Thinking to get a Xiaomi Air Purifier for bedroom.
Are air purifiers a waste of money?
I don't have allergy, asthma or anything.
Is it just a hype?
What do you think?

QUOTE(tsg_7 @ Sep 17 2018, 12:11 PM) effective in removing dust and odour. i had stubborn durian odour in car for a few days. left the air purifier in the car overnight and the smell had reduced significantly in one night. repeated for another day and it was almost gone. also, i have one in the wardrobe to help control fungus which used to plague my clothes especially those not worn for sometime. |

So meaning it has to be in closed condition.also, i have one in the wardrobe to help control fungus which used to plague my clothes especially those not worn for sometime. |

As long as u are just as healthy and fine without the purifier, then perhaps there is no need to buy one. Unless, you need one because of odours or someone in the house as some medical condition

I think usually ppl with indoor pets will get one to control the smell and also to trap the fur of the pets. I got myself one cuz i have a bunny running around and it helps but i wonder whether it will work that efficiently in a room with windows open or nto.

If got child in house - air purifier is must have to avoid developing asthma on the child, because mould can grow in house make air is not clean.

I got the Xiaomi Air Purifier 2, good for dust and sensitive nose, as my area now full of constructions and lots dust that causes bad air quality, turn it on in closed living room and you can feel the differences.
