It gets very dry where I live at this time of year. This is not just hard on my skin, but the 17% indoor humidity isn’t great for my houseplants. Can anybody recommend a humidifier? My priority is on reliability and although it isn’t essential, it should be able to start up when power is cut and restored via a smart plug. I’m looking forward to hearing what /c/houseplants suggests!

Edit: So far, I’m leaning towards options from ConsumerReports since they prioritize reliability. I’m curious if anybody has experience with any of these models: https://www.consumerreports.org/appliances/humidifiers/best-humidifiers-of-the-year-a1138350061/

    Got it. Winter + forced air heat opens up the possibility of a whole home humidifier but since you can’t go that route a evaporative humidifier or two is the way to go.
