After four humidifiers, I'm happy with this one

Okay, so I've tried a lot of humidifiers. I'm a very picky consumer when it comes to air moisture. What I was looking for...a humidifier that actually kept me from waking up with a sore throat, a humidifier that didn't put white "dust" mist all over the place, one that was easy to fill and clean, and one that didn't make too much noise. So far, this guy has done the trick. I'd give it a four out of five stars on the noise and the mist. I can sleep with the noise level, it's more like a fan noise...and that is because it is a steam unit, so it's making steam noise. The cycle gurgle is barely heard when it does happen. I do notice I have to dust more often when I use a humidifier but this is one of the least offensive in that department. Also, with some humidifiers, you can notice a "film" in the back of your throat after a night of humidifying but this one is very clean. As far as the warm mist, we live in Arizona and I wish there was a cool mist that fit the bill, but I've tried so many and I think I'll just stick with what works. I haven't noticed any need to drop the thermo to make up for the difference.
