| The Best Air Purifiers For Clean Air In Your Home - Forbes Posted: 25 Jun 2020 11:10 AM PDT With air quality more important than ever these days, finding practical and efficient ways to make sure your home's air is at its best might be a new undertaking. While good ventilation can move some amount of pollutants — pet dander, dust and dust mites, organic compounds and other allergens — outside, the best air purifiers can really help to improve the quality of the air in your home. Air purifiers come in all shapes and sizes, and even work in fundamentally different ways. Most have what's known as a mechanical filter, and are generally very effective at removing pollutants. (If you choose a purifier with a HEPA filter, or high-efficiency particulate air filter, it should remove about 99.96 percent of all airborne particles.) But there are other kinds of air purifiers as well, and it can be challenging to find one that effectively cleans the air, fits your lifestyle, falls within your price range and doesn't look like an outdated radiator.  Amazon When in doubt, it's best to turn to tried-and-true brands and products with excellent user reviews. We've evaluated the following air purifiers by their efficiency (how many germs they claim to suck up), capacity (how much space they can keep clean), appearance (is it aesthetically pleasing?) and price (no explanation needed here). From desktop fans to state-of-the-art machines, here are our picks for the best air purifiers on the market right now. Best Air Purifier For a Large SpaceAlen BreatheSmart Classic Large Room Air Purifier Looking to cover a lot of square footage? Not a problem with the Alen BreatheSmart Classic Large Room Air Purifier. This air purifier cleans up to about 1100 square feet every 30 minutes without making a lot of noise. In fact, Alen claims the technology in the BreatheSmart is twice as quiet as that of its key competitors, even on Turbo speed. The Alen BeatheSmart features a HEPA Pure filter that is certified to capture 99.97 percent of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns. This works in combination with the device's Laser Smart Sensor, which also detects airborne particles down to 0.3 microns, to effectively clean your air of dust, pollen, allergens and dander. It measures about 27 inches high and 18 inches wide, with a control panel on top that includes an air quality indicator light which always reflects the real-time purity of the room's air with an easy-to-read display. And you can choose from among nine different colors and panels to find one to match your home's interior. Best Air Purifier For a BedroomLevoit Air Purifier Compact enough to fit on your desk and designed to filter single rooms up to about 300 square feet, this compact Levoit model is equipped with a HEPA filter able to remove 99.97 percent of dust, pollen, smoke, odor, mold spores and pet dander. It's an excellent inexpensive option that eschews technology like UV and ionization more commonly found in this price range. Instead it features a three-stage filtration system that includes a pre-filter, a HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter. And three fan settings let you control the speed and volume of the purifier. While this air purifier was designed for use in the bedroom (it's fan is ultra quiet and it features an optional soft blue night light with two brightness settings), it's quite portable and can be moved from room to room if needed. Aesthetically, it wouldn't be out of place on your nightstand, with its white or black case and sleek design. And though its capacity is on the smaller size is doesn't have any many features as other air purifiers on this list, it's hard to beat the price. Best Air Purifier For People With Serious AllergiesMolekule Air Purifier This is the priciest air purifier on the list, but for serious allergy-sufferers, it may well be a worthwhile investment. Unlike most other purifiers which have HEPA filters that collect particulates from the air, the Molekule actually removes indoor air pollutants and then destroys them. It does this using a dual-filtration system: first, the pre-filter catches larger pollutants like dander and pollen; then, the nano-filter cleans the air, claiming to eliminate airborne pollutants that are 1,000 times smaller than those the average air purifier can destroy. The materials used to create the Molekule aren't just functional; the design is sleek and elegant, featuring a leather handhold strap and a machined aluminum case. Most Stylish Air PurifierBlueair Blue Pure 211+ If you're looking for a snazzy-looking device that can move large volumes of air, this Blueair model may well be the way to go. It's designed for large rooms and living spaces up to about 540 square feet, and Blueair claims it can filter that space five times an hour. This three-stage air purifier combines mechanical filtration with an electrostatic filter and, to reduce odors, an activated carbon filter. It comes with two washable pre-filters designed for filtering out particles, pet dander, smoke and more. That said, be aware