electric fragrance diffusers

Does anyone use a brand of plug-in fragrance diffusers, that they like? I have used Yankee, Bath/body works, homeworx and i can't find anything that works consistently.

 

 I haven't tried grocery store brands-Glade, Air Wick, etc., yet, but that's my next step. Recommendations anyone?thanks!

@10sluvr  Before I retired, I used to stock our Ladies' room at work with the Air Wick battery operated essential oil diffuser. It would send out a puff of scent every so often, depending on your chosen setting. Everyone loved it, but I had to change the battery about every 45 days. I don't know if it is still being offered.

The last few months I've been using febreeze / gain plug ins.  They're dual sided fragrance allows for a better, cleaner release of scent.  To me, they're the best I've ever used, expensive ones included.

Re: electric fragrance diffusers

I just bought one from Aroma Retail that I like very much.  Many of the scents they offer are the same one that are piped into the popular hotel chains.  Right now my house smells like the Aria in Vegas.  Next I'm trying Blue Ice that the Bellagio uses.  

I got a coupon code from facebook.  If you buy the wax burner you also get 3 free waxes and 35 percent off any other purchase.

I'm using a Glade Plug-in and it's kind of boom or bust. You seem to get an occasional burst of scent then nothing noticeable for a bit. I don't see any difference in scent with how it's adjusted. It has the dial on top you can spin to adjust the scent but it doesn't seem to do anything. I suspect my diffuser may be defective and only working intermittently, but then the scented oils last as long as they say they will, so maybe not?

Yes, they still make it.  I bought from Wally not too long ago.  Diff style than what you pictured.

 

Works GREAT but is a bit of a battery eater as you stated.

 

I don't have access to a plug where I wanted it, so this was a backup option for me.

PLEASE REMEMBER------ that these kinds of air fresheners are very bad for pets--my cat got so sick from a plug in diffuser I used that I spent a week of her having to go to the vet everyday for IVs and blood tests and other pokes and prods and xrays as the vet could not find anything organically wrong with her-- but she was not eating or drinking and just miserable---my DD just happened upon something online that addressed this very thing---I got rid of the plug in and aired out the house and within a day or 2, cat was back to normal. And it cost $1000 for that week at the vets.

I'm not a fan of harmful chemicals and I learned of a local small business that makes non-toxic wax melts that i use in a corded plug-in wax warmer. I know there are bigger companies that sell non-toxic wax melts but haven't tried them.
