Congratulations, Elizabeth K!
The drop is a cool mist humidifier with a modern & sleek design made by Crane USA. Cool mist means that it doesn’t boil the water to generate steam. It has a 1 gallon capacity tank but shoots out 2.1 gallons of mist. The design is not only elegant but simple to use. Fill the tank with water and turn the dial for a jet of mist to burst out of the 360º nozzle. The mist should shoot straight up and dissipate into the air. If it shoots up and falls to the ground, you have the dial turned too high for your home. Cleaning this humidifier couldn’t be simpler. There are no filters to clean or replace!!! That may be one of my favorite features. The entire tank is removable and there are no tiny parts to worry about. Just wipe each of the three pieces down with an equal mixture of water and vinegar. If you notice calcium build up after a couple uses, you may want to switc
h to using distilled water.
Many people think humidifiers are just a seasonal thing but humidifiers are great year round. In the winter months running a humidifier helps my skin and in the summer it helps with my allergies and nasal congestion. The rise in humidity provides noticeable relief all year long. This is another favorite feature, for those busy moms who may on occasion forget to turn it off, it’s no problem because the unit automatically shuts off when it is low on water. The manual says it can work in a room several hundred square feet so if you’ve got multiple rooms, buy a few and spread them out because they barely use any power and they are totally whisper quiet. Seriously, my refrigerator makes more noise than this.
It is the absolute best looking humidifier in this affordable price range. Everything else looks like medical equipment from the 80’s, am I right? I have my humidifier in my bedroom at the moment but plan to transfer it to my nursery when it becomes occupied. The drop humidifier is so sleek that it would even be a great piece to add to any living room end table.
