He might not be the cheapest, but he offer delivery service for you (charges apply) within the products warranty period by sending back to China, compare to others 3months warranty that selling at less than RM700~650..

Replacement filter got. I waiting he bring in gen 2.

Because smaller and cheaper to fit my small room. I already have a big air purifier from Amway for my living room...

If you are not allergic, then no need worry about... Ionizers is not a important feature that you should looks into. Choosing a good purifier, the first priority things is the CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) that capable to filter. And does the HEPA filter, is it able to filter PM2.5 (Particulate Matter).

Because that is the basic standard of what an air purifier should be. Ionizer is extra feature.

Just like water purifier, it must able to remove all unwanted stuff from the water while retain what should have in the water. Hot and cold feature is additional/optional feature.

A air conditioning should able to produce cold air, ionizer also additional features.

Boiler should able to boil water, keep warm or able to make Coffee is additional features.

So, TLDR? Look for a air purifier with Hepa features that capable to filter PM2.5 and high CADR. Check the Hepa filter micron. If need to filter VOC stuff, you need a filter call carbon filter.

Got.

If you want to buy Air Purifier just to buy filter some those dusts, animals furs, flower pollen and haze (like PM2.5) etc.. Yes, the Xiaomi one will do what it you wanted to without breaking your bank.

Actually I think if anyone found people selling at RM799 or below are reasonable. Here is why:

1. Now exchange rate are between 0.68~0.72x, so the Xiaomi Air Purifier selling in China are 899RMB are almost RM611~647
2. That things weight total to 8KG, you do the calculation for shipping from China to Malaysia for just one items. It will costs around RM100~200 alone, otherwise you have to use agents to make it cheaper.
3. What about warranty? Think about it, if the seller offer 3months ~ 6months warranty ("IF" without additional shipping charge sending back to China), You do the calculation again.
4. Replacement filter are cheap which can be easily source from China/Xiaomi, only pay to one middle-man/forwarder. No multi-level middleman markup price, unless Xiaomi started plan to sell here.

So what I think is, the people who sell here are saving all the hassle you need to encounter.

One of my friends even told me about this, I ask him, how many you bought, he said 3 units (he is in Singapore, haze last time from Indonesia), then I said warranty how? he said no warranty. Then I ask why? he said, who the fark care about warranty, is so freaking cheap compare to those high-end Japan Brand Air Purifier and yet the Xiaomi Purifier is efficient and powerful. If breakdown can't fix, just throw away it, who gonna pay the 8KG weight shipping fees sending back to China, and then again sending back to here again?

If you are allergy to flower pollen, got senior that are weak, junior that immune system are still young, animals furs like cats or dogs, car pollution like in down town, lack of fresh air indoor. Any many many mores... Indoor pollution are more than outdoor.

Not just haze.. That is a bad concept.. Most people think they do not need, is because air pollution can't bee seen. That is why when haze incoming, every one rush to buy one, because haze can be seen.

Is just like water purifier 10-20years ago, most people still think they do not need.

Directd already selling the Gen1 RM799 and Gen2 RM599. Go check out their Lelong store.

Gen 1. Gen2 is for those really very small room and tight budget.

HEPA > Ionizer (Plasmacluster®)

Is a branding name "Plasmacluster®" through TV advertising that brainwash our thought. You won't see Hospital or Food/Drinks or Medicine manufacturer use Ionizer. They all use HEPA type purification.

I believe they will keep both selling, because both market at different people need. Is not even 1 year yet after the Gen1 announced. Don't worry, Xiaomi always keep all their replacement parts for sales, just like their Phone parts.

You can buy 2 units 1st gen, 1 unit 2nd gen. compare to 1unit Sharp. you say?

Some review you can be easily found online.

You need a premium one, look for Amway Atmosphere. If your budget tight, go for Xiaomi Mi Purifier Gen 1.

Put a bowl of water inside your air-con room. By the way, do your Air-con come with ionizer capable (like plasmacluter technology?) if Yes, get rid of it, Asthma people can't use.

Short answer. Yes.
