Doshisha's New Easy Maintenance Steam Humidifier

Doshisha Co., Ltd., a leading developer and marketer of lifestyle products headquartered in Osaka, Japan, has announced the launch of a new steam humidifier, the "Easy Maintenance Steam Humidifier", set to be available in mid-September 2025. The product will be sold through Doshisha's official online shop, "Doshisha Marushe", and various electronics retailers.

The Importance of Humidity Control

Maintaining appropriate indoor humidity levels is essential for comfort and health. Doshisha offers two models of humidifiers—steam and ultrasonic—giving users options to suit different preferences and environments. The steam type effectively generates warm mist by boiling water, reducing the risk of allergens and maintaining a stable room temperature.

However, traditional humidifiers can pose health risks if not cleaned properly. Issues such as mold and bacterial growth can lead to "humidifier lung" and other health concerns. Thus, Doshisha has created the "Easy Maintenance Steam Humidifier" that focuses on hygiene and easy cleaning. The new model retains its predecessor's key features while being compact enough for spaces like children's rooms.

Key Features of the Easy Maintenance Steam Humidifier

1. Effortless Cleaning

The humidifier features a removable lid and water tank, making it easy to wash and maintain. Traditional steam humidifiers often deal with mineral buildup (limescale) from tap water. In contrast, this model allows users to clean thoroughly, ensuring cleanliness and hygiene throughout its use.

2. Hygienic Steam Production

Utilizing the steam generation method, this humidifier produces high-temperature steam that resists bacterial growth. This process ensures that the steam emitted into the room remains clean and minimizes the impact on ambient room temperatures.

3. Child-Safe Design

With a built-in lock on the lid, the humidifier prevents small children from accidentally opening it, significantly lowering the risk of burns. Moreover, its uniquely designed nozzle ensures that the temperature of the steam is not excessively hot near areas where touchable surfaces exist. The device also incorporates a magnetic plug for the power cord, providing safety by easily disconnecting if pulled.

4. Simple Water Refill Structure

The water tank is detachable, similar to rice cookers, for straightforward refilling. With a capacity of about 1.6 liters, the humidifier can generate a maximum humidity output of approximately 350 ml per hour, providing effective humidification for various room sizes.

5. Quiet Operation for Bedrooms

Designed to operate quietly, particularly in weak mode, this humidifier minimizes the noise typically associated with steam production, making it suitable for use in bedrooms during the night.

6. Adjustable Humidity Levels

Users can easily switch between three humidity levels: low, medium, and high. The humidifier also features a cleaning mode that helps remove mineral buildup effortlessly.

7. Stylish Design

This humidifier features a chic square design available in calm monochrome colors—white and black—to suit any decor.
