We bought this as a 2nd one for our house. It’s amazing how much dust & stuff floats around. Put this one in our bedroom hoping for better sleep.

It’s very quite & easy to operate. When I sprayed some hair spray – about 15ft away – the red light came on to denote the air needed cleaning. That amazed me! In a short time, the air was clear & no more red light. Doesn’t take much to entertain me! Now, I constantly watch the purifier to see what color it is.

I bought this air purifier to use in my wife’s home office, to help alleviate her allergy symptoms. After one month of use, it seems to be doing the job. Her use of tissues has dropped significantly.
The unit is quiet on low and medium speeds. High speed is louder, as expected.
The Auto feature works well. When my neighbor starts their truck, some exhaust enters my house, and the unit ramps up to high.
At night, the unit changes to sleep mode, dimming the displays.
Overall, I recommend this Winix.

I dont think it did as described. It was more like a fan and cooled the room with the furnace running which made the furnace run more. It does use alot of electricity and if the blue like gets something on it, it then smells and smokes. I didnt trust that it wouldnt catch on fire. So i retired it. I wouldnt recommend it.

I am amazed how well this works. I have 4 of these at home and it makes a huge difference. They are very quiet, filters last a long time (I clean pre-screen regularly and change yearly). Having 3 dogs and hardwood floors throughout the house, these really keep dust and hair very low while leaving air very fresh. I am an allergy sufferer and these have been very helpful.

For someone that doesn’t like a lot of maintenance, this is a good option.
NLML –
This really works! It’s very quiet and easy to work.
Nicholas –
Fantastic purifier! I also bought one for my Mom who has breathing problems, and she absolutely loves it.
Seether8707 –
Awesome unit and makes the air much cleaner! Not too loud either
Ulrike –
I was looking for three things in an air cleaner:
1) Availability (ordered Nov 17, delivered Nov 22).
2) AHAM certification.
3) Affordability.
This product checked all three boxes. It runs very quiet. It’s almost impossible to hear at the lowest speed. You can definitely hear it when it’s on high, but that’s to be expected.
The sensor seems to be accurate. It tends to go yellow if I’m cooking and a bit of food hits a heating element on the stove or oven. I sprayed Windex on the glass door right next to the unit this week, and the sensor noticed immediately.
Devon –
Excellent replacement for the older model. Significantly quieter and the light is not distracting with the night mode.
Prince –
Good air purifier and the sensor helps determine when higher setting is needed.
Welshdad –
Very easy to use. Plug in and turn on. This is the same unit used by my wife’s school district in every classroom since COVID, so it might have been verified as a good filter but it is not warranted as a medical device so don’t rely on it as a safeguard, just as a good air cleaner for dust particles, which is how it is advertised.
Mymarshall –
The best air purifier ever… would recommend this to anyone

Have had several of these units running throughout my home now since August. I live in the desert and we are on a farm. There is a lot of dust, pollen and dirt. These units work very well and have cut down on the amount of dust I have in my home tremendously. I love them and when I finish building my studio I plan on getting a couple of more for in there.

