Review of 7146 Travel Humidifier by Rik Prowen – Have humidifier, will travel
Written by Duncan under Humidifier Reviews | No Comments
Anyone who skis will recognise this – loads of fun during the day; loads of fun après ski; chalet bedroom too dry in the evening. The result is a stuffy nose, drinking lots of water to stop your mouth drying out (I suppose that could be the alcohol, too), and dry skin. Not any more…I took the Air-O-Swiss Travel Humidifier with me to the excellent Du Pré Chalet in Morzine this week (see www.snowline.co.uk), and it works a treat.
It’s compact so fits in your luggage, comes with a full range of plug adaptors, looks good and comes with a carrying bag to keep all the bits together.
This unit’s compact because you supply your own water reservoir in the form of a mineral water bottle – the humidifier’s supplied with an adaptor to fit standard bottles.
And it really makes a difference. It’s been freezing outside all week with lots of snow but, with the humidifier running in my room, I’m getting none of the dry air symptoms.
I wish I’d got a bigger bottle though, as I have to refill it three or four times a day. This humidifier is definitely coming with me when I travel – lots of hotels are dry even when they’re not in the Alps.
