Let me start by saying this air purifier is a BEAST. The dual-side air intake isn't just marketing fluff - I literally watched it clear my living room of cooking smells in under 10 minutes after burning some toast (oops).

The smart features are where this unit really shines. Being able to check my air quality from bed via the app is game-changing. When wildfire smoke hit our area last month, I could see the PM2.5 levels spike and watch the purifier kick into high gear automatically.

As someone with dust allergies, I've noticed a HUGE difference in my symptoms since using this. The H14 HEPA filter (yes, it's actually labeled H14 despite what some reviews claim) catches everything - I know because I can see the dust accumulating on the pre-filter.

The quiet operation is no joke. At 22dB in sleep mode, it's quieter than my fridge humming. No more glowing LEDs keeping me awake either - just pure, clean air all night.

My only gripe? The app could use a slight redesign - it's functional but not the most intuitive interface. That said, being able to control it with Alexa makes up for this minor flaw.

For large spaces (my open-concept 2,000 sq ft apartment), this is hands-down the best purifier I've tested. It's eliminated pet odors from my neighbor's apartment and keeps wildfire smoke at bay better than any unit I've tried before.
