Our take on the Vornado EVDC500 Energy Smart Evaporative Humidifier

The Vornado EVDC500 is an evaporative humidifier for medium to large rooms. It uses a wick and fan to add moisture without a visible mist, so it won't leave white dust on furniture. Vornado's DC motor makes it quieter and more efficient than the AC motors in many rivals, and it has a built-in humidistat that cycles the fan to hold your target humidity. It suits people who want low-maintenance, whole-room humidification and don't mind replacing wicks. Against ultrasonic rivals it is quieter and cleaner but needs more frequent wick changes.

Questions and answers

How is an evaporative humidifier different from an ultrasonic one?
It blows air through a wet wick instead of vibrating water into a mist. That means no visible mist and no white mineral dust, but it humidifies more slowly.
How often does the wick need replacing?
Vornado recommends replacing the wick every one to two months, sooner with hard water or heavy use. A stiff, crusty or smelly wick is due for a change.
Does it shut off when the water runs out?
Yes. It shuts down automatically when the tank empties, so the fan doesn't run dry.
Can I set a target humidity?
Yes. The humidistat lets you choose a level, and the fan cycles on and off to hold it.
How big a room will it handle?
It is best for medium to large rooms such as a bedroom or living room. In very open spaces it will run more and need more refills.
What comes in the box?
The humidifier, one wick and a quick-start guide. Check whether a spare wick is included before relying on it for the season.
Where is the Vornado EVDC500 Energy Smart Evaporative Humidifier cheapest?
At Best Buy, for $99.99, 17% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
