Found one of these out by the trash bin at work tonight. I work as a security guard for an apt complex that houses mostly fairly wealthy older people and the things they throw away are absolutely MIND BLOWING. In the 3 weeks I’ve worked here I’ve found a Blueair 411, an armoir, and a mountain bike frame that was practically brand new and only missing one tire. I even helped an older gentleman (prolly around 80 yo) load up his Uhaul and when he was done he said “whelp, it’s full. Feel free to take whatever’s left inside.”the guy left 2 40” flatscreens, an UNOPENED Xbox one X I found in the back of a storage closet, an industrial strength washer that’s prolly worth around $2700, and I think around $3000 worth of tools. Needless to say I snagged the Xbox, one of the tvs, and a few of the tools. In about a month I’ll prolly have enough stuff to throw a yard sale or smth 😂
“Prolly” isn’t a word; it’s probably.
But nice story and I agree with you. It’s amazing the variety of things people throw away. I found a Pure 411 just last weekend that someone left beside the dumpster. I’ve found so many things. Four different brands of air fryers, toaster ovens, vacuums, microwaves, printers, monitors, computers, TVs, hard drives, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, other air purifiers, speakers, turntables, the list goes on…
It’s only money

I like mine. Works well. I cannot open my bedroom windows so my room stank of my stale sweat, nocturnal farts and was dusty. I put it on for a few hours before bed and WOW! nice clean chilled, oudorless, fresh bedroom to sleep in. I LOVE IT
I would not want to be your roommate.
@@bobbywoods684 Lol😀😀
Are they paying you for this review or have you made it up
Nocturnal farts... That's the first time in my 29 years i've seen those words used together 😂
@@Pazaluz 👍👍
Great review! Convinced and bought 2 units!!! Thanks!!!
Great and comprehensive review.. thank you!
You’re welcome!
Bought one today love it
Thank you for the information 🙏🏽
Really helps! Thx
This was very informative, thank you!
I get it now about the unvelcro the cord
Thanks
A tip for you. I place a cotton ball with a few drops lavender oil inside on the bottom of the filter. Gives the room a nice scent
Thank you for sharing your tip. I just bought one and I was thinking wouldn't it be nice to produce a nice smell of air at the same time then I saw your message 😊👍
@@joyzheng8127 Thank you Joy. I've been using pine & sweet orange essential oil in mine over xmas. Makes the room smell gorgeous. All the best to you for 2022
I just tried mine with lavender oil, now my bedroom smells lovely. I am very tempted to get another one for my living room with a different scent. For years, I spent money on candles and diffusers, none of which worked well as this one. Who would thought! Happy New Year to you too! :)
@@joyzheng8127 Yes Lavender is one of my faves. I bought another for the living room.. Better than using candles & diffusers. Visitors always say how fresh my living room is❤❤
Wouldn’t that damage the air purifier?
Love mine! Forgot it was in the house til I heard the fan
So it's very noisy
@@shahzadmatloob9763 Don’t hear it at all. Fan is silent even to have a conversation while it runs
Great vid, thanks!
Wow you resemble Mark-Paul Gosselaar :) Great video, very informative
Just got 2 because of this video
When you wash the out sleeve, did you wash it on warm or cold water?
I got two 411s, and they are quiet at low and medium, but I doubt it's moving any air outside a 2 feet radius. On high it's like a jet engine. I returned it and got the 311 instead. These small fans get loud in order to move air. If you want a quiet unit that moves lots of air, you need a unit with a bigger fan. My 211 is very quiet at medium or even high and it moves so much more air.
Great video!! 👍👍I just got my!! I'm excited to use it! I definitely needed it for my nose! My allergies are getting bad because I moved to a different environment! But I saw. Video debunking the other competitors vs this and Blue is ways better and this beat Dyson air purifier !!
Same thing I just order big one I have nose eyes ellergy bother me all night
Did it help your allergies?
