Improper use or shipping the product outside the U.S. will void all warranties. Review: It just works. No fuss. - This type of humidifier works on a very basic principle, and as such it's a very simple device. It's a bowl of water with a sponge and a fan. The humidistat is the most advanced piece of tech in it, but this is literally something you can just make yourself using household items. Obviously this product is designed for optimal airflow and evaporation and noise and convenience and so on, but the underlying idea is just: let the water freely evaporate into the air. It doesn't heat the water, so it doesn't heat your room or consume much power at all. It doesn't vibrate the water, so it doesn't sprinkle mineral dust all over your room either. You can dump plain tap water in it, and the cost of upkeep is replacing the $14 sponge-like wick every couple months instead of buying distilled water constantly. It's quite good value for your money compared to other humidifier types. Of course it works. If you set a giant bowl of water out in your room, eventually it will all evaporate. This thing distributes a small amount of the water across the wick to increase its surface area, and then pulls air across it with a fan, which speeds up the evaporation process. It works. Of course it does. Ugh, reading humidifier reviews is so annoying, because all of the critical reviews say stuff like, "It used up a whole tank of water, but the air in my room didn't get more humid, so it doesn't work. 1 star." Where do you think the water went?? If you don't know, all of the objects in your room have to absorb humidity first, before the air can increase in humidity. The bed, the chair, the couch, the curtains. Wooden tables, cabinets, dressers, doors. The drywall that makes up the walls. They all pull water out of the air. And if your HVAC system is circulating the air in your room to other parts of your house, then you're trying to make this little thing humidify your entire house. It does work. I set it to 40%, it eventually brought my room to 40% and kept it there. I set it to 50%, it eventually brought my room to 50% and kept it there. It takes time for the moisture to distribute evenly throughout everything. I started from 13% humidity in a 9'x12' bedroom and it took two tanks of water. I also keep the door and window closed most of the time, so that I'm not humidifying the rest of the house, or the rest of the world. You'd need something a bit bigger for that. It's easy to clean. All the surfaces that touch water are curved with no corners. You can't throw it in the dishwasher, but you don't need to. Just wipe it down with some soap in the sink whenever you feel like it needs it, don't overthink it. Don't use stuff that scratches plastic, etc. It's not silent. It doesn't make the watery glorp noise every time a bubble enters the tank, but the fan is noticeable. It's a small fan inside a cylindrical housing that directs the airflow, but also works like a resonant chamber, so it makes a constant whirring noise while it's operating. If your house is completely dead silent, you will notice this thing turning off and on. But if there's normal background noise, you'll hardly ever notice it. I think the quality of the noise is quite comforting and soothing; it has a nice white noise profile that isn't harsh or distracting. There's no sudden click or attack when it turns on. You may even want to buy this humidifier specifically for the background noise to help you sleep. I bought a loud air filter for that, after all. The shape of the thing is elegant and modern, but it looks like a medical device, with its bright white body accented with gray. The white makes it easier to tell when there's algae starting to grow in it, so I understand. But the white is still kinda ugly. For the price and functionality, it's well worth it. My only point of criticism is that the UI uses the world's brightest blue LEDs. I will never understand why corporations feel like spamming blue LEDs into all of their products. They are very uncomfortable to look at, and I'm pretty sure you could use these ones by themselves to light your whole room. The LEDs dim after a few seconds, but they're still ugly and piercing. Buy some LED dimming stickers to put over them, you can get packs here on desertcart for like $4. This isn't enough for me to lower my score by a star, but I'm still gonna complain about it. Enough with the blue LEDs!! Review: There are no two ways about it - Either you will have white dust to clean up if you buy a cheap humidifier or you can buy this Vornado and change the wick filters now and then and you'll have no white dust. This is my third Vornado humidifier. I also own the EVAP40 with 2 tanks but that one alone couldn't handle the entire 1500 square foot home. So I purchased this one for the master bedroom, which measures 15 x18 feet. It works fine and the fan on low is quiet enough I don't lose any sleep. I've had this a month and no leaking at all. I'm thinking the people who complain about leaking either don't read instruction manuals or didn't test for minute cracking after unboxing. The manual says to do this. Mine was fine, so I had it set up in less than 5 minutes. The water container is easy to fill and carry. I have hard water where I live and the wick filters last me 7-8 weeks. So depending on when I set the humidifiers up for the winter season, I only need to replace them once. Sometimes I can get by with only 1 set of filters by soaking them in vinegar and then replacing them back into the humidifier. BTW, the Vornado customer service is excellent. On my original EVAP40 I bought in 2008, the fan motor started making a strange sound only 3 days before the warranty expired (a 5 year warranty). I contacted Vornado and they immediately sent a replacement no charge. All they wanted in return was the cut off cord of the old unit. The EVAP40 I'm using now is 11 years old. I also have several Vornado air circulator fans that are almost 15 years old and even now, those work as new. ## Features - OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE β€” 1-gallon water tank delivers powerful evaporative humidification for bedrooms and living rooms up to 260 sq ft, providing consistent moisture distribution through Vornado's signature airflow technology for optimal comfort - INTELLIGENT HUMIDIFICATION β€” Evaporative humidifier uses natural evaporation process with antimicrobial treated wick to eliminate white dust and mist, making it ideal as a for baby nurseries and bedroom use without residue - SIMPLE CONTROLS β€” Electronic humidistat with 3 fan speeds and 6 humidity levels (40-60% or continuous) allows precise moisture control, perfect for home humidifiers for bedroom adults and kids seeking customized comfort settings - INNOVATIVE DESIGN β€” SimpleTank system features easy-fill design with integrated carrying handle and removable cap, creating an easy to clean humidifier that simplifies maintenance for busy households and office environments - SUPERIOR SUPPORT β€” Our standards are high, and so are your expectations.

