is this a warm mist humidifier?

It is not a warm mist humidifier, it is just a very noisy cool humidifier that I do not recommend to buy.

No, it's an evaporative. You won't see the vapors like with a mist humidifier.

I don't think so. The humidity is set at a fixed amount. I think this is more of a air purifier than a humidifier.

I would return it. Mine worked well for about 3 days and started doing it. It hasn't worked since. It seems like a lot of people are having issues with these humidifiers.

I don't think it "Uses heat", but the mist does become very warm, almost hot after a few hours of diffusing.

I would not use it as a humidifier. While it does put a small amount of water into the air, the real purpose is to diffuse essential oils. We live in Utah (a high mountain desert) and in the winter use a humidifier as well as our diffuser. If your intent is to add moisture to the air, I would get a humidifier. However, some people will use the humidifier and place Vicks in the reservoir to help with breathing. If that's your intent, then this diffuser and essential oils will work much, much, much better.

It is a cool mist...releases a vapor almost instantly when turned on.And it is ultra quiet :) I like that too.

I would not use it as a humidifier. It emits a visible mist of the oil/water mixture surrounding the device that carries throughout my home (nice oil smell wise) but not necessarily the way a humidifier distributes just moist air. An actual humidifier would be better if that's what your looking for.

Sorry for your affliction. This machine seems as advertised. I got a couple of hygrometers to measure the humidification and it helps, but it was also summer/air conditioning season. I'd withhold judgment until I got through a winter with the dry heat of my electric furnace.

There's no heater in our unit. The mist feels cool. But it's mechanical and noisy. We'd recommend an ultrasonic instead, especially for sleeping.

Hi Mike, I haven't had mine for very long and I was supprised at the heat. It is a dry heat which actually wasn't bad. My mom had a de humidifier when I was growing up and I don't remember a lot of heat coming out of hers. So yes, there is more heat than I expected but I am pleased with the product.

Excuse me, cool** like the previous person said, it can be pretty loud. Barely worth the 20$(I spent 35$ on this at cvs, regretted it). I'm probably going to invest in a better cool mist humidifier next winter and throw this one out.

Warm mist. But this product is not a good product, I wish I would have never bought it.

Yes, all humidifiers blow hot air. Unfortunately, that is how they work. We have had to decide if we wanted less humidity or less heat. We vary the use depending on the season. I hope this is helpful.

I don't have a clue what that actually means but what I will say is that the (slightly) warm air coming out of the humidifier has a very fresh quality to it. It's more of what you'd expect from colder air. I'm comparing this to two other cool air humidifiers I've used.

Yes, it definitely is. I would say it is much more quiet than a humidifier. It has a very quiet water sound from the vaporizer. It is easy to have in a bedroom while sleeping.

Cool mist only but doesn't send out a dust like some warm air ones do...such as an ultra-sonic humidifier.
