Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is our second diffuser. We have this one by Vitruvi, and we also own one manufactured by Young Living, which you can find here: Young Living Essential Oil Home Ultrasonic Diffuser with Dew Drop Design Tear Drop. This review will be a comparison between the two. We use them both almost daily. First and most important, they both function very well as aroma diffusers. They each perform this function by ultrasonic technology (not heating), and they both have an automatic shut-off once they go dry. They can also each function only as a small humidifier if you prefer to only use them in that way. They also both have a light, but the light on the one from Young Living has more of an ambient quality to it. The light feature on the Vitruvi is more of what I would define as a basic nightlight. If you want something that is more “mood setting,” say for the bedroom, then I like the light provided by the Young Living option the best. (see photo) Each one can function without the light being on, but what I like about the Vitruvi design is that the light has a completely separate button, so you can use it only as a nightlight should you prefer. With the Young Living model, you press the on-off button once for the light and the diffuser to come on, press it again and the light goes off but the diffuser stays on, press it again and everything shuts off. Another selling point for me for the Vitruvi model is that you can have it work as a diffuser in intervals. You press the power button once and it will turn green and will run continually for around three hours (the Young Living diffuser will run for about an hour longer). You press it again and it will turn amber and will work in intervals of around 30 seconds, and with this setting it will run for around seven hours. Press it again and it powers off. Again, the on-off button for the light is completely separate. As far as the design and build quality, both are about the same height, but the Young Living design is wider, and aptly named on the manual as “Dewdrop Diffuser.” The Vitruvi is also aptly named “Stone Diffuser,” because the outer casing is made of thick porcelain. It is fairly heavy, has a much more solid feel. and just a more luxurious look to it than does the Vitruvi design. Both come with detailed, easy to follow instructions. I do highly recommend the Vitruvi Stone Diffuser. It is clearly of high quality and I think the fact that you can set it to diffuse intermittently is a major plus factor. If things change as we continue to use it, I will update this review and I am happy to answer any questions you may have. I hope it helped you to some degree…thanks for reading!
