BLACK+DECKER BXAP62001GB Desktop Air Purifier with Air Quality Sensor, 8 Hour Timer, White

I was very impressed with the look and feel but I return the fan due to the high noise the motor produced.

The three fan speeds go from very low to low to 'high' (& quite noisy) - a pity there's not a medium speed. The only manual speed selection is 'high', apart from that it's either auto or sleep mode. The timer is limited to stopping after 2, 4 or 8hrs and it's a pity there's not the ability to set it to start as well as stop. A bit on the bulky side - could do with castors.

I use it on my work desk. It’s often dusty there as I’m either grinding something or filing something and this fan is nice for keeping the air moving and doing a lovely job of filtering the immediate area. Good price. I like that it’s a fan -and- filter.

I got this as needed a fan in the night .Its personnel does not bither anyone else quieter than my old larger fan .Also a room purifier.I took it on holiday with me its great.

Heated up my room uv light doesn't work noise is not advertised quality terrible didn't fix my alagies.

This is a review for the desktop air purifier, which is the small and compact version, about the length of a forearm. We have seen little purifiers like this used at the orthodontics and at an independent coffee shop.• Room Size:It is ideal for rooms "upto 14m²" - it says so quite blatantly on the box, so reviews mentioning otherwise haven't looked well enough into the area size. Which makes the right size to work in a medium sized kitchen of around 7m by 7m.• There are four modes:High, Low, Sleep and Automatic.There is a built in 8 hour timer which is adjustable within that timeframe.The Sleep mode is a clever idea on this unit, the noise output is decreased in this mode, the speed is automatically lowered and the light-up display is dimmed enough to not effect the quality of sleep for a light sleeper.• The Filter:The filter is huge for the size of the unit, this is a good thing as it achieves it's maximum output in a compact footprint. It's a three step filter which has separate filtrations for odours, bacteria and human/animal dander. It has a 2200 hour lifespan before it needs changing. That's 91 full days of continual use. I would have preferred a spare included or at least a filter that would last longer. As this a new to market product, i'm not able to find the cost of replacement filters yet. Im sure that will come into fruition soon.If you cook a lot like us, the purifier works extremely well at removing the odours that come along with strong foods such as frying onions, cooking mackerel or making curries. You'll notice a considerable effect the following morning compared to when you cook the same dish without a purifier. We keep it on Automatic Mode now so that it detectsair quality all the time, turning itself on when it requires it.This isn't our first purifier, but now I can't live without them. We have an expevice one set up in our older period lounge, where the walls do let in moisture and the room used to smell musky. But using the other one for two months has all but eliminated the smell, it now smells like the rest of the newer part of the home.If you have seasonal allergies, such as pollen sensitivity, this unit, with the doors and windows shut, makes such a difference to symptoms that the sufferer has not had to take anti-allergy meds whilst he's been at home.it's a cute little unit that doesn't hide the fact that it's a purifier like some i've seen.4 stars

Great item

Good Idea but wish was quieter.
