Blue Pure 311

I’ve been using a Blueair 311i Max for about a year now. My indoor AQI used to be around 45 to 60 on normal days and sometimes higher when cooking.

So this shouldn’t be a deciding factor, I’d say ur good regarding thi

I'm unsure about ion concentrations the Blueair produces vs. Winix, so you may or may not notice a difference. For Blueair and Winix, the activated carbon angle is moot. These brands (and most other common consumer-grade purifiers) have far too little activated carbon or other sorbent media by weigh

Purifiers aren't good at reducing visible dust, as it's large and heavy compared to "invisible" pollutants like PM10, PM2.5, and PM0.1. See the sticky post at the top of the subreddit and our FAQs wiki page entries about dust: I need an air purifier for dust. What should I buy? Why is there visible

I should probably mention I also have a BlueAir 211+ in the living room (open to the kitchen and dining nook). It does take more than one of these to cover an apartment, so I have the larger BlueAir in the living room and the Coway in the bedroom. The BlueAir 211+ and the newer 211i/311i Max are als
