I used this for about a week, and the water-saving function seems to be quite effective. However, when I used the mist setting, the gas in my house would shut off, so I gave up using it. It had some scratches to begin with, so please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about minor details. Everything in the photos is included. It will be shipped in the original box, wrapped in a shopping bag or similar. It will be secured with styrofoam, so I won't use bubble wrap. The original box has scratches, stains, and dents. Please only proceed with the transaction if you agree to the above. 31
