What we like about Duux Beam 2

  • Smart connectivity enables convenient remote control via smartphone app, [Amazon Alexa](https://amazon.com), and [Google Assistant](https://google.com).
  • Built-in hygrometer and adjustable humidistat maintain precise, automated humidity levels.
  • Powerful mist output (up to 350 ml/h) quickly increases humidity in living spaces and bedrooms.
  • Quiet operation (under 32-35 dB) makes it suitable for use while sleeping.
  • Large 5-liter water tank allows for up to 25 hours of continuous runtime without frequent refills.
  • Energy-efficient design, consuming a maximum of only 27 watts.

What we don't like about Duux Beam 2

  • Requires regular maintenance and cleaning to prevent mineral buildup and mold.
  • Water refilling can occasionally cause minor spills or require careful handling.
  • Ultrasonic frequency might be perceived or found annoying by some household pets.
  • App connectivity and pairing can sometimes be finicky for initial setup.

Verdict

The Duux Beam 2 is a smart floor-standing ultrasonic humidifier featuring a 5-litre top-fill water tank, a mist output of 350 ml/h, and a power consumption of 27W, making it ideal for rooms up to 40 m² with a runtime of up to 25 hours. Key characteristics include an adjustable self-regulating hygrostat (40–90% range), built-in temperature and humidity sensors, a high-resolution LED display, and three distinct mist settings. Main advantages include ultra-quiet operation under 35 dB, multi-platform app control via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi with Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility, a detachable remote control that stores directly in the unit, and a dedicated compartment for aromatherapy oils. However, notable drawbacks include a risk of localized over-humidification if placed poorly, a reliance on periodic descaling maintenance, and occasional initial app connectivity or setup syncing issues reported by some users.