that while Blueair claims the system filters 99 percent of pollutants, the filter isn't HEPA-certified. Visually, Blueair made sure that this purifier doesn't look like an ordinary appliance; it has an interesting two-tone design that splits the device into two contrasting colors — colors which you can change depending upon the filter you install. A single button turns it on, off, and varies the fan speed, but there's no display or status on the device. Best Air Purifier With an Automatic ShutoffHoneywell HPA100 True HEPA Allergen Remover This Honeywell HPA100 might not look like much — it has all the visual appeal of a space heater — but Honeywell no doubt is hoping you'll care more about what it can do. This model is designed for medium-sized rooms — about 155 square feet — and features a true HEPA filter for guaranteed removal of 99.97 percent of airborne particles down to .3 microns. Honeywell says that its fan can filter the air in the room five times an hour. It's one of the configurable air purifiers on this list. The control panel on the top of the unit lets you set up to four different cleaning levels (which affects the fan speed and overall noise level) and has an auto-off timer option so it doesn't run continuously. The panel also indicates when it's time to change the filter, and the whole panel has multiple brightness levels so you can dim it at night or when you don't need to see it. Best Air Purifier For the Whole HouseAustin Air Healthmate Not many air purifiers have the capacity to clean an entire house, but the Austin Air Healthmate can handle up to 1500 square feet — enough to completely cover many homes. This air purifier is built like a tank, with an all-metal frame and shell, mounted on four heavy-duty casters so you can wheel it around as needed. It draws air in on all four sides and is equipped with four sequential filters; a pre-filter for large particulates, a "medium particle filter" for small- to medium-size allergens, such as mold, pollen, and dust mites, followed by an activated carbon filter for trapping odors, and, of course, a HEPA filter. The HEPA filter has an especially long life, only needing to be changed once every five years. Best Air Purifier With LED LightingPARTU Air Purifier The PARTU Air Purifier claims to be the quietest on the market, which might be attractive news for light sleepers or anyone who dislikes a noisy fan. (At its lowest speed, the PARTU creates 25db of noise; this is just above the sound of leaves rustling, which clocks in at 20db, for comparison.) It is built around a four-stage filter that includes a mechanical HEPA filter, activated charcoal for odor removal, and an anion filter which uses ions to trap particles (though Partu claims it generates no ozone). It's also fairly unusual looking; it's a canister with an angled top, where you'll find large graphical controls to operate the filters, fan speed and more. The top also has an LED light wrapped around it; you can use it as a night light or to give the room an accent color. It automatically cycles through seven different colors, or you can choose a single color to glow. Best Air Purifier With Smart CoolingDyson DP04 Air Purifier Dyson has long been known as an innovator in the home cleaning space, though its product line recently evolved beyond vacuums to include technology like purifying fans. The Dyson Pure Cool Fans come in several sizes, though this counter top model is equipped to handle a moderately large room with a HEPA-certified filter system. Dyson engineered this air purifier with features that distinguish it from most other models in its price range. It is a "smart" purifier, for example. A small display on the unit itself reports what kind of pollutants it's actually detecting in real time, and it connects to a smartphone app that can deliver lots of additional information, such as when the filter needs to be changed and the environmental conditions both inside and outside the house. The fan is also configurable in a way you probably won't find anywhere else: Not only can you set the rotational angle, so it can spin around to clean the air in any direction, but you can change how the fan works, providing cooling in warm weather but diverting the air so it doesn't cool in winter. Best Air Purifier For Smart Air MonitoringCoway Airmega 400 Smart Air Purifier Coway's Airmega 400 Smart Air Purifier is a peek at the future of air purification. It can smartly adjust the fan speed when it needs more or less air cleaning power, able even to put itself to sleep when the air is clean and wake itself up when pollutants are detected — it's truly hands-off. It works in conjunction with a mobile app on your phone, where you can control the purifier remotely, check its status, see if filters need to cleaned and find out the air quality. It's equipped with a HEPA filter as well as a cleanable pre-filter and odor-reducing activated carbon filter, and air is drawn in from two sides at once, reducing the need to position it precisely. And it's especially flexible, able to handle spaces as large as 1500 square feet.

