Increase the amount of moisture in the air with this Eva ultrasonic humidifier. Extra moisture can help to make life a little more comfortable. Note: This unit is not an air conditioner and does not have a compressor or condenser inside. Evaporative coolers are designed for spot cooling and will not lower a room's ambient temperature. This unit is best used in dry climates or open spaces. Keep a window or door open to limit the rise of humidity and for better ventilation. Add ice to the tank and set the unit near you for optimal results.

Premium quality, beautiful design and functional
on January 28, 2017
Posted by: MichaelAndSophie
We've been using our "Eva" humidifier for over a month now and overall we're very happy with our purchase. This is the first humidifier we own and we purchased the "Eva" after several days of research online, reading reviews, pros & cons of the different types of humidifiers, etc... This humidifier is more expensive than your average ultrasonic humidifier, but it does come with a number of bells & whistles that do justify putting a little more money up-front, and feeling like you own a premium product (especially for a product we will be using everyday during the whole winter season)...
Pros (what we like):
- beautiful design, it's a statement piece you can leave in the middle of your living room without feeling ashamed :) Most other humidifier brands are quite ugly and are made of cheap plastic.
- can humidify up to 800-900 sqft, which is higher than usually advertised by most other comparable models. This was a big concern to us since we have a 700sqft open space with 12ft high ceilings, which would make any small humidifier useless.
- Remote control and LED screen display are nice / convenient to have and just add to the "premium" experience
- Automatic hydrostat that determines the humidity level and can shutdown the unit automatically when the room reaches the desired humidity level
- big reservoir, we leave it on all-day & night and basically refill it only 1x a day.
- it accepts essential oils (we have yet to buy some oil and try it, but very happy to have the option, most other units of that size didn't have it)
- quality of packaging and documentation (which includes a small water hardness test strip, convenient!)
Cons (what could be improved):
- the hygrometer seems quite sensitive and possibly inaccurate. There is a sensor in the remote control, which seems like a good thing since by placing the remote a few feet away from the unit itself, you'd be able to get a more precise humidity reading than right from the unit itself. However, we've seen sometimes the hygrometer reports inconsistent numbers, that change quickly up or down. And because our room is quite big, it never quite reaches the ideal humidity level of 45.
- the consumables (filtration cartridges / decalcification & cube) are quite expensive, Stadler Form should make their consumables cheaper than the competition, that would be a nice incentive for people to invest more up-front if they don't feel like paying another $60-$80 each season just to maintain and clean their units.
- the "warm" mist mode really does not seem to make much difference (the mist itself never comes out "warm" per se), and our concern is that it consumes a lot more energy when turned ON, so we basically use it in cold mist mode all the time.
Overall, we are very happy with our purchase of the EVA and still use it everyday.
