LEVOIT LV600S Smart Warm and Cool Mist Humidifiers for Home Bedroom Large Room, (6L) 753ft² Coverage, Quickly & Evenly Humidify Whole House, Easy Top Fill, App & Voice Control - Quiet Sleep Mode

We use this in our condo apartment with a different unit in our bedroom. The Levoit works extremely well, keeping the apartment at a comfortable humidity level. My goal was to keep the apartment in the 40% range. We only use it in the auto mode, and I initially set the unit to 45%, but its humidity monitor reads lower than our stand-alone temp/humidity monitors. It would run constantly even though the other monitors were reading 45%. So I decided to decrease the target humidity, but you can only go in 5% increments using the on-device controls, and 40% was a bit too low. So I did install the Vesync app, which allows you to set any level you want. Our sweet spot is 43%. The app is easy to use and connects immediately to the unit, although I still think it’s ridiculous to have a “smart” humidifier, but to gradually adjust your humidity level in less than 5% increments, you will need the app.Cleaning is much easier than with past humidifiers I’ve had. I use one of those little fish-shaped floating cleaner things that many use in their aquariums, as well as humidifiers. They do a very good job, and so far, my routine is to rinse the unit out weekly and wipe all surfaces with a water and vinegar solution; we’ve had no mold or fungal growth. The unit we use in our bedroom is a Dreo, which also works very well, and it’s also set to 43%, which is our sweet spot. The Levoit is the quieter of the two and would not disturb anyone even if it’s at your bedside. This is a very well-made and good-looking device which I highly recommend.

We just finished our 3rd year of using this and it is by far the best humidifier we have ever purchased. In fact, we purchased another one that same year for our sons room and then last year a smaller Levoit for our daughters room (much smaller space). Please note that due to heavy minerals in our well water we have always used these using only distilled water. This year we changed to using RO water because we had a unit installed in our home last year and now we don’t have to purchase Distilled water. In my experience all humidifiers will output white dust unless we use mineral free water. Both the distilled and our now home installed drinking water system makes this unit run flawlessly with very little need for cleaning during the winter months.We love the WiFi capacity with these units as it is convenient for our family. We set each unit up with programs to come on 2 hrs before bedtime and stop running 30 minutes before typical wake up times. We can set the desired humidity levels and forget about it.I mentioned that with using distilled or RO water these stay super clean thought out the winter but the great thing is that when you do need to clean these, it is very easy compared to all other units we have ever had (and we’ve had many with varying brands). Just about everything comes off for ease of cleaning.We do not use the little port for essential oils so I cannot comment on that aspect of the units.So far these seem like they will be holding up much better than other brands so although they are a bit more $ I feel like we are getting a good value based on what durability is thus far.

Really works well. Sets up easily, intuitive controls and puts out a lot of mist even at lowest level. I keep it at 45% and the auto on off to keep at that setting is awsome. A couple of slight things I don't like: Hard to clean the heater head which is recessed, and after I clean the system, it takes the humidity sensor a long time to dry out and start reading accurately again. Difficult to determine exactly where sensor is located but tried drying various parts to no avail. Otherwise, great product.

I needed to humidify an addition to the house that has its own independent HVAC, which means it's not tied in with my whole house humidifier. It gets extremely dry in the winter and I have guitars that need consistent humidity. My luthier has a similar model to this and has been happy with his for a couple of years, so I took a chance on the same brand. It's easy to fill, and I like that. It's extremely quiet, especially when using the steam mist. The mist is extremely fine so it doesn't settle. Lots of folks have complained about the hygrometer and it is somewhat unstable. It will get you in the ballpark, but monitoring with a separate hygrometer suggests it's usually quite low. For example, to get to 45% in the room, I'm usually running a 55% setting. It's in the manual that you don't want this thing on the floor; you need it at tabletop height. Mine is a little lower than that, and I think the issue is that the hygrometer gets fooled by the unit's own mist, so until the humidity dissipates from the location of the machine, it tends to think it's satisfied. This leads the unit to cycle a fair amount, but I don't see any particular harm to that behavior. In general, it holds humidity about where I want it at a 55% setting, but this varies depending on how hard it's working. Drier air means the above effects gets exacerbated, and then for me to get low 40s, I need to ask for 60 or 65. It's mildly annoying but not fatal. It has an auto-off if it runs out of water. I gave up using distilled water as I'm using over half a gallon a day in winter, so tap water it is. Ours is fairly soft and high in mineral content, and I haven't seen any obvious deposits or performance issues in 3 months of steady usage. Seems to be a good unit.UPDATE, 1/2/25: This unit continues to perform well. One quirk about its internal hygrometer I'll add is that if it's really dry and the unit hasn't run in a while, it tends to read ridiculously high--like it'll say it's 65% in the room when it's really 30%. The unit pumps moisture when it's first turned on, and this brief cycle is usually enough to dampen the hygrometer and get it reading more in its more sane range. Sometimes I cycle it twice and then it's fine. Whenever it's dry, it's set and forget and I just put in water. As for the tap water thing, DON'T DO IT. At the end of a season, I had a film on walls, windows, everywhere. And the unit needed a heck of a cleaning. I got tired of buying gallons and gallons of distilled water, so I bought a Vevor distiller on here for under $100 and it's paying for itself as we speak. If you're a regular user of this unit, I do recommend distilling your own water.
