Violated my Gold-Medal-Winning Cheapskate Award Amateur Standing by buying a Humidifier
Recent dry, dry, nasal passages when I slept.
Used to drape a towel on a chemistry-type ringstand dipping into a pot of water with a small fan blowing across it in my bedroom. One of the reasons I'm a World-Class Cheapskate.
Real ugly.
Worked fine.
Uses tap water.
Broke down and got an ultrasonic room humidifier.
Real pretty.
Works fine.
Needs distilled water.
But you have to take the top off and turn it upside-down to fill it. Messy, awkward procedure. Of all the dumb, disergonomic designs !
Couldn't they just have put a fill cap on the top?
Or would that have spoiled the nice, clean, artistic lines of the machine?
Are they all like that? Sort of like having to fill your gas tank by turning your car upside down.
At least they put a handle on it, though.
