AMAZING
I have a ten month old and a three year old who both had a severe cough. With this they slept through the night in peace. If you dont have one GET ONE!

Nice looking humidifier BUT…
Tried using it over 2-3 hours, but it kept turning itself off after 5-10 minutes, whether it was on the High or the Low setting. Maybe a faulty machine. Returned the product for a refund.

Tripping
Bought this product used it few times and it started tripping my breaker
Stan, 35 - 44
Decent humidifier
Bought this a month ago for my newborn twins who were coughing and sneezing a lot. It’s definitely helped with their coughing and sneezing and it’s a good product overall. Knocking one star off as it’s very unstable, the compartment holding the water doesn’t lock into place and if you try to move it and if you’re not careful it’ll fall off.

Worked a treat
I bought this for my aging father who has bronchitis. It was a treat, helps him breath and sleep. I have one myself at home, definitely rate these.

Hello and thank you for your interest in our product! The Vicks VH845 Warm Mist Humidifier can absolutely be used on its own to provide soothing warm mist without VapoPads. The VapoPads are an optional accessory that can be added if you’d like a menthol or other scented vapour, but they are not required for the humidifier to function. Many people choose to run the unit with plain water only, especially when looking for simple moisture relief from congestion. Later on, when desired, the VapoPads can be used to add extra comfort for coughs and colds. If any additional information is required, please do not hesitate to approach us at Vicks_WICK_Support@helenoftroy.eu
We wish you and your wife comfort and wellbeing during this special time.
Best regards,

Hello Elron, thank you for your question. We believe you may have meant to ask whether the Vicks VH845 produces a visible mist rather than “most.” Yes, the VH845 Warm Mist Humidifier does release a clearly visible warm mist when operating. This mist helps to add moisture to the air, supporting comfort during dry seasons and easing symptoms such as congestion or dryness. The mist is safe, soothing, and you’ll notice it rising from the unit during use. Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the mist remains fresh and effective. If any additional information is required, please do not hesitate to approach our Customer Support Team at Vicks_WICK_Support@helenoftroy.eu Best regards, Mariya, Vicks Europe Team

Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi! Thank you for your question. You can use tap water, but the result may vary due to the region you live in and the local tap water.
We recommend cleaning your humidifier once a week or once a month.
Here are some steps to stop bacteria and scale forming in your humidifier.
Take out the water tank and slowly pour 0.5 litres of undiluted, distilled white vinegar into the reservoir on the water tray.
Pour vinegar over the blue locking latch.
Only pour vinegar into the deep reservoir.
Note: Pour slowly to allow the vinegar to flow from the reservoir into the heating chamber.
Leave for 20 minutes to loosen any scale on the heating element.
Steps for removing scale from the water tank:
Pour in more vinegar, replace the cap and swish to coat the inside.
Wipe away any scale with a damp cloth.
Remove the mist chimney by sliding the blue latch and lifting it towards the front.
Remove the heating element cover by lifting it off the round part.
Open the round opening and pull the cover away from the chimney.
Wet the brush with vinegar from the water tray.
Scrub the surface of the heating element.
Cover the reservoir and heating chamber to remove mineral deposits.
We hope you find this information useful.

You can, and I do, use essential oils with this. You cant put the oils directly in the water tank, but there is a blue inhalant tray over the steam outlet which is specifically for things like essential oils.
Good day,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We sincerely apologize for any misunderstandings caused.
The Vicks VH845 Warm Mist Humidifier is specifically designed for use with Vicks VapoPads only. We do not recommend adding essential oils, medications, or inhalant liquids directly into the water tank, as this could damage the humidifier and its components, as well as void the warranty.
However, if you’d like to enjoy the benefits of essential oils, you can use Vicks VapoPads, which are pre-saturated with essential oils. To use, simply open the scent pad door on the humidifier, insert up to two pads, and close the door. Additionally, the device features an Inhalant Cup where you can place essential oils for safe use.
We have attached the user manual below for your reference, which provides further details.