Well edited video. That said,:
1) I have 4 air purifiers in my home (Austin Air, IQAir, Aeris and Winix) and I run them 247. Having a sensor on the air purifier is NOT a good thing IMO - as that mode will provide fewer air exchanges for you in your room. You care about the quality of air going through your nose and mouth - NOT what is occurring at the air purifier location. By the time it realizes it needs to increase fan speed - your body has already ingested more contaminants than if the unit was continuously running on a higher fan speed and providing more air exchanges.
2) If you have musty smells in a room it is because you have relative humidity over 60% and you need a dehumidifier NOT an air purifier... I've sold both type of solutions for over 15 years.
3) People with real-world air purification industry experience do not look to Consumer Reports nor Wire Cutter as air purification testing experts.... nor as legit sources to pick the best purifiers.
if I'm not in that industry how should I make a decision with internet filled with people that only care about selling affiliate product and others are that doesn't even know how to use it and give 1 star rating?
The outlet end brick that plus into the wall, what is it rated 120 to 240v? I want to use it in the UK.
Did find it informative - Did like it.
Seems like a Good Product.
However, for me, the best part was at the end when You showed The Dust Magnet 🙂.
That would be something I would Definitely be interested in.
I don't know if it's just My house, but I find that even if I were to dust Every Day, the following day it looks as if it was a month since I dusted last !
I Will look forward to That Review 😊.
Thanks Tim,
JaneLee 🕊️ - in Suburban Philadelphia
We are excited about that product as well and will be reviewing it as soon as we can get our hands on one! As always, thanks for the kind words and for the comment!
@@6MonthsLater ;
You are Most Welcome, and Thanks for Replying to me 🙂,
JaneLee 🕊️
@@6MonthsLater any updates on reviewing that one? :D
We’ve had it for 2 months now, so look for a review out in June. So far so good! It’s a pretty cool device. The question we’re trying to figure out is, how much less dusting will you actually need to do with it.
@@6MonthsLater Thanks for the heads up! Kind of need to get a new purifier nowish so I have the same question as you which is whether that dustmagnet is particularly better at removing dust than a more standard purifier would be, even one of their own like the Pure 311. (Or is the "dust" emphasis just marketing gimmick essentially)
I have a Winix 5500-2 which is pretty awesome and reduces the surface accumulation of dust on surfaces by a lot but it's still above levels I would like. Even with two of them in the same room. So trying to see if blueair or Coway would be more effective than the Winix for this . Doesn't hurt that blue air has 20% off sale right now 👀
What an excellent content!👍😊
I have a dust mite allergy in my bedroom will this be big enough to deal with it
just ordered one my apartment is always bloody dusty from the main road i live on...how long is the power chord by the way?
How do you turnn off the automatic setting?
I have one...What you don't mention is that it's not HEPA certified and that it's not independently tested... That means that any claim the company makes is worthless
“ Unvelcro the power cord!” ??
How do I do that?
Do you have on video on unvelcroing power cords?
Great video, went into more detail and put emphasis on 3rd party sources. Only thing is that I'm a bit worried about the electrostatic part - that necessarily creates ozone (which is poisonous) as a byproduct, and is often complained about on other Blueair products. The one thing I wanted to know here is, what level is this one creating, because on the website it claims 0.05ppb (which is insanely low), and none of the reviews I've found have smelled the ozone with the Auto, unlike the regular 411 model, so I'm curious if it even has an electrostatic component at all?
Ozone is very minuscule and the amount emitted is not enough to cause harm.
Ozone isnt harmful. Its the fresh feeling air you get at the beach or after a thunderstorm.
@@pheart2381higher amounts of ozone over a long period of time IS harmful, and some air purifiers create it.
Can I order filter over the phone? I couldn't find phone numbers.
Filter only order online?
Thanks, Can you clean the pre filter by hand with a little dish soap and
what approx intervals mine is in a small room where I smoke 3
cigarettes during the time I'm there
You could totally do that or just throw it in a washing machine. And I typically clean mine once I have to change the main filter…though I may not be changing it enough. In your situation you might need to wash it a bit more often if you’re smoking close to it. Hope that helps. - Josh
ok i have a small apartment room ineed will this help i dont know the dimensions of my room, but the air shark covers about 700, and it doesnt get ridd of odor D: gonna return it for a better air purfier
Where can I buyght
Do blueair purifiers obit ozone?
