Been watching this for a few days, was sitting on $449, which I already thought was a great deal and went very close to buying, today it's down to $364. Then on top of that there's the $100 Philips Father's Day cash back promotion. We have Prime but I think there's a free delivery within 4-5 days for non-Prime or $5.99 (or free with a Prime trial) expedited. I think there's 7% from cash rewards too.

The link above seems to bring up a third party seller initially that is slightly cheaper at $358. That one has a longer delivery time-frame and I don't know how much shipping is. But from there, you can access the Amazon-sold one.

These have great reviews and highly rated by Choice.

    How does this compare to the xiaomi 3H? Cost to performance ratio and filter replacement cost

    • fufufu on 28/07/2022 - 10:29

      Would like to know this also

    • redrich2000 on 28/07/2022 - 10:39

      According to Choice, annual replacement cost is $40 for the Philips, $39 for the Xiaomi.
      Performance-wise, Choice rates then very close, the Philips slightly ahead on dust and organic compounds and quieter.

        Thanks! Bought! That's all the justification I need for my wife.

        She requested for air purifier and I did the research and proposed xiaomi 3h and she approved it.

        How do you get the annual replacement cost to $40 when a filter replacement is $120?

        • kulprit on 28/07/2022 - 10:46

          Replace once every 3 years?

        • godzilla123 on 28/07/2022 - 10:46

          Replace after 3 years?

        • redrich2000 on 28/07/2022 - 10:46

          Choice says "Estimated cost per year for replacing the filters, based on the manufacturer recommendation and assuming the best case for how long the filter is claimed to last."

          I wondered about this too. Philips must claim filters last three years. Philips do say you can vacuum the filter periodically, maybe that extends the life?

          • azngamer on 28/07/2022 - 11:00

            @redrich2000: Well, when Google-d it said filter will last 6M-18M. So that's why I'm bit confused on the $40/year.

            Will research later. Thanks for sharing the deal OP.

      Not sure why this deal is so popular — the Xiaomi 3H seems to me the superior choice, especially if you buy it on sale at around $200. Xiaomi HEPA filter replacements cost around $40 or less when on sale, and filters do last a while.

      Putting all the usual marketing BS aside, the only thing that matters when it comes to air purifiers is the user interface and automation features, and CADR (clean air delivery rate) which determines how many machines you need to cover a certain area of your home. If you were motivated to, you could even build your own very effective DIY air purifier with a HEPA filter and a fan assembly.

      There's no such thing as an air purifier that's "cleaner" or "quieter" than another — if it's running quietly, it's not doing its job since HEPA filters need air to be pushed through them in order to filter nasty particles. You gotta manually turn up the fan speed to either medium or max (whatever you can tolerate), which means the air purifier will be relatively noisy, but that's how you know it's working effectively.

      Even the fancy new bigger Xiaomi 4 Pro air purifiers are nothing special, they're just trying to sell you bigger and more expensive filters (though these bigger machines do cover a larger area of your home). The Xiaomi 3H is the sweet spot when it comes to value.

      I run my Xiaomi 3H for about 3 hours a day and haven't changed the filter since I first got it 10 months ago, and the filter remaining status reads 76%, so I should be good for a while.

      In terms of power usage, the Xiaomi 3H is very efficient (I'm not sure if it uses a DC motor?), drawing 18W of continuous power at level II fan speed (medium), and 28W at level III (not quite max, but close to it). If you manually configure the fan speed via the Mi Home app, you can get the fan to spin even faster than level III for slightly more power still, when you really need to clean that air fast. It'll be loud, so there's zero chance you're going to hold a normal conversation in a room at the higher fan speeds, but that's the idea.

          But not when chinese company like Lenovo gives away free money!!! This is a country of hypocrital US arse licking hicks whose "values" are just what people in US tell us to value and can be instantly bought out when there is free cash. Lenovo was way too generous with $100 giveaway. Aussies will lower pants for much less than even half of that.

  • meowsers on 28/07/2022 - 10:26

    Thanks for this. A screaming deal with cashback.

  • bargainhunter774 on 28/07/2022 - 10:32

    Currently reading through the terms and conditions of the cashback, but does anyone know if it can be claimed multiple times? i.e. if I claim it for an air fryer, can I also claim it for the air purifier? I'll report back if I find the relevant clause myself…

      Back with the answer as promised:

      Up to a total of 5 Claims in the Cash Back Offer are permitted per

      a) Only 1 Claim permitted for each Eligible Philips Product purchased;
      and
      b) A separate Online Claim Form for each product purchased must be

    How much is the replacement filter?

    • redrich2000 on 28/07/2022 - 10:42

      $139 RRP, Amazon has them $120 at the moment.

        Have you got a link? Having trouble finding it

  • Minty2511 on 28/07/2022 - 10:49

    Does anyone know if Amazon do a price guarantee type thing? Literally bought this yesterday for $449 and it just turned up. Dammit!
    And if so, does anyone know how to contact Amazon? TIA

    • Vombatidae on 28/07/2022 - 10:50

      You have to refund and return the old one and buy it again at the new price. This is advice from an Amazon rep when I asked about the same predicament

      • Minty2511 on 28/07/2022 - 10:53

        Thank you. I know this sounds silly, but I’m not very confident with posting things etc. In your opinion is the Amazon return process easy enough and worth it for approx the approx $80 saving?

