As indoor air becomes dry due to heating in winter, demand for humidifiers among consumers is growing. Heated humidifiers are hygienic because they humidify the air by boiling water, but they also raise significant concerns about burns from hot water and leaks. Cuckoo is expanding its humidifier lineup with a new product that draws on its expertise in pressure-cooker control.

The new humidifier features a "pressure-free heating" method that applies Cuckoo's pressure-cooker control technology. It safely boils water to 100°C by controlling the internal pressure so it does not rise even during three-stage heating.

The humidifier is equipped with a seven-layer safety system to guard against hazards that may occur during use. It features a safety ball structure that helps prevent water from leaking if the unit tips over, a leak-prevention design, a dual-opening lock, and an anti-slip structure. It also has a temperature sensor to prevent overheating, a low-water sensor, and a child-lock function to prevent children from operating it without permission.

Its dual-covering design separates the inner water tank from the outer cover that users touch, helping keep the exterior from getting too hot during heating. The transparent glass tank lets users watch the entire process as the water boils up to 100°C.

The humidifier also offers a generous capacity and convenient maintenance features. Its 3-liter tank provides up to 11 hours of continuous use on a single fill. When the tank needs descaling, users can add citric acid and run the "automatic cleaning mode" to clean the bottom of the tank as well.

The design combines a transparent glass tank with a subtle mood light, allowing it to blend naturally into a variety of spaces. The mood light offers three colors and three brightness levels, so users can adjust the ambiance to suit the space.

A Cuckoo representative said, "Drawing on Cuckoo's distinctive expertise in controlling pressure in rice cookers, we are introducing a new product that preserves the hygienic benefits of heated humidifiers while easing safety concerns." The representative added, "We will continue to introduce products that make consumers' daily lives healthier and more comfortable in response to seasonal changes in living conditions."
