Simple, elegant diffuser that works great! Don't really need anything more
I did so much research when looking for a diffuser and I was considering some very expensive models. After all, you only want to buy a diffuser once, right? And you want to get the best one out there. Now that I have this doTERRA Petal Diffuser, I'm wondering what the big deal was. I love this model! Here's why:
- It is so easy to use. I guess you could say it's dummy-proof. It's got two buttons on the front. One is for the night light (the entire white part lights up) and the other is a timer.
- It's easy to clean: you just wipe out the inside with a cloth. That's it. I'll admit I don't clean mine often, though. Just when it smells moldy. I use mine nightly so that's about every 3 or 4 weeks.
- I love the shape. It doesn't look weird or new age-y or phallic like some of the others out there. It actually looks cool.
- The size is perfect for a normal-sized bedroom.
- The price is good in comparison to the competition.
When I was looking for the "perfect" diffuser, I drove myself crazy comparing one model to another. I was willing to spend whatever it took to get the one I would keep for life. However, I got so caught up in what some of the very expensive diffusers offered that I wasn't able to make a decision. Finally I caved and just got this one. I figured a small investment (aka, a small price) meant a small risk. Now that I have it, I understand more that the functionality of most diffusers is pretty basic: they infiltrate the air with a scent plus maybe they have a few features, like nightlights, timers, etc. Funny enough, the simplicity and elegance of this diffuser is what made it perfect for me.
One last thing, a lot of people harp on how the top is hard to get off or it drips, etc. Don't let these comments sway you too much. I don't necessarily want to disagree with them, but I'll just say that I just don't think about these things when I think about this product.