        • butas on 28/07/2022 - 10:56
          +1

          Amazon return process is straight forward. Easy enough and definitely worth saving the $80

        • FreeAFBoi on 28/07/2022 - 11:06

          Yes, they give you a return label and you can drop it off to a local parcel point location or auspost. Very simple and straightforward. Refund is processed usually within a day of it arriving at the return location (in my experience).

          Edit: for return reason put something like doesn't work so they don't charge you the return shipping fee

          • Minty2511 on 28/07/2022 - 13:23

            @FreeAFBoi: Thank you. Just to confirm, I still select reason for return as ‘it doesn’t work’ - even though the box hasn’t been opened?
            There’s an option which says reason ‘better price available’ but I can’t see where it says postage costs etc for any of the selected reasons.
            Sorry to be such a noob - but I really appreciate the assistance!

        • Luvstospooj on 28/07/2022 - 11:19

          Amazon return is probably the easiest of the retailers. On a few of my returns, I had the refund processed as soon as Auspost scanned the return label

          • muckingfuppet on 28/07/2022 - 13:03

            @Luvstospooj: I think there are articles where Amazon don't actually check for the product. People have returned empty boxes as a scam hahaha.

    • butas on 28/07/2022 - 10:53

      They used to do a price guarantee but from what I hear that's changed. I would just return it and select a reason that won't charge you a return shipping fee.

  • deeeno on 28/07/2022 - 10:51

    • SevenSmurfs on 28/07/2022 - 10:57

      Supposed to help with allergies, though not sure if it actually does in my own case and I have 3 Xiaomi purifiers around the house!

    • ozbargainhunter400 on 28/07/2022 - 11:00

      There's still dust particles in the house from: Outdoors, dead skin (especially in the bedroom), aerosols when cooking, sediment kicked up when cleaning.

      I find I sleep better with one in my bedroom (that's on quiet/night mode) and wake up with a clearer mind. Did an A/B test many years ago and I was sold on it.

      I have 2 (Xiaomi v2 and v3), one in my bedroom and the v3 in family room near the kitchen. I would recommend it but of course there is some slight maintenance each year (replace filter / vacuum it) otherwise I just leave it in the background.

    • aec on 28/07/2022 - 11:02

      Bushfire season is coming. If we have same level of heat the northern hemisphere is currently suffering from, the bushfire in the coming summer could be fierce.

    • Reggyscum on 28/07/2022 - 11:10

      They are useful for taking out a lot of particulates in the air - eg. floating dust, pollen, dander, general allergens, weird smells. It can make a room have a really "fresh" smell. Almost like a new car. As long as you contain the purifier in a closed room.

      I've never really noticed any practical reduction in general "dust" accumulation that collects on top of furniture but that's just my experience.

    • Lancerx on 28/07/2022 - 11:23

      It's bit of "you have it, I must have it too" scenario I would say.

  • trawg on 28/07/2022 - 11:00

      I don't think it is, I ordered one already, but there's an "Other Sellers" section below your add to cart button and the AmazonAU seller is still there. The Philips Store just undercut Amazon by $5.70 but it doesn't show the cashback drop down.

      • MrMaxwell on 28/07/2022 - 11:07

        Still available. You have to select the 'other sellers' option to choose the Amazon-sold item.

    I previously bought a phillips air purfier and within 2 years found it impossible to buy filters, other than having them shipped from the US. Since then I've had a Xiaomi air purifier which has run perfectly with no problems buying replacement filters

    • fuzor on 28/07/2022 - 11:45

      Wait really? Philips would stop supporting their products after only 2 years? You'd think these filters are a good money maker for them.

      Would you recommend stocking up on these filters now?

  • daredevilboy on 28/07/2022 - 13:54

    Hi all
    Just leaving my experience for anyone considering.

    I have this model - it's mid range. There is a smaller and a bigger option.
    This mid range unit seems to be enough for a relatively not small apartment - 80-90 sqm.

    I haven't changed filter in 2+ years.
    When I open the app it says filter is at 40% remaining. So it still has some use in it before the swap is needed. Not sure if that is calculated in the passage of time or it has any sensor to know how dirty the inner filter is.

    I do need to vacuum the prefilter every once in a while (maybe every 2 weeks). So make sure you have a vacuum that you can use on a round filter. When I vacuum the prefilter there is a lot of fine dust bunnies which is good - better in filter than our lungs.

    I personally don't notice any huge difference with myself but the unit does get flustered when we cook or open the balcony door. To me that reads that it does what it supposed to do - notices the stuff floating in the air and catches it.

    It also has an app. The app just tells you the filter status and the air purity status.

    If you're after an air purifier this one is not bad.

    Harvey Norman Philips 2000i listing mentions this is eligible for a 90 day money back guarantee

    I assume that means a change of mind? I’m keen to try one out, but not sure how beneficial it will be. Especially with windows open with airflow.

    I might call the customer service representative during business hours on (02) 9912 4490. To just check Amazon is eligible and that the guarantee is for change of mind.
    Hopefully Amazon price is still low by Monday, if not, change of mind guarantee expires Dec 31 2022.

    I likely wouldn’t also claim the cash back, until I’m sure I want to keep it.

    Price is down to $385.87 before cash back.
