It blows out cold air which is useful during the heat. I used it in the evening for an hour and when I walked back in the room it felt fresh and clean.
One of the best purchases I’ve made. I’ve had it for four months now and still haven’t had to change the filter, it doesn’t make too much noise and it is easy to manoeuvre as it’s a good size. Both myself and partner find we can tell a big difference in our breathing and chests when the air purifier isn’t on. Highly recommend, especially if you smoke indoors. Great produc
I have some breathing problems, I don’t sleep that well, nose always seems blocked and I sneeze a lot when first going to bed. This device has helped, it is quiet at night on sleep mode and I turn it up higher during the day. My wife says the room smells fresh, the air clean. Recommended.
So easy to use.i smoke and it clears the room and you can tell the difference.i would recommend this to anyone.
I bought this product to run in the background whilst I sleep but, with an average size double bedroom, it’s too noisy to have on at night. But otherwise, it’s good quality.

Good value and effective. I watched this against the morning light against the dust coming in from the roadworks outside and it made a significant improvement. Not the quietest could only just sleep with it working but it’s quite effective at all levels of intensity.

So easy to set up and use and really good in action.
The ease of use on this item is fantastic. It is also very simple to maintain.
I was surprised at how well this product works, it has a powerful fan the blows out the filtered air and actually would be good as a fan in the summer! Every time I check the filter it has dust in it which means it’s working too.

I’ve got two air purifiers and this one, Russell Hobbs is the smaller one.
It’s really compact compared to other similar air purifiers but I don’t know if that’s a feature, because when talking about this kind of devices, sizes are not that important, more important is that it is working properly.
I’ve got the black colour version of the device, however as I can see in grey it looks way way better.
The control panel is nice as well, with colours and stuff, looking nice and not annoying at all during the night.
It’s quite enough, not too much noise while working, however the 3rd speed won’t let sleep properly.
The timer feature is good as well as it can be left overnight to work or just for a period of the day, without having to come back and turn it off.
No smoke, no dust, even some smells could be removed!
I really like it, didin’t get the chance to test it against allergenic environment, hope that it’s working as good as it did for me on that as well.
Nearly 90 it’s still a decent price for it, compared to 200-250 for a bit bigger ones.

Really good,
I have a small double room and after about 2 hours of running my hayfever symptoms stop.
On the quiet slower mode I was able to sleep with it running and the led light around the control can be turned off.
Have recommended to friends at work. I asked Russell Hobbs customer services where I could get a filter and they can sell them for less that 30 at the time.
Would recommend for allergy sufferers as it helped me sleep no end!

This has really helped with my hayfever!
I can now sleep with the window open at night. As soon as you turn on the fan you can easily notice the purity of the air!
Very happy 😀

Really nice product. There’s a sea of other stuff out there and had no real idea which to get. Saw this in a deal, saw the warranty and just took the punt. Great buy. Premium quality. Quiet on low, quiet controls, and can tell the difference in a room after a short while. Recommended.

The small air purifier is ideal for a small to medium size room.
The noise level is low and you cannot really notice this very much.
The timer function allows you to set the time and sleep mode is amazing it switches off after a certain time , you can set this.
It helps remove odour and pet smells from the air and general particles and bacteria.
Really good air filtering system.

When the product arrived, I was surprised how big it is as I did not expect it to be so “massive”.
As every other Russel Hobbs product, this one as well is of high quality make and can be simply felt it is durable and long lasting.
Clear instruction of how to operate it and in under 10 minutes it was already on and working.
It has touch operation buttons, and it comes with quite long power adaptor cable. Low level setting is tolerable when mentioning the noise, but high-level setting is already louder and cannot really work next to people having a conversation. Timer mode is good and works well.
As big as it is I can see it catches all dust and small particles inside the filter in the air and I must mention that it does not eliminate bad smell, so do not expect that from this device. I had incense burning and turned the purifier straight after to try if it would eliminate bad smell and unfortunately it did not.
Other than that I did not find any malfunctions of the device and If you’re looking for fresher air I would recommend this!

Super easy to use you don’t actually need to use the instructions as long as you take the filter out of its plastic bag before you use it and feature wise it has 3 settings high,medium and sleep and the higher you have it the noisier it is and the light only seems to work on high and medium modes and you can pick a colour or have it change colour consistently, now to the feel it feels a lot fresher will using it and a little cooler as it has fans so great if you get hot at night. Overall great quality and works well.

