Reviews around price (4.30 of 5)

  • The main criticisms I've seen of these are (1) price and (2) length of use before disposal.
  • Well the list price was three times the retail price at the time and that was a bit of a minor windfall at the time for me which impressed the heck out of
  • It is so nice to have a high quality product available in bulk at a fair price.
  • My only complaint is the price of the these packets..they should be cheaper
  • I have read where some folks have restored them by exposing them to more humidity but have not tried this (yet).Replacement paks are available from Amazon for a very reasonable price

Reviews around humidification (4.27 of 5)

  • Bags should harden as they collect moisture but after an entire summer in the northeast they are as pliable as when first opened.
  • The best humidification system available for your acoustic guitars.
  • Obviously, this would lead to a expensive humidification solution.
  • I've found the clay-based little plastic cannisters to be a perfectly adequate humidification system and more convenient.

Reviews around system (4.15 of 5)

  • I use these in both my Collings Dread and my Martin Custom 0, because I didn't trust the Oasis system from dripping
  • This system has taken all the guess work and worry out of humidifying my guitars
  • I was looking forward to an alternative to changing the small sponge in my plastic Planet Waves Planet Waves Humidifier, so I bought the more expensive Humidipak Automatic Control System.
  • I've had guitars crack from being too dry, great, clever system.
  • Martin does not recommend any system that contains chemicals, additives, etc.

Reviews around way (4.13 of 5)

  • This is the best way to maintain humidity for an acoustic guitar, hands down
  • Bags should harden as they collect moisture but after an entire summer in the northeast they are as pliable as when first opened.
  • This is the best and easiest way to guarantee your guitar is getting the right amount of humidification
  • Simplest way that there is to humidify your beloved guitar.

Reviews around humidifier (3.80 of 5)

  • This stupid humidifier dried out my guitar to the point where the back seperated
  • I went through two refills very quickly, a month each, before I added the cheaper planet waves humidifier with the sponge in it as well to help the process along.
  • The best humidifier and dehumidifier (in the summer on the East Coast) but the newer packet holders are horrible.
  • They seem to only last a year or two, but they work and the company is good about replacing faulty humidifiers.
  • The guitar plays just as well as it did when I got it, and she's with me now in Boston :)Cannot recommend this humidifier enough

Reviews around humidity (3.78 of 5)

  • Can the low humidity in my heated home be the issue, or are the packets just not lasting as long as previously purchased refill packs
  • A week after replacing the pouches according to directions, the humidity hasn't topped 25%.
  • The one drawback is having to remember to refill as well as purchasing (it gets a little pricey) the humidity packets
  • With the new packs the humidity is just right and the guitar stays i
  • Works great for keeping the right humidity for my guitar inside the case.

Reviews around advertise (3.68 of 5)

  • All in all, they appear to work as advertised and my collection has been that much more "safely protected" humidity wise, giving me the "piece of mind" I would other wise not have
  • Where both Boveda and D’Addario CS failed to address my point is how their product works as advertised if it fails to maintain RH at 45-50% as their packaging states.
  • Seems to work as advertised... according to the hygrometer it is 47% relative humidity in the case, while it varies outside of it.
  • The refill packs are quite expensive (at $15 for a set) but it seems to work as advertised.
  • and I would warn a potential buyer not to expect them to work as well as advertised.

Reviews around humidipaks (3.67 of 5)

  • As long as I don't leave the case open too long, the Humidipak seems able to maintain the humidity close to the desired level - not perfect, but not as bad as before the dehumidifying procedure
  • But when the Humidipaks were available again then sent mew replacements ANYWAY
  • These humidipaks are great and work just like they are supposed to
  • The Humidipaks get hard relatively quickly during the winter when the humidity is 21% but seems to work better than the sponge method
  • I love humidipaks, but I hate the new single-pouch sound hole sleeve

Reviews around taylor (3.66 of 5)

  • I emailed Taylor asking if the case that came with the guitar would work with the packs
  • I know my wonderful taylor will stay nice and hydrated using these - but the new design for the packet holders really sucks.
  • Used this to try to control the humidity for my BRAND NEW GORGEOUS and EXPENSIVE Taylor acoustic
  • My Taylor developed a split in the soundboard last winter.
  • This product has kept my Taylor 814ce acoustic at a constant humidity level of 53% while the furnace and space heater warms the studio on our cold winter nights.

