Best praise vs top criticism for Vornado Evap40
“If you want a warm mist humidifier than I really like the new DREO 2-gallon (8L) humidifier. I can change the setting on my phone with the app, it really is a warm mist and holds 2 gallons of water, so I don't worry about running out when I am in the office. I have it on the auto setting and haven't had any issues. This does need to be cleaned regularly with vinegar due to scaling from minerals in the water. If you don't want or need the warm mist that I like the vornado Evaporative Humidifier evap 40. It works, holds 2 gallons of water. Just change the wick filter every few weeks and I am good to go.”
