Blueair Blue Pure 211+ Auto - $367.99 + other Classic series air purifiers/fans on sale

Have these in the house. Do an amazing job but be warned, your body will be conditioned into believing all air quality is good. Except the minute you step outside the house; wham can smell the pollution and allergies kick in. Ah, oh well, at least we have great air at home. Pair with Airthings radon detector for ultimate air quality monitoring / filtering setup.

Never leave your house. Problem solved.

tempted to get one of the dust magnet series as i'm tired of seeing dust everywhere. Anyone has experience with this?

Have 2x 211+ Autos from the January sale (one in the living room, one in the basement). So far I've been happy with it. The auto mode stays on the lowest speed unless it detects particles (in my case cooking, cleaning sprays or essential oils trigger it). I also have a Airthings View to monitor the PM 2.5 levels and they coincide with each other. I do wish that it had bluetooth or wifi connectivity like some of the higher end models, it would be great to have HomeKit support. My issues have been minor but include, VERY slow customer service by email, very slow shipping of the units, slight carbon smell that seems to be getting better, and lack of choice for buying filters (Home Depot/Amazon seems to be $120 but direct from Blueair $90). Filter prices have gone up since COVID. The jury is still out on any negative health concerns from ionizing (very controversial). If you do a HEPA with another manufacture (no ionizing) it'll be louder and the filter is more dense and needs more airflow. I'm excited to see what the filter looks like in 6 months and how it helps with seasonal allergies. Another option is using higher quality furnace filters, it likely won't do as good of a job and put more strain on your HVAC unit. I have experimented with cheap MERV 10 furnace filters up to 3M's 2200 before buying this.
