I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

- IMPORTANT: I'm not sure if this is a drawback, but you should be aware: when the humidifier is running, the value of PM2.5 particles in the air rises a lot. I tried different water, the result is the same - the air pollution sensor goes off scale. The network writes that this is a normal sensor reaction to water particles in the air. But this creates a problem that the air purifier thinks that the air is polluted and turns on at full power.

: Filled with distilled water (bought in a store 5L) - particle sensor 2.5 does not respond. That is, I conclude that it is necessary to use water without impurities and minerals, then there will be no plaque in the apartment (I will still check the presence of plaque). I attached a photo with a circled value of pm2.5, after an hour of operation of the humidifier, at medium power with distillate.

- I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but you can hear drops of water that accumulate on the inside of the steam outlet tube. Condensation accumulates and drips back - and it is VERY audible. I don’t understand what people have for silent work

- the steam is cold! And they write that it is steam, not ultrasonic. It seems that somewhere I saw the info that the steam jet is cooling - but this is not accurate

- be sure to close the windows and the interior door to raise the level of humidity in the room, otherwise it will work for the whole apartment and may not be able to cope

Pros

- does not leave marks on furniture and appliances (perhaps because I fill in filtered water) : leaves! See photo! - : ate review! There was a problem with the windows - they changed the seals and the clamping mechanism, dry air from the street stopped getting into the apartment, and then the humidifier did its job to the fullest! I was able to raise the humidity to 67% (with the room door closed), I change the rating to 4⭐️: the built-in sensor still shows an underestimated number of ~ 40%, although the apartment is foggy

Cons

- you can hear it: everyone writes that it is silent, but how? You can hear drops of water (such a design) and at max. power, a fan is heard that drives a jet of steam - aromatization does not actually work: the steam jet itself smells, but there is no smell in the room (I tried different essential oils and dripped different volumes) : it works if the percentage of humidity is high - then there will be fog from the water with a smell in the room - in the application, the humidity sensor shows complete nonsense: the maximum that it gave out is 30%, although a separate sensor in the room shows 40% - on the famous Chinese site, it costs 2 times cheaper (its real price) - still found a white coating on things in the room. It is strange, but the raid does not appear on all things, but on some separate ones, although there is no plaque on the things that are nearby. I have not found it on furniture yet, mainly on appliances, boxes, plastic parts (see photo)