At the time of this review this air purifier is 76.49. I really didn’t know how much by body needed this until I’d had it set up in my bedroom for 2 weeks. So I’ve always had really good skin but recently I’ve been suffering from allergic type reactions on my face. Ive tried most things and nothing seemed to help. I set this up when i got it and didn’t think much more about it. It had been 2 weeks and my skin was starting to clear when i had given up on topic treatments so this is the only thing that I’d been using. It makes the air clearer and gets rid of allergens. At the minute its even better because of the pandemic so its good to know it gets rid of bacteria out the air but even without the pandemic it’s clearing the air so good I’m actually a little disappointed I didn’t think of this first before spending a fortune on skin treatments. Now it is much bigger / taller than i expected but once you find a decent place for it to go you can just forget about it. It has 3 power setting including one night time (which is much quieter!) also a 2/4/8hr timer and a light option. I have been using 4 hours when i go to bed on the night function.
I would 100% recommend this to anyone!!

A Russell Hobbs Compact Air Purifier with a Hepa filter for 99.5% of particles a 3 layer filtration for allergies, dust,smoke and pet odour . It has led changing lights and night mode which dims the leds and slows down the fan so you can sleep well knowing that the filter is working. The touch control gives easy access to different settings such as 2,4 or 8 hour timer as well so you can have it working while you are out or switching off while you are asleep. This is a well made unit with a strong fan and very compact it is nearly two and a half times smaller than my old one. It is working well and our grandson is having a better nights sleep as his blocked nose and coughing are easing so things can only get better with prolonged use.
I don’t have asthma or allergies but I am a very keen paper crafter and spend many hours in a small room guillotining and cutting paper and card creating paper dust which, although it cannot be seen, it is definitely there. My throat is usually dry and my voice husky when I have been in there for a while. The unit sits nicely into a corner of my craft room, I set the timer to come on 20 minutes on high prior to me entering the room and I could feel the difference, the cool fresh air from the unit made the room much more pleasant. I also noticed that although I use glue and solvents in the room the usual smell was absent, my throat and voice were also normal. Because of this I moved the unit to the kitchen where I had been cooking salmon and the smell was eliminated, I couldn’t find anything in the information to substantiate this but it worked for me.
The instructions are very easy to follow, the light is a nice touch, I found it a bit noisy on high but the medium setting was fine.

I’m not going to argue with the science – if this says it filters 99.5% of particles that trouble allergy sufferers like myself, then this is exactly what I need. At the moment however after using this for a couple of weeks, it’s difficult to see whether it has helped my allergic rhinitis. Perhaps it won’t solve all the problem pollen, dust, cat dander particles circulating, but if it even reduces it and plays a part in other anti-allergenic measures, I’m happy to continue using the Russell Hobbs air filter.
The good points about this are that it’s a capable size and easy to use. Insert the filter, plug it in, switch on and it’s working. You can adjust the three fan speeds and set three timing settings, and there’s a coloured nightlight feature that you can let rotate through or select one. All simple enough. Perhaps too simple? Essentially, it’s just a fan that passes the air through a filter first and blows out cool air that will air-condition the room. It’s also a good size, but still light and portable, which means that you can lift and move it from room to room to freshen air wherever you happen to be.
Simple but effective? The jury is still out for me. I’ve checked the filter and after a couple of weeks it still looks clean and new and no sign of it having picked up any troublesome dust or other particles. Which is good in a way because I haven’t yet found out where you can buy any new filters or how much they cost. Perhaps it’s still a new model and replacement filters aren’t available just yet.
Still, if it helps keep air free from the worst of troublesome particles – even just a little – this would be invaluable to me and I’ll certainly keep using it.

I have it situated in my bedroom at the moment. It really does help you breath easy, taking the dust and moisture out of the air. You can hardly hear it when in operation too, which is good should you want to keep it on during the night. It’s easy enough to move from room to room and doesn’t take up too much space. Russell Hobbs are a name you can trust, and they still are when they release quality products such as this.

Only time will tell as to whether this will be effective for my nephew as he suffers from asthma.
This is easy to put together and will go nicely in the room. It was bigger than expected but the fan is strong so purifies the air, you can feel a difference. It’s light weight too so easy to move around.
The night light is a nice touch, it’s quite bright and lights his room adequately. It’s good that it has a timer function too. It is expensive for what it is and don’t forget you will have to factor in purchasing new filters eventually as these are not reuseable.
For the price alone 4/5. Otherwise looks good and seems to work.

