I'm pretty sure you're supposed to clean all humidifiers frequently or at least empty the water and dry it, which is annoying. I had a CVS brand one, but it stopped working after several months. (I know I didn't clean it enough or use it properly) I took it back and got store credit. (lost my receipt)
We now have the Tiger Crane humidifier, and I'm better about taking the time to empty the water and clean it as needed/directed. The dragon one is awesome though. I mean the steam comes out of its nostrils!!
We have the Crane one too. I was reading reviews on Amazon and that was the only one where no one mentioned it catching on fire. Everyone other one had multiple mentions of it being a fire hazard, so maybe the extra cleaning steps are worth it? That being said, we've only used it once and my H cleaned it, so I'm not too familiar with the intricacies of cleaning it lol!

I have the Crane and a Vicks cool mist. They are very similar and clean the same way. I just dumped and rinsed them every morning and cleaned with vinegar once a week.
Hate to break it to you but they are all the same in that respect. They all say to clean daily. (We do it every week to two weeks) It's just anything with water does that slimed thing, even distilled.
