Just an observation, but most of all that's out there are "cool mist" ultrasonic units - that aerosolize whatever contaminants are present in tap water. Coincide that with the shortage of bottled distilled water. Can't find any anywhere... Mostly a rant, but also a concern. Most folks filter tap water, but what's that matter if you're ingesting it thru your lungs from running shoddy tap water thru a chynese made humidifier?

I read a study of a child who drank distilled water had tin poisoning from drinking distilled water. I do believe it because when I had a distiller I would clean the steel boiler everyday and I would always see the napkin extremely dirty looking. Not sure if it was the residual heavy metals from the steel boiler itself or what. I was also not feeling too good after a few weeks of just distilled water. Either way, water is going to grab whatever it can even if it means tin, copper, it will grab anything. I lost confidence in it and stick to only reverse osmosis, but that's a whole other subject of PLASTIC... because the r/o filters are basically plastic membranes and there you are drinking plastic.
So it's either heavy metal toxicity or plastic toxicity.
