Crane USA sent a humidifier in partnership with this post. All opinions are my own.

I don’t know if this is true for your family, but winter for us typically means more illnesses go through our house than the rest of the year. Our son has been prone to respiratory colds since he was just a baby, and he likes to pass those around with the rest of us sometimes, too! Our daughter tends to get nosebleeds at the changing of the seasons, especially as we head into winter. We live in a very old house (like, 114 years old) and it gets SO dry, especially at night. This year we decided to add humidifiers into our life to add some moisture to the air and help us get healthy faster when we do come down with something. I turned to Crane USA for our daughter’s bedroom humidifier and it’s been such an improvement!

Crane Drop Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier

Since our daughter’s bedroom has a mint green, pink, and white color scheme, I went with the Pink & White Drop Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier for her. There are a huge variety of colors available for the Drop Humidifiers, so you can find one to match any bedroom! One of my hesitations in getting a humidifier for our daughter’s room was the idea of replacing a filter constantly. We had a humidifier for years and we’d have to change the filter so often; most of the time I’d forget to change the filter and it would get moldy. It was awful because then we were pumping bad moisture into the air. The Drop Humidifiers from Crane USA don’t require a filter which is perfect for my forgetful mom-brain! Even though there’s no filter, you don’t have to worry about mold or bacteria growth; these humidifiers have a clean control antimicrobial material in the base.

The Drop Humidifier is so easy to fill; i just remove the 1 gallon tank and fill it from our water purifier. You can use sink water if you prefer, and the tank fits into most, but we have fairly high mineral content in our water which leaves residue so I prefer to use filtered water. This humidifier works best in rooms that are 500 feet or less, as most bedrooms are. It runs so quietly that our daughter doesn’t even notice it while she sleeps. One of my favorite features is that you can rotate the nozzle at the top to aim the moist air away from things that could be damaged.

Since running the humidifier in our daughter’s room, she hasn’t had any nosebleeds (knock on wood!). I’ve also noticed that when she does have a cold, she doesn’t cough as much or seem so congested at night. This is a huge deal because we’ve suffered some terrible sleepless nights in the past just due to congestion. It’s nice to have this simple remedy! The humidifier runs up to 24 hours and if the water tank gets empty, the machine has an auto-off function to prevent any damage.

We are loving this Drop Humidifier and it’s such a cute addition to our daughter’s room, too! Crane USA also offers a line of Adorable Humidifiers which are perfect for kids and babies rooms!

    I keep thinking about getting a humidifier for my bedroom. It’s very dry in my house.

    My husband and I were literally just saying we absolutely NEED to get new humidifiers for our home. Our gas heat dries out the house so bad that we all have dry throats and cracked, chapped lips and nose bleeds constantly. It’s so horrible! We bought the Vicks Humidifiers, once for each bedroom (3), plus one for the living room because that’s really where we all spend most of our time together in the house. They honestly SUCK! You can’t fill them up to the fill line, and if you do they literally SPIT water out at you, and it’s SCALDING water too because the machine heats up the water. So I put the water about half way towards the fill line, and that’s where it will start to work, but then once it reaches just 1/4 of the machine it stops all together because it can’t reach the water anymore! Complete waste of money, and hubby wasn’t even thinking when he got them, he threw out the boxes and receipt the night he opened them, straight out to the street for the trash man to come and take them away.

    So needless to say, I’m really hoping I can win this giveaway, because I would choose one of those Drop Humidifiers like you have in your daughter’s room so we can see how good they are, and if we see as much of a difference as you do we’ll definitely be buying 3 more!!