I would run it all the time. The fan running with the unit is out of water will not harm the humidifier and drying out the filter wicks will help prevent bacterial growth and will not harm the filter wicks. **Q: which filter does it use? MD1-002 or MD1-0034?** A: The EV100 uses the MD1-0034 Filter Wicks. The MD1-0002 Filter Wicks are too thick. **Q: Can you use tap water?** A: You can use tap water but the filters will last longer with distilled or reverse osmosis water. Minerals from the tap water will be trapped in the filter and eventually prevent the filter from absorbing any water. The filter would then need to be changed. Under normal conditions a filter wick will last 4 to 8 weeks. You would need to compare the extended useful life of the filter wick using distilled or reverse osmosis water with the cost of the water compared to the price of the filter wicks. **Q: Does this use a gravity-fed water tank that lets air in with a 'glug glug glug' sound? Like the pet water bowls.** A: Yes, but you don't really hear the glug glug sound. It's a nice unit - we use it in our BR. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It just works.

I also have several Vornado air circulator fans that are almost 15 years old and even now, those work as new. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well but too loud *by C***N on December 22, 2022* I looked at reviews before buying and purchased even with the many problems reported. Almost all reported problems are not true, I'll address those below. In general, the unit works as expected, humidifying a small space effectively, but it's just too loud for my tastes. The only thing it's missing is auto-shutoff when dry if you're looking for that feature. Its lowest humidity level is 40% which is too high for freezing climates, causing excessive window condensation. Leaking: there is an entire page of the instructions dedicated to checking and testing your unit for leaks. Mine didn't leak and if yours does, it's either a cracked tray from shipping or user error (for example, the first time my spouse refilled it, they didn't seat the tank correctly into the base). Heed their warnings and test run your unit where it won't water damage the surface it's on if it leaks. Humidifying: the unit absolutely does work if you use it correctly. The reviews that claim it does nothing are clearly user error. The bottom edge of the wick must be completely touching the base because the water level is only 1/4" deep, if that. Second, it must be covering all the air intake slots--I found that I had to adjust it after it was wet (lift the white fan housing off but leave the grey housing on the base to adjust). The airflow doesn't bypass the wick and the wick doesn't flop over like two users claimed. Remember, this is an evaporative humidifier so if your ambient air already has high humidity, it's not going to work well, just like evaporative coolers don't work well in humid climates. One other thing to keep in mind if you use this on carpet, the full tank will make the unit tilt that direction so water won't adequately fill the space around the wick, therefore, you need to put something under the tank part of the base to level it out--I used a ceramic drink coaster. Blue lights: the two tiny LEDs for fan speed and humidity level go dim after 20-30 seconds and are very dim. Either other reviewers had defective units or Vornado addressed the issue in the newer iterations. These lights are not an issue unless you're looking directly into them. Cycling on/off constantly: mine works fine, cycling on/off at a reasonable interval. If yours is erratic, it's defective. Noise: this is the only issue I'd have to agree with other reviewers--it's too loud. I bought the smaller EV100 to use in our bedroom and even the low fan speed is way too loud. Our Vornado Evap40 on low is practically silent compared to the EV100 (it's not that quiet, but you get the drift). There is a definite change in pitch from high to low, but it isn't much. I've contacted Vornado support via email questioning this issue and I'll update my review if it was a defect or working as expected. If it is normal, I'll only run it during the day and shut it off at night. If you like white noise then it won't be an issue for you. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vornado EV100 Evaporative Whole Room Humidifier with SimpleTank, 1 Gallon Capacity, White - Vornado MD1-0034 Replacement Humidifier Wick (Pack of 2) , White - ANTOBLE 4 Pack MD1-0034 Humidifier Wick Replacement Filters Compatible with Vornado EVAP2, EVAP40, EV100, EV200, EVDC300, EVDC500, EVDC505 Evaporative Humidifiers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/34583468-ev100-evaporative-humidifier](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/34583468-ev100-evaporative-humidifier) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
