The unit is constructed from quality materials and is pleasing to look at. It comes well packaged with comprehensive instructions on set-up, use and, via the App. connecting to your wifi for remote control.
The first thing to say is that it’s much larger and more powerful than many of its contemporaries, so when making your comparisons be careful to check that you are comparing like for like. I bought the unit to replace one I already had and had no idea the difference in size and motor power. At the end of the day you are paying for air filtration power, which is what this machine comprehensively delivers.
Setting it up is simple. The instructions are clear and concise. Adding the App. for remote control was easy once I had found it on the App Store, which I found problematic. It would help if the App’s logo was printed on the leaflet. In the end I used the QR code which took me straight to it. Installation and set-up was again simplicity itself. Being two floors up from our router and the opposite side of the house I did wonder if it would work, but it connected just fine.
The App provides great flexibility. You can programme the unit to come on when you want, at the speed setting that you want, from anywhere that you can connect your smart phone to wifi. There is also manual operation of all the functions through the App. and a link to purchase a new filter when the time comes. The machine can also be operated using the touch controls on the top of the unit.
There are four speed setting plus auto and sleep settings controlling motor and hence air filtration speed. At Sleep setting it is virtually inaudible whilst turbo is the other end of the scale, and noisy. However the air flow on turbo is of storm proportions and epic. On automatic the machine decides the speed according to the air quality which is a nice feature. Another clever feature is that the machine also tells you the amount of filtration remaining on the filter and when it’s time for a new one.
The machine filters air using a HEPA filter, so down to minute particles; pollen, dust etc, are removed, so it helps those with allergies like hay fever, such as myself, get a good nights sleep without sneezing or a blocked up nose. In this respect I’ve found them to be effective and in the sleep setting the sound of the motor isn’t intrusive.
To sum up, the unit is very well made using quality materials. It is easy to keep clean with smooth surfaces (even where the controls are) and the wifi connection is an added bonus which adds to flexibility and overall ease of use. I was impressed with the device, having used a smaller competitor for about a year and although a premium price, thought it good value for money.
