Stadler Form Oskar Big White

We now have experience with 2 units which have been used for a total of about 1.5 years. The 1st unit broke after about a year and no longer recognized the water level.

The Oskar is certainly beautifully designed and fits well in your living room without being too noticeable. Unfortunately, the humidification itself leaves a lot to be desired. When the filters are new out of the packaging, the humidification will be reasonably adequate. Although he did not manage to reach 50% in my living room, even in top condition.

But after 2 weeks of running 24/7, the filters already start to harden and the filters absorb much less water. The result is that the humidity does not exceed 35% even on the highest setting. And if you want to keep the filters in top condition, you can buy new ones every month for €40 (!!) per set. A ridiculous price for a part that has to be replaced so often. With prices like that, this humidifier just isn't economically attractive. I would absolutely not recommend him.

I've had 2 of these Oskars. First went back after 5 weeks for repair and when coolblue sent me a new one I returned it after a few weeks. The Oskar was in a room of 32.5m2 with me but was absolutely unable to get the humidity to a good level. It usually came to just above 40%, after a full night at full power. Thanks for the amazing service coolblue! Thanks to you I'm not stuck with this worthless device.

In itself a beautiful thing, a lot of potential I thought. First few days the humidity went from 30% to 50%. Top. He couldn't go any higher than that, not even at full power.

After a day or so, the humidity slowly dropped again, to about 35%. It turned out that the glue used for the label on the filter (you can't remove it) pulls through the filter. The top 4 centimeters have completely hardened and are no longer able to absorb moisture. Since air also chooses the path of least resistance, this meant that the device was almost useless.

Had contact with coolblue and helped very well (as always, chapeau). Incidentally, in my opinion, coolblue is one of the best in this area, customer-friendliness knows no boundaries.

Well, I got another one. Full of good must be filled again and put into use. Unfortunately, after two days, the filters begin to turn yellow and harden. Same story. Put a hygrometer on the oskar: first day an outflow of 65%, now two days later only 50%. (both with a full tank).

Finally, I find refilling very difficult if the thing is a bit higher through the cover. But that depends on where you place it.

Unfortunately, looking for something else.