Wow. This is excellent work. Only thing I wish I could hear is a few sentences on how breathing purified air helps you out.
Thanks for the feedback, we'll make sure to cover that topic in any future air purifier reviews we do.
Huh? It's obviously better than breathing dust. Personally, I think It's more for people with a big PC that attracts a lot of dust or pet dander or even smoking weed
Apparently common sense is not that common still.
QUESTION: I’ve had my Blueair 311 Auto for a week now and I keep it on Auto mode 24/7. The LED has never changed from blue, even when changing my bedding, running fans, burning a candle nearby, etc. The air flow from the top of the unit is constant as it should be. Is it working correctly? Just weird that it’s always indicating my air is good.
That's not that uncommon, I've seen several other owners remarking on that. You may just have good ventilation. If you put it in your kitchen when pan frying something with olive oil, my guess would be that you would then see the fan speed ramp up. - Josh
did they make the holes smaller? kids can put their fingers in the holes
Lots of marijuana smell in our apartment bedroom from neighbors.Will this help???
I saw some reviews that when you set the air purifier on night mode it creates a rattle sound did you experience that too?
Not on our unit
@@6MonthsLater Aight thanks. Weird then that are many reviews saying it has that sound on night mode. Will be testing myself then.
Can't get the red light to quit after changing the filter on my 411+Auto and holding for 30 seconds? Now what?
Yep Xiaomi and BlueAir is very nice Air Purifier.
i need air purfier that gets ridd of odor and helps protect from virsus
I like this thing. God send. My cat smells neutral. Lol
That carbon filter can work miracles
BlueAir's marketing is misleading. Their patented HEPASilent technology (5:09) is in their high-end models and involves high-voltage electrodes at the air inlet side. The affordable Pure product line uses non-HEPA-grade filters and you won't find any documentation on their website about the performance of these filters.
That said, non-HEPA filters are better than true HEPA for this application, since it moves more volume of air for the same amount of electricity and noise. With HEPA, the 99.97%-filtered output will be mixed with dirty air right at the purifier outlet, so the end result is actually worse than with an 85%-filtered output at a higher volume rate.
The website says that the Blueair Pure line does use HEPASilent. Not sure what you’re talking about.
Yeah pretty sure he doesn't know what he is talking baiting either. Sometimes people just ramble on to ramble on.
I have the auto 411, I believe it does not have any electro static, ozone. It’s just a fan, filter and sensor. I agree that the manufacture is misleading perhaps because of all the different models.
Does this help catch allergens? Dust mites & pet dander for example
I’m wondering also especially for dust mites
oh my gosh. one little LED and people can't sleep with it on. How ridiculous. The light is not that bright.
lol. All I did was put a black Post-It over the light. I do that with all my electronics. 😆
Does anyone know if this produces ANY ozone as a byproduct? I'm interested in only ozone-free.
I go this from another site
"The HEPASilent technology used by Blueair air purifiers produces small amounts of Ozone continuously. All Blueair Air Purifiers that have the HEPASilent technology therefore will produce small amounts of Ozone. We must mention here however that all Blueair Air Purifiers produce Ozone that is well within safety limits as prescribed by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) as well as the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)."
I've been looking at the Blueair Blue Pure 411 Auto Small Room Air Purifier, this is for a small room and getting rid of cigarette odor "I smoke 3 to 4 cigarettes a day" can you possibly let me know if this Blueair will keep my room odor free, I found the price reasonable and with the charcoal filter + Hepa should do the trick your input would much appreciated..Thanks
Check this out ~@3:13. Note though that BlueAir does not have real HEPA filters they use their own technology and call it SilentHEPA. So it might be that this particular air purifier won't help with what you want ruclips.net/video/VidZMqmTgJQ/видео.html
Not really help with odor, cooking smell etc. I have 3 units so is no mistake. Doesnt work with odor
@@Helmut_1963 Does it help with cleaning the air for people with dust allergy and pollen/hayfever problems ?
It has no HEPA filter, this is why it fails to perform well in certain tests overall.