I have two other larger air purifiers and this, though less expensive has comparable features. The unit looks very modern and doesn’t take up much room. There is a 2, 4 or 8 hour timer plus 3 speeds.
You can feel the air around getting fresher. It is an excellent air purifier at a very decent price. It says to replace filter when needed and believe it would be beneficial to provide details on the same Amazon page as the uni

This fan looks much better than the rectangular monstrosities I’ve had before. It’s a discreet black cylinder with minimal branding and small footprint. Attached is a pic next to my cat for scale.
Like many in recent times, I’ve been working from home, and I liked the idea of improving air quality in my livingroom/office. Since air quality is pretty variable depending the level of traffic, weather, and amount of pollen, it’s probably too soon to say definitively whether the fan will suit all seasons, but so far I feel there’s been an improvement. I usually start sneezing around this time as the trees release their blossoms and my symptoms seem to be less severe this year – so far.
The fan certainly moves a good amount of air for its size. At medium setting it has a noticeable but inoffensive whoosh – it definitely blends into general background noise. It’s probably a bit too loud to have on while sleeping at that setting, however. The high setting is definitely noisy and is probably most useful when want to clear out the smell of burnt food or malevolent flatulence as a matter of urgency.
My only grievance with the purifier is that the sleep setting on my unit is unusable due to a faint chirping sound. This isn’t audible on the higher settings, so I’m not sure if it’s a manufacturing issue with the bearing.
It’s a pity, since the night light setting and timer make it ideal to leave on when going to bed, and the purifier is otherwise effective and well designed.

As an asthmatic still suffering the effects of long Covid, this is making a huge difference for me already. I’d always assumed the air purifiers were a similar size unless you were talking the very expensive room ones so I’d skipped past this in the past and bought some basic ones to have in the rooms I used most. They do help us but this is in another league! My other purifiers are all desktop size and this can be used on the floor and it covers a much bigger area – 14 metres cubed. It’s a triple filtration – pre filter, HEPA and carbon which can be cleaned. You can’t wash it but you can brush or vacuum the filter which will prolong it’s life. My other purifiers the filters have to be replaced every 6 months and we normally have to do them at 5 months. There’s 3 settings for filtration – sleep, mid and high. The sleep setting is silent (at least we can’t hear it!), the mid is OK in the background but the high is distracting when watching TV. I tend to use high in the rooms when we aren’t using it or turn it down once I find it too distracting. The night light cycles through the colours or you can select one you want to keep. I don’t really use it because it turns off in sleep mode automatically. It’s a feature I really appreciate as I can’t turn off the operating light on my other air purifiers and one is next to my bed. There’s 2, 4 and 8 hour timers or you can leave it on. I’ve been leaving it on sleep during the night in my bedroom as I’d been using my salbutamol more again with hayfever kicking in. A few days of this running in the bedroom and I’ve not needed my inhaler in the house. The air just feels cleaner too.
The best part with this purifier is we can take it into other rooms and leave it on a timer then move it back to my bedroom at night. It’s meant my son, also an allergic asthmatic is noticing the difference too. My husband developed low oxygen saturation levels after Covid so he really noticed the difference using this in the living room over the weekend. I always think HEPA filtration is most effective for allergic asthmatics and as we all have dust, mite and pollen allergies we do feel the benefit of owning a Shark and small HEPA filter purifiers as well as diffusers.
Until I had Covid my asthma was well controlled but I developed post Covid breathing disorder and needed steroids and multiple courses of antibiotics. I bought my first air purifier just before I was put on steroids and it made a big difference at the time. I added more around the home more because it was soon apparent the air quality in my bedroom was much better. So any type of purifier helps but if you can afford one like this it’s worth every penny for an allergic asthmatic, in my opinion. So glad we have this now!
Somewhere along the way, I picked up a bit of a dust allergy, and this thing has been a genuine God-send.
Firstly, it looks sleek and fancypants – all shiny and black and lit up like a disco. It’s small enough to fit into the corner of the room when not in use (but when it is in use, you’ll need to keep it at least 30cm away from anything so it has time to do its thing.)
It has multiple settings that you can control from the top: you can select from 3 speeds (the top speed is the loudest, but it’s still completely fine – for example, running it while you’re asleep won’t be a bother), and you can set the timer so it will automatically switch off after 2, 4 or 8 hours. This is a brilliant feature if you want to run it for a limited amount of time.
And to the air cleaning: now, we don’t have any pets, so I can’t speak tot he pet dander, but if we run this in the bedroom for the day, when we go up in the evening, it *feels* cleaner, and am very aware of sneezing less. To be honest, I haven’t noticed less dust on surfaces, so we’re still removing that by hand, but it seems to swipe dust particles out of the air, which is just splendid!
It also claims to filter out bacteria and viruses – I know in the age of the ‘rona we’re all looking for ways to keep our houses free of it but as far as I know, this doesn’t filter out particles that small. It does say it will filter out 99.5% of air guck, though, so it probably filters out everything but!
This is such a brilliant thing – we’ve had air purifiers before, and this is really the best one. If you’re tempted, it’s so worth the punt.

