Customer Reviews of Plaston International Corp 32873 Digital Air Washer & Humidifier #2055d
Customer Review: Not enough humidification for the dollar and decibel
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this unit hoping that it could keep the humidity in my small Colorado apartment someplace around 50%, to keep my instruments happy and healthy. I figured this might be worth the price if it worked, but unfortunately, the unit went back to the store the second day I had it. On day one, I left it running on the lower, quiet overnight in a largely sealed apartment, and according to both the built-in hygrometer and a separate one, it wasn't even able to hit 40% humidity. Unfortunately, the stronger setting is also as loud as my dishwasher, and thus, not suitable for constant use. I'm also concerned about cleaning it, and frankly, if I'm going to pay $300 (I used a coupon), I'm going to expect a great deal more results.
If the air cleaner approach is required, I'd recommend the Venta line, as I used their middle-of-the-line model without problems for around a year. It too can't reliably put out enough humidity to control humidity changes, and they lack any kind of hygrometer switch, but they're much more quiet, and the model I had was nearly $150 cheaper.
So, nice try, Air-O-Swiss, but a machine this expensive is going to need to be a great deal quieter and effective.
