All instructions were followed. A slight diffusion (2 drops of essential oil), but alas, despite several attempts NO MIST. And when I say no is no. Zero microgoutelette has deigned to come out of this thing ... After a few minutes it will flash and you can not turn it off if not directly by unplugging the mains. I am trying to put it back in its original packaging and request reimbursement. I really am VERY disappointed with this product. ah! though! a positive thing, pretty soft white light ... yay ...
