Thank you, I think you are exactly right. I've gotten rid of the humidifier and put a pot of water on the stove. It works through water about 4 times faster, and it doesn't have a loud irritating fan. And it doesn't take up space.
I was worried about the rust spots, but I'm also perfectly capable of scrubbing off rust and applying high heat paint, so I'll try to keep the pot dry and not worry about it too much.
