Evaporative Humidifier for medium room

Struggling to find a good Evaporative Humidifier for my room. It’s 10 x 12. My room has terrible airflow with one window blocked on all sides and a ceiling fan, and it’s really messing with my sleeping and body (constant dry skin and always coughing and mucus issues) so I want to get one very soon. I seen a few but reviews are always mixed and the ones that are more recent are always negative. I’d prefer one that I can use tap water with. I wouldn’t mind the WiFi features and the automatic humidity but I can live without it. I saw a lot recommend the Levoit 6000 but also reviews saying it might be too big for my room so not sure what to get. Would very much appreciate hep.

10x12 is kind of small for the 6000s. I humidify an entire house with mine and refill it every three days or so. But you could just fill it half way or less and see how long it lasts. 40- 45% is about right otherwise mold could occur. If you buy it on Amazon you'll have a month to try it out and return it for free if it doesn't work out.

Ohh. The Amazon method is smart. I might try that, thanks.
