  • Good price.
    I have one. Had for a while. Paid far more than $600!

      Good price.
      I have one. Had for a while. Paid far more than $600!

      I thought this purifier is quite new.

      • the cooler only version was out around Easter

        the heat+cool+filter is relatively new (3 months or so)

        • That is why I don't understand why he said "Had for a while"

        • @superforever:

          3 months is a while. I didn't just buy it last week.

        • @psy:

          Fair enough, how is it? Can you really feel the difference?

        • +1

          @superforever:

          I find it quite good at "clearing" up the air of cooking smells etc. I have it set up to turn on about the same time I arrive home everyday and run for a few hours.

          As a small heater, the heating function is excellent. The fan (cooling) is "OK". It wont replace an air conditioner, but is probably just as good, if not better than a pedestal fan. As mentioned earlier, at higher speeds (goes from 1-10) it can be quite noisy.
          Auto mode will have the purifier turn on/off as required, and regulate fan speed. "ON" overrides all of that and lets you manage the fan speed.

          If left on at the wall (and powered off) it will continually sample your air quality and temperature and graph it for you on the app.

          You can angle the whole unit on the base to direct it upwards and from the app (or remote control) the air beam can be widened so it's less focused, and oscillation turned on/off.

          I had no end of trouble trying to set the device up using my android phone. Lots of others having similar issues. Dyson say Disable 5G etc and try again. I never got it to work, and resorted to using an iPhone. Worked first go on that.The android app was also broken. It consistently showed the wrong time on the graph. I reported the issue via Google Play and was told to email them - I got a response to tell me that if I went through the app and set the Timezone, it would be correct. They'd obviously not read my original email! Anyway, they've updated the app and the times are now correct.

    How long does the filter last and the cost of a replacement?

    • About 18 months on general use and $100 to replace.

      • That's quite a bit longer than most that I've looked at. Seems savings from the filter could end up offsetting the initial outlay. Though, I wonder about the filtering if it lasts so long.

        • That is usually how Dyson works with their products with filters. Yes, initial start up cost is higher than some of their competitors but the ongoing cost is minimal compared to those cheaper ones when you take other things into consideration such as power usage, filters, bags (for those that have one), etc.

          It just all depends on the consumer which one is better for them at their current situation as not everyone can decide for long term gain straight away due budget and other deciding factors.

    • +2

      4300 hours of use. It will tell you when it's time to change either through the app or from them unit itself.

    Temperature Settings: 1 C - 37 C

    I doubt this purifier will cool any room down to 1 C without a built in compressor.

    • Temperature Settings: 1 C - 37 C

      Only a settings …. lol

    • No, that temperature gauge is for the heating aspect of the product. I know it is rare for Australia to be but other countries can reach below 0 C and you would have to slowly get the room to over 0 first before increasing to warmer temperatures to avoid shock temperature change to the body, yes everyone reacts differently to temperatures but that one of the reasons for it.

      • I'm not sure where you heard that from, but I'm pretty sure that's not a thing.

        Consider a heated building in one of those cold countries. Let's say it's a shopping centre. Even if we assume that it's been gradually heated, there are people entering the building from outside who haven't had the chance to be slowly-warmed-up-or-whatever. They all seem to be doing fine. In fact, reaching a particularly warm building is something like a godsend in that weather.

        *Source - visited Ohio and Canada in the winter. Did not see people clustered around the entrance of buildings trying to warm up just slowly enough so that they didn't do into shock.

        • Yeah like I said everyone is different but like in a general use, I am a bad explainer but like no matter what country someone is (and granted the situation I am trying to explain is like beyond extreme and very rare case) no one is designed to withstand a huge change from say -20 to 1 C if any machine could change the temperature of a room in that condition so quick. Again very extreme and unlikely situation and not the greatest example of use but yeah at the same time this product just allows you to control the temperature it is heating up down to the degree celsius.

        • @cortex21: I think I know what you mean, imagine someone in some really cold part of the world and if their hands are frozen you wouldn't want to rinse them with hot water, it's best to rub their hands with snow or something first.

        • @citybargainhunter: Ah yes thank you, pretty much that, and far easier explanation haha and at the same time if say for whatever personal reason if a user wanted the room temperature to go from -3 C to just say exactly 4 C for whatever reason, they have a more controlled setting than those heaters which temperatures go by intervals of say 5 C.

  • -2

    Note that dyson do not give any spec on how fast this purifies the air. This design doesn't make sense as an air purifier since most of the air that it blows is the multiplied unpurified air which doesn't pass through the filter.

    • -1

      It produces 280L of air on max setting if that helps. No purifying device can really give a 100% accurate answer on how fast it can do a room anyways as there are so many variables to consider.

      Also, they wouldn't release it after thousands of testing if it did not release purified air even after multiplied.

