Cons No humidistat, pricey, no smart functionsPricey, water tank can be tough to carryOverpriced, non-removable tankPriceyLacks key features, small fill port, unresponsive touchscreen
Bottom Line A super effective humidifier with a straightforward, minimalist design, but we feel that additional features would have further justified the costExtensive controls, smart home integration, and easy operation provide a trouble-free humidifier experienceThis exorbitantly priced humidifier showcases super quiet operation and is easy to clean while delivering superb humidifying powerThis model stood out thanks to the sleek design, high-end functionality, and sheer convenience of operationWhile aesthetically pleasing and boasting decent humidity output, this model comes at a premium despite its lack of features and finicky interface
