IQAir Atem Desk White Portable Air Purifier – German-Crafted, Superior Virus & Pollutant Filtration, Compact Design for Home & Office

My wife and I have been using the Atem X for over a month now, and this has been a real game changer. The performance has been outstanding it really makes a noticeable difference in the air quality, keeping our home feeling fresh and clean throughout the day. Other purifiers have a common issue that it is disturbing to sleep with the noise and lights blinking but Atem X gives an option to tweak the fan speed thus making it completely silent and dim the lights too, which makes it stand out from others. One of the things we both love is how easy it is to control. We can adjust everything through our phones, monitor the air quality in real-time, even when we're out of the house, which is super convenient. The design is something we really love. It has a modern look that fits in perfectly with our decor, and we especially appreciate how the control panel is subtle and doesn’t dominate the design. It's clear that a lot of thought went into both its functionality and appearance. It blends in so well that you hardly notice it's there, which adds to the overall stylish vibe of the room. Overall, we are really pleased with how well it works, how it looks, and how it's made our home feel more comfortable.

Have been using this air purifier now continuously for just over 3 months. Bought it here in Dubai where air pollution is a constant concern. Like the design. Unit is very quiet. I typically run it on the speed 3-5, where it is very quiet. Highest fan speed 8 makes a noticeable sound, but is only necessary when I cook. Filter life is at 82%, so I expect to have to replace my filter after about 16 months. Happy with the purchase.

I have used IQAir purifiers for over 10 years and was a little sceptical about how this unit would stack up against their beefy older models. The Atem X is a substantial air purifier with about 65 cm in diameter, but I found that because it is only about 20 cm deep, I am able to place it nearly anywhere in a room. What's cool is that the airflow can be adjusted in direction by rotating the unit, which allows me to avoid a draft, while running the unit on a high fan speed. The unit is very quiet when compared to my older air purifiers. There are not obvious lights and control pads on the unit. The unit works well with the IQAir app and allows me to see my air quality over time. One item that could be improved is the carrying handle, which makes makes moving the unit from room to room not very comfortable. On the upside, the unit comes with a wheel plate to roll the unit.

This is by far the best air purifier I've bought. It is quite expensive but, I'm a strong believer in getting what you pay for. The app is good, I like how it shows a percentage of remaining filter life. I purchased it last December and am now just changing the filters on it(It was still reading 18% on the app, but i decided to change them anyway).Filter replacements are around $300 cdn, so keep that in mind before you purchase one. My only complaint is that there are no charcoal pre-filters for odor reduction. I also ran it pretty much nonstop for a year at medium to high levels so the filters do have good life span. 5 stars

There are two aspects to the "XE" purifier: 1) the actual mechanical unit and it's purifying abilities, and 2) the app control.1) The air purifying capabilities of this is incredible. We've used cheap air purifiers before and never noticed much improvement. That all changed when we got the HealthPro XE. The quality of the air in the house changed dramatically. Crystal clear. Within hours the "old house smell" was completely eliminated. Pet orders gone. And using an air quality meter confirms that the particles in the air across multiple sizes are pretty much completely eliminated. I was surprised at how quiet it is for it's effectiveness. At first I was skeptical that it would do much given the low velocity of the air coming out of it, but I was wrong. Absolutely incredible, and I am absolutely looking for an excuse to buy another one.2) The app control works fine, shows indoor vs outdoor air quality, let's you setup schedules or use the "balanced" mode which automatically detects air quality and adjusts fan speed accordingly. We found that balanced mode does not work for orders, though as these are no necessarily particles. With balanced mode, it will keep the fan fairly low and only occasionally increase the speed when we cook something, for example. But with the lower speed, odors are more noticable in the air, even though we've confirmed that the PM1, 2.5, and 10 are all at zero ppm. So, we tend to just keep it at a higher fan speed at all times to get the full effect of mountain fresh, crystal clear air.Ok, maybe I'm being a tad hyperbolic. The air coming from the purifier isn't quite the same as fresh mountain air. It does have a slight oder from the filters themselves. Hard to describe...kind of like a clinical smell you'd find in a hospital where these are used. But it's not offensive, and overall the air quality is noticably better / different than without using it.Only downside is that the app doesn't seem to connect to the device when not connected to the same WiFi network. E.g., I can't turn the purifier on/off when away from the house. It'd be great if we had remote control over the Internet instead of just the local network.I think every house and apartment should have one of these to improve air quality. Seriously, if you can afford it, don't look any further. You will not regret it.

