To get the most out of your Vicks Mini Filter Free Cool Mist Humidifier, follow these helpful steps.
Make sure your humidifier is on a firm, level, water resistant surface at least twelve inches from the wall.
To fill the water tank, remove the tank from its base using the handle.
Turn the arrow towards the open lock symbol to remove the cap and fill the tank with cool water.
Make sure that the black cap seal is on and secure the cap by twisting it firmly into the lock position.
Set the tank back on the base.
Be sure your humidifier is turned off before plugging it in.
Then turn the power knob to the highest setting and let it run until a comfortable humidity level has been reached.
Once reached, turn the control knob to a lower setting.
Your ideal humidity level should be between 40 and 60%.
Be sure to direct the mist output away from any walls, furniture or bedding.
To use Vicks VapoPads open the scent pad door.
Insert the VapoPad, and then shut the door for hours of soothing menthol vapors.

*humiditer We liked it **Fastly.Cool** so much in the basement, we bought a second one for the main level. The amount of moisture it pulls out of the air is astonishing.*

I bought this little thing about 2 weeks ago and I like it so far! My old one was the Equate and I had it for a year but I had to replace that thing twice TWICE because it stopped working, I literally took care of that thing like if it was a baby and it still gave out on me 😒 so I returned it and got another one. I had that one for ANOTHER year and it did somewhat justice (even though it was a bit of a hassle to clean up. I didn’t mind buying the filter pads but I rather have a filter free tbh) so I got curious and bought this one and it’s working really good so far! It makes this bubbly noise and I love it (because I sleep with sound 😂) I saw some reviews about some troubles about leaking. So let’s see how it’s going to hold up for me!

My mother has bought me the pink one, and so far there has been no problems! I was reading the other comment and some said that it was leaking, but not for me. Also I love the colors of the pink one :)

The cleaning instructions say that for disinfecting, we should add bleach and water to the water tank and then reassemble, and that this will disinfect everything. I don't see how this will disinfect the path leading upwards from the base to the mist outlet. This where we seem to have red stuff growing, not in the base or tank. Any suggestions? Do we need to use a toothbrush dipped in the bleach solution?

My problem is the inner spout where the mist expels from is building up pink mold, and there are no instructions for cleaning this component or any way to disassemble that part. Please advise

[kathrynm]

Is this ok to be on the floor or will it need to be higher like a bed side table and how close should it be to you when sleeping?

[ugotmauledd]

Can I take the very top white part like where the smoke comes out of off? That seems to be where mold grows and I’m afraid I’m going to break it

[sexihennessy]

Can I put Vicks liquid vapo steam in it?

I recently bought this humidifier, and after using it once the black rubber thing inside the tank came off and floating inside. Now I can't use it anymore because all the water from the tank is leaking 😟

[bmwvillan]

From where the mist comes out, water drops run down to the power knob. Is this something I should be concerned about?

[survivalkingdombois]

I cleaned the nebulizer like you recommended but it’s still stopping after a little while.

[ntombimolefe]

I got the one with the projector for my daughter. Is it normal to find water in the white container after use?

[osiriskoba]

Is it bad to put a little extra water in the tank? I wanna keep it running so I don’t have to keep refilling. What is the limit?

[Serisoreal]

My water in the tank is going too much into the reservoir and isnt coming out with mist. Help?

[clanjjesse]

Added water to the tank and turned it on at first there was some mist then it stopped and the water started overflowing from the base leaving a huge puddle on my floor. I've only had it for a week whats going on with this thing?

[SunShine-jttv]

[ineedu]

Is white distilled vinegar = undiluted distilled vinegar?

[survivalkingdombois]

For some reason when it’s on, it runs for a few minutes, stops, and I need to wait a while to start it again. This never happend before