I have a gas heat in my house & things get a little dusty, so I bought this small air purifier for my bedroom. I turn it on a few hours before going to bed. The air seems cleaner & I do breathe easier so it serves the purpose for which I purchased it. I like it but I one criticism: the On/Off Button is not illuminated. If fact, none of the buttons are though parts of the panel are. That aside, it is a good machine.
Pele –
This was an excellent buy it does everything we need it to do and is great deal
Replacement –
Makes the air quality better than no purifier at all. I noticed a difference right away
newpcbuilder –
Very quiet and works very well. I highly recommend this brand. Definitely better air quality in my apartment from a year ago.
Cleanair –
Love it. No more stuffy nose and coughing at night. Air is much cleaner. I live in a condo with the freeway nearby so it gets dusty. Wish I bought it earlier at the start of covid
htbiddie –
Does a good job filtering cat hair from the air. Quiet running . I like the controls. Easy to set up. Does a great job.
LoveMyLaptop –
This is my second purchase of this same product because I love it so much. Really appreciate the color display for air quality. Thanks to this product I’m breathing easier even with allergies – my dog has allergies as well and his breathing is clear plus he seems so much more comfortable, less stress for both of us, if I had more rooms I’d buy another one!
Micahel –
I have had two of these units, both failed about a year or so in. They start making an awful rurring sound that I could not put up with.
Smile –
Good product will recommend it to anyone. Last over 2 years and counting
Hattyhb –
Great air purifier. Family member recommended and I am not disappointed. Pulls in air quickly and releases a nice output breeze. Comes with all filters needed for lengthy duration. Solid design.
Tonybaloney –
This air purifier really fits the bill! What a difference!
Scott –
Been running for nearly 2 years. With regular maintenance, it catches so much dust and other allergens. Filters are aslo fairly cheap and go on sale regularly.
Alex –
Does the job very well, filter lasts for a good time. Love the automatic feature. Decent price. Wish the design was more nicer:)
JayN –
We researched best air purifier and ended up purchasing Winix. The purifier stopped working after 2 years (out of warranty). Do not recommend unless you enjoy throwing money away as we are also now left with unused filters. Suggest going with other brands. We purchased smaller units from a different brand and they worked better and hasn’t given us any issues (knock on wood). Hope this helps.
JoannaM –
It’s such an easy product to use. I love that you can just leave it on for up to 8 hours and it purifies the air. You can see it turn from red to blue, which I’m assuming it’s doing its job! Will need to purchase one for upstairs!
jess –
I’ve own a couple of these for ~6 years and just purchased a couple more for my new house. Old ones still work well but seems like the newer ones are a bit better. They make the air noticeably fresher and filter out any smells, dust, animal dander that accumulates. Ofc nothing replaces cleaning. If your space is particularly dusty or Smokey or something like that you probably have to change the filter more often.
CFINE –
So good I bought two. Also, suggested to my friend, she bought two. Work great
Curt –
I had read several positive reviews about this product and all I can say is that were ALL right! I can literally smell a difference in the air when it has finished cycling from red (poor air quality) to blue (excellent air quality).
Glowing review here!!
Happy –
I love my air purfier and i would definitely recommend to anyone whos skeptical
Perfect –
This is the best air purifier I have had, so I bought a second one, easy to use and clean
Filters air wonderfuly
Kirby –
We love this air purifier! It is whisper quiet and does an excellent job. I don’t use the PlasmaWave feature often, but I like that it produces both positive and negative ions. I am very happy that no ozone is produced.
sengles –
Great product to keep the air in my children’s room clean and safe.
Ilovemydog12 –
works great we have it in the family room, clean air is what its all about
Samsung821 –
I have had this model for maybe over 5 years. Usually keep it in the living room and the Dyson in the bedroom. The Dyson has never reported clean air in my bedroom so I swapped them. Winix could clean my bedroom air but not the Dyson when the Dyson was 2x the price
user336565 –
I’ve had one running non stop for two years. Vacuum the filters once a week and change out the carbon filters as scheduled.
Dtomm –
Great recommendation from my Uncle! purchased 2, I’m in a condo, so far it’s great!
Rocky –
Simply does what it needs to do. Quality improvement of the air that I breath. Seen an improvement in how I sleep as well with this unit. A must buy
Baker –
I quite enjoy this air purifier. I think it works quite well. I especially like the auto feature as well as the Bi-filters.
EfrenS –
Definitely one of the better air purifiers I’ve tried. I brought 2 about 3 weeks ago and it has done a great job at keeping my room and kitchen dust/odor free. Also it comes with everything you need for it to last a whole year.
RogelioQ –
Have two cats and a dog.
Was getting fed up with all the pet dander. Was looking for a no frills air purifier that does what it says. Nothing fancy just a good air purifier at a decent price. Replacement filters are easy to find and cheap.
Matthew –
HUGE RED FLAG. this machine beeps an incredibly irritating sound when it turns on or off. there is no way to stop this. i’ve called them. the beeping when the machine goes off, if on a timer, will wake you up if you’re sleeping. why on earth anyone would design a machine to beep to SIX TIMES when it goes off? i cannot for the life of me understand. stay away from all winix products as they ALL do this and it cannot be fixed.
Ismael –
Love to just move it around so it can catch all the sust particles in my room
ColinO –
works great — exactly as described. Highly recommend.
Jennie –
Very pleased with this air purifier- I am able to feel a big difference in breathing, especially at night!
SergioE –
This thing is awesome, I have 4 dogs, 3 of which are large and 1 small dog. My room is clear of dandruff so long as a sweep it every other day. Before I would have dust and hair everywhere. Vaccume the filter for a longer last. It’s a cleaning buddy not a robot.