And to the air cleaning: now, we don’t have any pets, so I can’t speak tot he pet dander, but if we run this in the bedroom for the day, when we go up in the evening, it *feels* cleaner, and am very aware of sneezing less. To be honest, I haven’t noticed less dust on surfaces, so we’re still removing that by hand, but it seems to swipe dust particles out of the air, which is just splendid!
It also claims to filter out bacteria and viruses – I know in the age of the ‘rona we’re all looking for ways to keep our houses free of it but as far as I know, this doesn’t filter out particles that small. It does say it will filter out 99.5% of air guck, though, so it probably filters out everything but!
This is such a brilliant thing – we’ve had air purifiers before, and this is really the best one. If you’re tempted, it’s so worth the punt.
As an asthmatic still suffering the effects of long Covid, this is making a huge difference for me already. I’d always assumed the air purifiers were a similar size unless you were talking the very expensive room ones so I’d skipped past this in the past and bought some basic ones to have in the rooms I used most. They do help us but this is in another league! My other purifiers are all desktop size and this can be used on the floor and it covers a much bigger area – 14 metres cubed. It’s a triple filtration – pre filter, HEPA and carbon which can be cleaned. You can’t wash it but you can brush or vacuum the filter which will prolong it’s life. My other purifiers the filters have to be replaced every 6 months and we normally have to do them at 5 months. There’s 3 settings for filtration – sleep, mid and high. The sleep setting is silent (at least we can’t hear it!), the mid is OK in the background but the high is distracting when watching TV. I tend to use high in the rooms when we aren’t using it or turn it down once I find it too distracting. The night light cycles through the colours or you can select one you want to keep. I don’t really use it because it turns off in sleep mode automatically. It’s a feature I really appreciate as I can’t turn off the operating light on my other air purifiers and one is next to my bed. There’s 2, 4 and 8 hour timers or you can leave it on. I’ve been leaving it on sleep during the night in my bedroom as I’d been using my salbutamol more again with hayfever kicking in. A few days of this running in the bedroom and I’ve not needed my inhaler in the house. The air just feels cleaner too.
The best part with this purifier is we can take it into other rooms and leave it on a timer then move it back to my bedroom at night. It’s meant my son, also an allergic asthmatic is noticing the difference too. My husband developed low oxygen saturation levels after Covid so he really noticed the difference using this in the living room over the weekend. I always think HEPA filtration is most effective for allergic asthmatics and as we all have dust, mite and pollen allergies we do feel the benefit of owning a Shark and small HEPA filter purifiers as well as diffusers.
Until I had Covid my asthma was well controlled but I developed post Covid breathing disorder and needed steroids and multiple courses of antibiotics. I bought my first air purifier just before I was put on steroids and it made a big difference at the time. I added more around the home more because it was soon apparent the air quality in my bedroom was much better. So any type of purifier helps but if you can afford one like this it’s worth every penny for an allergic asthmatic, in my opinion. So glad we have this now!
I had been looking for an Air Purifier that fitted in with my decor and looked smart for some time, so I was pleased to see this available on the Vine Program and to be able to put it through its paces.
It arrives in a nice smart box that looks extremely expensive, and upon opening the air purifier itself is clearly a premium product that lives up to the level of its packaging.
It has a nice contemporary design that features a digital display and colour changing LED lighting, it also has a touch control panel along with 3 speed settings plus a timer option of either 2,4 or 8 hours giving you total control that suits your needs.
The machine itself is perfect for rooms that are up to 10m which is perfect for my living room and it has a clean air delivery rate of 80m/h. It has a 3 layer filtration system which includes an HEPA filter that captures 99.95% of particles and is ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers as it filters pollen, pet hair, dust, bacteria and viruses.
The machine itself is black in colour, 40cm tall and 20cm wide, weighing just 2.3kg it is lightweight enough to move from room to room if you wish, enabling you to have clean air wherever you are in the home.
It also has the ability to remind you when it’s time to change the filter as well as a night time mode which sims the LED display and slows down the fan speed to allow you to sleep comfortably.
This product comes with a free one year manufacturers guarantee, however when you register your product this is then upgraded to a two year guarantee which I am impressed to see.
This air filter is the best I have ever used and it is great for cleaning the air and for cooling the room down, it is much quieter than an iOS one that I once had and I have no trouble using it in the bedroom when I am sleeping, even on the higher setting I can cope with it, although to many people this would be too loud, however on the quietest setting I think anyone would be fine with it. It is great for ridding the rooms of unwanted smells and when we recently cooked bacon it was very noticeable how quickly the smell dispersed where usually it lingers for hours so this clearly is having a positive effect.
It is easy to clean the filter by using a small brush or the vacuum occasionally and I have found no huge amounts of muck in it, just the expected dog hair that used to circulate the room is now pulled into here and away from the air which is nice.
Overall this is a fantastic product that I have no hesitation in recommending to anyone looking for a decent air purifier. It is worth every penny of the 69.99 price tag (price at time of review) and I love the 2 year guarantee as it gives me peace of mind and reassurance that I am covered if it goes wrong. It is easy to rate this a full 5 stars and am sure you will not be disappointed if you choose to purchase this product.
I hope that this review has been helpful to you in deciding whether this is the right product for you.
This is an excellent product and works exactly as described. After having it on the lowest setting for a few days/nights. I couldn’t really tell if it was working or not. So turned it off and the difference was staggering when I came back after a few hours! It’s far too loud to have it on anything other than the lowest setting if you’re also in the room but low is quiet enough to sleep in the room. The top setting would be good for a quick cleanse. It is extremely easy to understand and pick up how to use the machine as the keys and functions were quite straightforward and self-explanatory.Must have for hay fever sufferers.

