I own an earlier version of this humidifier. It was less than four years old and cleaned and maintained according to the manufacturer recommendations. The unit malfunctioned and caught fire - smoke and flames!!- when we were sleeping causing thankfully only smoke damage. Bionaire refused to respond other than to send some forms so I was forced to go to the state and federal consumer agencies. from Amazon.com Purchased this unit on line but not from Amazon this review is not about amazon ....only the bionaire BWM5905-U,... filled it with water, plugged it in,...turned it on,....left the room to do some computer work,...smelled something,....lookin the room,..it had burst in to flames,...flames shooting up 2 feet,...threw a towel over it...threw it outside,....water was coming out the bottom,..flames out the top,...even if it had ran out of water,..which it did not,...it has a fail safe to shut off if empty....so no i would not buy this unit...my family almost died and have about 1000.00 dollars worth of damage to our home and still no humidifier. from Amazon.com I bought this unit a replacement for my Bionaire CM1 which fried after several years of use. This machine seems a little better constructed than that one, although the price has also increased considerably. from Amazon.com I bought this unit a replacement for my Bionaire CM1 which fried after several years of use.

The water reservoir can only hold about half a gallon and slowly emits it over the course of 7-8 hours. from Amazon.com Seems to do its job; used for a medium sized bedroom and the room is not overly humid when the tank is emptied. It is a small humidifier so the water tank will run out before 12 hours (as advertised). A clunky design element is the fact that if the tank runs out (as it usually does since it is my son's room overnight), you have to unplug the unit for ten minutes to reset it before it can be used again. from Amazon.com The valve at the bottom of the tank to supply water to the unit wouldn't work unless it was applied with LOTS of torque. It finally stopped working altogether in about 2 weeks. from Amazon.com