| Dyson Pure Cool TP04 review: So much more than a great air purifier - Android Central Posted: 30 Jun 2020 04:17 AM PDT
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central Dyson has proven that it can innovate when it comes to vacuum cleaners, and in recent years the manufacturer branched out into other areas. With air pollution becoming an increasing problem in Asia and other parts of the world, Dyson rolled out its first air purifier back in 2015. Of course, you may be wondering at this point if you actually need an air purifier. Air quality is getting increasingly worse in major cities across the world, and an air purifier is now a necessity in most Asian countries because of high particulate matter. But even if you live in an area that doesn't have particulate pollution, there are a lot of common allergens, pollen, and airborne pathogens that can cause diseases like the flu. Air purifiers have taken on an increased significance in 2020 because of the coronavirus. Like all Dyson products, the first-gen Pure Cool stood out thanks to its minimal styling and innovative features. Air purifiers usually tend to be blocky pieces with a few filters that sit in front of a fan and an outer plastic shell, and as a result, they're not very elegant. That's not the case with the Pure Cool series, with the latest TP04 variant offering a polished design aesthetic that will fit right in with the rest of your decor. The Pure Cool TP04 has a lot to offer: it has a three-layer filtration system with a HEPA and activated carbon filters, a digital LCD readout that gives you real-time details on air quality, and the bladeless fan has been a revelation. At $549 (₹45,999 inDyson's air purifier is one of the costliest options in the market today. So what are you getting here that you won't find with other brands? Let's find out. At a glance Dyson Pure Cool TP04Bottom line: The Dyson Pure Cool TP04 does a fantastic job cleaning PM2.5 and PM10 particulate matter and noxious gases. Unlike other air purifiers, you get an innovative bladeless fan system that provides excellent cooling for medium-sized rooms. The elegant design allows it to blend into most modern houses, and it connects over Wi-Fi to deliver real-time indoor air quality data to your phone. The Good
The Bad
Dyson Pure Cool TP04 What I like
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central I did not think I would say this of an air purifier, but the Dyson Pure Cool TP04 is beautiful. The elegant design with clean lines and the white color scheme just makes the air purifier stand out. I have three air purifiers in my house — a Honeywell Air Touch A5, Mi Air Purifier 2S, and a Philips AC3256 — but the Dyson is in a league of its own in terms of design.
The Pure Cool TP04 has two distinct sections: a base that houses the HEPA and activated carbon filters that clean the air of all pollutants, with a bladeless fan that covers the upper two-thirds of the body. The bladeless fan uses Dyson's innovative air multiplier technology to blast cool air around a room, and it works astonishingly well. The fan delivers powerful airflow, and after using the Pure Cool TP04 for over two weeks, this is my favorite feature on the air purifier. The air purifier has a 360-degree design for the air intake, with two sets of identical filters located at the front and rear halves of the unit. There's the usual activated carbon filter that cleans gases and other common pollutants, and a HEPA filter that scrubs up to 99.95% of particulate matter as small as 0.1 microns.
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central Most HEPA air purifiers available today do a decent job at cleaning pollutants, but by adding a bladeless fan, Dyson has managed to create a unique product here. There are slits on either edge of the tower for pushing air out, and there are ten speeds to choose from. You also get four oscillation levels, with up to 350 degrees of coverage. I found that the auto mode worked reliably enough most of the time, and you'll get decent coverage for most medium-sized rooms by setting the fan speed level to 5.
