I’ve tested a lot of tech over the years that initially seemed pointless but was actually life-changing. Smart doorbells felt nosey until I stopped missing parcels. Fitness trackers seemed judgmental until they got me moving. Even air fryers – once dismissed by me as a fad (true story) – are now basically a kitchen essential.
A humidifier, though? That was one gadget I was certain I didn’t need. The kind of appliance meant for desert climates, not my British home in the 'shires', where damp patches appeared uninvited and windows steamed up just for fun.
