Stairville Hz-200 Compact Hazer DMX Reviews

its good

pros, very good quality, does not turn off if you push it too much

the yellow button auto timer its so helpfull you just find the settings after 1 gig and boom... you dont have anything to worry... creates enough haze , the fan has great power but a bit noisy,(dont mind if you play loud)

cons...

the recomended liquid gives me sorethroat , it makes my throat dry, you can have dry throat that leads to voice cracks when u sing... some times the next day of the gig i feel sick ...

Hazer

Built very well, not too noisy for gigs, can get a good control over the ammout of haze. Low power consumption.

Not without faults but good for the price

I am quite happy with this. The amount of haze is good and, using dmx, is very controllable. fluid consumption is also very good. Better than i expected. Seems pretty well built and the light on the fluid tank gives it a nice look on stage.

A few cons: It is louder than i expected.

You don´t notice it when there´s music or something going on, but i wouldn´t use it at a quiet poetry reading. The included remote is completely useless. Seems to only work full on or full off, timer hardly works and most of the time it seems to have a mind of it´s own. So use dmx.

don't buy this machine if you need a quite stage

we had many of these machines in the past which were very good for money. Now they have changed some components inside which results in the machine making a tremendous amount of noise after the temperature reaches operative level. The noise is not coming from the pump or the fan but from its heating element and it is incredibly annoying, loud and persistent humming . after contacting customer service i got told that this is normal ......therefore we returned it.

stay away if you need a quite stage if noise is not a problem is good value for the money. Stairville you should improve products not making them worse.

This hazer works every weekend for several hours and no problems for now. Perfect bang for the buck.

Compact and Efficient

Had this for 6 months now. Really happy with it. Doesn’t guzzle haze fluid. Not too loud. Throws out the haze really well. We’d been transporting it in the original box for a while but I had a moment of genius. If you remove the three turn screws that hold the brackets, the whole thing fits inside one of those aluminium vinyl/record cases (the ones that hold 50). Fits like a glove.

It works well in line with price level.

Great haze machine, well worth it

Bought this hazer to have for parties in our large shed. It is a great piece of kit. Normally runs on the timer for about 5-7 hours each time we have a party.

Pros:

- It seems to be pretty economical on the fluid (Stairville PHF Pro Haze Fluid 5 ltr. is the one I use).

- Have used it 4 or 5 times now and not had any issues with it at all

- The haze is very light, the perfect amount for highlighting and accentuating the lighting we have. But doesn't really affect visibility at all

- The ability to adjust the vertical direction on the output head is great

- The ability to adjust the fan speed from off - gale-force wind is another super benefit which helps when adapting this fixture for a small, medium or large sized indoor venue.

Cons:

The only thing that comes to mind is the controller, the output and timer amount has no value assigned to them, so you have to just blindly play about with them until you're happy with the result. I think we have it active for about 4-5 seconds every minute for the whole night, with the fan set to around half-speed. That seems to do the trick and after about 30 minutes of it being on the beams stay highlighted for the rest of the evening.

Brillant

I use this hazer in multiple venues I work in and use it in my touring/dry hire stock and is brill for the price. never let me down

surprising

I'm using this hazer for occasional indoor small parties (~30-100 ppl, 5x a year) at low output level - invisible haze to highlight beams. I'ts perfectly controllable without nasty stuff on floor or walls - just real continual haze effect to amplify the the low power led lights. I've not expecting such a difference from usual fog machines. It is capable to serve much bigger stages with very low liquid consumption. No mess with fire alarms anymore ;)

very good and reliable product, for smaller action super.

Best solution

we don't even use the old smoke machines at private parties

good for small to midsize venues

good hazer for small to mid-size venue's. does make some wird noises from time to time but it works and im very happy, good hazer for the price

Great little hazer

Uses very little fluid, even at full, and outputs a steady light haze. Exactly what you'd expect.

Amazing hazer for the money

What more can you expect from a hazer fo this price? It belts out haze in a well controlled manner. The control is simple and effective. I bought two for a club venue and hardly ever use the second as one has more than enough output. A great purchase and I will be using them on many jobs to come!

stairville is well known foa good quality-price products and this is one of them.nice fog not anything that will blow your mind but it does the job.

i purchased it with the liquid and its a nice product.it is for small to medium halls

fan broke but great service from seller.

This does what it says on the tin, I'm happy :)

Hazer Power

Great product, it is amazing the amount of nice haze it puffs out. Happy with this item, will be using it mainly on film sets to create a misty mood.

Top of the top

One of my best purchases?....winner!!!

Great hazer

This is a very good and reliable hazer. I have the hz600 as well and to be honest I would rather have 2 of these and cover a larger area quicker for the same money.

The stairville haze fluid is awful. I use Lematre pro haze fluid with it and the coverage and haze quality is amazing
