I'll start with the one negative. This does not run by itself or continually. It runs in 15 seconds (I think, can't remember) intervals before it stops to warm up more liquid and then it will start again shortly after.You also have to hold the button down the entire time. So if you're looking for something more automated, this won't do it right out the box.With that out the way, we can talk about how well it works for the price! Even with the small negatives above, I think this is still a 5 star unit. The quality seems to be very good for the price and does not look cheap.The remote, while having to be held down, does have a very long cord making it easier to use. You can also buy different remotes/timers to use with this so you don't have to hold the button down. Which eliminates the biggest negative and for the price I wouldn't expect it to come with all the bells and whistles. I included a picture of the remote and you can see the red light which comes on when the unit is warmed up and ready to make fog.As far as fog production. WOW!! I attached a picture of me testing it in our garage and in one cycle the whole place was filled up. That picture is from the first cycle of fog production, not multiple ones, and it was still making fog. Makes more than enough fog by far!Lastly, I used this for a much different reason. I was testing how much my AC ducts were leaking in my attic. So I positioned this below one of my returns, and because the remote is so long I could run it to the attic to hold down the button. I then ran it while my AC was going and watched to see where fog came out. Fog did come out of areas wth small leaks where tape was coming up or joints weren't sealed. It worked perfectly for what I wanted to do and maybe we can use it for something else more standard down the road.Oh ye, it does come with a small bottle of juice. Enough to fill up the tank and a little more which has been more than enough for what I've used it for so far.All in all, great buy that I would absolutely buy again if I need another one!
