Review on Air washer Winia AWX-70, white/turquoise by Dagmara Gajda ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

In a budget of up to 30 thousand, there are only two devices that have at least some effect in our latitudes - Winia AWX-70 and Venta LW45 and above. Everything else is plus or minus money thrown to the wind (with the exception of some ultrasonic evaporators, but this requires good osmosis. Therefore, if you want to pour water from the tap, you need a humidifier with traditional evaporation, otherwise there will be plaque all over the furniture). Venta is good for everyone, but I got it with a marriage out of the box + the design is still outdated (there were complaints from my wife). Winia is not to say that it is much better in appearance, but still somehow more pleasant. You also need to understand that in our realities, not a single humidifier will humidify your entire apartment in winter, no matter how the manufacturer claims it. Only if you do not live in a region with a warm climate. If we are talking about the middle lane with cold winters (and this is automatically dry air outside) + central heating, then Vinia and Venta will give a maximum acceptable level of humidity in one room. Therefore, in order to ensure comfortable humidity throughout the apartment, you need either three of these, or already professional units, the cost of which tends to 100 thousand. Of the recommendations, I advise you to lubricate the base of the drum + drive. Silicon-Fett can be used for this. Otherwise, the friction will wear down the plastic. For this, a small minus to the manufacturer. I also removed the hepa filters, since for me they are quite useless (it is necessary to solve the issue of cleaning the incoming air into the apartment, for which I have forced ventilation) and the air duct opening flaps. This improves the efficiency of the device. I pour the additive from the vent into the water. This allows you to wash the pan once every 3-4 weeks, rather than every 3 days with a complete water change. Deposits are well removed if the drum is soaked in citric acid. Although someone says that with a "dirty" drum, the humidification efficiency is higher. At the very beginning there was a slight crack during operation, but it was decided to install the drum closer to one of the walls. In general, I am satisfied with the device.

Pros
  • + One of the few humidifiers that gives at least some effect in our latitudes + A large number of operating modes + Virtually silent operation at first speed and in night mode. Even on the second, in principle, tolerable + Capacious tank (declared 9 liters, but you can safely pour 10-11) + Ease of use + Fair enough built-in hygrometer + I recommend using it with an additive from Venta, which will allow you to wash the tank not every 3-4 days, but once every two to three weeks. But it is advisable to fill in fresh water every day.
Cons
  • - Build quality could be better. It takes some luck to get a copy without marriage + from time to time the device needs service if you want it to last a long time - If it is disconnected from the mains or in the absence of water, then after turning it on again or filling in water, it automatically switches to auto mode, which does not allow connecting through a hygrostat - Inconvenient "handles" of the pallet. Carrying a pallet with 10 liters of water is unrealistic - Useless hepa filters - South Korea is a technologically advanced country, so it would be possible to add the ability to control via phone to the device