      • 280l of air in total. Only 17.5l is purified since the airflow produced by the motor is multiplied by 16 from the air surrounding the body. In other words 94% of the airflow produced isn't purified. That is pretty poor. All competitors specify their clean air delivery purification rate. Dyson do not. Why would they not specify this? My guess ss that their product isnt very good at purifying.

        • Sorry, that is meant to be 280L per second. I am not too sure exactly what you mean by the purification rate. Do you mean the % level, as on the website it says automatically captures 99.95% or something else?

          As I am trying to look at the other products mentioned on these comments to see if they have it listed but unless I missed it they don't say either just the % removal level.

        • +1

          @cortex21: This product is much slower, hence less effective, at purifying the air than its competitors. Sure the filter captures 99.95% of unwanted airborn particles, but the airflow through the filter isn't very high. The dyson fan works by drawing air in from the base and and inducing much more airflow from the back of the fan. Only the air through the base is purified. Dyson claim that the air induced from the back of the fan is 16 times more than that that is drawn through the base. Therefore only 1/16 of the 280L per second if airflow is actually purified. That is really poor for an air purifier at this price level.

        • @lowlifesphere: That's a fair enough overview review, each to their own really. Everyone has their personal preference of products/brands/etc and what they can do or produce, I agree that Dyson isn't perfect either despite selling their products at work.
          Like (whether you believe it or not) I have had a customer who I didn't approach or serve and she wasn't even in the market for a purifier as she already had one, she told me she walked past one that was on, she felt the air quality difference as she has had other purifiers but didn't work for her as she's highly sensitive to allergens, etc and bought one. Again not everyone will agree on the same products but yeah each to their own.

          Not everything on paper is an indication of how good a product is. Just like how Watts alone isn't a good indication of how strong or how good a vacuum is but yeah. I am sure they will improve it on the next model in the range, they always make sure they can do things better and improved other the previous one, they just don't sit on their morals once they release a product.

  • With so little information on their website won't convince me to buy one.

    http://www.dyson.com.au/fans-and-heaters/fan-heaters.aspx?_g…

    I might buy the Sharp for $480.

  • didnt realise we need an air purifer in australia. may get the one from xiaomi.

    • Haha that's actually half decent logic considering they're made for China.
      EDIT: The other half is you being a cheapskate Ozbargainer. ;)

  • A lot cheaper than the one from Amway but the Amway one can do the whole room.

  • is the amex cashback still available? thinking to pay by two amex cards and get $200 off from Harvey Norman

    • +1

      You can't enrol any more, but if you have already enrolled you have until the end of the year.

  • Does anyone know the recommended (maximum) room size for using this unit?

    • It can do a living room size room. Obviously just like any purifying machine, the larger the room the longer it will take but can still purify the room.

  • I decided to buy the Daikin streamer technology air purifier with five-stages of filtration system for a bit over $500.

    • I am wondering how can Amway sell their air purifier for over $2,600.

      • air purifier for over $2,600.

        That's a hospital grade.

        • May be but the Daikin one looks very similar.

      • hahaha because it's "Certified by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers"

  • Does this works better than a normal fan in a room without an aircon to cool a room?

    • +2

      A lot people tested that at the department store and found that very good but they didn't realise that the department store have aircon …. lol ..

    • Just be cautious. It's quite noisy at higher speeds.

    • -2

      Yes, it does, just do not expect aircon temperatures.

      The air it releases is just cleaner and a few degrees cooler than the room it is in compared to a blade fan which just pushes whatever air is in the room.

      • it is not a few degrees cooler. If anything it would be marginally higher in temperature due to heat emanating from the motor. The cooling effect is the same as youd get from a regular fan, that cold feeling you get with airflow falling on your perspiring skin.

        • Yes, I know what you mean, but this is just from testing on a personal experience between a normal fan and the Dyson fan in the same room, same conditions, the few degrees cooler is based on how I felt between the two. That is just me, but I do ask other customers if they see the difference too, they along with myself agree it isn't a huge drastic difference but they agree the Dyson gives out a cooler air flow over a blade fan does.

          Again, the exact temperature between the two is not 100% accurate but they do see it is a little bit cooler than what a blade fan does, not saying they are perfect either I am just saying the differences and whether the two price points range is justifiable is based on each individual consumer and how they see things.

        • @cortex21: You should be talking about the feeling of the air on your skin, not temperature. Neither dyson fans or conventional fans aim to reduce the temperature.

    • +1

      No. Dyson admit that the main technical advantage to their bladeless fans over conventional fans is that the airflow produced by their fans is 'smoother'.

    • +1

      Don't get fooled by it's name. Despite its saying hot+cool, it doesn't cool the temperature.
      In "cool" mode, it act as a normal dyson fan.

      • +1

        Yes, it's a sodding fan people. just a glorified fan heater. I have one of the early model and it's waaaaay overpriced and not that good.

        If you want to filter air and you have a split system air con just get air filter material and lay it over the inlet (on top). Works fantastically and really cheap.

  • I want one now and missed out ;_;
