Boneco S250

“I personally prefer steam humidifiers; there’s nothing healthier out there. I used to own an evaporative humidifier, but the maintenance was just too much. I had to keep notes to remind myself when to replace the filter and order new ones ahead of time. I’ll never forget the time I finally remembered to check it and found the filter covered in mold; that was the last straw. I haven’t tried the Boneco S250 or S450, but I’m currently using the Y&O steam humidifier, and I honestly can’t live without it. What sold me on it was the coverage. It can humidify up to 1,000 sq. ft., so I no longer have to run multiple small units around the house. The 10L water tank also lasts through the night, so I don’t have to wake up to refill it. Since it uses heat to produce steam, it doesn’t need any filters, and that means no germs, no impurities. If you’re sensitive to noise, there’s even a sleep mode that helps a lot. Of course, since it heats the water, it does build up some limescale over time, but I don’t really mind cleaning it occasionally; it’s a fair trade-off for something that feels much more hygienic and healthy.”
