If you're desperate for something before a poll shows up, here's a list I found useful and ended up getting the Honeywell HCM-350.

I second this. I have a great one I want to recommend that has changed my life this winter I swear. It's ugly as hell but so damn efficient.

Amazon will gain some points with me when they are able to understand what sort of purchases are one-time or infrequent. I just bought a pair of winter gloves, why would I be interested in other winter gloves? . Right now my homepage is suggesting a cell phone charger (bought one last week), a lightning cable (last…

Has anyone actually found it on bestbuy.com yet? I can't find it anywhere. Called their customer service and they didn't know anything about it.
