Honeywell® HCM-350 UV Germ-Free Cool Mist Humidifier

Fan Speeds
Specs
How It Works
Once the filled water tank is in place, water is delivered to the UV and wicking systems. When the unit is on, the water moves very slowly past the UV system. This is ample time to destroy germs, fungus and mold that may be present in the water. The water is then delivered to the filter/wick. This saturated wick not only filters the air, but also provides moisture to the humidifier fan, which, in turn, delivers germ free* moisture to the room.
Based on independent testing, report 3175067COL-001. Results are based on microbial reduction rate testing performed using tap water in the water tray. The following listed microorganism growth reduction was maintained after 2 hours of continuous exposure to the ultraviolet light in the humidifier.

Reviews

Pros: Inexpensive, well made and does the job.
Cons: We did read the 1 star review and thought it harsh, although we would like to clean the fan blades, too.
Shopping Experience: Rasy-peasy

Shopping Experience: Terrible! OK, to qualify, the humidifier works just fine. We've had it for a year, and we run it quite often. However, there is NO way to get into the fan blades to clean them. Take a look at a fan that's been running for a month or two and see how the dust gathers.
This unit could be 5-star if they let you access the fan blades to clean them. As it is, I spent half an hour trying to clean it with Q-tips, but that doesn't work. It's almost as though the product designers intended this to be disposable. I'm not a germ-phobe, but humidifying my house with fan blades completely coated with grey/black dust just seems ridiculous.
