Hi! Best way to keep your apartment smelling fresh is a air purifier. I use Blueair 311i max. It covers over 3000sq ft. I’m in a 1000sqft apartment and the overkill on purifying is worth it. I smoke weed occasionally inside and within an hour or so, it’s gone. Good luck. You can always report it. Sm

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. On auto mode it usually drops below 10 in 15 to 20 minutes. It’s honestly a relief to see the sensor light turn from orange to blue. When I was first lo

Hmm not seeing what you're seeing...I'm seeing $240, but ya your right, they are available so not discontinued at least. https://www.blueair.com/products/blue-pure-311i-plus-max?srsltid=AfmBOorh6W7WeKGc75U6aAXmYbFpzgRfiafao2ZBWp27ITb0yZrUabyH I'm glad too because you scared me for a sec.

It’s a 311 auto that is an older generation of the 311i max and the filters are very different. My review https://housefresh.com/blueair-blue-pure-311-auto-review/

Thank you for the very detailed response. Very sorry to hear about your experience. I appreciate the recommendation but I have to consider looks. It’s just who I am, and I wouldn’t enjoy having the typical air purifier, looks wise. I heard about the ionizer in Blueair as well, and did some research.

The Pet "MVP": Levoit Vital 200S This is the most recommended unit on Reddit right now. Unlike circular purifiers, it has a U-shaped intake that doesn't get "hairballs" stuck in the grill. Best for: Everyday pet hair and dander. The Secret: The pre-filter is a sturdy, washable mesh you can pop off a

The "Reddit Gold Standard": WINIX 5510 Despite being an older chassis, this is still the undisputed king of value in 2026. Why? Because the AOC Carbon Filter is actually washable and uses real pelletized carbon, unlike the "carbon-coated sponges" you see in cheap clones. Best for: Most living rooms/
