Kogan SmarterHome 5-Stage 3S

Decent filter – I have had one of these for a few years now. I'm fairly happy with it. It definitely helps clean the air, although the recent batch of filters aren't exactly leak tight in the unit, so some air can sneak around. Probably not a major issue. At max speed it can help keep the air of a large room (lounge room) pretty clear, but it is noisy. At the… Read more

lower speeds it could be considered as "useful" in such sized rooms - probably ideal for a bedroom if you have the space.

I haven't used any of the WiFi internet smarts with it, mostly because I didn't see the benefit.

The pollution level read out is useful.

I bought one when Kogan first put them up for pre-orders, so a few years now, and it operates at least 12hrs a day. No unusual noises from the fan bearings so far. When the filter light flashes and I replace the filter, there is a noticeable improvement in the air quality (I have pets) which is clearly the fresh Activated Carbon filter doing its job of taking out the volatile "scent" chemicals in the air.

Every now and then I run the vacuum cleaner over the pre screen filter to remove the collected dust, pet hairs and detritus.

When I position it near my central heating air return (located at the floor) and run the central heating on fan only and the filter on max speed, it helps freshen up the air in the whole house - useful during winter when you don't want to open up windows and doors to air the house out.

The Perfect Air Purifier! – The Air Purifier is quiet when running on all the modes, the turbo mode (required when purification of air is required as soon as possible) is a bit loud, but that other than that the efficiency of the appliance is very reliable, so the air quality can easily be monitored and made better depending on requirements Show details

Reliable Quiet and Efficient – I installed this air purifier in my bedroom 22 months ago. It runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I have replaced the filter kit 3 times. It keeps the air fresh and occasionally ramps up for a few minutes when it encounters something in the air. Works perfectly with Alexa and filters are affordable and easy to change. The only downside is the… Read more

very bright Green LED Display that lights up the whole room at night. I fixed this by taping a red filter over the display. I can now still easily read it and it throws no light.

I would recommend this air purifier.

UPDATE: Almost 4 years since purchase and it still works like a charm. Filters still available for purchase.

Improved my families way of life – The product does what is designed to do! Its simplistic design and operation are great for non-technical people. The product has helped my family with hayfever in the morning and any airborne allergens like dust. Running it when your cleaning or tidying around the house make a massive difference. There is a technical aspect of where you can… Read more

connect to Alexa and Google home environment. Which require a bit of setting up through an online tutorial. The manual provided at the time isn’t up to date and doesn’t provide a clear illustration. I just settled with the Kogan Smart app which is simple to set up and great when you have multiple Kogan smart products. Yet again the manual provided isn’t updated for clarity when setting up the smart feature but there is enough information to enable the connection with your smartphone.

Taking the time to clean the filter monthly helps prolong the filter and allow for better airflow through the unit. It is recommended to replace the filter every 6 months but depending on how often you run the unit and clean the filter you can stretch the duration, of course, this depends on every individual use case. Something small to bear in mind, if you were to move the unit around the filter tends to move away from its current position and the air that normally goes through the filter ends up going around it. So after moving or cleaning the unit just double check to see if the filter is back in its position.

Overall it's a great product and being that good! I went and ordered 4 more units for my family.
