Are there any oils that can not be used in this diffuser? Are citrus oils fine to use?

I've used citrus oils in this diffuser and they work fine. Very thick oils make the filter pad congested and I wouldn't recommend them. You'll know which oils I'm talking about as they come out of the bottle very slowly like patchouli and sandlewood. Chamomile oil is sometimes thick but oftentimes its the quality of the extraction process that determines if the oil is thin or thick. The processing of oils that involves heat in order to speed up the process destroys the beneficial plant constituents and will leave junk in there which most likely makes them thicker. Lavender oil from, say, the whole foods brand "365" is thicker than a more pure, water-like, and thin lavender oil from young living. I've used citrus oils in this diffuser and they work fine.

This product is junk. Fell apart in a couple months. I would keep looking for something better.

I recommend NOT using any cooking oils, such as olive oil, vegetable oil, sesame oil & the like! Citrus oils are fine, in fact, one of my favorite blends are, Lemmon & pepperment combo.Oh, as for the oil issue I'm just kidding!

I'd think any oil would be fine - the electric fan diffuses the scent of the oil (which has been dripped on a cotton pad) without heating it.

I've used citrus oils in mine. Just clean it out regularly with vinegar water.

I checked on Smiley Daisy's website, and it said that you can use citrus essential oils. Just make sure to use room temperature water. Hope this helps

This diffuser is designed to work only with 100% therapeutic essential oils. Make sure to get your essential oils from a reputable source.

Use any essential, depending on what you are using mister for, IE: lavender oil is great for massages or meditating, orange oil is great for entertaining.Oil is dropped into water reservoir.It's really a great item

I use mine with ANY Young Living Oils. I do notice that a few tend to stain the middle of the cover but that doesn't bother me at all. p.s. - I have several diffusers and this one is my favorite!

I don't believe you can use fragrance oils only essential oils. Fragrance oils will clog the device along with citrus essential oils.

You can use any essential oil - I've used lemon, peppermint, thieves, purification, peace & calming, lavender, sometimes I combine a couple drops to make my own blend.

I used it with a diffuser and you are correct. Too much power to actually diffuse.

You can only use pure 100% plant oil in these or you will gum up the diffuser that's why is shutting off on you ???use doterra oils

Yes, you can use it in oil diffuser. Sometimes I mix it with Eucalyptus, when kids are sick.

According to my daughter, who sells Do-Terra oils, diffusers won't work with distilled water. I just use tap water. It didn't say not to use with citrus, but I haven't tried citrus.

Sheryl, I ordered this for a friend so all I know is that she is using it in a large room. Hope this helps. She did have another diffuser from another company but was at a place where this one was being used and fell in love with it. I don't know how large a room it was.

Yes you can, I am using lemon, wild orange and breath (a blend of oils). I have not seen a problem yet. And yes I have seen those that you cannot use citrus oils, but so far so good.

S. Tracy - I use it (about 5 drops to 1/2 ounce) of glycerin and jojoba oil as a moisturizer for my face. I always hesitate to use any of the citrus oils "straight" on my skin, but Neroli is derived from blossoms, so I think it would be safe without a carrier oil. It has a very pleasing fragrance - I wouldn't hesitate to use it in a diffuser.
