I've been using Mabis steamers for chronic sinusitis for about ten years in two different locations. The first one purchased eventually started to die I planned to buy a new one. However, when I started shopping I saw the Veridian which, while it looked just like the Mabis and had overall good reviews, cost about $20 less, so I decided to give it a try. I'm very pleased. I'd be very surprised if the Veridian and Mabis steamers aren't made by the same manufacturer. They look exactly the same except for the labeling, and after a couple of weeks of use I've found no real difference in operation. My only complaint is that the Veridian seems to sputter a little at the end of the cycle, but with no effect on or danger to me. The steam in both brands gets a little too hot sometimes, but not hot enough to scald, and the markings on the water measuring cups are hard to read (easily remedied with a permanent marker).
