This is a fireplace-style humidifier and essential oil diffuser: a small brown wooden-look cabinet with glowing logs behind the glass and a lit mist slot on top, so the cool mist rises like flickering flames. You get the cosy look of a fireplace with none of the heat, smoke or fuel, plus continuous humidification and oil diffusion to freshen a room. Add water and a few drops of your favourite oil, and it fills a bedroom, lounge or office with gentle fragrance while easing dry, stuffy air. A remote control handles power, light and mist from across the room, and the timer options with auto shut-off when the water runs low make it comfortable to leave running while you relax. It suits chilly Nairobi evenings, apartments with no real fireplace and anyone who loves a warm, ambient corner. On a TV unit or bedside table, it becomes a talking point as well as a diffuser.

Buying guide
The flame is created by light shining through mist, so it looks best in a dim room or in the evening; in bright daylight the effect is softer. Use clean room-temperature water and only a few drops of oil, then wipe the tank dry after use so oil does not build up. Place it on a flat, water-safe surface with a little space above the slot so the mist can rise freely. Because it runs from a USB cable, you can power it from a USB plug adapter or a laptop, which makes it handy on an office desk. Use the timer at night so it switches itself off, and clean the water tank weekly with a soft cloth.
How it compares
Compared with a standard round aroma diffuser, this does the same job of misting and scenting but adds the warm look of a log fire, so it doubles as décor. Compared with an electric fireplace heater, it gives no heat and uses very little power. Choose it for ambience and fragrance, not for warming a room.
