Product Description
Bionaire Console Humidifier with Galileo wireless climate center for 1700 square foot room
Amazon.com
This space-age-styled humidifier will quietly disperse cool moisture to a room, small home, or apartment of 1,700 square feet. Easy-to-fill water reservoirs on either side of the unit output about 10 gallons of water per day, enabling the humidifier to run up to 36 hours without requiring refilling. You can manually set the Galileo from the unit’s control panel, or program it to operate automatically. The Climate Center is unique in that it has a remote humidistat that is constantly communicating with the main unit to ensure that all areas of the room within a 30-foot radius maintain the desired moisture level. Other humidifiers tend to have built-in humidistats that only increase the moisture level directly around the unit. The remote control’s backlit digital display indicates both current, and desired room humidity--even when the humidifier is turned off. The remote control is angled for easy reading while resting on a tabletop, and also fits neatly into a storage spot on the humidifier. A child safety lock prevents little ones from operating the wireless climate center unsupervised, and an indicator light tells you when batteries are getting low. Dual air filters remove airborne particles from indoor spaces, while a filter monitor lets you know when the wick needs replacing. For healthier operation, a built-in Microban microbial product discourages the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew within the humidifier. Rolling casters glide the humidifier from room to room to supply direct humidity to a particular space. Measuring 14-1/4 inches long, 28-3/4 inches wide, and 21 inches high, this model is covered by Bionaire under a two-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

This review is from: Bionaire W15-UC 1700-Square-Foot Console Humidifier with Galileo Wireless Climate Center (Kitchen)
First the complaints: I had to remove the screwcaps from the water tanks and turn them around when setting up the unit because they were backwards. Then, the instructions for the electronic control took a while to figure out.
Now the praise: The remote humidistat really does work. You wouldn't put your furnace thermostat right at the heating vent, so why should humidifiers have humidity sensors built into the unit? This is the first humidifier that solves that problem. Finally, steady humidity in my house! Also, the water tanks hold a LOT of water. That's great, because I don't have to fill them as often. The fan is quiet as long as you keep it on low or medium speed (you select which speed with the control). Also, the water in the unit doesn't get that musty smell I've encountered with other humidifiers. The product description says "anti-microbial feature" but I didn't believe it until I noticed the lack of a musty smell. I've bought several humidifiers over the years,...Read more

I bought this unit on the recommendation of a friend. His works fine with no noise issues at all. That said...
...the reviewers who complained about the noise were correct. The unit is very noisy at the medium and high fan speeds, however, the fix if fairly easy. The noise generates from the vibration of the water storage containers against the main unit. I put a bungie cord around mine and now it runs whisper quiet. I can't swear that this is the solution for every unit, but for mine it was that simple.
The unit does a decent job of maintaining a constant humidity level in the area I'm using it in but the claim that it will cover 1700 square feet is a bit exagerated. I'm using it in an area about half that size and it is just about adequate. That may be because the remote sensor, though a good idea, has to stay fairly close to the unit or it loses contact with the unit and the humidifier turns itself off. There's no warning when this happens. You...Read more

It is SOOOO.... noisy!! I should have listened to the other reviews but I figured that Bionaire had fixed the problem by now. Not so. Its so noisy that it is unusable at any fan speed. It rattles and vibrates. Colossal waste of money.
