Apparently Which.co.uk says this one is a good one, looks like they just did a round up if anyone has a subscription: - https://www.currys.co.uk/products/b...Kelkoo~Comparison Engine~74988~Kelkoo(UK).com
£149

My young nephew needs an inhaler and they are not sure of the cause exactly, I presume this kind of product would help

Argh. Now this thread has me looking for a purifier for my small place!

Edit: Nubbins! I’ve gone and ordered a Levoit 300s for my place now. Due tomorrow!

Remember the app probably will not work read comments someone there is going to send it back that i know
Blue Pure 411 is a bit costly i would stick with a true hepa filter
The hoover is great if you do not need the app features

How much does an air purifier cost to run a year? Electricity + maintenance/filters.

And me.... Bedroom has a visible layer of dust the day after vacuuming everything so it'll be a good test. If it fails I'll return it.

That depends very much on your circumstances. A flat above a bus garage will have very different demand to a 6 bedroom mansion in the Cotswolds.

We have one due to having dogs and found it has reduced our allergys, this is a week's worth so it must do something! Just kept in the corner whirring away. The filters come out disgusting so this is the rubbish we breathe :eek:

Kainz · 29 Apr 2022 at 17:14

Took delivery of a second Levoit 300S earlier in the week so we could keep one in the bedroom and one in the lounge.

I’m going to have a peek at the filter on my two week or so old machine tomorrow methinks. I’m curious, though our place isn’t dusty just yet. Construction nearby later in the year will change that.

Not only have I been sleeping horribly well but my wife has overslept two days in a row too.

Don’t forget to register your machines folks!

That's a lot of dust for 1 week.

Steven Rimmington · 29 Apr 2022 at 17:24

It's probably the same size as an portable air conditioner unit, it's got 3 120mm fans so I guess it just picks up a lot of the dust. One bonus is the amount of dusting is drastically reduced. Probably living in a major city does not help!

And I'm now looking for an air purifier!

The Leviot 300 looks tempting, but is this any better? Can be had for £105 from tge warehouse.

Check this out at Amazon
Philips AC0820/30 Series 800 Compact Air Purifier with Real Time Air Quality Feedback, Anti-Allergen, Reduces Odours and Gases, HEPA https://smile.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TQ...n_i_ANCSGGB28KEGSDQ8AJHY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Actually the 300S is more tempting with the colour indicators and voice control. I wonder if you can teach it to come on when it hears or smells a fart....

Does the app work well for you? Reviews mention lots of connectivity issues and bugs but wondering if they might be fixed now.

Hiya, not a single issue so far - in and out of the house as sometimes I switch them on when I'm on the way home. I like my apps clean and straight to the point and this does that. The app seems to be able to control devices from Etekcity (smart plugs, fitness devices), Valceno (smart led strips, bulbs), Cosori (smart air fryers). It isn't one bit cluttered on iOS.

It loads fast, and my only annoyance is a small splash screen from time to time during a fresh load. I'm just nitpicking on that.

Also no issues with the app with my 300S. Fantastic bit of kit that's definitely aided my sleeping patterns
