First broke, replacement didn't even turn on
Bought a drought home. Worked night 1 the night 2 started beeping but eventually stopped night 3 it started going crazy lights flickering a d the beeping but this time it wouldn't turn off so took it back. The recent brought it home plugged it in and nothing, it would t even turn on so took that straight back the next day. Got a refund but only after the woman at Argos examined the wire while simultaneously looking at me as if I'd sabotaged it lol.

Not sure.
Low rating for two reasons: color not as shown when bought - was randomly given the opaque white not clear blue tank. So returned. Also would be a big mould risk if not cleaned properly and cleaning instructions included seemed very intense.

Fantastic machine.
Brilliant little machine, my husband said he can definitely feel a difference since using it. Highly recommend this.

Hello and thank you for your interest in our product. For best cleaning routine you could refer to the product manual where you will find a step-by-step guideline. For best performance, the humidifier needs regular cleaning. Every 3 days, empty the tank, rinse it with clean water, remove any buildup, and dry all parts. Don’t leave water sitting in the tank when not in use.
Once a week, remove scale by soaking the tank and reservoir in white vinegar for 15–20 minutes, then rinse well. Also disinfect weekly using a mild bleach solution, letting it sit for 20 minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Never immerse the base in water and avoid detergents or abrasive cleaners.

Hello, thank you for your question regarding the Vicks VUL525 Mini Cool Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier. This product is designed to add moisture to the air in small rooms to help ease general discomforts caused by dryness. When used according to the instructions, it should not create excessive dampness. However, if a humidifier is operated for long periods or set to very high humidity levels, it may lead to condensation on windows or walls. To avoid this, we recommend monitoring the humidity in your room and keeping it within the generally comfortable range of 40–60%. This helps maintain a healthy environment without encouraging dampness or related issues.

I googled it and it says not to use round animals as can affect their respiratory and cause coughing and sneezing. I was going to buy it but not if not safe round my dogs
Only without the vapour inserts. Vicks rub is deadly to cats, for example. Only use distilled water when using around breeds with breathing difficulties such as pugs.

Hello Hale,
Thank you for your interest in our products!
The Vicks VUL525 Mini Cool Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier can be used without the VapoPads. It functions perfectly well as a plain humidifier, adding moisture to the air to help relieve cough and congestion.
Using VapoPads with your humidifier can provide several benefits, enhancing both the effectiveness of the humidifier and your overall comfort, but the humidifier will still work effectively without them.
We hope you find this answers helpful.
