Summary: GREAT PRODUCT !!!!!!!
Comment: Since moving to North Carolina a year ago, I have had numerous sinus infections. I have not had one since April and I considered myself lucky.
Well, my luck ran out and I purchased this steamer. I am very pleased with this product. It is easy to use and works great. You have to work with it and find the right level of steam for your use.
I put it on full blast and just move my head an inch or two off of the plastic face piece.
It is well worth the money and it is small enough for you to keep out at all times. It will be a great product for traveling.
You can't beat it for the price.

Summary: My best friend
Comment: I had a stubborn sinus infection while I was pregnant. Since I couldn't take any decongestants, this steamer was my biggest source of relief. It became my best friend.

Summary: Great for singers and people with allergies!
Comment: This is really handy for a singer to have. It's very portable, light, and compact. I really like it. It puts out plain steam to inhale and you can adjust the output. It heats up quickly and puts out steam long enough to sit there for over 10 min at least. I don't have any complaints. Inhaling steam is so good for you, if you have allergies or are battling phlegm or a cold...this will help you so much. I am a singer and use this steamer twice a day and it's helped me with my allergies.

Summary: Good product for the price
Comment: This steamer has helped a lot to relieve my allergy's and post nasal drip. I use it once in the morning and once before bed when I'm symptomatic. I like the small size since it takes very little space in my bathroom. The only downside is it does not turn itself off if you forget. I highly recommend it.

Summary: pretty good one
Comment: I got my Vicks Steam Inhaler a few days ago. I had been choosing between it and the Mabis one. However, the latter costs $20 more so I decided to go with this one considering almost identical review ratings. I would rate it with 4.5 starts, not with 5. There is still a little room for improvement. It is pretty compact and quick. It starts producing steam in about 4 minutes. Yes, you can regulate the amount of steam. But I found that hot air makes me breath faster and, as a result, there is not enough steam produced by the machine between my breaths. Fortunately, I came up with a nice and simple solution. The mask has a few holes in it to mix the steam with some fresh air. If I cover with my fingers some or all three holes I get enough steam with every inhalation. It's pretty convenient, at least, for me and allows to (manually) regulate the amount of steam.
Another thing important for me was a possibility to use oil. Neither Vicks or Mabis inhaler assume that you can directly add aroma oil to water. Both brands sale their own inhaler pads designed to work with their machines. But the choice of oils is very limited. By the way, the Vicks Inhaler comes with a disposable pad good for one time use. Some people reported that they had still added a few drops of oil. For some it worked fine, for the others it didn't work that well screwing in some way the water heating surface. What I did is I bought this refill kit (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XPX1HG) and it's been working great for me. You can put a pad directly on the plastic thing with the holes the steam comes out. The only difference with the original pad is form but it works great. It does not mess with the water heating surface and you can refill those cotton pads with any oil you want. For the future, I'm going to buy cotton pads and oil separately. I prefer to use calendula and there is no pads or kits coming with calendula extract.
