Product Information

The Braun Scan & Clean BFD104BE air purifier has an automatic mode, which adjusts the filtration level according to the air quality in the room. Furthermore, it has a silent mode, which keeps the device running quietly for a more peaceful and uninterrupted environment. The unit also includes a timer function, where it can be set to operate for four or eight hours, before automatically turning off. Air quality sensor with colour-coded indicator monitors particle levels in the air and visually displays the air quality in real time The Beko ATP6100I Air Purifieris a no-nonsense air purifier that's very straightforward to use. During testing, the feature that stood out most is the auto adjust, which automatically brings the power level up or down depending on the air quality reading in the room at that moment. Despite its relatively affordable price point, this model offers a pre-filter to capture large particles such as dust, lint, fibers, hair, and pet fur, a HEPA filter that traps fine dust, smoke particles, and allergens such as pollen and pet dander, and a carbon filter that works to neutralise smoke, fumes, VOCs, and household odours such as cooking smells and pet odours.

Naturally, air purifiers with a higher CADR, intended for use in larger areas, will have a higher power consumption than air purifiers for smaller areas. For this reason, the power consumption should always be compared to the CADR performance of the unit. A common way to compare the power consumption of different air purifiers is to look at or calculate the CADR/Watt measurement. The higher CADR/W, the better the efficiency'. Noise levels Yes, dust and pollen are some of the largest particles likely to be in the air, so most air purifiers will manage to capture and filter out a good amount of dust particulate from the air. Do air purifiers remove smells?A powerful air purifier that's designed to fix air quality in larger spaces, the Philips Series 3000i Connected air purifier promises to remove impurities in areas up to 104m2. If you're using it in a smaller room, then that translates to super-fast results, with the unit able to purify the air in a room of 20m2 in less than 6 minutes, thanks to an impressive CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) of 520 m3/hr.

The irony of an air purifier is that whilst they may help to remove air pollution from our personal environments, the plastics and other manmade materials used in their manufacture potentially contribute to overall environmental air pollution. briiv aims to reduce this problem by creating an air purifier with a difference.Dust pre-filter – think of air filtration as sifting sand on a beach. You want to remove the large pebbles first with a big sieve before using a finer one. Otherwise, the fine filter gets clogged up. The Braun Scan & Clean BFD104BE is an air purifier that is specifically designed for smaller spaces such as a bedroom or home office. This air purifier is able to filter out impurities from the air that may affect the health and wellbeing of individuals. The device boasts an efficient HEPA filter that effectively captures particles such as dust, pollen, and smoke in the air. It also features an activated carbon filter which reduces bad odours.

According to the brand, the body of the briiv air filter unit is made 'completely from bioplastics derived from Elephant Grass with a bespoke and toughened recyclable glass display zone'. This zero plastic air purifier also utilises natural filters which biodegrade when disposed of, as opposed to the more common HEPA filters which briiv says 'are made out of fibreglass and other microplastics' and can therefore contaminate the environment.
