Customer Reviews of Holmes HM5700 Warm Mist Humidifier
Works well but brakes often I have bought this humidifier ... twice. It works well, but with proper maintainence the electronic control panel broke. I sent it back to the company and got a brand new one in return. I used it in the same manner, and now the new one's control pannel is not working. I would suggest finding another humidifier.
(OWNED 4 YEARS) Best Humidifier I've ever owned!!
We have been using this humidifier for over three(now 4) years.
I'll go through all others complaints.
1. Broken handle. All humidifiers are built a little flimsy; just be careful! Ours has never broken. When full don't be tough with the handles. This isn't a pickup truck people!!
2. Won't humidify room. This is not a whole house unit. We have used it regularly in bedrooms and small apartments and considering the size it works very well. If you have forced air do not leave the fan on continuoisly (although we do occasionally) and close the door to your bedroom. When the heat kicks in; ours turns on and recovers the humidity in the room easily.
3. Leaks. There is a built in resevoir area for leaking. Ours over three years has only done this a few times and never enough to actually leak on the floor or outside the machine.
If your unit leaks all the time use hot water. Cold water will expand on the machine as it heats a little; forcing extra water out. Hot water will cool and shrink as it sits on the machine.
4. Not accuate. You got me? Ours has been perfect.
5. Rotted seal. Duh! When done with the unit; store with cap off of the tank. This will avoid all humidity problems.
6. Hard to clean. All burner humidifiers are hard to clean. I clean ours about once a week. I wash out all the peices by hand and hot water to remove minerals. The burner area itself I usually use hot water and my fingers to loosen up the minerals. I don't think this is too bad. I leave some minerals on the burner itself to avoid damage but who cares? I've only used vinegar at the end of the seasons. We do however have soft water.
I hope this helps people. We've used ours every evening and night in Minnesota. We've never had any problems. It even heats up the room a little which the misses likes a great deal.

The seal below the burner started leaking into the machine.
This caused the machine to do some strange things.
So, I dried it out; and cleaned the inside of the machine.
It ends up that the single screw that holds the burner and seal down on machine came loose. This might explain all the problems with leaking and such others have had. Worked great since then.
Looks like we'll get another year out of it!!!
Needs improvement
This worked well for one season then leaked water everywhere. The water shorted out the controls - was lucky there wasn't a fire. It never worked the same again. I gave it two stars because when it did work, it kept the humidity at a comfortable level. If I buy a digital humidifier, I'd look for one with the controls anywhere but under the water supply.
