Stadler Form Aquila Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier Review
|
We are always looking for an inexpensive mini humidifier that is easy to travel with or move from room to room and we think we have found one in the Stadler Form Aquila mini humidifier by Stadler Form. It weighs only 2.4 pounds yet can hold 0.8 of a gallon with a humidity output of up to a gallon a day. It is virtually quiet and simple to use with no controls other than an on/off switch.

Summary
The Stadler Form Aquila ultrasonic humidifier combines the ease of transporting and the low price of a travel mini style humidifier while humidifying a good size area at the same time. We like how easy it was to set this up and operate and that it offers the water protection of the more expensive models. We think the addition of two controls, one to regulate the humidity level and one to control the mist output would be helpful and add more value. However, most persons looking for a small humidifier to travel with or for their personal space are not necessarily looking for an expensive product with all the extras and this is the case with the Aquila.
