Mother of Twins
I bought this for my sons room. It's an ok humidifier, the frog is much easier to fill and had two openings rather than one. We've moved this one to our room for occasional use and the Frog version is our full time one. The shape of the penguin is difficult to fill in standard sinks but the frog is shorter and more round. If you are noise sensitive though you may want to consider a different model. This does make trickling noises when it's on.

Leaks like a seive
As a humidifier, this gadget does the job well. However, trying to fill or move the humidifier will result in drenched feet. The main reservoir is shoddily constructed, and the plastic fits together poorly at the top of the device. So when you remove the reservoir and turn it over in order to fill it, any water remaining (which there'll always be) pours out the seals at the top.

I'd recommend finding a different humidifier. However, you could get lucky and pick one of these up that doesn't leak... This device'd be 5-starred if I'd been so lucky. ;)

Might be cute, but the humidifier fails after 2 month
I bought the penguin humidifier when my daughter had a cold. My wife and I picked it out, because it was cute, and a decent price.

Every time we filled it, (and yes we followed all instructions with the unit) the output knob had to be adjusted, so that mist would come out. This just kept getting worse and worse. After about 60 days (using it only at night) the unit quit working.

Evidently Crane does not exist on the internet, nor can you actually find who makes these units, to try to get a replacement.

All in all a complete waste of $30. Dont get it. Get something more expensive, and a brand name you can trust.

Cool and Quiet!
I bought this for my little girl's room and it's pretty darn cool. It runs so quiet that I couldn't tell it was working at first. Waaaay better than the last humidifier I had, which sounded like a jet engine. The water vapor comes out the top of SpongeBob's head in a fine mist and it has 3 different settings. The best part is the cool night light that makes his entire head glow from within. The only down side is that the light only works when the humidifier is running. It's easy to fill and clean the tank (it has a built in carrying handle)and it's been working great. I'd recommend it.

Cute and Useful
The humidifier makes a little noise, but all in all it works great. I enjoy it and it's definitely cute!
