This won't be encouraging mold to grow in your home. MOST homes, at least those outside of Florida, can benefit from a humidifier. They'll help your home versus hurting it. let alone better for you, your skin, babies, and more. You should set it at a comfortable 40 degrees or so humidity. It wont get to dangerous levels unless the room is exceptionally small.
If your homes humidity level is at 80% or higher, then yeah… But since the comfort zone is between 40-60%, you’re not going to see mold growth. Besides, there are tablets that last for weeks.
Great review! I'll definitely be trying out SmartMi next. I have Switchbot's humidifier, works great and importantly, lasts 12+ hours but it's not HomeKit compatible.
I just looked up the SwitchBot one. It says it’s controllable by apple HomePod. Which is a very weird way of saying it. I use SwitchBot on homebridge so you may be able to use it on that if you want to give homebridge a try. I like the price so I might try this one out
@@Donilan Thanks for that. Didnt know about this one. Although I have to say this humidifiers sucks(Xiaomi). After using it for 6 months the motor failed on me and when i did some research to found out this is common and there is no way to just replace the motor, at least where i live. The design is flawed and even if the motor is replaced it will fail again because it cannot handle the build up of minerals. So, I would highly not recommend this humidifier.
@@xblur17 that's true, hi the rain effect is reduced after a week. To restore it you need to clean the glass tube from inside with microfiber cloth. Yet still it's a fantastic device.
Just ordered! Pretty excited
SmartMi definitely seem to be on a roll. I can't wait to get my hands on this one!
4:00 100% humidity doesn't mean you're underwater. It just means the air holds as much moisture as it can at that temperature.
100% humidity does not feel like you are underwater :). Air has a maximum amount of water that it can absorb :).
Great, now I can encourage even more mold to grow in my house

I just ordered a SmartMi Rainforest. I'll be getting it next week.
I saw the thumbnail and the title. I want one of these now.
Can you add a sound test? Of the rain sound? Sleep sound etc? Thanks my girlfriend loves rain sound to fall asleep
$300? In Europe (Netherlands) this costs only $170.
Love Smartmi products! I have two air purifiers from them😁 I Have the Vocolinc humidifier and it’s on a glass stand. It gets very wet… ha ha 😅
Looks neat! Great review
is it evaporative or ultrasonic?
Evaporative.
Ooo I want one!!!
no test this is only marketing....sorry forget this thing!!!! You need calcfree water all the time and it's too loud!!
$300 is a lot bro. That’s way too much.
Does this work with Google home?
i wish it had LEDs to light up the rainfall at night.
this would be neat......especially if it had a sort of scene that replicated the purple flash of lightning thru the rain
Yeah like the LG signature air purifier

@@emmanuelj18. Good to know, I won't buy this then I guess
Own the older models and love them. At 300 it's DOA.
I would buy this if it was below $200
It is now, atleast in the EU :-)
Definitely needs thread especially at that price it needs all the bells and whistles.
Why can’t we have a HomeKit humidifier that ISN’T $300???
Are we asking for the moon, or something???
As a person who lives in Southeast Asia, this is kinda useless. But still… Nah, nevermind… I think I’ll pass.
The "rain" effect disappeared after 1 week.
Hi, could you please tell me more about this?
That doesn't even make sense

Do you still have it? If so how is it@@danielbelik
Considering you have the best humidifier and air filter over there, you sure sound stuffy and nasaly. Maybe the devices aren't working that well...
