Product Description
Drop-in filter wick and easy-to-fill tank Domestic humidifier 2-1/2-gallon daily output; 900 square feet of coverage Sleek oval design Two-speed fan; dishwasher-safe water tank and tray
Amazon.com Review
This basic member of the Hamilton Beach Cool Mist family dispenses with frills such as automatic humidity control but retains a sleek, convenient oval design. Because the controls are on one end of the oval rather than the side, the unit can be operated easily even if placed in a narrow space. (It's 10 inches wide and about 17 inches deep.) The single control knob operates a two-speed fan, which means your only options are Quiet Mist and High settings; the latter is pretty noisy, but the former will probably do the trick in most circumstances. The curvy, translucent gray rear tank lifts off easily for refilling, as does the front fan unit for changing or rinsing the drop-in filter. The water tank is dishwasher-safe. --Richard Farr

 Hamilton Beach 05518 TrueAir Cool Mist Humidifier August 12, 2002

This coolmist humidifier is silent in operation. It has a tank that is easily refilled and large enough for several days depending on use. My husband has medical needs where a coolmist humidifer is a necessity. We have paid hundreds for others but the Hamilton Beach 05518 Cool Mist Humidifer is the best. For those that have never used a cool mist humidifier, you will notice the difference immediately in your breathing and healthwise.

This is a GREAT humidifier, too bad not available; I want to buy a second one for another child's room who is on the way. But it is not available.
Those that complain about it have MOLD in their homes. We change the filters periodically and are fine. If it is in a moldy environment, of course there will be more mold. Look behind your walls people, it is your home.

This is a great humidifier. It works really well. Maintenance is really easy, more easy than I had even previously thought. Cleaning once a week is sufficient. It is very quiet also. I suggest it highly.
Great humidifier but you must treat the water! July 9, 2007

When I first started using the 05518 Hamilton Beach Cool mist humidifier with these filters I went through several a season. They would get moldy and start to smell bad after a few weeks, as several other reviewers mention. It could last a little longer if I ran it all the time. However, last winter I found a site recommending the use of a Bacteriostatic water treatment with any cool mist humidifier. I got some from RPS products and it is amazing! You really must use this stuff in any cool mist humidifier. With it, one filter lasted the whole season without a problem. RPS also make generic filters for this humidifier that seem to work just as well and are slightly cheaper. With the solution, 05518 is a great humidifier. I like it better than many other humidifiers I've tried because it has several modes including a quiet mode that is very quiet. It also has a digital measure of the humidity so you can set it in 1% increments. Many other humidifiers only give you a few levels of humidity to choose from. I also lost a part for the humidifier once; I dropped the cap and I lost the spring that keeps the valve closed. I called Hamilton Beach and they were helped me find the part I needed and helped me order a new one. With whatever humidifier you get, make sure if you get a cool mister, get the bacteriostatic solution!
