MistAire Studio Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier - Small & Compact, Overnight Operation, 2 Mist Settings, Optional Night Light, & Auto Shut-Off - For Offices, Plants & Small Spaces

Ive had this for over a year and I absolutely love this humidifier. I bought it for my office, and it has made a huge difference in a super dry work environment, especially during winter. It’s compact, but the tank is big enough that a full fill actually lasts me the entire workday, which I didn’t expect at all. I like taking short breaks and letting the mist hit my face to rehydrate my skin and clear up my nose after staring at multiple monitors all day. It’s super soft to inhale and don’t make me cough like other humidifiers. It’s quiet, easy to use, and doesn’t feel flimsy. I liked it so much that I ended up buying one for my wife’s office too. Simple, effective, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s super easy to clean too.. not a lot of parts, so you can rinse and use small star cleaners to brush off any debris or stains.

I purchased a humidifier because the Northern air gets so dry, and then running heaters in the winter time, compounds the matter even worse. Did you know that experts have proven that, if the air gets too dry, you can get sick easier? I feel so much better when I humidify the air, I breath easier, and sleep easier as well. Plus, if the air gets too dry, you can also shock yourself on everything in your home, thats usually an indicator that your humidity is bellow 30%. I also purchased a humidity meter from the acurite brand, as I like to know where my humidity levels are at all times. Just for reference, if you can keep your humidity levels around 40% to 50% MAX, you will live happier. I have owned this humidifier for 2-years now, and I can tell you right now, that longevity is pretty good so far. I bought this for large rooms, so that I have the output if necessary. The resovoir holds up to 1-gallon of water, and its really easy to fill. Just lift the container off the base, flip it over, remove the fill cap, fill all the way up, replace cap, put container back down onto base. On the first use, you will see lots of bubbles, while the water fills up the base resovoir where the transducer is located, that creates the ultra sonic vaporization. This unit comes with two nozzles. The directional nozzle, and the 2-way nozzle. Use the directional nozzle when placing this unit near a wall, you obviously don't want to shoot water vapor into your wall. When used in an open space where there is at least 3 feet all around the unit, use the 2-way nozzle to get higher flow. Additionally, the on/off knob also controls the flow amount. Depending on how bad the humidity is, use 50% to 75% flow, for small rooms. For use in large rooms, maintain 100% flow unless water begins to form around the unit and surface it is on, then back off on the flow. This is why I highly recommend the use of a humidity meter. I like being able to know where my humidity is at all times. I do not want to exceed 50%, as it will get far too humid. But I also don't want to drop bellow 30%, and would rather keep it at a happy 40% medium. Its also nice having the meter cause in the summer time, we don't want humidity, so I can pay attention to what the humidity is doing, while I run the 2-AC units. Also, this unit has a LED light mode, up to three colors can be chosen, and can be turned on by pressing the touch sensor button, just above the flow control knob. I do wish that the max flow had a higher rate then it does, and a higher push into the air. However, for what it does do, I am pretty happy with it. This unit is also fairly easy to clean as well. I use filtered water from a Britta jug, so the deposits don't get too bad. If you use tap water, you will only breath disgusting water vapor, and will lesson the life of your unit, making cleaning more difficult. Using filtered water, I only really need to do a rinsing once a week, and a cleaning of the transducer, with the included brush. And a final cleaning with 1-cup distilled white vinegar with mostly water solution, before putting up for storage. Keep the unit clean and you should have no problems. I highly recommend it, 5-STARS! UPDATE Jan 7th 2019! I wanted to give everybody an update on how this humidifier is doing. It is now 3-years old, and it is still working! I know, hard to believe, when we know how quickly things die these days due to planned obsolescence. I have the humidifier running right now infact, as after the rains stopped again, the humidity went down to 34%, and I decided to start humidifying. The unit is still in pretty good condition, I do have some discoloration within the transducer area due to wear, I don't think much can be done about that besides a straight vinegar cleaning. Speaking of which, I have run a 1-cup vinegar to full tank of water in the tank to clean it out. I just let it sit for 30-minutes, and then cleaned it out. Now, if the deposits that form that yellow gooyness is really bad, the vinegar treatment will at least break it up to make it loose its bond, then you can fish a paper towel through inside the hole to clean off the bottom inside of the tank. Again I can't stress enough how important it is to use filtered water. Companies advertisements always lie to consumers making them think they can use tap water. Sure, but if your tap water is hard water like ours, it will dirty up your humidifier so darn fast, you'll be cleaning it every day! At least filtered water, such as that from a Britta jug container, will at least extend your cleaning times to once per week, and then at least 1 or 2 vinegar cleanings per year of use. Cleaning is important with this product for your health, as you want to breath clean moisture in the air, but don't cause yourself unnecessary labor by using tap water please. The humidifier is still able to push out its full power as it did in the first 2-years of use. One thing I've noticed over the years is, the colder the water is, the longer it takes to get going. We keep our Britta jug in the fridge, cause I don't like to drink room temperature water, and when the freshly cold water runs in the machine, it takes time for it to build up the moisture vapor till its going full strength. But this machine does a really good job in bringing up the humidity in the room. One of the things I like about it as well, is that its efficient on power consumption. Since were using a lot of electricity running space heaters, since its winter and all, I am grateful for the low consumption of the unit. Anytime you have a heating device, it uses a lot of power. Its just one of the reasons why I don't like steam based humidifiers, cause your running elements in there that draw a lot of power. And cold running humidifiers, use transducers, which generate ultrasonic vibrations, which vaporizes the water instead, while a onboard fan, pushes the vapor out. I still highly recommend this humidifier and I keep the rating at 5 out of 5!

