| Pros | Simple controls, effective nozzle | Straightforward interface, good all-around performance, easy to fill and clean | Effective, warm misting option, smart functionality, easy to carry | Ultra quiet, simple to clean | Premium yet affordable, smart features, intuitive app |
| Cons | Low output, feels flimsy | No humidistat, pricey, no smart functions | Pricey | Overpriced, non-removable tank | Requires app to access functions |
| Bottom Line | This affordable humidifier is easy to clean, but its low output means it'll need to run for longer | A super effective humidifier with a straightforward, minimalist design, but we feel that additional features would have further justified the cost | This model stood out thanks to the sleek design, high-end functionality, and sheer convenience of operation | This exorbitantly priced humidifier showcases super quiet operation and is easy to clean while delivering superb humidifying power | This unit defies the notion of affordability versus quality, impressing us with both its output and functionality, all while maintaining a budget-friendly price |
