Professional reviewers recommend the Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic 7133 humidifier for being reliable, near-silent and easy to clean and maintain. Experts also cite its antimicrobial silver stick, compact footprint and ability to generate either cool or warm mist. This Air-O-Swiss humidifier outputs up to 3.5 gallons of water per day and has a two-gallon tank capacity. Owner evaluations focus on its quiet and effective operation over the rated area of 600 square feet, though a few complaints arise about its durability and the generation of white dust. If you don't mind some noise, the Kenmore 15408 (*Est. $110) also receives favorable reviews and can humidify a much larger area.
