Vicks Portable Steam Inhaler, V1300

The product was just what I wanted, I had misplaced one like it a numbers of years ago and was unable to find one, I was so happy that I was able to find one. It made me feel so happy.

exactly what I wanted to buy- can be used the way you want, I usually ad hot, boiling water with sea salt, aroma from pads is so strong that it stays for 2-3 days so perfect small thing- if that is what you need

I am very satisfied, helping the fall allergy stuffiness. Portable and easy to use. Blowing into it and sniffing afterwards is fantastic.

I was under the impression this was going to be an electric steam vaporizer, but it still worked pretty well with just hot water. The little Vicks pads are slightly overpriced and use of a saline solution worked as well.

It is ok for the price but if you are looking for a real inhaler you should be buying a better product. Basically, you breath the pads that come with the inhaler. If I knew it I would have bought a different product.

I thought that this steam inhaler had a battery-operated liquid mist producer, but it doesn't. You simply heat whatever you want to inhale, put it in the plastic container and use the mask to direct the vapors to your nose. You can do the same thing with a coffee cup. And here's the CATCH - you can't boil the liquid. It can be hot but not boiling. I guess the plastic could melt, or undesirable elements of the plastic composition could get in the liquid and get inhaled. So, you can't even get a good strong steam going before you inhale. If you want the convenience of a mask that directs warm vapor to your nose for eleven dollars, then this is your item.

Feel silly after buying this product (remember the cartoon donkey wearing a dunce cone cap). By the way its advertized, i thought it's a steam inhaler probably running on electricity or battery. But it's just a plastic container where you have to add hot water in it and then inhale. I mean why would anyone buy this. I can add hot water in a mug and inhale it.

better to purchase electric steamers..

The was no more useful than a Vicks pocket Inhaler. Save your money

I don't understand it. I feel like I'm breathing in hot dry air. All the moister get's caught in the cap. Better off using a bowl of hot water.
