Slow Sighs
The 'Oh.' Humidifier
Whispers 'oh.' at twelve-minute intervals.
$179
The 'Oh.' Humidifier is a standard cool-mist humidifier with one uncommon feature. At twelve-minute intervals, day and night, it issues a soft, human-recorded "oh." — the sound of a person reading something mildly disappointing in an otherwise quiet room.
The humidifier is otherwise excellent. It runs for fourteen hours on a single tank. It is remarkably quiet between intervals. The mist is even. The reservoir is visible.
The "oh." itself is not loud. Most users stop noticing it after the first week. A small percentage of users never stop noticing it. Either outcome is consistent with the design.
Field Review
“My bedroom has been at 42% humidity for six months. I live with the oh. It is part of the room now.”
