My Whisper suddenly stopped working yesterday (had it less than a year)--turns on but does not mist. Changed water & plastic cup but still no mist.

Had this happen to me once. I had too much liquid in both chambers. Only put in sugg amts. and see if that helps.

I have only had my diffuser for a couple of months so have not had any issues yet. I have filled it a little too full with water and it would not work otherwise no problems. I see someone else said to use Dawn to clean it. I would try a little vinegar first.

Hey dont check this email too often.Yes its the same for mine as well. Had it for less then 6 months Pretty dissapointed as i took very good care of itand was expecting for it to last alot longer.

Did you check to see where it is in the cycle and possibly try to reset that?

same here- tried cleaning it, no luck- when I first turn it on a lot of mist comes out and then hardly any, then puffs, then nothingedit- just poured out a lot of the water out of the cup and it works beautifully again! I think it requires a lot less water in the cup than you might think...I misplaced the measuring cup that came with mine. Although if yours doesn't mist at all that's probably not the problem....edit again- it ran out of water before the cycle was done...so that doesn't seem right to me either

I used a little rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab to clean the heating element in mine about a year ago. It worked for about a year stopped working then has worked fine since I cleaned it. I think using distilled water keeps it from getting gunky around the heating element from minerals, etc in the water.

Not surprised. Mine isn't producing much mist and I expect it will quit any day now. Unhappy with this purchase and not cheap. I would send it back or email the manufacturer.

I've had mine about 2 1/2 years. The fan still turns on, but the little metal plate no longer vibrates, so of course no mist is produced. :( Yes, it will also produce little or no mist if it has too much or too little water in the lower portion, but sometimes it just goes kaput regardless of any trouble shooting. For $90 I would have liked it to last longer. It was great while it lasted.

We have the same issue, but did nothing to cause it and it stopped working. It was cool for about a day! Expensive to die so quickly. (This was for my husband, and he was careful with it.)

I would contact Essick. Last year my humidifier didn't work but just groaned when I first started it. It was only the second year I'd had it. I called Essick and learned that the year before, the motors were defective in a group that had been sold. Because I had my receipt which I faxed to Essick, a new humidifier was sent to me a no charge. It worked well last season and is working well this season with new filters. I doubt that your problem is a filter issue. Good luck.

Mine would beep it the water level was low. If your is filled to the proper level and there is no mist, then I think that you have a defective mister.

Mine hasn't been working either. I thought maybe it was because the company sent me a replacement filter because this one was out of stock. It had the same "button" you push to get the indicator started but it never changed.

My unit does mist and does not bubble. Might want to contact the manufacturer on this one. When you find out please let us know. Good luck.

The batteries may be worn out and should be replaced. Next, if this doesn't work, take a pin and stick it in the squirt jet to clear up any blockage. Next check the fluid level in the bottle. It may be empty.

I have two of these. One of mine died recently too. It would beep repeatedly, start up and then just shut off. I didn't pursue it though because I had overfilled it and thought it could be water damage.

Sorry to be the banter of bad news, but it does sound as though you have a defective unit. The good news is you are still under warranty. Do not waste another minute; call the store where you bought it and have it returned. This device is a no brainer; you plug it up, turn it on and watch it go...the spray should work with ease and percision. Buying defective items does happen in life; sorry you had to experience that. Best wishes with everything.

Yes you're right mine too stopped working. I loved it so much when it worked. I will not purchase another one.

Try moving the switch in the back several times. Check and make sure that the fluid jar is snapped in the unit all the way. If the unit is still warm it should be still working. Make sure you have power at the plug. The only other thing you can do is contact the company an see if you can get a replacement.

Mine doesn't work. Power is not sufficient to water pick your mouth. Try smelling water from shower in a glass. If it is the device, I would return it. Mine doesn't smell. Melissa

Mine has quit working too. We have used citric acid, cleaned the filters, etc.

I also thought that mine was broken ad well after a short amount of time. mine doesn't seem to work if I fill it past the 300 ml line. I would suggest trying filling half. Thats how I get mine to produce the mist.

We ran into the same problem.. I bought for my sister and she said she had hers for about the same amount of time and then it stopped working. I would go with a different brand if I were you!

My unit stopped working after only a month. I tried to follow all the steps to fix it, but none of them worked. You may want to see if you have some hard water deposits. I decided to use distilled water to keep the deposits from building up. It worked...until the unit itself stopped working altogether.

The mist output was fine until the unit stopped working after a month. Unfortunately, that's when the option to return the unit for a refund expired!
