Air purifier that reduces allergies and makes air 'so much fresher' now 15% off
"Two days in and I can feel/see the difference - Less sneezing and itchy eyes, no dust particles floating in the air when the shines through the window." It's officially hay fever season, and many of us who suffer from allergies may be admitting defeat to the next few months of itchy eyes and runny noses. But investing in an air purifier can significantly reduce dust and pollen in the air of the house, especially for those who like to keep the windows open in the summer. Shoppers are racing to pick up the top-rated LEVOIT Air Purifier on Amazon, which is currently on a generous 15 per cent discount. Usually retailing on the website for £50, the gadget has been reduced to a more budget-friendly £42.49. The purifier comes with a three-layer Hepa filter that removes pollutants like dust, pet dander, pollen, smoke, odours, and hair from the air. It uses 360 degree VortexAir 3.0 technology and three-stage filtration, which allow it to purify 34 square meters once in one hour, according to its product description. And what's more, the purifier claims to cost just 28 pence a week to run. With a rated power of 7W and Energy Star certified, it uses half the power of other air purifiers. It even has an aroma pad where users can add a few drops of essential oils to freshen up the air and add a relaxing scent to the room. LEVOIT Air Purifier £49.99 £42.49 Amazon Shop Product Description For those browsing the market for air purifiers, Argos offers the Blueair Blue 3350i Air Purifier, which is currently £50 off. However, this discounted option is still pricier than Amazon's at £189. Argos also offers a dehumidifier and air purifier in one. The Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier comes up pricier as well, at £190, but has a five-star rating from over 1,000 reviews. But the Amazon air purifier has raked in some fantastic reviews too, and it boasts an overall rating of 4.4 stars out of a possible five. One pleased shopper said: "I got this to help clear the smell I've got from my cats litter box and I have to say, I've had it for 2 weeks now and I've noticed such a difference. The air smells so much fresher and I no longer notice the smell from both litter boxes. "It was very easy to set up and has 3 modes, I have it on 2 and leave it on all day. It does have a little bit of a noise when on 2 and 3, but nothing louder than a little fan. It's a good size and isn't too big. Would definitely recommend!" However, not everyone was pleased with the air purifier, as one less happy shopper wrote: "This product is expensive and it rattles like a fridge with bottles in it !!! "Nothing to keep filter inside still. Even tried taping it and still the same. Plus the aromatherapy pad in side of it doesn't work at all." Other negative reviews mention the product arriving with a US plug instead of a UK plug in error. But another customer was happy with their purchase, saying: "I bought this for my bedroom/office as it was getting more use working from home and I noticed an increase in dust and therefore allergies as I have the windows open to keep some fresh air and cool in the summer. "Two days in and I can feel/see the difference - Less sneezing and itchy eyes, no dust particles floating in the air when the shines through the window." The Amazon air purifier can be purchased here.

Tech review: Levoit Core Mini Air Purifier helps tackle hay fever and dust with minimal noise
Any product that promises to improve people's air quality is certainly worth a look, especially like me when you live in an older house and one with two pets. My wife also suffers from hay fever and has asthma, so we are probably the perfect Unlike many air purifiers that are on the market, this one from Levoit is a mini version of a bigger product. The compact nature of the device means that it doesn't sit too overpowering in any environment whether it's a bedroom or a kitchen. I sat it in the living room when I was testing it, and the first thing I noticed was that even on the most powerful setting it was very quiet, unnoticeable on the lower settings. That ensured that it was really unobtrusive when the tv was on or we were chatting to each other, it also means you could happily put it in a bedroom without worrying about being disturbed. The purpose of the air purifier is to remove dust particles, pet dander, pollen, and, of course, odours. The Core mini claims to be able to purify 17㎡ in just half an hour using 360° VortexAir 3.0 technology and a 3-stage filtration system. The advice is to change the filters every 4-6 months and you will get a notification on the unit's display screen to check them. There is advice in the instruction booklet on how to clean the filters and when they need replacing, and how to do so. I haven't been using it for long enough, but we have had it on the go for a couple of weeks and myself and my wife feel like we can notice a difference in the air quality. I always find it hard to gauge the actual success of these things and there is an element of trusting the science. The size of the item is about the same as a rugby ball, and probably about the same weight. It's very portable, very easy to use, and only has a power button and three settings. That's my kind of gadget. The other option you have with the purifier is a little slot that you push in to expose a fabric pad, you can add essential oils to that to give it an aromatherapy vibe. The Levoit Core Mini Air Purifier is currently available via Amazon UK for £49.99. Reviews "Really good, Doesn't use much electricity , is very compact and light weight ease to put into a busy room. No allergens, I have had it for months now lifespan is great no fault in it so far. There is 3 different speeds i enjoy the cool breeze from the highest speed great for a warm day. Very quiet as well great to leave on while you sleep." "I've been using for two weeks now and do not notice a difference at all in air quality to breathe in etc like people have been saying it's like mountain air? OK... Its not." "It's helped with dust particles some what but not all which is fine I guess. I used to have to clean my keyboard once a day when I got back from work with an air duster etc but now I only rly need to do it Once per 2-3days now."
