Directly into the unit. FYI, we have this and it really does not work very well. It cannot keep up in our home with putting humidity into the air in the winter. The best it gets up to when it's dry outside is 38. It's sitting in our attic:(

This is extremely easy to fill. I roll it to my kitchen sink (I keep it in the kitchen because my condo is only 980 sq living area), take the top off, it is not plugged in to the outlet at this point), pull the sink faucet spayer over the bottom of the unit and fill directly from the sink. NO BOTTLES!!! Roll it back to its place, put the top on, plug it in and it picks up where it left off. I also add the bacteria control solution before placing the lid on. Having the digital hydrometer to set the amount of humidity is a blessing. The unit does not go beyond your setting. It stops and picks up again when the humidity level you set requires it.

Hi, Bottom is open. The top of the unit (contains fan an electronics) sets on and lifts off. I fill it with a pail/bucket. I can be a little annoying to to get the top of unit realligned properly after a fill but not a big deal. Filling thru the front vent works well too if you don't use a huge pail to refill. I add a drop bleach to a fill now and then.

You fill it directly. The top part that has the motor and removeable. The bottom part holds the water and filter. The front vent you see there is removable also and you can fill through that space. Easy to fill, rolls well.

The unit is filled directly. We use a bucket especially for this purpose as you want to fill the unit with clean water---no residue from other uses. Use Essick Bacteriostatic treatment with each refill to control bacteria and algae build-up. We've had our unit for three winters and it works perfectly. I have dry eyes and would be very uncomfortable during winter months in a heated house without humidity added by our Essick.

I put the casters on it. So, I can just roll it to the sink and use the pull-up faucet head to fill it. You don't really have to lift the whole top off..just the front grille. It's actually a bit hard to re-seat the automatic turn-off float if there is water in the unit., because it's floating So just lift off the front grille.

I've had this for a year and love it. the front grate comes off and i just leave it off. then i wheel the entire thing in the bathroom and use the shower hose to load up the 6 gallons of water once a week. i got this unit solely for the ease of filling. once you get it you wont ever do a tabletop unit again! the top cover, about 1 ft deep, comes off the unit and the large reservoir on the bottom fills up about half way. it is a pain to line up the cover again with the auto off switch but well worth it because of the easy of filling!

No it is loaded from the top. The bottom has a little compartment for storage I put some disposable cups in. For the Water you have to take the cap completely off and then put it in. It sounds scarry like water will spill everywhere when you flip it, but it's just like pouring milk in a bowl only you continue to flip it all the way upside down and it sits on a piece on the inside. I am a horrible clutz and I've never spilled any water. The only time water was when I didn't realize the bottle itself had a hold at the bottom so the bottle itself leaked all over my floor before I ever opened it to use it. I hope this works.

It is a pour spout. Not a large opening for drinking but a good sized one for adding ice and water.

It comes with a little plastic bottle that (in theory) screws into the bottom of the unit. You have to add the oils to it yourself, it does not come with any. On my unit, the threaded plastic that holds the bottle in broke after removing it, filling it, and putting it back once. If you look on all the reviews, this happens with just about every single unit. And be warned, IT CANNOT BE RETURNED. Learned that the hard way.

The cage has openings for the food and water but you have to unlatch the cage part from the top to free the bottom tray. It is very convenient and easy to clean even the guard for the bottom of the cage. So it doesn't slide out but really keeps the mess in better.

Hi Jahvani, I was very happy with this purchase. But I only used plastic bottles (with removable single use inserts). I think if you put glass bottles on the bottom tray, it should hold them all right.

there is a door in front which flips open and u insert a spout into it we use a gallon jug with a pour spout to fill it actually an old orage juice container the humidifier works great and the fill line is visible though the door

Yes the pump pulls off the top and its easy to fill. No need to go under the counter to get to the bottle.

It has a screw on lid. it came with a plastic seal in it like pill bottles do. My second had that and a paper lid inside that had to be removed.

It has a drain hole in the back. I just put a empty 1.5 liter bottle under it and unscrew it. I haven't had any problems that way.

Yes, it is narrow and long and holds a nice amount of water (I forget exactly how much). This fits on the bottom half shelf in my fridge still leaving room for other tall, narrow (like a pitcher, gallon of milk, bottles of wine, etc.) items to go on the side of it. We drink a lot of water, so we fill a couple of times a day, but we always have fresh, cold water ready.

No, it is open, but for immediate use it works fine. Not like the cheaper Wallyworld combination hot water bottles... this unit, including tubing, is of high quality and should provide years of service if properly cleaned and stored. I hope this helps! Happy Evacuating... (Just had to add that)...

It does not empty from the bottom, but it's easy to just empty by just turning it over a garbage can. It has a wide opening.

It has a 1" opening. I use mine for liquid soap and don't have any trouble filling it.

No it has a great closable pour opening that is easy to drink from or put a straw in.

No there it doesn't but it is a small sealed unit and I have had no problem pouring it out.

It does NOT. See the yellow section... that pushes in and the whole is "opened" to drink out of. I have two of these for a year... they are GREAT! When it is hot, I freeze water in them the night before, send one to school with my son, and it keeps his water cold longer than his school day!
