panasonic is like toyota... those idiots who buy it coz of brand only

cant la, u intro 1 all very very very expensive, haih.. unless im super rich i will get la, now haih salary macam peanut. worst case senario pakai surgical mask

Choose which one you can affort it la, but no cheap cheap brand at least still can function for basic i think.

only UV radiation 2 kill germs bac n virus but also not effectively
the product does not have UVGI in its spec so it is a scam

2 remove VOC in air, they normally use hydroxyl radical
but in household air filter due 2 size constrain, it has been proven tat it is ineffective n might even produce pollutant

just a normal hepa pm 2.5 filter is enough ady

Go do research before said.

no need research, i got a safety officer ISO certified last time work i hospital with me
these tech r 4 hospital, even big expensive high class hospital struggle financially 2 run tis kind of operation 2 fully cover its ground

n many of them ditch VOC removal product bcauz hydroxyl radical instead of binding with VOC
it bind with other things n create pollutant, the machine is not cheap also

if the device didn't cost at lease RM 40k it is a scam

Whatever...

panasonic got odor detector and dust also.. very nice i think good buy.

that panasonic model does not have the meshed filter

Amway? expensive la i think they just want entry level only. your proposal is 10X times their budget?

Just a sharing based on what the third party website got, see what type of allergens they want to filter, or just depends on their budget. No harm..

understood. sorry.

is Coway brand good?

leasing RM95 / month or outright purchase RM3,000

Is it the maintenance fee for the filter per year is RM550 ?

kinda expensive for rm3K

no idea. i just get to know this.

i think this is high end model...

I heard that it need maintenance every year and the filter cost RM550 , quite a big amount when for long run. Dont think why need to change filter every year. Atmosphere air filter can at least 3- 5 yers depends on environment.

can use easy payment tak bro>?

Are you supposed to throw out the filter and change to a new filter every year?

I've just been cleaning the filter to save money.

let me share what I know by reading from the web.

if what u "heard" is true.

there is always pro n con on the 2 different payment methods either leasing (RM95/mth) or outright purchase (RM3,000).

Lets assume for 5 years ownership cost:
if u opt for leasing:

RM95 per month worry free. that's all (oh plus RM200 registration fees)
every 2 months servicing is FOC.

auto debit monthly - RM95 x 12 months x 5 yrs = 5,700
then come advance payment for
1 year - get 5% discount = RM1,083 x 5 yrs = 5,415
2 years 10% discount = RM2,052 x 2.5 times = 5,130

if you terminate your leasing, you need to return the machine back to Coway.


if u opt for outright purchase:

RM3,000 - the ownership is belong to you!
Free 1-year service
RM3,000 + 1 yr free + 4 yrs of servicing cost RM550 each (RM2,200) = RM5,200

u pick 1 considering cashflow, inflation... etc etc...
