Philippe This unit is the original treavl/portable humidifier. I shopped around and looked at the several imitators, but decided to go with the Air-O-Swiss name/reputation that I know and love. This unit is tiny, and comes with a power adapter with both US and European plugs and a soft cloth carry bag.I use it at McMurdo Station, Antarctica where the average humidity is in the single digits. It puts out less water than my full-size Air-O-Swiss unit at home, but a remarkable amount for a unit this size.The blue light that others have complained about is fairly bright as most blue LEDs are but it's no brighter than most night-lights, and hasn't bothered my sleep. The blue light switches to a red light when the water runs out kind of a nice heads-up feature if you don't have the output set high enough to see the steam coming from the spout.Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to make this purchase again, and I'd replace this unit with the same if needed (unless or until Air-O-Swiss comes out with their own new replacement/upgrade). There are a couple other copies that are less expensive, but I haven't tried them I went with the quality/service that I trusted at the cost of the higher price tag.
