Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic HumidifierCustomer Review: Beautiful design but the built in humidity detector has major flaw Summary: 3 StarsI just got this beautiful designed humidifier and was hoping to retired my older version of the air-o-swiss 7135 (the one with blue see through tank)and I was very disappointed how the newer version I just got. I set it 45% humidity and set it in my living room. the humidity detector just can't accurately detect how humid it is in the room and keep pumping the mist. At first I thought maybe it's the size of my living room so i left it on then went do some grocery shopping. When I get back home, the moment I opened the front door I sense the humidity is high in the room (I guess the unit just keeps pumping the mist) and I went to check the "current humidity" it still says 32 ~ 40 and never can reach 45% as I wanted. but then I put the older version (the one with blue tank) at the same place, it humidified the room quickly up to 45% and the mist stopped and when the humidity dropped below 45% then it start pumping the mist.
Yes the newer version has more beautiful and modern design and look to it but if you have to pay almost $100 more for the newer version and the humidity detector is not working as well as the older one (with blue tank), then what's the point? the whole point of paying for a more expensive humidifer is that it will automatically detect the room's humidity and maintaine the desired humidity level.
So I am gonna return this unit, and get another older verion with the blue tank # 7135.
As other reviewers mentioned about the leak at the bottom, white dust, I didn't experience any of it. I love how it looks, and definitly can humidify the room to a higher level of humidity but was very unhappy how they just slap in a cheap & not accurate humidity detector in. some engineer from Air-O-Swiss who designed this unit should be fired!
Description of Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic HumidifierThis efficient Air-O-Swiss Ultrasonic humidifiier uses several cutting edge technologies to achieve an optimum quality of environmental control. High-frequency vibrations generate a micro-fine mist, while an Intelligent Temperature Compensation system (ICS) measures humidity relative to the room temperature and automatically adjusts the output to achieve an optimum balance dynamically as conditions change. The water is kept clean with three separate processes that make up the Microbial Protection System: ultrasonic technology, pre-heating, and Ionic Silver Stick. The latter makes use of the proven anti-microbial qualities of Silver, which has proven effective against more than 650 types of bacteria without any chemical additives. When operated with the pre-heating function, the water is heated to 176 F before it enters the nebulizer chamber. The mist exits the appliance at a comfortable temperature of 104 F. This neutralizes the cooling effect of mist to keep the room temperature from falling, and also keeps the water cleaner. A replaceable demineralization cartridge ensures a hygienic, pure water mist, without lime scale or mineral residues. Exchangeable demineralization cartridge / Quiet operation /Easy to clean and handle Suitable for rooms up to 860 sq. ft. Power consumption - 40W w/o pre-heating, 140W w/ pre-heating / Moisture output - up to 3.5 gallons / 24 hrs Water capacity - 2.0 gallons Dimensions - 9.8 x 11.0 x 17.3 Weight - 8.0 lbs.