The fan itself is inaudible at levels 1 and 2, and as you'd imagine, it gets very loud when you increase the level all the way to 10. I don't understand how the tech works here, but what I do know is that it works really well. There's also a diffused mode that provides air purification without cooling. For the most part, the cooling on offer here is more than adequate for most homes. The weather right now where I live is in the high seventies Fahrenheit (24 to 27 degrees Celsius), and the Pure Cool on its own was good enough that I didn't have to use the air conditioner at all. Rounding out the design, there's a digital readout that sits on the base of the unit. You get an LCD panel that gives you a real-time view of the air quality (AQ) in your room, as well as PM2.5, PM10 allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels. Installation is about as straightforward as it gets: all you need to do is remove the filters from their packaging, and attach them to either end of the air purifier's base. You'll get an alert on the LCD when the filters need to be switched out, and during regular use, the filters are touted to last up to seven months. Of course, this won't be the case if you're living in a city that has high particulate matter, but for the most part, you'll only have to change the filters on the Pure Cool once a year.
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central You'll control most of the features on the Pure Cool TP04 via the bundled remote. The remote itself is about half as tall as most phones these days. It has buttons for all the key features: auto mode, setting oscillation, controlling the fan speed, scrolling through the various information panels on the digital readout, switching to purification-only mode, and toggling night mode — where the air purifier switches to the quietest setting and dims the panel. The best part about the remote is that it is magnetic and attaches to the top of the tower. The remote is curved — just like the top portion of the tower — and slots in easily. Another cool feature is that the top and bottom portions of the remote are see-through, and you can make out the IR blaster and the battery housing.
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central Alongside the remote, the Pure Cool TP04 has Wi-Fi connectivity, and you can control it with your phone by using the Dyson Link app. The app itself has a clean interface, and you get to change the fan speed, turn the air purifier on or off, set a timer, toggle night mode, set oscillation, switch to auto mode, and select the purification-only option. You get all the features as the remote, and there's a detailed breakdown of the air quality and indoor pollutant levels in your home throughout the time the air purifier has been active. You get a daily as well as a weekly overview of PM2.5, PM10, VOC, and NO2 levels, with an average score assigned to each pollutant. You also get to see the indoor temperature and humidity levels.
I had the Pure Cool TP04 running throughout the course of the day in the office and at night in the bedroom, and the air purifier did a fantastic job scrubbing the air of all pollutants. The air purifier was particularly handy in the kitchen — cooking releases a lot of particulate matter and odors into the air, and the air purifier took just 15 minutes to scrub all VOCs and pollutants from the room. I underestimated the cleaning prowess of the Pure Cool TP04 given the smaller size of the purification system, but in real-world usage, its performance was on par with air purifiers with significantly bigger filters. In the two weeks, I used the product, the average PM2.5 levels in my home stood at 2 micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m3), PM10 levels at 3 micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m3), and good VOC and NO2 levels. The Pure Cool TP04 is ideal for small to medium-sized rooms, but it also fared well in my living room, which is over 400 sq. ft. Basically, the Pure Cool TP04 is just as great as other air purifiers in this category at scrubbing the air inside your house of all your pollutants. If you're prone to allergens or worried about pollen or particulate matter indoors, the Pure Cool TP04 is a fantastic choice. Dyson Pure Cool TP04 What needs work
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central I have just one issue with the Pure Cool TP04: it doesn't have any onboard controls to change the fan speed or set oscillation. Now, this won't be an issue to most users as the bundled remote is attaches magnetically to the tower, but as someone who's prone to losing remotes, it would have been easier to get a few basic controls on the air purifier itself. Then there's the cost. At $549, the Pure Cool TP04 isn't what you would call affordable. Having used it for over two weeks, I now understand why it costs so much — you're basically getting two products here. I believe the design and features on offer justify the pricing, but if you want a more basic option with just air purification, there are a decent number of alternatives around. Dyson Pure Cool TP04 Alternatives
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central Dyson's Pure Cool TP04 is a unique product in that you won't find other air purifiers that also double up as a fan. That said, if you need a no-frills air purifier that's designed for large rooms, the $217 Honeywell HPA300 is a great choice. It has three-layer filtration with a HEPA filter, three cleaning modes, and easy-to-use onboard controls. Coway's $200 AP-1512HH Mighty is also a good option, with this particular air purifier offering a four-layer filtration system with a unique ionizing feature and eco mode. Dyson Pure Cool TP04 Should you buy it?
