My husband and I purchased the Venta Sonic VS205 Ultrasonic Humidifier after searching online for the one I thought would be the best for us. We have a pellet stove and I suffer with allergies and the first week we started up the stove I started with a sinus infection. One week after getting the humidifier (and taking medication) the sinus infection was gone. My head has been clear ever since we have gotten the humidifier. I do not have to take pills everyday for headaches and do not wake up every morning with a sinus headache. Our living room is quite big, 17X28 and our bedroom is right off the living room and this humidifier reaches right into the bedroom. When I searched for a humidifier I wanted both a cool and warm mist and this one has both, it also advertised that the fan blows the mist visibly into the room where it instantly evaporates, well part of this is correct. We have laminate floors in the living room and when I first got it home placed it on a table and turned it on, within a few hours the floor under the humidifier was damp and after one day I knew I had to move it or the floor would be ruined. I moved it to a place in the room where I have a large area rug. Therefore the mist does not evaporate totally. I still give this humidifier a A score because it is easy to refill, lasts up to 2 days before you have to refill it and there is no white dust at all. It also has no removable filter there is only a cartridge that needs to be replaced once or twice a year, something like a Brita water filter cartridge. It also shuts off automatically once it reaches the correct humidity level and shuts off when it runs out of water. It is also quiet and you cannot hear it running at all. I would highly recommend this except for the moisture on the floor. For $99.00 it is a great buy..
