Lynnie Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Hi All!!I need some advice please. I would like to buy a Vaporiser, but it seems there are only 2 brands in Oz - Vicks and Taav. I have read reviews that the Vicks vaporiser is very noisy (definitely a no no as I am a very light sleeper), and I have read reviews that the Taav is fantastic.Does anyone have experience with any of these?Thanks :ilikeit: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 We have a Euky bear - we bought it here in Aus. It was the most recommended one.We were told that Vicks is noisy an Taav I think had issues with the plastic melting? (I could be wrong on the second one).I borrowed a Euky bear one from my neighbour and bought one myself as it worked very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynnie Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks Gizmo,I have also heard of Hippo Deluxe - you don't by any chance know that one? I also heard about the Vicks being noisy and Taav untrustworthy.Where did you by the Euky Bear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 I bought it at one of the Wizard pharmacys, but I think Priceline has them too. I have bought the vapourizer eucalyptus oil (optional) specifically for the Euky bear from three other pharmacys - its a easily-available product in Perth.I haven't heard of the Hippo brand, so can't comment on that.

Kurkprop Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 I have the Vicks one and like the noise it makes - a gurlgling sound. The white noise helps me to sleep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