Reviews around guitar (3.17 of 5)

  • Best product to keep your guitar safe from the effects of dry weather
  • So why would you deprive your guitar of essential moisture?
  • I didn't want to force it in by all means because that would damage my Ramirez guitar
  • Because I maintain that guitar, as well as all my guitars with proper humidity ... the best friend a guitar can have.
  • My guitar hasn't had any issues because I just keep it in the case with these packs

Reviews around review (1.85 of 5)

  • I'm simply not believing the negative reviews of this product
  • The existing reviews had a variety of opinions, but given the varying conditions where used, hard to translate to my own situation
  • After using the system for several months, I removed it after seeing several less than complimentary reviews in various places.
  • I have read through almost all of the review on Amazon, and the negative reviews really worried me
  • Since there are already many positive reviews about the product, I am mainly going to try and address all the negative reviews

Reviews around plastic (1.69 of 5)

  • The hanging hard plastic piece of the pouch is very long and rests against the edge of the sound-hole on one side and the fretboard on the other.
  • Now, they have a single pouch setup and a nasty plastic retainer to hold it in the sound hole
  • No matter how I secure it, unless I roll the top of the gel packs into the part of the pouch that's supposed to fit into the plastic securing pieces, the pack sits on the inside back of the guitar and the plastic pieces are loose enough to move around and mar the finish on my guitar.
  • The one that now ships in the kit has a strange plastic straw-and-channel system for closing two packets into a single case that then is tucked into the guitar hole and then this rigid plastic thing rests on the strings.
  • Any slight pressure placed on top of the case pushes the hard plastic hanging mechanism into the edge of your sound-hole and your fretboard.

Reviews around winter (1.47 of 5)

  • This product has kept my Taylor 814ce acoustic at a constant humidity level of 53% while the furnace and space heater warms the studio on our cold winter nights.
  • I check the packs when I open the case up - a simple squeeze test - and I am pleased with the time the humidpaks are lasting - between 2 and 3 months during this cold winter
  • I tended to go through three or four sets in the course of a cold winter
  • We've had a relatively warm and wet winter where I

Reviews around finish (1.38 of 5)

  • Granted, I exceeded the recomended usage by 25% and when I opened up the case they had leaked out of the mesh container, into my Martin and stained the finish clear through to the outside!
  • If you have a guitar costing many thousands, you do not want to risk marring its finish with a humidifier
  • No matter how I secure it, unless I roll the top of the gel packs into the part of the pouch that's supposed to fit into the plastic securing pieces, the pack sits on the inside back of the guitar and the plastic pieces are loose enough to move around and mar the finish on my guitar.
  • hard plastic clip that holds cloth humidifier bag closed can scratch finishes

Reviews around piece (1.38 of 5)

  • As others have noted, the design of having the hard plastic pieces in contact with the guitar is an awful, horrible, and just plain stupid, stupid, stupid idea.
  • Well I tried this several times and this pack always ends up slipping into the hole and you have to try to slide it out - so this chunky piece of plastic with these packs of humidification gel is now rolling around in there with sharp edges
  • The hanging hard plastic piece of the pouch is very long and rests against the edge of the sound-hole on one side and the fretboard on the other.
  • The pouches now include two annoying little plastic pieces that you have to attach and detach every time you replace the gel packs.
  • The system is great, but not sure why they want hard pieces to rub on guitars in their cases.

Reviews around shell (1.00 of 5)

  • They seemed very close to normal when I place them in the pouches in my hard shell guitar case but within 5 days the material had thickened to the same state as the ones I was replacing which had served me from August to early January
  • It's ONLY for people that keep their guitar in a hard shell case
  • By the way; unless you keep your guitars inside a hard shell case, I seriously doubt any humidifier is going to protect your guitar in an environment at 20 to 30 percent humidity.
  • The very least they should do on their sales page is warn you that it's only for use with guitars kept in a hard shell or virtually airtight case
  • For the record, I'm talking about a 5-latch, hard-shell case made by Taylor for my 314ce - Better to keep your instruments in a room with the most balanced humidity I think.

Reviews around rock (1.00 of 5)

  • The packets are already hard as a rock - something is not right here
  • But this last batch of 12 only last about five weeks at best before they are as hard as rocks - and I'm placing them in cases that have been humidified - just replacing the packets
  • I believe in the product, this time the packs were hard as a rock within a month
  • Still, in 3 to 4 weekstime the packs will be hard as a rock
