Want a humidifier where you do not have to worry about mold growing in all of the little nooks and crannies? Enter Carepod humidifier- my favorite humidifier brand and worth the money. A few years ago I opened up our Crane humidifier and was grossed out by what I saw – white and black dots everywhere. I threw it away. Was I going to have to do this every year? I thought “there has to be a better humidifier that I do not throw away every year.” I became hyper-fixated on finding the perfect one – one that worked, had low maintenance, no nooks and crannies and was easy to clean.

A humidifier is good for a lot of things – especially for any respiratory or skin issues. We live in Ohio and whenever we turn our heat on, without fail Rebecca’s eczema will start to flare and her nosebleeds will start up again. I watched a lot of YouTube tutorials and was almost convinced to buy the Canopy humidifier. However, you had to buy filters and I kept reading reviews that it leaked on their nightstand. The Carepod humidifier solved all those issues perfectly.

Carepod humidifier differentiators

Easy, painless humidifier cleaning process

The cleaning process on all models is so easy. Regardless of the model, there are only three pieces to take out and clean. And NO nooks or crannies for mold to hide. You can even sanitize and boil the main humidifier piece on the mini and all of the humidifier interior components on the other models. This thorough cleaning process makes it very easy to care for the Carepod humidifier.

No filters needed

The filterless design is another excellent feature of the Carepod humidifier.I hate having to remember to change out filters, so I love that I don’t have to remember to do this – just keep it clean!

Simple to use

Simplicity is at the core of the Carepod humidifier’s design. Not only does it look sleek, but it is easy to use and clean. I try to use distilled water only for the humidifiers, but will use our sink water (reverse osmosis) or regular sink water from time to time. I do this because then you have to do less de-scaling, but have heard from several people that they use regular water. It is an expensive humidifier, so I follow the company recommendations just to ensure I am getting my money’s worth!

How do I know which humidifier to get?

Carepod has four different models: an entry-level Carepod Mini, Carepod One Carepod Cube and Carepod Cube Plus. Each Carepod humidifier model is designed to meet specific needs.

  • Carepod Mini – 350 sq ft/ unit | Cool mist: The smallest and cheapest option.
    • This is the humidifier we have! It is all see through plastic. We had two of them and love them. We have had for 2.5 years of using it mainly from November to March and have not had any issues! However, we did end up upgrading to the newest model because I wanted the warm mist option for sickness.
  • Carepod One – 500 sq ft/unit | Cool mist: This one is about twice the price of the mini, but is made of stainless steel.
    • Missy has this one and loves it. It comes with a stainless steel reservoir for the water
  • Carepod Cube – 700 sq ft/unit | Cool + Warm mist
    • This one has both cool and warm mist, which differentiates it from the lower two models.
  • Carepod Cube Plus700 sq ft/unit | Cool + Sanitizing Warm mist
    • This premium model has new built-in heat sanitization technology capable of killing bacteria within a 2 hour cycle.1 The other two features that differentiate it from the base Carepod Cube model is that it has an automatically adapts humidity levels based on your room and has the ability to turn off the display lights. We ended up upgrading to this one after I bought it for my nephew’s room and LOVE it. A great upgrade. The warm mist really makes such a difference when you are congested. This model offers the ultimate Carepod humidifier experience.