But it said use hepa silent technic filter, I actually confused
@Rananh90 it's marketing....not a true Hepa filter.
does this get ridd of odor?
Yes, any air purifier with an activated charcoal or carbon filter will do this.
@@6MonthsLater i have the air shark purfier 6 fans, and it doesnt seem to get ridd of odor, ....
but does blueair have a purfier where it blows air into my face? or do they only have strickly for purfiying air and no fan blowing, its a shame because they tell me at best buy this is the best brand to get when it comes to air purfiying , but i need one like this that blows air in my face D:
It won’t blow air in your face like a true fan, for that you would need a fan/air purifier combo type of device.
Tsk tsk, this video is obviously a paid advertisement. Shame on you. That being said, this unit is pretty nice -- looks great, low cost of entry, performs well based on independent lab tests. Some cons -- high cost of ownership. The replacement filters are pricier than others and are every 6 months. Also, there are complaints from customers that the 411's AC adapter fails and starts making clicking or electric arcing sounds after a few years. They have a very generous warranty (I think 5 years if you register your product?) so they will replace it, but that's annoying -- if it fails fast under warranty it will obviously fail fast after the warranty has expired. I expect an air purifier to last something like 15 or 20 years, but maybe I'm just old school that way.
Nope. Just bought one and tested using Atmotube Pro
1. Auto detection of pollution doesn't work at all
2. I was not able to drastically decrease VOC - something wrong with filters
3. Moderate decreasing in PM1, PM2.5 and PM10, but not enough
PS:
I'm traveling and in current house very bad air - carpets, I think. I bought BlueAir 411 Auto to have a clear air in one bedroom - not huge at all, almost all the time I'm keeping door closed and just trying to have opened windows for a fresh air (helps better than this air purifier). BlueAir 411 Auto - just a scam. Very disappointed :(
If you have any recommendations for a compact air purifier, please leave it in comments
🤗👍🏿👍🏿🤗
Was suppose to filter out cat dander but then my cat use it as a scratching post. Bad design.
Ummm... That LED is not bright or very big, thats a pretty ridiculous downside. Just turn the device so the LED is not facing you if your so annoyed by it? This was one big commercial... Show us your filter after 6mo or something...
I have one of these and it’s surprisingly bright in a dark room at night. Even turned away.
CN this remove viruses such as covid
The BlueAir looks very attractive, but I really don't care for the fact that everything collected would be on the very outside of the fabric prefilter.
The reason why that's a plus is because you don't have to take the appliance apart to clean the pre-filter. All you do is vacuum the outside and you're done.
@@Zack-fu8sn Or just throw it in the washer.
Dyson purifiers are way MUCH BETTER especially the sensors parts compared to Blue Air Auto ones. I have both at the moment . I think I will stick to Dysons . Unless the one I got is defective or not that sensitive to pollutants . I just got the blue air 211+ auto from Amazon yesterday, and decided to place it in my kitchen/livingroom area and it is not ramping up the fan speed while cooking, on the other hand Dyson HP09 which is located in the bedroom has detected that air quality is not ideal and started to ramp up the speed of its fan. I guess the hype about BlueAir air purifiers being better than other brands is not based on a customer experience .
CBC did an interesting comparison you may enjoy
CBC found Dyson to be the worst-performing bro..
@@santino1548 I disagree, I have both in my house and Dyson is more intelligent detecting all the allergens and bad odors way much better than the other " winner" brand as in the report.
Dyson is one of the worst performing purifiers. You can look on any other site besides Dyson and you will see the same results. They are overpriced and don't work.
@@joshuaainsworth5440 I have to disagree, Dyson purifier can detect almost all the pollutants in my room, from a distance. I'm talking from an experience since I have both brands in my household.
This is dangerous for parrots and pet birds and possibly other pets also. Probably even bad for humans also. I would avoid this product.

HarHar recently made headlines for being the first person to poke and prod their air purifier out of an obsessive need to find faults, to the point that he was actually sucked into his machine. Sadly he was found unresponsive by his parakeet the next day. His birds were relocated to local fostering parents, so that’s good news!