Purchased this to improve the air quality in my dusty home office close to oil refineries that I've been forced to work in since to covid. Made a huge difference in concentration, headache, sore throat, etc that the poor air quality was causing. I have multiple chemical sensitivities and have tried several other mid to high priced air purifiers (Austin air, aller air, winix, Honeywell insight, levolt) and the IQ air purifier is the best so far. I'm sold on iq air and will be purchasing the Health pro plus for the rest of my condo.There was a very strong chemical smell that thankfully went away after one day of running the atem on high.The Bluetooth app is great and the base is stable and made of high quality material. Not sure why other reviews said otherwise.Definitely recommend this product.

The purifier looks good and comes ready to use out of the box. No need to install the filters like in other models.Pairing the unit with the phone app was easy, instructions were clear.The app is well designed and intuitive, easy to use, made configuring the unit a breeze.The unit has a quite mode of operation which is very useful if the unit is located near you or if the room is on the small side - this takes care of your ears by not raising the motor power too high!I took a star due to some features missing from the app: although the unit measures the content of PM2.5 and CO2 continously, it does not allow to program the unit to turn on if one of those parameters goes outside a threshold, and to turn it off when the air gets clean enough. This means you still need to use some external logic and devices if you care to have the air purifier turned on when the air gets dirty without having to keep the unit on at all times (just using up the filter for nothing). I am surprised this feature is missing, cheaper brands have been offering it for 5 years or more!Also, even if this model has a wired network option, the option is not shown either on Amazon or on the manufacturer's own website! This is important for people who don't have a wifi network or who don't want to keep one turned on everywhere.All in all, this a very new and welcome addition to IQair's air purifiers portfolio, pushing them forward in the modern world of intelligent devices (those using thier other air purifier products like the bigger HealthPro line understand what I mean).

I own two IQAir Health Mate Pros, which are the most effective air cleaners available, but a little bulky for trying to take on an airplane. When this came out, I had to give it a try. Happy to say that I've traveled with it three times, just packed in a bag, and it has given me blissful sleep on the pillows, sheets, and mattresses where I was staying.You need to set this up close to your head. It's not meant to clean the room, but to produce a zone of clean air around your head. On the highest of the three settings, it's audible, but that's about all. On the two lower settings the sound is barely noticeable.The quirks: (it wouldn't be IQAir without quirks) First, you plug the cord into the side of the unit and into the wall. You may need an extension cord in some hotel rooms, to run the power from the outlet to your face. The cord is reasonably long, but for some hotel rooms may just not be long enough. So bring an extension cord.The stand is actually cool. But, when you attach the disc-shaped unit to the stand, it doesn't really CLICK into place. Rather, it SLIPS into place. Result: If you try to pick up and move the unit, the stand may fall off. It'd be nice if it had some kind of positive attachment to the lozenge.I have no idea, obviously, how long the filter will last. I do know that I'm really glad to have this, and believe it will open up a world of travel that I thought I had lost.Edit: After a few months of ownership, I decided to try using this in my bedroom, every night, to help me sleep. The good news is that it works as well at home as it did in a hotel room. The bad news is that the filters don't last long at all. I run it on the highest speed, 3, for about 8 hours each night, and after about a month I'm starting to clog up and wake up coughing. Nor is it a slow decline. Rather, one night I'm fine, one night I struggle, and then it's hopeless. Too bad. But if you look at the filters you can see that they are rather small, without much surface area, and so it's no surprise that they fill up quickly.Once again, others whose allergies are somewhat less savage than mine may get more out of each filter. But this will be my travel filter rather than every day. I will not reduce the rating, because this was an unknown rather than an expectation, and this will still be the ultimate travel air purifier. But if you use it for travel, you may want to track the number of hours use, and when you get near to 250, swap it out if you're about to go on the road.Edit #2: The really interestingly-shaped filter sits inside this thing wrapped around the top and the back side, which I realized might cause problems with filter longevity. Why? Because dust can settle out of the air directly onto the filter, by traveling down. Unlike the big tall house-sized units that I also reviewed. So I started putting a plastic bag over the unit when not in use.Good news! Doing this about doubles the filter life for me. Going from one month to two months per filter is definitely worth it, given that all I do is put a trash bag over the thing. It still costs me about a dollar a night, but my sleep is so much better that it's worth it.Edit #3: After about a year of use I noticed that filter life was starting to tank. When you change a filter, you'll notice a second, smaller lift-off cover that has a little curved piece of styrofoam under it. This is the muffler, to reduce the already miniscule amount of sound the unit produces. Trying to clean this made it worse, but removing it entirely resolved the problem, and the unit is barely louder. So you may want to consider ditching this. It doesn't seem to be a replacement part, but I plan to go to the hardware store, buy matching foam, and cut out a replacement. I'll let you know.
