URPOWER 2nd Gen 300ml Aroma Essential Oil Diffuser Night Light Ultrasonic Air Humidifier with AUTO Shut Off and 6-7 Hours Continuous Diffusing - 7 Color Changing LED Lights and 4 Timer Settings

Interestingly, I ordered this diffuser for my husband's office and at the same time, this pricier one Essential Oil Diffuser for Aromatherapy & Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier - BPA Free Diffuser for Essential Oils - 7 Colors & 4 Timer Settings - Auto Shut-Off - 300ml - The Essential Wellness for my own office.For all intents and purposes further confirmed after more than a week of usage - they are obviously identical machines. The more expensive one had a prettier outside box, has a different logo on it, has arrow to line up for the top and had more detailed directions - but everything about them was identical including the electrical plug and the added 150ml pouring cup. (this URPower one didn't come with the arrows to line up the cover, even though that is what is pictured on this listing). If you are considering purchasing the more expensive one, I hate to say it and "bash" the pricier one but it really is the identical diffuser once you get them out of the box and running. I wouldn't say this over a couple of dollars, but the price difference of about $14 was significant enough to capture at least my attention! I still very much appreciate the pricier one because it gave me all the details I needed and wanted throughout the listing and the delivery of it - it's listing and customer service appear to be more than likely US based. Please see my pics - 1: side by side with cover, 2: side by side without cover, 3: side by side with boxes and showing one of the measuring cups - identical one received with both diffusers.That is why I am giving a 5 star on this one because it gives so much value for the money. And also a 5 star to the other pricier one, because it had more support, more details and more helpful direction that I needed. I'm keeping both of them!!As a first time diffuser user, I am very pleased with the larger size of the reservoir at 300ml , the light options (on/off/low/high/one color/rotating colors), the misting options, the timer, the auto-off and the general look of it. No complaints with either one because they are performing identically and with reference to the pricier one, I really feel like I scored a great value on this URPower one!!P.S. they both emit the identical medium to low level "double beep" when they shut off, whenever shut off occurs either due to the timer ending or the automatic shut off when the water is completely used. This beep while sleeping or quietly enjoying the peace and calm of the diffuser almost sounds like an alarm and really ruins the moment. This seems quite contrary to the intent of the diffuser and essential oils but I don't see an obvious way to turn that off, but if that has to be, I guess I'll have to deal with it.

Ok so this thing is a great diffuser, especially for the price. It does the job perfectly, it’s durable, long lasting, and great settings.Another use we found was for it, rather by accident was near endless entertainment for our 3 year old. She found it captivating, enthralling might I even say “mist-ifying”.So whether you want it as it’s intended, or drained, refilled without oils and used as a toddler entertainment device this thing is a steal.

Works well, but it’s kind of finicky

I got laid off a year ago due to my company closing, so I was unable to buy a Christmas tree this year. I had the money for it, but I felt like it would be a waste when I’m going to have to throw it out after Christmas, anyway. I have not been in the Christmas spirit, at all and I thought that buying a diffuser and making it “smell” like Christmas would be more economical. This diffuser will last longer than a tree, plus I can use it all year long. I bought a box of holiday essential oils that included scents like gingerbread, sugar cookie, holiday spice, Christmas wreath, peppermint, and cinnamon. I mixed several of the scents together and they made the house smell wonderful. It certainly helped lift my spirits this holiday season. I plan to buy more oils like lavender, chamomile, orange, and rose to make the house smell delicious all year. The only issue that I had was that some of the oil got on my finger and I touched the part where it has “1HR, 3HR, and 6HR” and when I went to wipe that oil spot off the 6HR, it wiped the words, too. So it literally isn’t printed on there good. Otherwise, it works great. I usually keep mine in my bedroom and have it on high and the scent spreads nicely throughout the house. Of course you can also move it from room to room. It travels nicely. I’ve taken it to Las Vegas to have on in my room, as well as to relatives houses. Everyone who sees it loves it and asks where I got it. The various colors are also very nice, not overpowering. Even the bright colors are not obnoxiously bright. The price point was also perfect.

*** UPDATE 12/24/17I originally gave this product 3 stars because even though I loved it, the original item I purchased was having difficulty providing the advertised 20-hour diffusing time (the original one I received had a much shorter total run time and was shorter than advertised). However, the seller proactively contacted me and noted that they have updated their model, and he sent me the updated model at his cost. The new diffuser works perfectly! It is so good, that I just ordered another one as a gift for a friend. It covers a large space and runs for 20 hours if desired. Highly recommend for an open floor plan.11/1/17 I really love how this diffuser looks in our main living space. It is streamline and blends in with our casual and minimal decor. The diffuser itself is quiet and aesthetically pretty. It is also very easy to fill and use. I have to give it three stars though because it always leaves water in the base when it automatically turns off. I have messed with the settings and read the suggestions online and it still leaves several hours of diffusing. I was hoping it would diffuse for 10 hours on high and 20 hours on low, but instead it is more like 4 hours on high and 6 hours on low. I REALLY wanted to love this and buy 2 more for our bedrooms, but it does not make it for more than a 6 hour stretch so I will have to find different ones for nighttime.
