Looking for a decent portable nebulizer

I have purchased at least a dozen nebulixers over the past years and including a Pari Trek and several mesh-type made in China. I now have 2 Sunset mesh nebulizers that I alternate. They are silent, compact and only slightly more expensive than the basic Chinese nebulizers with funny names. Those usually only work a short time before dying. Many cannot handle 7% saline. I love the reliable Sunset portable nebulizer. available from many medical supply houses. Here's one. https://hartmedical.org/product/sunset-portable-mesh-nebulizer.

That is a scary nebulizer, telling you to use tap water only and 1/4 strength vinegar for cleaning. Neither of these will kill NTM or remove biofilm that harbors it from the nebulizer. I'm not sure how many other infectious germs 1/4 strength vinegar kills.

Medpro. Was like $80 and works great.