I have a few air purifiers this one has the smallest filter, its quite loud compared to its size I would have expected it to be quieter. it looks stylish and as an optional light which makes it look cool, the sittings are simple low, medium and high which makes it cleary and simple to use, everything seems intuitive and you can work it without needing instruction. I think a nice air purifier is worth the price.

This is a very smart looking product- it is very intuitive to use and super easy to get going… although be sure to remove the plastic bag from the filter before use – there is a sticker on the back which alerts you to this. Its really easy to access – a turn counter clockwise using a handle on the bottom.
Its pretty powerful – it blows out a surprising amount of air! I’d imagine this woukd be great in the summer… I offered to test this as we have dust allergies. I was hoping to use it at bed time but its far too noisy for me. Instead we’ve been using it a few hours before bedtime and the air does seem very clean and fresh. It smells the way it does when you’ve had the winsdows open all day which is brilliant for winter when it’s far too cold to do that. It does make a positive difference with regards to symptoms of dust allergy in our case.
The unit itself is very well made. It seems solid and sturdy and looks and feels very well made. The display and controls are clear. It wouldn’t lookout of place in an room and is effective in rooms up to 10 Square metres.
Im giving this 4 stars rather than 5 as it is a touch noisy and I can’t locate the replacement filters at the time of writing. I guess the cost of these is an important consideration in thinking about overall value. However, as it is, its a really well made product that works really well.
I was given this product to try with no promise of a favourable review.
I have been using this air purifier in the bedroom, usually setting it for 2 hours when I go to bed and it is quiet – you just have a low hum from the fan, and it has a good output of cooled air – will be even more useful in the summer. There is a ‘nightlight’ feature but this is not intrusive, just a colour changing circle of light which is enough to make it visible in a dark room without disturbing sleep. It is my first air purifier and I had not realised the size and bulk of it, but it makes sense that to filter air in a decent sized room that it would need to be a substantial piece of machinery. I did check the filter after using it a few times, and couldn’t see any visible contamination – the instructions do say that the filter can be brushed clean, making it last a bit longer. I have it positioned near a vent in the wall which connects to the house next door and lets just say that sometimes there are some ‘interesting’ smells that drift through – I haven’t noticed any of that since using this machine.

