Well, my 4+ year old humidifier, GE, while still working, was one of the models made in China by Gree and is being recalled. While it worked ok, the recall was because units have been know to overheat and/or burst into flames. Supposedly, I will be getting a check for $219 in the next week or so. When I originally bought this unit, it was basically an emergency, so there was no time to research it. This time I was not in a hurry so I've looked on the internet for reviews. I think I'm now more confused than ever. So, here's my question, what unit do you all think is good? I guess after my recent experience, a US built unit might be nice, however, I'm not really sure how much that really matters. I'm looking for something in the 50 - 70 pint capacity and hopefully quieter than the previous. It also must have a gravity hose drain. It would be really nice if the unit has some kind of remote sensor because the units with an internal sensor must run the fan continuously in order to get accurate humidity readings. I don't really believe this exits, except for the > $1000 built-in units. Thanks.
