Crane Adorable Cool Mist Humidifier

KyLee D.

weeThink

Fun fact: newborns are nose breathers, so if they're stuffed up, they can't do what they do best... eat and sleep. Named the "adorable" humidifier for a reason, this little guy will help your little guy with his snacking and his snoozing, while staying super quiet.

  • From Crane

    Even if you’re feeling great, our Adorable Humidifiers are must-haves. From smooth skin to shiny hair to cared-for furniture, they keep you and your home looking beautiful and feeling comfortable.

    Humidifiers add moisture to indoor air, relieving congestion from the common cold and flu and soothing scratchy throats, dry skin and eyes, and irritated sinuses. Perfect for babies, adults, and everyone in between, a humidifier’s additional moisture thins the mucus in the sinuses, making it easier to breathe. (And we know that when it comes down to your family’s health, you’re all about breathing easy.)

  • What you need to know

    • Ultrasonic cool mist operation
    • Increases air moisture for easier breathing and a good night’s sleep

    • Relieves cough, cold, and flu symptoms, including nasal congestion, dry cough, sinus irritation, nose bleeds, dry skin

    • 1 gallon water tank runs whisper quiet up to 24 hours
    • Mists up to 2.1 gallons of moisture per day

    • Effectively humidifies rooms up to 250 square feet
    • Auto shutoff safety sensor

    • Uses less energy than a standard household light bulb

    • Does not require a filter

    I have several humidifiers in my home and love that this one does the job with a cool mist while being so adorable. Great product and easy to descale/clean. Mar 29, 2023

  • This humidifier is only OK because you have to refill it and it barely last the whole night. I also didn’t love the style of it and how it’s so “loud looking” so we don’t use it anymore Feb 06, 2021

    • Amy Y.

    • Van Meter, Iowa

    These Crane humidifiers are not only adorable but also very practical. These keep babies noses from getting too dry. Easy to clean and fill. Dec 26, 2020

  • Works well, and is cute. Part of me thinks they should make one you can wall mount, that's a bit more airo-dynamic. Jul 13, 2020

  • We have this one in the Elephant and though we haven’t had to use it a ton it has helped us when the baby was sick. I really like that you can control the level of humidity. Apr 21, 2020

  • Best one I’ve had. Super easy to keep clean and fill. Has a great range of levels. Easy to move. Feb 02, 2020

  • We have the elephant and it’s just the sweetest touch in my baby’s room. Works so wonderfully Jan 26, 2020

  • We have this from our first child. Can be a pain to clean and if you aren't diligent about it then it can make the room seem smokey. Cute concept and makes the kid not scared of it. Jan 16, 2020

  • I love this. We keep it in our daughters room in the fall/winter months to keep her nasal passages moist. Its so cute to look at and easy to clean. Sep 12, 2019

  • As soon as we started using this, my son started sleeping longer at night. Not sure if it was a coincidence, but I was one happy mama. Super cute styles too. We have the hippo. May 04, 2019

  • We have the elephant. It is so cute and works fine but needs to be sanitized weekly and has way too many nooks and crannies and out of reach spots to do a thorough job. Looking for a replacement. Apr 10, 2019

  • We have the Owl model. I love this humidifier, however I don't like the film it leaves on the product, and that you cannot fill it up from the top. Its a hassle to flip, unscrew and fill every night. Mar 11, 2019

  • We have the owl and love it! Diligent cleaning is needed as with any humidifier but otherwise works great! Feb 06, 2019

  • We have the hippo and the vapor comes out of the ears. I don’t like that the condensation collects on the removable plastic hippo face plate.the lowest setting will last us a few days! Dec 08, 2018

  • This keeps my 2 boys from getting sick. I love that it’s not loud like another one we had. It’s adorable too. It’s a must during the winter or flu season. Sep 26, 2018

  • Adorable design and easy to clean (we watched youtube tutorials to help!). Safe for little ones to touch and quiet enough not to notice in any room. Helps major during cold season. Sep 12, 2018

  • Love this humidifier! Sooooo cute, adjustable and lasts all night. Keeps the room cool and moist, great for colds and dry winter air. Sep 05, 2018

  • This works well as a humidifier. I feel safe having it in the room with the kids. They come in cute designs. Ours eventually did get hard water built up on it. Aug 04, 2018

  • Although this humidifier is really cute we had a major mold buildup. It was very hard to clean. Jun 03, 2018

    Hi Stacey, We are sorry you had a bad experience with our humidifier. All humidifiers operate with water. The best way to disinfect humidifiers is a few cap fulls of white vinegar to a half gallon of water. Then let it sit for 30 mins and rinse. Crane has great customer care! For anymore questions please contact Kerry@crane-usa.com Sep 07, 2018

  • I like that it helps the Air but it’s a pain to dry it out every single day when I’m busy enough with all the other daily duties Apr 30, 2018

  • We have the elephant and it works great. Love that it's adjustable and it'll run on high all night without running out. Apr 26, 2018

  • We have two different animals, one for each of our kids' rooms. They work great and are easy to clean, plus they are cute. Feb 09, 2018

  • Cute, but difficult to clean. After not using for a season, it collected obvious mold from moisture that I hadn't be able to adequately remove. Dec 23, 2017

  • Must have for room where baby sleeps to help her breathing and dry skin. Nov 25, 2017

  • We have the elephant humidifier and my kids love it! It’s an adorable way to add moisture to the air. Nov 19, 2017

  • We got the owl to go with my son's owl themed nursery. It works well too Sep 18, 2017

    • Erin W.

