Does this item use heat or is it a cool mist diffuser?

It seems to be cool, however, be cautious, we've had problems with a few falling apart on us.

Okay, I answered this morning with "warm." But then I got to thinking about it. I have the humidifier mounted on the dash in front of the heating vent, so it feels warm. I went outside and checked. It is actually a cool mist. So sorry. Hope you didn't order something you didn't want because of what I said.

I have had the diffuser since they were first placed on the market and have always used the warmer settings. I will often use cool as I finish the blow dry to set the curl.

Yes it is a warm mist, in fact if you have a small room it will warm up the room without heater. It only had a mineral filter, to remove minerals from water, that has to be changed every 90 days or sooner. You can buy them on Amazon. We used it for years for my son and still have it, he is grown up and we don't use it anymore. You do have to clean it often, specially if you use tap water but the cleaning isn't too bad.

I live on Long Island, NY and we have humid temperatures only in the summer months. I have used it many times and I feel that it does cool you down. It sprays a light mist, plus the fan, which is a great thing to have outdoors and makes the humidity bearable!

It has settings for heat and air control. I use a higher air flow for drying and a lower for brush styling. I love this hair dryer.

I am satisfied with the unit as a whole, I found the price to be reasonable. I know that some diffusers cost over a hundred dollars and I have never used an expensive one to compare this one to. There is no heat used and it takes a couple minutes to get going, once it does it puts out a good mist and the room is covered with the scent.

Cool mist. It's basically a fan that spins water into the air...it's loud and I found it not to be very effective.

No mist just air and it comes out the lower front. This is a could humidifier not a warm, so there is no mist.

No. This diffuser just lightly diffuses moisture into the air...perfect foressential oils...If you need more moisture, it is better to do so with a humidifier! Hope this helps you!

it is cool only. no option for warm. i do like this diffuser though... has timed function or just "on" - high capacity and an option for low or high.

I use this in my bedroom at night, and set it on a wood side table. I have not had any problems with condensation on the table or anything around the diffuser. The mist it emits is so fine that it doesn't seem to settle anywhere in particular, just diffuse into the air.

No, the diffuser does not get hot and uses ultrasonic vibrations to create a very fine mist. It can be set to turn off at certain intervals. I love mine.

ultrasonic - cool mist. Don't confuse with evaporative units. Unit is almost silent, and produce a cool steam-like mist.

It is coolish. I also have fragile, ultrafine, baby-hair, and this dryer is not too hot. I can even use it on the hot setting when it is wedged on my towel rack and I am about a foot away.

It appears to have a fan. I use it in my garage on a low flat stool. Heat very adequate. I do sit close to it. realistic fireplace effect

It's only a fan, not a thermal heater as the title implies, so it's moving the air around it, whatever the ambient temperature is... In the summer the air felt luke warm, in the winter the air feels cooler than ambient temp. If you are drying a mani & pedi, it feels a bit warmer in the later cycles. I usually use 3 cycles for smudge-proof drying.
