Using a humidifier in your home is an excellent way to keep your household healthy. Not only are humidifiers great at preventing and treating skin and throat dryness, but they can also suppress aggravating flu symptoms or the common cold. They're even great for pets! When it comes to the best home humidifiers, here is a list of our top picks.
Everlasting Comfort Humidifier
Comes with a built-in essential oil tray
This cool mist home humidifier is excellent for large rooms. With its 6-liter water tank, the Everlasting humidifier can last up to 50 hours while moisturizing rooms that are up to 500 square feet. Featuring a built-in essential oil tray, you can add to your health benefits by placing drops of your favorite aromatherapy oils into the tray. The oils are then circulated through the cool mist and into the air in your home. This home humidifier has an auto-off function and does not require the use of filters.
HuPro Premium Ultrasonic Cool & Warm Mist Humidifier
Featuring hot and cool mist options
This HuPro home humidifier offers both warm and cool mist options. With its 4-liter water tank and five speed levels, this humidifier can moisturize large areas for up to 30 consecutive hours. If you choose to cleanse the air in your bedroom while you sleep, the built-in sleep mode function will shut the machine off after 12 hours or when the water runs out. Use the warm mist settings for aromatherapy with essential oils or the cool setting to soothe your skin and lungs.
Honeywell HCM350W Germ Free Cool Mist Humidifier
UV technology kills up to 99.9 percent of bacteria
If the air in your home is dry, this Honeywell cool mist humidifier features a 1-gallon tank that can moisturize small or medium-sized rooms for up to 24 hours. The built-in UV technology can kill up to 99.9 percent of bacteria in the water, ensuring that your air remains clean and safe.

Homasy Cool Mist Humidifier Diffuser
This convenient humidifier is only one piece
The Homasy humidifier and diffuser comes in one convenient piece and provides up to 12 to 30 hours of continuous operation. With three built-in settings, you can choose from high mist mode (which delivers 12 hours of mist), low mist mode (which delivers 30 hours of mist), and sleep mode (which automatically shuts off when the 2.5-liter tank runs out of water). To use this home humidifier, simply remove the top lid and fill the tank with water. Add some essential oils directly into the water for aromatherapy benefits.
Levoit Humidifier
Equipped with a remote control
If you're looking for a cool and warm mist humidifier that can automatically adjust its moisture levels according to the needs of your room, then this Levoit humidifier is a great choice. Fill the 6-liter tank with water and set it aside in a room as big as 753 feet. With a built-in safety mechanism, this humidifier automatically shuts off when the water runs out, which is typically around 60 hours of continuous use.
