VOCOlinc MistFlow VH1
Main features
The second item on our list is the VOCOlinc MistFlow VH1 humidifier. It earned its place by having an abundance of great features, only giving way to our No 1 pick because of the bigger size and higher price. But if you don’t mind a bulkier device and spending more, then you are sure to appreciate MistFlow’s Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant connectivity. It allows you to fully control your humidifier with just your voice or phone. Also, you won’t have to rely on your own feelings to determine what level of humidity you want – with the auto-target mode, you can select optimal humidity levels. For those who may not have any virtual assistants, the VOCOlinc app will help you control your MistFlow humidifier, though you should also be able to handle it manually.
Portability and Design
VOCOlinc humidifier is less conveniently portable than EvenBreeze, but it’s still possible to move it from one place to another (preferably when the tank is empty) without much difficulty. It only means that you might need more space on your table or counter. It can also offer a rainbow mood light that you can optionally adjust, picking from an unbelievable 16 million options. It’s easy to do using a spectrum setting on the app. You can even adjust the brightness to match your needs, making it an excellent choice for a night light.
Ease of use
There is an abundance of options on how you can control your device. By using any of the three most popular virtual assistants, through the app (which also allows you to select between 5 humidification speed levels), or manually (but you could only choose two speed levels). However, using manual controls won't be enough to get the most out of this humidifier. MistFlow uses a Type-C cord to charge and, once fully charged, has an impressive 30-hour runtime. The water tank also has an anti-bacterial layer to prevent mold growth inside the water tank.
💧 Value
Overall, you would get a lot of great features when purchasing this VOCOlinc humidifier. The downside is that you would need a virtual assistant or an app to take advantage of them, otherwise it’s as standard as any other humidifier. Besides, while the price might be better than non-portable humidifiers, it’s still not the cheapest option on this list, so you might want to consider if all the extra features are worth the price.
