still on-warranty unit for him free of charge. Then the fan on ours went nuts a few weeks later. Had to turn up the TV in the kitchen full blast to hear it while the humidifier fan was running on "low". Called Hunter a couple of weeks ago. Couldn't get through immediately because the place was closed for a day or two during the recent southern snow storm. But when it opened - and I got through and described the problem - it offered to send me a free replacement. It didn't have this exact model in stock (guess this has been a great winter to sell humidifiers) - and it gave me the choice of waiting for when this one would be available (early April) - or getting the cheaper model that doesn't have a digital humidistat. Since we don't need humidifiers in April in Florida - I opted to get the cheaper model as a replacement. Was sent by Fedex Ground - and arrived in 2 days. And the new one is quiet as a mouse.
Note that my experience dealing with the company was extremely pleasant. And that when you get a warranty replacement for a fan problem - you have to send back the power cord from the fan unit and the product ID tag (to keep you honest). But you can save all the other parts and reuse them in similar/identical units. Anyway - I can't say these humidifiers have been as reliable as my Hunter fans (in use for about 15 years - still working perfectly without any maintenance except for cleaning blades) - but the company's attitude about its warranty merits 5 stars.
FWIW - I'm not sure these units would work as "whole house" units in a 3000 sf house like ours in colder winter climates. But they're fine where we live. Even when our nightly temps fell below 30 for 6 nights in a row (kind of unusual for us - we had to go out every morning with pots of boiling water to defrost out bird baths!). One is certainly plenty for a large master bedroom space (place most people will probably use it). And for those of you up north who complain about the degree of humidification - you have to remember that the hotter air is - the more humidity it can absorb. If you keep your thermostat at 65 - you'll get a lot less humidity than you will if the temp is 72 (our winter temp). To avoid spending a fortune on heating - I recommend a zoned HVAC system (we have 4 zones in our house). That way - you can have comfortable bedrooms at night - and not waste a ton of money heating areas you don't use when you're asleep.
