" ... I wanted something small enough to fit on my nightstand, but needed it to be nice looking since it would be sitting in the open. ... "
" ... It is quiet and pleasant to use especially with the essential oil tray! ... "
" ... The large capacity tank is awesome. ... "
" ... Holds a little over a gallon of water. ... Love the aromatherapy option, although I had to fix the slide in drawer when I received it. ... "
" ... There is a carrying handle, great for carrying to the sink but then you have to turn it upside down to remove cap and fill. ... You have a gallon or more of water in a slick plastic container you have to flip over. ... It only holds one side so if you lift the container the base rocks and I expect you could easily break the base or container. ... "
" ... Aroma tray is nice addition. ... "
" ... I'd say it is probably better for a smaller room rather than a large open space. ... "

" ... The humidity sensor is very useful also. ... "
" ... The humidity sensor is right next to the unit, which makes the humidity reading inaccurate because it's very easy for the areas near the unit to be humidified first, therefore increasing the reading number, while the room in general hasn't really been humidified yet. ... "
" ... If sensor was closer to end of plug (farther away from unit) it would give a more accurate reading and function better. ... "
