Is there a light in the tank/how bright is the display? I need this for my daughter's nursery and she WILL NOT sleep if it glows at all.

The constant blue glow definitely keeps me awake, unless I turn the display to the wall AND push it into the drapes to block all the light. This is annoying because then it's hard to set the controls, which have to be re-set every time you turn it on.

Try the Rowenta HU5120 -- it's got basically the same features, but provides a "baby" setting that disables all the lights and beeps!

We bought it for our son's nursery....he sleeps fine with the light. it is a soothing blue light on the front display. the tank does not glow.

No mine is light. Actually wish mine was darker as it shows stains from my kids!

It is quite bright but we like it that way. Difficult to say if it would keep a baby awake. If the baby requires semi-darkness, I'm afraid this light would be too bright, especially in a small nursery.

There is no light involved. To see it at night you would either have to turn the room lights on or use a flashlight, so it definitely will not keep you awake.

It is very dark not lighted - some complain they can't see the water level. I have a small light next to it at night - It reflexs the light enough to see the water level.Don't need it in the daytime a full tank lasts me 3 days running it on low - It runs about 10-12 hrs a day.

The unit does not sleep, the display stays on/lit until you turn it off yourself! I would class this as a regular LED display you would find on home appliances? It isn't particularly bright, but not overly dim either. In a well lit room it is quite unobtrusive, but clear and visible in the dark. The Amazon picture is a fair depiction of what you get!

It is suttle but it does glow. It needs a lot of light in the daytime to do it and doesn't last long. I agree that it is not obvious and usually I don't notice it at all

sorry for delayed response.Yes, you can see the light.It's oddly purple like the color in the pic.I use it for plants in the bathroom and it now doubles as a soft-light sort of night-light.

The light will not be a problem for your baby, but my Pureguardian H1000 lasted for only 2 months before it started making noise and then it quit working altogether...I haven't tried to return it yet..

Yes, the display is lit. I just tried it in a closet, and I could read it fine.

The display light which is quite bright goes on automatically when you press buttons and it goes off after a few seconds of not touching anything. There is a small blue bulb light that stays on all the time but I haven't found it to be disruptive. In a dark room it will give off a bit of a blue glow and I suppose if it really bothers you can try to cover it up but as I say, it hasn't been an issue for us.

No, it is not bright enough. My mother has the same problem and we haven't been able to find anything that helps at this point. We purchased this lamp and she still says there is not enough light.

I'm at work and don't have the box in front of me, but I believe it's an LCD screen but it's backlit with LED lights. When my last LCD went on the fritz, I discovered that the screen was backlit with fluorescent tubes and one had gone bad. So the new thing is to backlight the screen with LED. Should save energy and the bulbs are more stable.

It s really low glow. a faint glow can be seen from the emitter. This unit also has two status lights on the front that need to be covered.

Mine does not have lights either. I'm a little disappointed in this product. Not as interactive as I had hoped.

Should be a clean bright light same as cool fluorescent bulb, not like a warm light. There can be a slight violet tint depending on contents of aquarium

There is no light illuminating the Tank. However, the LED control panel does emit some light that is noticeable at night