This humidifier works exactly as advertised. The output is consistent, the tank lasts through the night, and the moisture level makes a noticeable difference in dry‑air environments. I've had a real problem with waking up with sinus pressure and headaches the past few months and this humidifier has completely taken care of that. It’s also impressively quiet — the motor and mist output are barely audible, even in a silent bedroom. The controls are simple, the design is compact, and it’s easy to clean and refill. If you need a reliable humidifier for nighttime use or sinus comfort, this one performs really well.

I've had two of these for about a month. Both are working as advertised. The newest one started to put out less mist on the low setting so at next refill I cleaned the transducer with the provided brush and now it works as it should. Really, the only negative I find on both is the design of the tank. There is no handle and its seems very possible that if not handled carefully, one may drop it and break the tank as there is no refilling from the top of the unit. Also when one flips the tank to refill it dosent have a flat surface on top that will sit on any flat surface. I have to sit it in the sink drain and fill it carefully. I refill it everyday and I'm not sure how long it will last.

I stay at my son's one night a week to babysit my granddaughter; they have forced hot air heat and I had difficulty sleeping due to the low humidity level. This little humidifier, when filled, runs all night. It is quiet, emits a gentle mist that doesn't leave dampness on the floor or the bed [I place it about 1 ft from the bed, 6 inches from the wall, and about 4 inches off the floor]. The night light feature is a plus which doesn't disturb my sleep. Very pleased with this purchase.

This really is a silent partner for your health. The blue light isn't distracting to have it on when you sleep, rather it is somewhat comforting and works well as a nightlight if you need to get up and use the restroom. On the low setting, it can run basically all day without adding water and on the high setting, you need to add water about every 7 hours. My cat finds the billowing mist to be particularly interesting to watch, as well. Great buy; can't recommend it enough!

I often wake up with or get sinus headaches overnight and feel dehydrated and so I don’t sleep well. After research I found out that a humidifier can help and after reading mostly good reviews I bought this one to try in my bedroom. It has really helped! It is really quiet which is great but the power button is bright and I like a dark room so I have to stand something in front of it. It also unexpectedly has an American plug so I then had to buy a USA/English adaptor which was a nuisance more than a problem. I also hadn’t realised that you should use distilled water in it. I initially bought a 5litre bottle but that lasted less than a week. It is going to be a pain and expensive to have to keep buying the water especially as you can’t get them from the supermarkets. I don’t know what would happen if you use tap water and as it is an expensive item I do not want to risk it. Overall though I am really pleased with it and it is certainly helping me sleep better and have far less headaches. Would recommend.

Goodn

me llegó ayer y ese mismo dia lo porbé para ver si funcionaba, y funciona perfecto, tiene 3 intencidades de que salga el vapor.

I have been using this since few months and extremely satisfied. Previously I was having nasel infection due to dryness from heating system. After using the humidifier I am fully recovered and having sound sleep. Highly recommended!

I have used this item continuously for months during our cold dry winters when we must heat a lot. The humidity can drop to 25%. if we do not humidify the house. This product is practically silent - works perfectly. No filters to change! It would suitable for a smaller area, so we have two. :) One unit can raise the humidity level in our bedroom by 10%. NB I would recommend cleaning it after a week or so depending on use. Handwash using a damp cloth with mild detergent or hydrogen peroxide, then rinse carefully - especially the base - do not get water in the air outlet.
