 I like it so far January 3, 2009
Scott M. Peters
This is my first humidifier. I bought it over a year ago after reading reviews on several different models. This is the second winter I've used it and it has worked well for me. It puts out plenty of vapor for my large bedroom, but I do have it about 3 feet from me for maximum benefit. It goes through about 3/4 of a tank each night as I set it on maximum output and continuous mode. I found that if I set it to a certain humidity level, when it reached that level, it would turn on and off all the time which was pretty annoying. When running in continuous mode, it was very quiet with some gurgling of the water every so often. The tank is pretty easy to fill up by turning it over, unscrewing the filter and filling the tank. I still wonder why they couldn't put the fill mechanism on the top though. That would be an improvement. So far, the reliability has been great. Hope it will keep running well for me.
 Venta-Sonic VS207 1-year review December 8, 2008
Ronald R. Carlton (Dallas, Texas)
After 1-year still works like a charm. Whisper quiet. After letting it sit for most of the Spring through Fall got it back out. Put a new demineralization cartridge on it, started right up.
Pro's:
1. Whisper quiet.
2. No white residue.
3. Increases the humidity in a room quickly.
Con's:
1. Humidity indicator is not accurate, but can be easily worked around.
2. Somewhat awkward to fill.
I would recommend this product.
 CAVEAT EMPTOR: AMAZON.COM'S SUPPLIER, TODAY'S CONCEPT, FAILS TO DELIVER !!!! November 18, 2008

After reading reviews on Amazon.com, I ordered this product from a company called Today's Concept. Four days later I received an e-mail informing me that Today's Concept had experienced a delay in receiving my order, there was a delay in receiving the product from the manufacturer, and they would inform me when shipment would occur. Alternatively,I could phone their Customer Service dept. for shipment info. I phoned, was placed on hold for over 10 minutes before finally being attended. I provided my order number and was informed that the product had shipped two day's prior and that delivery could be expected on 11/20, within about 10-12 days of ordering (which would have been acceptable). Today I received a mysterious e-mail from Amazon.com that my order had been CANCELLED--no reason provided!?!? I am a loyal Amazon.com customer and assume the re-seller, Today's Concept, is responsible for the miscommunication/misunderstanding. I recommend ordering products ONLY direct from Amazon.com. I also suggest that Amazon.com dump this supplier.
Awesome product, third Venta humidifier (all still working)... August 22, 2008

I have two of the original Venta Sonic's that don't have the digital readout and am extremely pleased with them. I read the reviews of this new one and barely bought it... but good lord it's a great product. I don't have a hygrometer but I know I like the humidity where the readout says 45%, easy enough. This is my third humidifier from Venta [all are still working fantastic]. I gotta say something about the silly "white powder" that some people mention in their reviews - they're nuts...period....it's called dust people. There is no white powder whatsoever that comes out of a humidifier. People talk about white stuff on their TV's in their bedrooms - it's called dust; TV's are static magnets. Anyway, awesome product, buy with confidence, and buy the filters from the company's homepage - probably get a better deal on shipping than you would from a third party. Breath freely :)
Great Microbial Chemostat Poor Longevity June 22, 2008

I live in a very arid climate and continue to look for a reliable humidifier. Ultrasonic is the way to go and I was happy with this unit for about 3 months. Unfortunately, the manufacturer advises against sanitizing the unit because the nano-silver nebulizer disk inhibits microbial growth. (Other manufacturers say to sterilize theirs periodically with mild bleach solution.) I doubt the validity of this claim and think such claims should be reviewed by the FDA. The tank basin will accumulate a milky white biofilm with sustained use. This is not calcium deposits from the water - it's a microbial community which forms a mat that you can watch grow (like sea monkeys). The unit is basically a chemostat, or continuous culture medium. It made my family cough while running. Finally the top handle broke while refilling. I will try to get warranty service but in the interim, buyer beware!
