What if you can purify and humidify the air in your home in a unique way? Korean company Mosslab introduced Moss Air. It is a device that uses real moss to purify and humidify the air. It also works as a mini terrarium, creating a foggy effect on the plant. You can easily change the moss panel and control the mist direction with a magnetic ball.
If you want to use it in terrarium mode, you just need to block the exhaust port with the included magnetic ball. It'll fog up the moss over 60-second periods every three hours. If you want to humidify your surroundings, slide the ball across and let the mist out.
The device has a rechargeable 1,600mAh battery that lasts for about eight hours and a 400ml water tank. You can pull out the tank from the bottom to refill it or replace the paper filter. Mosslab includes three filters with the Moss Air. You can use it while it's plugged in, but the rechargeable battery means you can take it around.
Moss Air can remove dust, carbon dioxide, and harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) from the air, thanks to the bacteria in the moss. Moss Air will be available on Amazon in black or white for US$99 (around CA$134) by the end of January 2024.
