Review on ASAKUKI 500ml Premium Essential Oil Diffuser with Remote Control - 5 in 1 Ultrasonic Aromatherapy, Fragrant Oil Humidifier Vaporizer: Timer, Auto-Off Safety Switch by Jared Allred

I am really loving this diffuser! I was using a large, clunky humidifier in our bedroom at night, but it specifically stated to NOT add essential oils to the water. I don't care for heavily scented, chemical laden air fresheners and candles, and, though I won't attempt to speak to any medicinal benefits, I do find essential oil aromatherapy to be effective at creating a pleasant and soothing atmosphere in my home. However, I didn't want a unit that would only act as a diffuser, but one that would provide enough humidity to the room to replace the old humidifier completely. I feel that this product accomplishes that, and I plan to buy at least one more to use on the opposite side of the house as well.Setup and use: Setting up the diffuser for first time use is extremely simple (2 minutes tops), and the instructions are clear w/ pictures. Push buttons on the base control the functions and rely on beeps to let you choose your setting preference. You hold down the "light" button to turn the unit on. You can continue pressing the "light" button to go through the color and brightness options or you can hold the button down until it beeps twice to use the diffuser without any lights. The "mist" button controls the running time for the diffuser - 60, 120, or 180 mins or just choose "on" to let the diffuser run until the water levels get too low. A small green light indicates what time setting it's on. You can adjust the humidity level by holding down the high/low button - one beep indicates low, two beeps for high.Capacity: I have found that 500ml, on the low mist setting, provides enough humidity for our 320 sq. ft. bedroom and will run for most of the night (8ish hours). I choose the "on" setting, and the unit turns itself off automatically when the water gets too low. I do not mind having to add fresh water everyday because I feel like that is cleaner anyway. Adding water is as simple as lifting the top, and there are marks on the side of the basin so that you do not overfill.Range: Again, from a humidity standpoint, I think that this unit is sufficient for a 300ish sq. ft. room. As far as scent is concerned, I think that will depend on the quality of the oils you use and the number of drops you add to the water. I use 6-9 drops of one of Edens Garden's kid safe oil blends, and the scent is noticeable is several large rooms adjacent to where the diffuser is plugged in.Features: This is just a nice, compact, and attractive diffuser/humidifier. To me, design matters. If I am going to give something precious surface space in my home then it needs to work well and look good doing it. While this unit is all plastic (the wood grain is just printed on), it looks attractive and takes up much less space than an old school humidifier. In the right setting, the range of colors would be a nice feature as well. It is virtually silent while running, and you can see an appreciable amount of mist coming from the unit.
