LEVOIT Smart Humidifier 6L
This 6L humidifier does diffusing quite well. While it may not be as efficient as real diffusers, it still does pretty good.

A 2-in-one machine. Diffuser and humidifier at the same time. If you’ve ever thought, I wish my diffuser could also handle winter humidity levels, this Levoit smart model is works fine. The six-liter tank dwarfs everything else and runs up to 60 hours, automatically toggling output via built-in humidity sensing. The VeSync app (Android/iOS) lets you schedule on/off cycles, adjust target humidity, and drop the device into Alexa or Google Home routines. For instance, “Run peppermint mist at 8 AM” right after your alarm triggers. While the app can definitely have some improvements, it is still really useful and I use it all the time.
There’s no separate oil cup; instead, you add 8–12 drops directly onto a cotton aroma pad in the base, which keeps oil out of the ultrasonic chamber. Scent isn’t quite as punchy as a dedicated diffuser, but for background fragrance plus serious humidification, the trade-off rocks. Cleaning is painless: the top-fill lid comes off easily, so washing isn't really difficult. I would definite go for this if your not really too into the nitty gritty of essential oils, and are into the convenience of use instead. Also, another plus is that it is BPA free.
Cons:
Cotton aroma pad system mutes scent compared to direct-water diffusers; fine for background, weak for that "wow" effect with the smell. You'll need to use more of your essential oil blend to get the desired effect.
App requires account login for some reason; if you hate cloud logins, skip it.
