I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

Now about the noise. The first and most basic source of noise is the fan and it makes a lot of noise during operation, no matter what anyone says. To clean and humidify the air, the ventilation mode is always necessary and therefore it will always be. The next source of noise is a pump pumping water, but it also makes noise and its noise level is comparable to 1 fan speed. And the last source of noise is the bubbling water that splashes under pressure in the upper compartment of the device and then runs down. You probably heard how a running stream or tap water gurgles, well, that's it. And the advertised quiet device "from 9 dB" during its full-fledged work turns into a rather noisy thing. At speed 2, the device already begins to stand out and attract attention against the background of ordinary sounds at home or work, not to mention 3 and turbo. The night mode is apparently made for show, especially for lovers of night modes, to be, since its effectiveness with such a weak air flow is very doubtful. So a really relatively comfortable level remains only at 1st speed.

About efficiency.
- It blows well as a fan, it can automatically turn the flow to the left / right, why up / down left to control the hands is not clear.
- As an air purifier, I can’t say anything yet, because I don’t use it much.
- Works as a humidifier. The air is humidified and, due to a powerful fan, is effectively distributed throughout the apartment. At speed 2, the humidity rose and remained at around 40% in all rooms with a total volume of 46 sqm.
- As a cooler, the effectiveness is doubtful, due to moisture and the addition of ice, a decrease of 2-5 degrees is possible and will be, but this greatly depends on the conditions in which the device will be used.

Pros

Advantages - ventilates and moisturizes, performs its functions. Everything did not fit into thecommentary, so I break all my text into all sections. First, I recommend studying the attached photos (below the references in the text) and video (? v=6Cq5isK49Og), which show the key points of operation andcomnfiguration of the device. You can visit the website of the official distributor () or see pictures here (01-03), which I will attach. I ask you to pay attention to the differing figures for the operation of the device in different modes, because advertising usually says only the most beautiful numbers - the noise is 9 decibels and the area is 100 sqm, but this is not so. Firstly, it is still a fan, there are 5 power modes. It has two regulators, a speed switch from 1st to 3rd and a separate "night \ turbo" switch, you can turn on only one of these modes. In all modes, it makes noise, even at speed 1 it makes noise like an ordinary large floor fan, and even at 2 and 3 it howls as expected. This is to imagine when they write everywhere that he is allegedly "quiet". The only thing when it is quiet is in the "night" mode, where it is reallycomparable to the noise of acomputer, in principle, you can even sleep under it, but there is practically no air flow and it will "refresh" the air only if under you. The direction of the air outlet is regulated by shutters on the front panel, horizontal by hand, vertical ones turn by themselves using the auto mode switched on from the button.

Cons

Flaws - The price, I bought it for 21,000, but in my opinion it should cost no more than 200 bucks, I took this particular device because other applicants did not suit me even more. - Noisy, because I bought it for the sake of effective humidification, in advertising and reviews it was written that it was quiet, but in fact it was noisy. - there was no cup in the kit, which should be in the lower tank, I contacted the manufacturer and they promised to send it (Figure 04-05), but at first I still could not understand what the green sponge was for (this is not in the instructions). Secondly, about cleaning (Fig. 06-07). - Air purification is achieved first by a large carbon-coated mesh, which is attached to the rear removable cover. The mesh is too large in my opinion, I also have meshes in my computer for the same purposes and the holes in them are as small as on the meshes that are placed on the windows. These nets really catch dust and debris, and the one that is installed in the device will only catch flies and large debris, and even then when it is almost on the street, otherwise I just can’t imagine how something like this will get there in the apartment . - Next comes the honeycomb filter, which also performs the function of humidifying the passing air. Due to the complex structure and humidity, dust and small debris must be attracted and deposited on the filter during the passage of air and washed off by pouring water into the lower tank. The bottom tank, honeycomb filter and charcoal filter should be taken out and cleaned periodically. Thirdly, about moisturizing and cooling. Water from the lower tank is sucked in by the pump descending when turned on to the very top into the upper compartment. In the upper compartment, water is sprayed with special plastic (Fig. 08), and if ice is placed there, then additionally cooled water will flow through the holes down to the honeycomb filter. Through the honeycomb filter, water is distributed over a large surface of the filter and evaporates under the air flow, and already humidified / cooled air is blown out of the device through the front panel with shutters.
