I'm using this filter in a small home library which also features a cat and a litter box. Books, cats, and cat litter are three of the dustiest propositions known to science. I needed someting to keep the dust under control and make the air healthier to breathe for me and the cat. Nothing is going to keep the dust away, but I have definitely noticed a decline in the frequency that the shelves need dusting. I keep it running on low most of the time and it's not audible at that level. The high setting isn't silent but it's not obnoxious and I can read or sleep with it on high. I have had to discourage the cat from using the cover as a scratching post, but we're getting another cover just in case.

I love the slim profile of the filter, arriving folded in half. I also like the limited amount of plastic trays part of each filter. With another brand of air purifier that I own, each filter is in a chunky plastic frame. The two tabs on this filter make it convenient to pull off. The only downside of this filter is that I wish it was a true HEPA air filter.

Between home, office & second home I have 7 Blue Air filters. Submitted a request on June 9th for help after being on hold two times in excess of 15 minutes. I did the trouble shooting as per the online help. My daughter owns a Sharp and had no trouble getting help.... Guess I invested in the wrong brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I generally like the air cleaner and the filter replacement is easy. I find the “buttons” on the top to be a challenge. There’s no real button to press. Or if you press the power icon there’s no sense that you’re pressing anything. Recently, all 3 red lights displayed and the filter had recently been changed. I ordered a new one. Unfortunately, the old one was perfectly fine but the lights are still on and I have yet to figure out how to reset. Why isn’t there a simple filter reset button? The air cleaner continues to work well but it’s frustrating that I can’t get the lights to go off.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to use, clearly effective, no messy change out. Love this air purifier and the simple to use filters! It’s so effective and yet very easy to hide. The settings provide good white noise in addition to fresher air. My bedroom is over a crawl space in an antique house - I could not live without this!
