A Breath of Moist Air

We can sense it coming, that moment when we finally flip the switch on our thermostat from "cool" to "heat."

Only problem is, all of that heat can make the air in our homes a bit dry. The solution: The Venta-Sonic VS 370 Digital Humidifier from Bed Bath & Beyond.

We like the fact that it's pretty much maintenance-free -- no filter to replace, no cleaning, no germs -- and shuts off when its water tank is empty.

It's easy to fill and outputs four gallons daily for rooms as large as 850 square feet. The display tells you the actual humidity and the unit shuts off when your desired humidity level is reached.

It retails for $199.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond online (www.bedbathand beyond.com) or locally at 2100 N. Rainbow Blvd.; 10950 W. Charleston Blvd.; 6564 N. Decatur Blvd., North Las Vegas; and 621 Marks St., Henderson.
