I like it, its working great so far, I only use it in my bedroom so its prefect. Its quiet and small, which is what I wanted.

Works almost too well. My son came down with a cold and was very congested. Our old humidifier tank cracked. (It was expensive and the filter didn't last nearly as long as stated, even though we diligently cleaned the whole unit every day it was used.) Anyway, the first night we used the Crane cool mist my son slept through the night and did not here him cough once. The best feature about this unit is you don't need a filter. Just fill it up the tank and turn it on. My best advice is make sure you clean it every morning after the kids wake up. Oh, and it is much faster and easier to clean because there is no filter.

I like my apartment warm and toasty, but the heater also makes it stale and dry; that's when I decided to get a humidifier. Works great for that purpose.
I have the dragon - it was the cheapest version and I'm not particularly picky.
Pros:
1. Very cute. Little bugger with his peering eyes gives an eerie sense of company.
2. Works great. Its been running non-stop for 2 weeks (other than during water refills) and no problems. Cranks out a lot of mist.
3. Very very fine mist that spreads quickly. Won't get anything wet. I held the back of my hand against the mist for a minute or so, and though I could feel the mist for sure, it did not get my hand wet at all.
4. There's a control knob for the volume of humidity - and it actually works very well and is reasonably sensitive.
5. Lasts nearly 2 days on a single water refill - I have the knob turned two-thirds of the way.
Cons:
1. Mist somehow isn't as cool as I expected (based on the unscientific back-of-hand test)
2. To fill it with water, you need to remove the reservoir from the unit, turn the reservoir upside down, unscrew a cap, hold it under a tap, screw back the cap back on, turn the reservoir back right side up, and place it back into the unit. I would have really appreciated a way to just bring a mug of water and pour it in. Particularly so when the manual recommends filtered water and you have a Brita mug filter. Also has a curved plastic handle at the top of the reservoir which forces you to hold its weight awkwardly while filling it in the sink rather than let it rest in the sink (for fear of breaking the handle).
3. Instructions say to keep it at least 2 feet from the floor, but don't mention why. I like knowing why I'm doing something. For ex, if its just the efficiency of humidity circulation, I wouldn't worry too much about a stand that's just 1 foot from the ground. If its safety on the other hand, I'd be more careful. As it is, I have it standing on a banker's box since I found no other unused elevated surface with any space for it.

The shipment is quick, however, the product is not functioning well, it keeps shutting off.

Bought this for my daughters room (the cow version). It was cute. A tadbit bigger than I expected but that was no problem. I used it for a week and every morning for the first few days, when I woke up the red light would be on. There was still water in it and it still seemed to emitting mist but the red light wouldn't go off no matter how many times I cleaned it or adjust the water level sensor as the directions suggested. Eventually got tired of messing with the darn thing and returned it.
Separately, I found it annoying that the tank dripped water when you took it off of the base to refill it. Also, on the cow, the top part with the spots and the horns is separate piece form the rest of the tank and when you take it off, there was also a lot of condensation built up between those two pieces so that dripped everywhere also.
One bright spot - the return process via Amazon was really convenient.
