Testing the Crane Humidifier with Sound Machine

I am a first time Mum to Margot, 3 months old. With my daughter’s wellbeing at the forefront of my mind, I am always on the look out for affordable and effective ways to promote better sleep for all of us!
We were able to use the humidifier to create a relaxing environment for Margot’s bedtime routine. The light and sound features are incredibly practical, meaning there is no need for an additional sound machine or night light, providing a cost-effective bonus which is especially important when on a mat leave budget! Margot usually sleeps best with background noise, so the sound machine feature proved especially effective for getting her off to sleep calmly and keeping her relaxed. The choice of 7 colours on the night light is also a fond feature as we were able to create a more personalised ambience within our bedroom, which was also great for night feeds.

The large 3.8 litre tank is easy to fill and lasts for a long time without needing to clean it due to the anti-microbial properties and the integrated filter which removes impurities from the water before it is vapourised. The top fill tank is also detachable and dishwasher safe which was very easy and quick to clean when required, saving precious time as a new Mum. My partner suffers from allergies during the summer months, which can make it difficult for him to breathe at night. The aroma tray feature works brilliantly for adding your own essential oils and have made sleeping a lot more comfortable for him. This product is beneficial for all the family with a very user-friendly design, it is easy to assemble and operate. The four in one feature offers a great product for new Mum’s on a budget.

Final verdict

Great value for money, easy to use and works well as a humidifier, vaporiser, sound machine and night light all in one product.

FAQs

Do I need a filter?

You don't need a filter, as there's an integrated ceramic filter that removes impurities.

At what age can I use a humidifier?

You can use a humidifier for any age, but it is recommended that for young children, a cold mist humidifier is used rather than a warm mist.

Can I add essential oils?

There is a removable tray at the bottom, so you can add vapour pads or essential oil pads to create a scented mist.
