Honeywell HC-835, Bad Idea

Overall Rating33333

Bad Idea

I got the filter for the humidifier I also just bought. Upon placing the filter in and turning the unit on, a strong odor filled the room. I had to open the windows to air the room out because I didn’t think inhaling the smell was a good idea. Being that it was for my bird’s room, I feel sure that it would result in him getting sick or worse. I believe the problem lies in the Protec antimicrobial treatment. I would never have bought it had I known about this.

Update (1/26/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

Works great
We have bad water that can turn these filters into nasty colors quickly, but it seems to me that means its doing its job. We have gone through over 20 of these in our baby’s room over the last couple years and have not experienced any of the odor issues mentioned in the prior review.

Not sure if it was the right product
I wished there was a description of what the product was made from, for example this product is plastic. What came with the orginal humidifer was made out of paper.
