Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Like other reviewers, I was happy with this humidifier at first, but on just the second tank fill, this unit leaked water all over my floor. I took the tank out, filled it with some water, and put it in a pan to check for leaks. Sure enough, the valve circled in the attached pic had a steady drip. This is the valve that is pushed open by the float in the unit's base when more water is needed in the bottom; it's supposed to be closed when the base is full. The leak causes the base to overfill and leak out of the unit. The valve is pretty flimsy and clearly a weak link in this unit. It's going back, and I do not recommend.
