Veridian Healthcare Steam Inhaler Respiratory Vapor Therapy, Green, 1 Count (Pack of 1)

I have used 3 nasal steamers over the past 15 years and this is the BEST. 1. All the steamers have some good qualities. I replaced the first one because I used a blend of essential oils, and ruined the pull out tray. I replaced the 2nd one because I ruined the bottom tray in spite of attempting to line it with foil. THIS ONE HOWEVER, so far is perfect! KEEP READING!!! 2. Here’s how it works. You put water in the water reservoir inside the machine. It will boil when you turn it on. The bottom tray has 2 compartments. One has a tube that goes down in the water you put in it. The other compartment is where excess moisture drops through for eventual disposal. ON THIS STEAMER the side with the tube is larger than the other side! Enabling me to insert a small paper cup ( Dixie Bathroom) into the space. Now I can add essential oils to the water safely. After using 2 or 3 times, I replace the paper cup. 3. The excess moisture escapes into the smaller compartment of the tray. 4. Depending upon how long you wish your steam treatment to last, you may want to add a little water to the side with the tube and empty the smaller side. The water boiling in the reservoir lasts as long as needed. IMHO. 5. In addition, this steamer has a larger mask you can use to stem your face. IN CASE YOU ARE WONDERING: the essential oils that I use are Clove, Thyme, & Cinnamon. Hope this helps someone! BUY THIS STEAMER!

I started suffering from LPR a couple years ago and over the last six months it got worse. I did all the research and everything I was suppose to (Dr. Koufman's diet, don't eat 4 hours before bedtime... etc). I improved but not all the way. I tried drinking Alkaline water and it helped but the problem is it wouldn't get to the larynx and airways. So I bought this steam inhaler with the intent to try steam inhaling Essentia 9.5ph water to denature Pepsin in my larynx and airways. It seems to work! I have been using this inhaler a few times a day, including if I feel the symptoms coming on. This unit works great. It sometimes gets pretty hot towards the end of the cycle but you just back off. It is very simple to use. I am posting this review for any LPR sufferers looking for relief. This is definitely worth a try. Also, I could have written a ton more about LPR and why this works, but I didn't want this to be too long and assumed if you have LPR and are here you already have the info. Edit 11-7-17> Unit continues to work great and I can't imagine managing my LPR without it at this point. I use it on average 3 to 4 times a day. I tested the ph of the steam residual and while it drops a full point due to the heating process it is still about 8.5. So it is important to start with the 9.5ph water or above since it needs to be a ph above 8 to denature Pepsin. This is not a cure by any means but rather a treatment of the symptoms, which does help the tissue heal as well. Still trying to get the diet thing right... issues come and go. I hope this helps.

This was my 2nd purchase of this. My first one lasted 8 years and worked great so I ordered another one. However the second one stopped working 2 1/2 months since I got it. It just won't turn on. So now I have to get another brand. I am very disappointed.

The product is great, it produces much steam but gives a bit of a hassle. You must feed water to it in 2 different areas in order for it to turn on. The first time the product was sent, it would pop off the top part, and it would rarely turn on. I requested a return. The second one that was sent to me was much better. I would not say that this product replaces a sauna, but when saunas close at near midnight, this product never closes and therefore: I would suggest this product to anyone who wants a relative ammount of steam for their face/throat. It is a fantastic product for alergies, and I use it for the beauty/face mask, and it has worked wonders for me. It clears up acne like any sauna would, and it is so convenient that it surpasses any other steam inhaler by FAR.

I wasn't sure about buying one of these. I have this nagging cough that won't seem to go away and someone suggested a different brand. After some research comparing multiple brands I decided to give the Veridian a shot. The main reason I opted for this one was the large mask. I have a rather large nose and my coughing stems from post nasal drip so I felt it was necessary to get something I was sure was going to allow for easy steam inhalation through my nose. Secondly I opted for this one because the reviews seemed to state competing companies did not provide much steam. I didn't really have much hope, but it was worth a shot. When the package arrived I opened it immediately and assembled it for use before bed. The small mask is basically worthless for me (it's VERY small! It was easy to assemble and heated up quickly (like seconds). For those stating that the particles were too big there is an adjustment lever toward the base of the tube that allows you to switch particle sizes (read your manual) The output of steam was surprisingly good! It went for about 8 minutes or so and never got too hot. I should mention a couple times during the steam session I had a coughing bout, so I wasn't really thinking the end result would work. Once it was complete however the coughing was non existent...temporarily. I was cough free for about 2 hours then a small coughing fit came back. I have noticed after a few uses that my coughing fits are not as bad and are fewer and further between.
