Does this humidifier have 3 different fan speeds (i.e. low, med, high)? We prefer a white noise, and I am wondering if this particular humidifier do?

It has 6 fan settings actually. Low med high constant or auto where it'll shut off when it reaches the desired humidity level

Yes there are 3 speeds. I do not understand what is meant by white noise. But the humidifier is pretty quiet.

It does have variable speeds - probably not exactly white noise, however, it is quiet compared to other humidifiers we have had. We like it - good value.

This humidifier does have variable speeds and its sound is comparable to a quiet fan.

It has different settings and works well as "white noise" regardless of what setting you use, the sound stays the same. It is a very low sound that we find soothing.

you DON'T want a silent fan? I'm confused. I love this 3 speed as it doesn't just go back and forth. I rotates in a circle. It can be constant or give you a "wind" burst effect. It is quiet but I can still hear it. Sure, white noise. But a noisier one, you got me. I really like this one.

Eventhough it's not a humidifier, it does put some moister in the air. Honestly I prefer it over humidifier because its much quiter, and the mist finer putting just enough moiter in the air to aliviate dry sinus. I run it for 3 hours in the eve before bed time then reset to and additional 3 when going to bed and it does the trick for us (10x12 room).

It depends on which setting you put it on. I usually have mine on 2 and-although it's noticeable- it's not any worse than a humidifier, or space heater. Even at 3 it's basically the same. I've never had it above 3 so couldn't say about the higher levels.

No "breeze" setting. It does have a "white noise" setting. From quietest to loudest: "sleep", "calm", "white noise", "refresh", "power cool".

It would depeand on what speed you had it on. I don't fine to be noise at all. though I do not have it in the bed room. on low speed it is very quite. although at any speed, I hardly notice that it is there. this is my second year with the humidifier, and one of the best buys in humidfiers I have made.

There are 4 different speed settings. We use this as white noise in the baby's room in addition to the purifier. I rarely have it on higher than 1 or 2 bc I like the softer sound, kind of like when the AC comes on it just sounds like background noise. We rarely need to use level 3 or 4 but it would sound like a louder fan I guess.

No , not at all. This humidifier is awesome ! Seen it on DIY Channel and when they said it was quiet I knew it was for us.

Yes, it has three different speeds, but keep in mind that this is a commercial fan, and it is noisy. It is perfect for our garage as we live in FL and use the garage year-round for projects.

No. You get to choose from among 3 distinct speeds. The only drawback to that is that even the slowest speed might push too much air to suit your needs. However, if you want a fan that really "blows" (in the positive sense of the word), this is IT!

According to the manual, the fan is 55W, and the Cool Mist Humidifier is 35W. They can be run together or separately.

3 speeds: Low(1) is quiet but not very effective/Med (2) is like a fan on med/high--OK on the other side of a good-sized room/High(3) is loud, like a room air conditioner up close to your ear

I'm also a light sleeper. When I put this humidifier on low at night I don't hear it. It is a very quiet. I've had this humidifier for 2 yrs. and it is the best buy I've made in humidifiers.

We have one in our bedroom and one in our daughters bedroom. It has three settings, we keep ours on the medium setting the "white noise" is great for us. The faster setting setting has an even louder sound. The units run 24/7

This unit can perform cool OR warm mist. .... Your choice. Have only used the cool mist option but I must say it is THE BEST humidifier I have ever used. I would have to believe it is just as efficient on warm as it is on cool. 5 star!

Katrin, the unit is very silent. It doesn't have the noisey fan like a wet spong humidifier. I don't have a DB rating but it is easy to sleep with.

I do not use the humidifier only the heater. works well in smaller room, Runs all day in large area. It would take forever to heat a large space with this unit. I do like it for smaller areas.
