Review on Humidifier with aroma function Boneco U700, white/black/blue by Dagmara Michowska ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not a bad product, but you can do better.

I took U700 instead of Electrolux 3715 and sink 7xx I pour water from under reverse osmosis - no white coating on furniture and dirt inside. 1) I counted on the declared humidification performance (in heating mode) - 600 ml / h, but there are no 600 ml / h, at best, like 3715 - 400 ml / h 2) Uniform monotonous motor noise / hum - 24/7. If the set humidity level is reached, the steam simply stops flowing, but the device does not turn off, the sound does not change, the rumble, as it was, is at least 30 dB all night and day. The hum only stops when the water runs out. 3) There are two holes for steam to escape, the smaller one is covered with a film of water every couple of hours of operation and the steam cannot break through - because of this, the efficiency drops even more. It is enough to blow through and everything is OK, but you will not do this every time. 4) I installed it on a shelf that was not quite perfectly horizontal and for a long time I could not understand why the light was flashing that there was no water. It turns out that the device is designed in such a way that there are two niches in the pan and the water from the tank flows into one, and then, having reached a certain level, into another - an incomprehensible design - and so the water could not get into another niche, since the device was under the tilt, leveling the shelf fixed everything. The room is 18 meters, t +21, it’s winter outside, the batteries are barely, because I don’t like to overheat, but the device can’t cope. 33% humidity is the maximum that I saw on it myself, although usually the readings of the built-in hygrometers are too high. Even if this one shows the truth, it's not enough.

Pros
  • Design, build quality, plastic - an excellent, dimmable display, the sound of buttons and a signal about running out of water - quiet and will not wake you up at night. A convenient capacious 9L tank, but it does not look bulky.
Cons
  • 1) The rumble of the motor is 30+ dB, one outlet of the escaping steam is closed by water drops and there is no steam. 2) The moisture performance indicator is clearly overestimated. 3) Sensitive to the slope of the surface on which it is installed.