Russell Hobbs compact air purifier does a fantastic job, we are lucky that we live quiet rurally so our air quality is usually quite good, but we have new neighbours, and they like to smoke right underneath our back windows as it’s a very old house it comes through even when the windows are closed, so this has been a god send, as we can run it when we need it. That being said we have been running it lots as I didn’t realise how dusty our house was, tis has also helped with that and now I’ve tried it I wouldn’t be without.
This is a very nice compact air purifier, small and stylish in build, the build quality is very good as you would expect from Russell Hobbs with a clear and easy to use touch control panel on the top. IT has 3 fan speed settings and I did a quick test, with my phone mic a foot away from the fan the low setting its about 60db, medium is 70db and high is 80db which I have tried to show in the video. I find all are quite noisy but as it has a timer mode, I can put it on for a set period while I am not in the room.
A remote or app would be nice to control it with. The price is not bad and for a small purifier I think is good value for money.

It does what it supposed to. I like the modern sleek design, it’s not too ugly or bulky if you keep it in a bedroom fit example. I don’t know if I am noticing a difference just yet but I do like this product and use it every day

This is pleasant to use. It came in fairly good packaging – extra cardboard would have been preferable to the plastic bag and its lack of handles to help get it out – and there wasn’t *too* much excess waste. I requested it as someone with whom I live has asthma.
This is pretty easy to use and seems effective, though I’ve not looked into the cost of replacement filters. The settings are easy to understand and use and pricing seems reasonable. For those reasons, I tentatively give this 5 stars after some use. Filters/consumables are sometimes the downfall with products, so I try to avoid buying them directly from the manufacturer. I’m not saying that this will be the case here, but companies sometimes try to overprice a post-sales consumable, knowing that some will buy directly from them and overpay.
I’ve only used one air purifier prior to this, so take that into account.

I’ve been running this in my den for a few days now and I’m loving its performance.
The air feels so much purer, and, well, HEALTHY.
Put it on its lowest setting and it’s very quiet – so much so that I can read a book without a noisy distraction.
Made by Russell Hobbs – a name I feel I can always depend on for quality and value for money.
Apologies that this is a non-technical review, but I just wanted to share my enthusiasm for this unit in plain, unadorned language.
A winner.
I was excited to try this air purifier as I’ve been struggling with allergies (dust mites and grass pollen). The air purifier is a good size, I was actually surprised by how compact it is and expected it to be a lot bigger. It’s a sleek and simple design and will fit in well with any room as it’s black and wouldn’t stand out.
The air purifier is sturdy and well made, you wouldn’t expect anything less from a brand like Russell Hobbs. It’s super easy to set up – before your first use you need to remove the air filter from its packaging. All you do is twist the bottom to get the filter out and take it out of its plastic and put it back in. Once this is done, you can plug it in and you’re good to go.
There are three different speed settings and a timer function (2hr, 4hr & 8hr). There’s a night mode which means it’s super quiet and does not disturb your sleep. There is a digital display and colour-changing LED lighting where you can choose the colour of your choice (blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, red & purple).
The H13 HEPA filter captures 99.95% of particles so it’s perfect for people like me who suffer from a pollen and dust allergy. It filters smoke, pet dander, pollen and dust, as well as capturing bacteria and viruses as small as 0.3 microns, making it perfect for allergy and asthma sufferers.
You also get a year of free warranty if you register the product on the Russell Hobbs website.

