I've had (4) Chauvet haze machines before this one. First, the Hurricane Haze 2, then the HH 2D. Those both lasted a while, though I don't think ANY non-professional haze/smoke machine lasts very long, even with occasional cleaning. I never fully liked the physical design of the 2/2D, though they worked well. The haze output tube runs sideways into the airflow chamber and dribbles inside the hazer, making a mess and rust. After my 2D died, I bought an HH 4D and it seemed to be a much better design. The haze output tube drops vertically into the airflow chamber, so leaking isn't an issue. The air is moved by a typical axial fan as opposed to the "squirrel cage" fan used in the 2/2D. Both work fine, though the 4D's might help contribute to a slightly smaller size. It worked well for several years, but died about a year ago. At that time, I bought an HH1D to save money and it's still working, but its output just doesn't compare to the 2D or 4D. There are times and certain rooms where I need more output than the 1D can provide, so I dug out my credit card and invested in another 4D. The 4D has great output for all but the largest stages, its size is very reasonable, and it even seems to use much less fluid than the 1D. At $22+ per gallon, that's a very good thing. Overall, the 4D isn't cheap, but it works well and seems to last for a reasonable time.Read full review

My First hazer and pleased so far. Easy to maintain, learning to use and operating the machine was simple. The timer remote works great. Using it on small to medium venues and it outputs plenty to fill a room with a good cloud of haze. Ran 2 events on less than a gallon of juice. It does make a little noise, but is easily covered over by music or other sounds, could really only hear it during a speaker. I do Recommend getting the FCQ fluid for keeping it in good running order. Would definitely recommend and should i need another, will be looking at the same model.

Definitely worth the money. Absolutely pumps out the haze. I've used this on several gigs and does a great drop even on very large venues
