Can you use it without scent and just have mist come out? I get it's not a humidifier but I think it would be relaxing. I am allergic to scents:(

Yes, but it wouldn't be worth while in my opinion. It doesn't produce enough mist to be a june differ substitute.

Agree with Matthew S response. Why pay so much for just the mist? It doesn't produce a lot of mist. If you don't do intermittent mist, it will use up the water quickly - won't last overnight. If you want a humidifier, I would get one. I used ginger essential oil in mine - and it's wonderful.

You should be fine, maybe add just a touch more water. Roughly the same amount of water will be used, the 15 second intervals of misting just have longer gaps between on the longer cycles. There does seem to be an inconsistency to the amount of water that gets used, but I feel like that has more to do with the amount of moisture in the air, than the length of the cycle. I run mine on the 7 hour cycle regularly, and I continues to mist the whole time, but uses approximately the same amount of water as when I run the one or three hour cycles.

It provides a cool mist. I believe you can't use any oils with the humidifier. It asks for cold water only.

A purifier would not add any moisture to the air. If your air is dry, you would still need a humidifier.

Sorry to say, while I think it is a great and effective humidifier, unplugging it (removing it from the A/C in any way) causes it to lose all settings. Likewise, when it runs dry and needs refilling, ALL the settings have to be re-entered. It is an annoyance I am willing to put up with however. I am currently using two of this Crane model.

Hi, I think it also depends on if you just have it on for humidity or if you have it on as diffuser. I have never had it 10/12 hours or if I did, very rarely. I had a regular diffuser that I bought not from amazon and that one truly lasts. its called the premium whisper diffuser off abundanthealth. This one is ok, but isn't exactly how I would have wanted it to work. takes more ti fill and clean where as the other one I had was quite a sinch. Anyway, sometimes the wate lasts a bit longer than 3 hours, but rarely the 10/12 hours. Maybe I am doing something wrong on my end. Hope I helped some.

same here- tried cleaning it, no luck- when I first turn it on a lot of mist comes out and then hardly any, then puffs, then nothingedit- just poured out a lot of the water out of the cup and it works beautifully again! I think it requires a lot less water in the cup than you might think...I misplaced the measuring cup that came with mine. Although if yours doesn't mist at all that's probably not the problem....edit again- it ran out of water before the cycle was done...so that doesn't seem right to me either

There is a light mist that comes from this diffuser but I would not classify it as anywhere near the amount of moisture that you would get from a humidifier.

no, fan will still run but obviously there won't be mist. also, its pretty cheap, the one i got was broken and didn't work, so make sure you test it before you bring it out!

yes, easy maintenance too! Best one on the market. I did a lot of research on humidifiers because I'm a new mom. This saves you money because it does not blow out a warm mist. The warm mist humidifiers cost more money because the water has to heat up and it has mold issues. I've been through it all.

Best thing I have found to do is if you are using the humidifying feature to always keep water in it. it only got smelly when the humidifier ran and the water ran out. Also once you fill up the water and run the unit for 20-30 min the smell goes away. so far it seems to be the only problem I've experienced with this unit.

Thanks. How do u like it so far. It seems rather expensive if u have to replace a wick every couple of weeks. Would you recommend this humidifie? And thank you for the information.

I don't know. I am not sure if you could put the liquid in cool mist humidifier. Every humidifier that i have seen always instructs you to put only water and preferred distilled water only. In my opinion, the liquid should only be used in the device that was designed for it. I feel that this Mosquito Sentry works as designed. My only complaint was the cost of the liquid, but it does make our outdoor living very bearable. For my wife and i to be outside in a New England late afternoon into the evening with mosquitos bitting us, it is worth the price. To put it into perspective, we have two of these devices for our large 16' x 34' deck. We have used about 8 gallons so far with no complaints. I don't know.

Hi J. Oden, Thank you for your interest in the portable humidifier. Regarding essential oils, our portable humidifier works best with only water-soluble essential oil. Essential oil which is not water-soluble may cause our portable humidifier to experience issues, or even be damaged. If there's anything else we can do for you, please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to your feedback! Best Regards, Nancy Deneve - Co-Founder

I use in my Vick's cool mist humidifier that is filterless. I drop in the water tank. No problem with dropping in or removing to change.Can always call the manufacturer to check too.