This is a really reasonably priced air purifier that’s a good size with a strong filter and fan combination.
It’s really easy to set up and use. The instructions state that it’s ready to go as soon as you plug it in, HOWEVER there’s a sticker on the back stating you need to remove the packaging from the filter first… the sticker is what you need to listen to. The base of the purifier comes off easily and the filter slots out. It was in a sealed plastic bag that needed removing. Once the filter was ready to go and the base screwed back on it just needed plugging in and switching on to get going.
All the buttons are touch sensitive and easy to use and follow. You can change the fan speed between its three setting, set a timer or turn on the small night light all with simpler touches.
At its highest setting it’s quite a strong fan for its size. I’m the summer it would double as a really decent small fan to help keep you cool.
Even at its loudest it’s still pretty quiet and would be easy to sleep through. (I’ve noticed it sounds really loud in the video I’ve posted but that’s only because my phone was so close to it )
The light setting is also a nice touch. It can either circle through the colours or stay on a solid colour. It’s not very bright but gives a nice low light at night.
The filter is a large round filter that looks like it will do a really great job.
Currently my only downside to this is the availability of the filter when it needs replacing. I can’t find it anywhere. I’m not 100% sure on the name of the filter (the listing mentions H13 HEPA filter but I can’t find that anywhere) and on searching I can’t seem to find anything in the Russle Hobbs website that looks like it will fit. I have sent an enquiry to them to see if they can point me in the right direction though so fingers crossed they can.
Overall putting aside the filter issue I’m really happy with this purifier and would definitely recommend it, especially if your tight on space and need a more compact purifier. Hopefully I will be able to find the replacement filters and will update the review when I hear back from them about it.
EDIT – Russel Hobbs have been in contact and confirmed that right now the filter is out of stock but should be back in stock and easy to replace in the next month or so.
Unfortunately I developed a pet allergy not long after getting 2 cats, they are lovely and just work at relieving my allergy. I jumped at the chance to try this air purifier and even in only a few days I noticed the difference!
The machine covers a 10m square room so pretty good for most living rooms/bedrooms, sleek design with 3 settings and colour changing lights – that can be turned off. Handy 3 setting timer with 8 hours being the top setting.
I’ve never used an air purifier before so this is going to sound a bit silly but I honestly hadn’t considered that you need to keep them running 24/7 to have an impact on dust etc. I suppose its kind of obvious but just something I hadn’t considered. I’m not sure how much electricity it uses so I’m a bit worried about cost of running it all the time. I do clean quite a lot because of pet allergy so consider my home reasonable and these days I tend to have flare ups instead of constantly suffering.
So I decided to use the purifier only at night, on the low setting for 8 hour timer and I really have noticed the difference, instead of waking up with a stuffy nose I wake up feeling great. If I get too mush of a flare up I also bring it into the living room and within half an hour I start to feel a bit better.
Overall I am very happy with this little air purifier, only 40 cm high it fit well into any room. Noise wise it fine, low setting I would call it a hum, the other two its definitely more like a fan but that’s what you would expect.
My only niggle and it does seem a bit harsh to knock any stars off so I haven’t is theres no hand grip to move it, just would of been easier if there was a small slot at the back so you can grip it to pick up – not a problem just a preference.

The air purifier arrived safely, and it comes nicely packaged in a well-illustrated retail box. The unit stands roughly 40cm high, weighs about 2.2kg and features a 1.4m cable with UK plug attached. It has four silicone feet on the base which are very grippy and you get one filter included.
The purifier has a matt black finish to it, and I like the design of it, especially the way it blows the air across the room rather than at your ceiling like other purifiers I have used. The light up ring in the centre of the output fan is a nice touch and it will cycle through 7 different colours (blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, red & purple), but you can set it to a specific colour or turn the light off completely if needed.
Its simple to operate as there are just three fan speed settings and a timer function (2hr, 4hr & 8hr). On the lowest speed the purifier is pretty quiet in operation, but it still manages to output a decent amount of air, I could easily sleep with it on this setting and I feel if you don’t suffer from a lot of dust in your home then this fan speed is perfect for everyday use. The highest setting is fairly loud, but it really does shift a lot of air.
The HEPA filter is easy to replace as you just turn the purifier over, unscrew the base and the filter just slides out. It doesn’t state in the manual how often you should change it, but it all depends on the environment its operating in, probably every 6 months or when its starts to smell would be a good idea. You can vacuum the filter to remove any excess dust, but they shouldn’t be washed. I tried to find a replacement filter online but was unsuccessful so I’m unsure of the price at the moment.
Overall, I think this is basic but decent air purifier that works well, looks nice, is good quality and is priced quite fairly in comparison to others so I feel it represents good value for money. If you have a lot of dust in your home or just generally would like cleaner air to breath then I would definitely recommend buying a purifier and this one from Russell Hobbs is a great choice, I just hope the filters are reasonably priced when they come out!
An easy recommendation from me and I feel its worth the full five stars, buy with confidence and don’t forget to register the product for an additional year of warranty!
