Are you able to see the humidity level? Also, when humidity has reached the desired level, does this turn off the mist until the humidity drops below the setting, turning the mist on once again?

No it doesn't measure humidity level. There is a knob to control how much humidity it should generate that's it.

Hi. There is no hygrometer on this humidifier. You set the level with a twist knob and it just controls the amount of output of mist. It will not stop if a certain point is reached nor will it tell you what the humidity is.

Doesn't measure room humidity if that's what you mean. There is a dial to set relatively (like a slow to fast dial) how much humidity you want it to put out. The automatic shut-off only kicks in when the water level gets to almost empty.

No, the Crane does not tell you the humidity level nor does it turn off automatically.

No it does not have measurement capabilities. It also constantly runs. It does not shut on and off.

With unit powered on, the display should show the current humidity % of the area around it. By pressing the " - " OR " + " button near the display once it will switch from the current area % to the humidity level setting. Then continue to press either the " - " OR " + " button to reach the desired % setting. Remember, the unit has a +/- 5% thermostat variance so whatever the desired setting, the unit will automatically start/stop within +/- 5% of that setting.

After you set the desired level, it will switch to current humidity level ( and resume showing the current) in a few couple seconds.

Ours runs for a period of time you set, but not on an auto humidity setting basis. When it turns off from the timer, you have to turn it on again. It is not like an alarm clock where it resets for the next day.

If you see it connected, it is reading it. However, it does not display its readings. What it does do is display by default is the average temperature and humidity of both locations. Deep in the thermostat menu you can change that option to display sensor temperature and humidity, thermostat temperature and humidity, or the average of both.

This unit measures both the humidity and the temperature, but it displays only the relative humidity, so if you want to know the temperature, you'll need another meter for that. I have a temperature controller next to the humidity meter, so I get temperature off that.

no, you cannot adjust the amount of mist. it's just a steady stream the whole time. And the item will turn off after certain amount of time. I've been incredibly happy with this purchase!

It really depends on the setting you put it on. This particular humidifier allows you to adjust the humidity level and it regulates itself to keep the rooms humidity consistent with the setting. We have out the humidity at 50% and the rug was damp. I suggest putting a towel in the direction the mist is blowing. Please don't let that deter you from purchasing this humidifier!! This is the only humidifier that we have found that works and works well!!! We absolutely love it!

We found out that humidity is everything. On a dry day the output is so-so. On a humid day it is incredible! Regardless, it is a great little machine.

There is a sensor, it's built in to the humidifier so you can set the humidity level. Although I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate, I have a separate humidity sensor and the numbers are about 5 degrees of humidity apart.

We live in a hot and dry apartment. We usually do not at the timer, set output to max, and it will cycle on/off until it runs out of water, usually the next morning. The humidistat does appear to overestimate the humidity by about 10% compared to a separate hydrometer. I believe this is due to the location of the senor near the mist output, but is easy to overcome by setting the target humidity about 10% higher. The timer is optional and I've never used it.

I do not have the unit vented and use the reservoir to collect water. When the rest of wine here is full the unit shuts off. You can also program it to run a certain amount of time and shut off. I don't think it shuts off when the selected humidity level is reached, but I'm not sure about that. So sorry I can't be more helpful. But I do love these units :-)

When the humidity level you chose is reached the mist turns off but the unit stays on.

It doesn't shut off when it reaches the desired humidity level, it shuts off if you set it with the timer. It also shuts off when the decanter reaches the maximum amount of water it holds. It works great, so far we are very satisfied with this unit.

The right button if you hold it down should turn on humidifier. It will sound like a fan is kicking on and a mist will come out of top. The left is to turn on and off the lights. No I don't believe that it de-humidifies.

I wish I knew. I have this and the manual says absolutely nothing about how to set this in dehumidifier mode....nor do I see anything on the display about % of humidity. Sounds like BS to me. I'm probably going to get a separate dehumidifier instead...considering the fact that dehumidifiers display the amount of humidity in the air. I have no idea why NewAir listed this as a dehumidifier. I understand that AC mode can serve as a slight dehumidifier, but that's not so concentrated on that function.

Yes, there is a humidity button for choosing anywhere from 40 to 60%. Auto off at that level.
