Review on BONECO W200 Air Washer: Humidifier and Purifier for Improved Air Quality by Agung Rey ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

I heard somewhere that you shouldn't expect immediate results from this kind of washing, but rather let it work for around two weeks before judging its effectiveness. In actual fact, it was discovered that the effect is accomplished a great deal earlier. Hydration. The level of humidity increased from 20% to 32% throughout the course of the first day (although it might have been lower; the hygrometer I use has a lower limit of 20%). Later, within a week, it increased to 50%, and it is currently somewhere about 54% (it increased to a maximum of 57%), while the hygrometer directly at the outlet of the device shows 64%. On a more corporeal level, the humidity may be felt, particularly after going outside onto the street. If you leave the doors open in an apartment that is 32 square meters in size, you will find that the humidity is the same everywhere. As the room is vented, the humidity level drops; however, the degree to which it drops depends on how long the room is ventilated; for me, the level never dropped below 40%, but it also rapidly recovered. The relative humidity does not drop below 45% even when the mode is set to night (although it is generally kept even higher). Washing. After two weeks of work, the water in the tank has turned a yellowish color and a dirty coating has formed on the bottom. In the first few days of the job, something that looked like sand floated in the tank. It seems as though there is less dust that can accumulate on the furniture (although this is more likely because of the humidity). Noise. On standard mode, the device can be quite noisy, especially if you don't talk or watch TV very often; but, you do get used to it. At the same time, when it switches to its night mode of operation, you won't have any trouble sleeping. Aromatherapy. I read many reviews, and many of them stated that the oil container is pointless because there is no fragrance coming from it. Someone else has mentioned that if premium oils are used, this feature functions extremely well. I spent 75 rials and tested oils made of pine, tangerine, and eucalyptus, all of which came from separate producers. Pine is the predominant odor, despite the fact that tangerine and eucalyptus are not detectable even after the humidifier has been removed from the room. When this is going on, the odor can be picked up on very subtly, but it lingers for a number of hours (I poured it at night and it still smelled in the morning). It is easier to detect the odor when you have just come in from the street, but in a short while, you will become accustomed to it, and you will need to sniff it. In overall, the acquisition meets all of the expectations.
