'humdimidifier'

We are a family of humidifiers. When Madeline was little she called them humdimidifiers and it stuck. This is a picture of the one I use (Jeff too). This is the same one my mother used for me every single time I was sick. She would put it on a stool beside my bed at night. We had two, the other was avacado green but I'm not sure what happened to it. They came from Daddy's drug store and the yellow price sticker says 'Lexington $15.95'. It is obviously from the 1970's but works like a charm. The motor still makes the same sound I remember from childhood and it is very comforting even today when I am sick. I am always worried that the motor will burn out eventually and can't be replaced. Since I still have the original box and leaflet inside I went online to try to find another but there are none.


These are Madeline's and Matthew's humdimidifiers. They work but are silent in sound so I prefer mine and the sweet sound of its motor. =) It's not uncommon during the winter months that all of us have one running in our bedrooms.
