            @dm02: I would say yes its worth a short ( I only use mine in my bedroom but its helped a tonne )

                @fredblogs: For me I have asthma and my room would get too dusty in the air for me to breathe comfortably.

                I used to live in the mountains and never had an issue but when i got to a single room in the city it got a lot harder to comfortably breathe when relaxing and stuff due to dust and probably pollution.

                I bought the older generation of this device (then upgraded after a couple of years) and it has been a massive help in terms of just cleaning the air, reducing dust and other annoying things (it helps i have found with cigarette smoke that comes in the window or bushfire smoke).

                TLDR: Helps with cigarette smoke, bushfire smoke, reducing bad odors and DUST (in caps because it helps a tonne).

      • Tim Mc on 21/03/2022 - 08:53

        I bought a 3H after the bushfires in 2019/2020 but I've mostly used it for managing hayfever while sleeping at night or working in the home office.

        We still need Claratyne etc to manage hayfever. But the 3H reduces my sneezing fits when there's pollen drifting in from outside a closed window.

        I'm also using it as white noise for my toddler to go sleep. But now I start to drift off when the aircon fan speed is high while driving on a hot day. 😬

        It came in handy the other day when air quality outside was Very Poor 225 µg/m³ PM2.5. It was about 45 µg/m³ PM2.5 inside. 3H helped reduce it to about 3 in a bedroom room.

      • dcash on 21/03/2022 - 09:18

        Very doubtful that you'll notice any difference (aside possibly from a placebo effect). I have family members with dust mite allergy and air purifiers made no discernable difference. Immunotherapy drops made a huge difference.

      There are different settings (Low, Medium, High, Sleep and Auto) so you can adjust it according to noise.

      +2

      It could and should - any purifier able to filter out pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mould etc should help alleviate hay fever. I have 2 cats and the amount of fur/hair/dander it collects just sitting in one place is quite remarkable. Need to vacuum off the filter every 8 weeks or so to keep it running efficiently.

        I haven't bought one yet because I've always wondered HOW these air purifiers can possibly work when your door/windows (to the outside) are OPEN—-I mean, dust, pollen, etc. are continually blowing in throw the open windows, and at a rate that I doubt the air purifier can keep up with. In a closed room—yeah, they would work; but I always like to keep my windows open to get a fresh breeze/fresh air, and keep the temperature down, but I hate that I get exhaust particles, dust, etc. coming in from the open windows.
        Do air purifiers still work in open(-window) rooms? Genuine question.

        • MrOzbargain on 21/03/2022 - 06:19

          If you keep windows open daytime 2-3 times a week for minimum 6 hours a day, it's not for you

        • dealbrry on 21/03/2022 - 07:38

          More useful at times when the window is closed for a long while, or you don’t get good air flow and it’s smoky. Maybe at night for allergies. I sold a different brand air purifier as it wasn’t really useful for me. Bought it during the bushfires, for my situation they’re only useful for events like that.

        • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 10:44

          There's no chance an air purifier can keep up with filtering out pollen and pollutants if you keep your windows open 24/7. You'd need to close your windows (e.g. in the evening) and then run the air purifier on max power.

          Also note that an air purifier can't do anything about pollen/dust/pollutants that have already settled on surfaces in your room. They can only filter stuff that's floating in the air.

          Thanks to everyone who replied. You confirmed for me that these machines make sense only for closed rooms. Strange how the advertisements don't mention this. It does have its uses for people with allergies who are in closed rooms a lot, and it will work during winter too, when I close my windows to keep the cold out. In summer, though, I just rely on cross-ventilation from open windows and fans (air conditioning is expensive), so this won't work well, unless I close up the room every now and then.

      I have had 2 running for 2 years now on night mode in corner of lounge room, before that was bedroom.
      Pro is they move air around the room silently and make it less dusty.
      Hasn't done much for my wifes hayfever, but we are at the end of the first default filter now. Not sure why people need so many filters?

      • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 10:59

        Pro is they move air around the room silently and make it less dusty. Hasn't done much for my wifes hayfever

        FYI, when on auto/silent mode, air purifiers are almost useless. They work by forcing air through a HEPA filter in order to capture particles, so you need to manually run them at full power or near-full power for them to do their job. This means the machine will be very loud, but that's how you know it's working correctly.

        I usually run them at medium power (Level 2, on the Xiaomi 3H) at night, it's not so loud as to be disturbing, and it's a nice kind of white/background noise.

      • lordra on 21/03/2022 - 12:11

        I've bought one to try for the OH's hayfever, so will run it on max and see how much it helps.

      automate it.

    • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 11:02

      Auto modes are almost always 100% useless (due to the cheap sensors used in consumer machines), if you want an air purifier to do its job, you'll want to run it at max power, or near max power. The minimum I would use is the medium power setting, if you really have to due to noise reasons (e.g. you need to sleep, or you're watching TV and can't hear the dialogue otherwise).

      Otherwise just leave it off.

      Having just returned 2 Arovec 'Smart' air purifiers

      I'm curious, why did you return the Arovec machines? Interested, as I was looking at potentially getting one of those.

      • webmonkey on 21/03/2022 - 13:14
        +2

        The Arovecs I bought were really well built, quite compact and quiet in night,1 & 2 speed settings. If they were advertised as just a purifier without the smart features I would have kept them. The problem was the smart feature itself, the automatic fan speed based on air quality just did not work and I ran them constantly for almost a month until my return window.

        I would move them to the kitchen to test while I was cooking or empty out the vacuum next to it and it wouldn't move off the lowest setting even with visible crap floating around it. Both units remained in the blue which indicates good air quality.

        • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 15:07

          The problem was the smart feature itself, the automatic fan speed based on air quality just did not work

          FYI, this is typical for 99% of consumer air purifiers, because of the cheap particulate sensors they use. It costs hundreds of dollars for a good sensor alone, so you won't find them in consumer machines like this.

          A lot of people don't realise this and leave their machines on the auto setting, which means that 99% of the time the machine is not actually filtering anything (which explains why the machine is so "quiet"!).

          You simply have to manually run the air purifier at medium or max speed in order for it to do its job. This is 100% true for the Xiaomi series as well (I own two of the Xiaomi 3H machines which I use regularly).

          • webmonkey on 21/03/2022 - 16:14
            +1

            @deadpoet: Yep didn't realise this until after I had purchased the Arovecs and did some digging, I don't expect the Xioami air sensor to perform perfectly but I have seen some videos of it actually working and adjusting the fan speed.

            With the Arovecs it's the expectations that weren't met, they were advertising this feature and it doesn't work at all with whatever I threw at it. They actually look identical to another purifier that doesn't market itself with a sensor and those are at a lower price point.

    • fredblogs on 21/03/2022 - 11:10

    • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 11:07
      +2

      Yes they are, but you should manually run the air purifier at max power setting, don't leave it on auto mode (as the sensor in almost all consumer machines is cheap and lousy, and doesn't tend to kick in until there's a LOT of particles in the air).

    How does this compare to the Pro 4 that also is usually going around, apart from being a bit bigger and more expensive. Does the 4 have better features or anything?

    • salem on 21/03/2022 - 12:54
      +1

      I think the Pro 4 uses different filters, which don't seem to be on sale as much? This is based on a vague recollection of a comment on a previous deal, so don't take it as gospel, more as something to go research maybe. :)

    • deadpoet on 21/03/2022 - 15:11
      +2

      The Pro 4 is bigger and has a higher CADR (clean air delivery rate), so it's suitable for bigger rooms/more coverage. It also uses bigger, more expensive HEPA filters.

      • May4th on 21/03/2022 - 17:21
        +2

        even for small rooms higher CADR means your air replacement rate is higher so it will get rid of aerosols that linger in the air quicker. if it's for allergies/dust, probably overkill, if it's for covid then the quicker the better. keep in mind the quoted CADR is on max setting which is probably too loud for comfort

    The actual box was empty, just the two white thermocol pieces. The back of the unit, which houses the air filter, did not have a anything there apart from the filter itself.

    What am I missing folks?
