The MAVORI hygro-thermometer made a very good impression in our test.
The hygro-thermometer is a precise and reliable device for measuring humidity and temperature indoors. It does not require a battery and is environmentally friendly.
The analogue system is not susceptible to interference and is easy to read on the 12 cm display. The coloured comfort zones indicate when the room should be aired or the humidity increased. The housing and base are made of stainless steel, the dial is made of aluminium and the cover is made of robust real glass, which not only gives the device a long service life, but also an elegant design. The hygro-thermometer comes with detailed operating instructions.

We really liked the MAVORI hygro-thermometer when we tested it. It is an analogue device for measuring humidity and temperature. As with all analogue humidity measuring devices, it may be necessary to readjust the display of this hygrometer from time to time. For this purpose, there is a calibration screw in the centre hole on the back.
If no reliable reference values are available for the adjustment, the calibration can be carried out using the so-called towel method and/or the salt method. It is also possible to have a reference device sent to you by the company.
The hygro-thermometer has a diameter of 12.6 cm and a depth of 1.7 cm.
The device has a high-quality finish and a large, easy-to-read display.
The stand supplied can be easily slid into the guide provided. It can (visually) be placed anywhere or hung on the wallwithout hesitation. The hygro-thermometer makes a very high-quality impression, it is made entirely of metal and glass without plastic.
The hygro-thermometer is suitable for indoor use, e.g. in the bathroom for monitoring humidity or in the office if the air in the room is too dry.
All in all, a simple but effective and environmentally friendly hygro-thermometer, as it does not require batteries.
Price/performance ratio
and ratings from consumers
ℹ️ Finally, we look at how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also analyse consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.
| Criterion | Remark | Score achieved* |
|---|---|---|
| Price / performance ratio | Appropriate | 90 points |
| Rating cut | 4.5 out of 5.0 on Amazon | 75 points |
| Total | 83 points |

On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.5 stars. The hygro-thermometer is often criticised for having too large deviations. Many customers like the elegant and timeless design as well as the good measurement results. We were able to confirm these points in our practical test, but in our case there were no major measurement inaccuracies.
Prices of up to €94 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €15.90. The hygro-thermometer from MAVORI is currently in the lower price segment with a price of € 25.90. The price ratio is reasonable for the quality and scope of services offered.
