It’s time for fall allergies, and “moisture-sucking radiators will soon follow.” But that doesn’t mean you have “to haul out that drab gray humidifier.” Upgrade to Fred. This fetching humidifier, made by the Swiss company Stadler Form, “wards off seasonal congestion and parched skin, and looks like a cast member of Wall-E.” It runs silently and produces hot steam that’s free of bacteria and minerals. Available in assorted colors.