 Source: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central Who it's for
Who it isn't for
At the end of the day, the Dyson Pure Cool TP04 stands tall (literally) over other air purifiers. It is unique in that it scrubs the air while doubling up as a fan, and there really isn't anything else in the market that can do both.
The bladeless fan on its own is fantastic, and the powerful airflow is more than adequate for medium-sized rooms. It runs quietly most of the time, and with a 350-degree oscillation, it will cover the entire room. As for air purification, the Pure Cool TP04 is just as great as other products in this category, with the HEPA and activated carbon filters making sure the air purifier scrubs all pollutants from a room. Combine that with an elegant design, a digital LCD panel that gives you real-time air quality info, a great remote that attaches magnetically to the unit, and the ability to connect to your phone over Wi-Fi, and you get one of the best air purifiers in the market today.
If you want an air purifier that delivers clean air and looks good while doing it, the Dyson Pure Cool TP04 is the obvious choice. Clean air everywhere Dyson Pure Cool TP04A truly outstanding air purifier The Dyson Pure Cool TP04 does a fantastic job cleaning PM2.5 and PM10 particulate matter and noxious gases.

| Posted: 30 Jun 2020 05:00 AM PDT  ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., June 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA has launched the LG PuriCare™ Mini – the company's first personal air purifier designed to deliver cleaner, fresher air to users wherever they go. From the bedroom, dorm room or workspace to the car, train, plane or hotel room, the compact portable purifier can remove 99% ultra-fine dust and reduces allergens and irritants that can be harmful to breathe.1 PuriCare Mini is powerful enough to deliver up to eight hours2 of clean, quiet air flow and compact enough to take anywhere with a streamlined design that is as light as a water bottle at just 1.2 pounds. The new LG PuriCare Mini adapts LG's advanced air purification technology (similar to the CERTIFIED asthma & allergy friendly® LG PuriCare 360º room air purifier) to a smaller, portable package that's whisper quiet at 30dB, making it easy to take anywhere without disturbing others. Its four-color LED smart display shows air quality in real-time, and Bluetooth control makes monitoring conditions and performance simple. Complete with a convenient leather wrist strap, LG PuriCare Mini air purifiers (models AP151MBA1 and AP15MWA1) are available in smooth black and fresh white finishes at a suggested price of $199. "More than ever, consumers want peace of mind when it comes to the air they breathe," said Brandt Varner, vice president of product management for home appliances at LG Electronics USA. "Perfect for your bedside table, work spaces and college dorm rooms and easy to take along when you travel, these new personal air purifiers offer the advanced capabilities and benefits of LG's PuriCare technology in a portable, budget-friendly package." According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Americans, on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of some pollutants are often two to five times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.3 LG PuriCare Mini is certified by the British Allergy Foundation (BAF) for its air-cleansing and allergen-removing capabilities and tested by Intertek to clear most particulates in a personal space of 8 cubic meters (or 283 cubic feet) in just over 2.5 hours.4 LG's new personal air purifier uses a PM1.0 sensor to first detect ultra-fine particles and intuitively displays the air quality with a four-color LED smart display. The LED light turns green when air is at its cleanest and red at its most-polluted levels. Once air quality is determined, the dual inverter motor draws air through the filter at the appropriate rate. Purified air is distributed by powerful Twin Tornado dual fans to disperse clean air effectively. LG PuriCare Mini's durable filter (model AAFMH01; $9.99) and lasts up to 2,000 hours, or six months if used 12 hours a day. With Bluetooth, users can monitor the condition of the filter, check battery status and control their LG PuriCare Mini using their smartphone or tablet. Users also can benefit from convenient control functionalities directly on the device, including fan intensity, filter status, and real-time air quality conditions. Recharging the battery is simple with a USB cable, even while in use. For more information on LG PuriCare Mini and LG's other indoor air care solutions, visit www.lg.com/us/air-care.