    • Escondido, California

    Easy to clean, easy to use and produces a lot of cool moisture (or you can adjust it down as much as you want). Jul 10, 2017

  • These are great for kids room. You have to have a humidifier for when the kids get sick! Jun 30, 2017

    • Ruby G.

    • Spanaway , Washington

    Definitely, a must for sick babies and older siblings (especially if you're a parent like me) who tries to avoid over the counter medicine. Jun 20, 2017

  • Love this humidifier. It produces a ton of moisture and although it did break, was able to replace right away. It works far better than the vicks ones I had previously bought. Completely recommend! Jun 16, 2017

    • Liz S.

    • HONOLULU, Hawaii

    This is super cute but very hard to clean causing a slime to build up. I hated to use it thinking about what we were breathing in. Mar 02, 2017

    Hi Liz, Since all humidifiers run on water, it is incredibly important to disinfect the tank once per week. A great natural way to clean is to add a few cap fulls of white vinegar and shake.

You can email them at customer-service@crane-usa.com, call them at 888-599-0992, or livechat with them on our website! http://crane-usa.com/customer-care/ Mar 02, 2017

  • My son has the crane train humidifier just like this one and so far I like it. I like that it doesn't use filters because i was going through so many when I used the Vicks starry night one. Feb 18, 2017

  • Its super cute and small it fits right on my headboard. We use it when my daughter is sick and it helps so much. Her pediatrician actually recommended it. Jan 26, 2017

  • These are really cute but super hard to clean so they build up slime all over the inside of the tank. You can't get your hand inside so you can't clean it appropriately. Big let down! Jan 21, 2017

  • We have the elephant one and we love it! So cute and my kids think it's so fun. Used for colds and helps a lot. The adults even use it when we need a humidifier Jan 21, 2017

  • This holds so much water, it sits right in our bedroom. I only have to fill it every other day or every 2 days. Jan 16, 2017

  • I actually got this for myself when I was sick and pregnant! It worked great every night, but then started turning off randomly. Ended up with a different crane product and it has been great! Jan 01, 2017

  • i loved this at first but once filling it up halfway with water i bumped the tub and cracked the whoke thing:( Dec 31, 2016

Everyone
  • Q: The instructions say you cannot put the humidifier on wood or carpet. What surface area would you suggest putting it on?

    asked by Secretly Expecting - Oct 14, 2014

  • I put mine on a shelf. My friend had the same one and put hers on a table. We haven't had any problems at all!

    Shelly W. - Oct 14, 2014

  • Funny timing - I used this humidifier for the past several years with my son no problem, sitting on his wood furniture our the wood floor. But tonight, the one I just bought for my daughter was leaking everywhere. I can see why this would be the rule if this generally happens. It soaked the rug it was sitting on and probbaly would have ruined the wood furniture if it was on it.

    Kristin H. - Oct 14, 2014

  • We have ours on a painted wood table and all seems to be well even with one small leak.

    Jennifer E. - Oct 14, 2014

  • Ours is on top of a dresser. I do put a mat underneath it because condensation can form around it, but we haven't had a leak in a year+ of having it. The mist does settle on the surface so it can be a bit damp after running it for a while - I wipe down the dresser every morning and we haven't had any issues.

    Anna T. - Oct 14, 2014

  • I set ours on a wooden chair or stool, but with a towel underneath it.

    Lauren L. - Oct 14, 2014

  • We keep ours on a tiny little Ikea side table so that we can easily move it around the room as needed. We haven't had any leaks, but I'd recommend a surface that's easy to wipe off bc it will drip sometimes when refilling/reassembling

    Heather C. - Oct 14, 2014

  • Ours is on top of a Billy Bookshelf from IKEA. We haven't had any leaking in 2 1/2 years. We usually have it set about halfway, though when we've had it up to max, I can see how it would damage furniture over time. When we travel with it I put a towel under it to protect my mother's carpet, just in case. ;-)

    Alexandra A. - Oct 14, 2014

  • I keep ours on a plastic serving tray so it can be moved from room to room and placed on any surface. I think just as long as you don't have it cranked all the way up (causing excess moisture to land on the surface it's sitting on), it should be fine.

    Jenn V. - Oct 14, 2014

  • We ended up putting ours on top of a cookie sheet on our wood table....
