The 10 Best Humidifiers For People With Sinus Problems

An unusual option that doesn't require any electricity, the EasyComforts Room (about $15) is a set of two clay spheres that are surprisingly effective, given their simple design. They're especially nice for international travel, since you don't have to worry about voltages.

The Everlasting Comfort (about $50) can hold 1.6 gallons of water, so depending on what setting you're using, it can last for up to 50 hours between refills. When set to high, it covers large rooms quite quickly, so you won't have to wait long to feel its effects.

If you want to get some extra heat during the cold winter months, consider the Vicks Warm (around $39). Affordable and effective, its one-gallon tank only needs to be changed every 12 hours, so you can turn it on before you go to sleep and know that it will keep running all night long.

If you hate getting up to change settings, you'll love the fact that the Air Innovations Digital (around $78) comes with a handy remote control that can adjust the mist, set a delayed start, and more. It also comes in four different colors, so you can pick one that matches your style.

The matte black exterior of the UrPower Ultrasonic (around $43) will blend in with any decor, whether you need it in your bedroom, living room, or home office. It has three different output settings, so you can pick one that suits your needs, depending on the weather.

You can take the portable PureGuardian Desktop (about $33) with you wherever you go, which is great if you ever have to deal with over-air-conditioned offices or hotel rooms. Even in close quarters, it's quiet enough that it shouldn't bother you while you try to work or sleep.

With a touch panel and a remote, the Levoit Whisper-Quiet (about $90) gives you complete control. You can see the current humidity level, adjust the mist, switch between warm and cool, set a timer, or put it on auto mode and just let it do its thing.

If you're willing to spend some money up front in exchange for long-term benefits, the Venta Airwasher (around $299) might be what you're looking for. It requires a lot less maintenance than most alternatives and it's incredibly energy efficient.

Apartment-dwellers and frequent travelers will appreciate the Pure Enrichment MistAire's (around $40) compact size. Taking up less than a square foot of space, it still manages to create an impressive amount of mist that's just right for a medium-sized room.

Turn on the Honeywell Germ Free (appx. $53), and after a while you probably won't even notice it. Surprising for a model its size, it barely makes any noise. Plus, the interface doesn't have any beeping sounds or bright lights, so it won't wake you up in the middle of the night.
