So out of the box it looks great, it could be part of wireless speaker system. The unit feels solid and well made, with 2 handy carry handles.You can just simply turn the unit on & adjust the speed in manual mode, but it's definitely worth reading the manual! For example, do not expect the filter to work effectively if all the doors and windows are open. It is very quiet on low, about as loud as a fridge when running on full (which doubt will be very often). To get full functionality you will need to download the app. I had to hunt around about for the app on Apple store (not sure about Google store), it's called 'AEG Wellbeing'. Maybe could use a QR code on box?Once downloaded, connecting everything up via Wifi is easy (you will need to create a basic account).The App is pretty intuitive. You get a 7 day x 24 hour timer so can clean the air while asleep or at work if required. You can also see full hour by hour display of air quality and humidity in home. The filter can be vacuumed but will eventually need replacing. I'm unsure of life, but guess it really depends on how polluted you house is. The filter life is displayed on app, it's been running for 2 weeks and still on 100% so hoping its ages until I have to get a new filter. Auto mode normally uses PM2.5s (from Diesel cars, wood smoke, etc.) to drive fan speed. The sensors are very sensitive, normally mine runs on green (good air) but if you start cooking it quickly goes amber and ramps up the fan speed to increase air scrubbing.It also appears to be very handy to remove odours (and VOCs?) from decorating or cleaning. The app also gives you hourly totals for reduction in all the various items the unit can cope with (e.g. PM2.5, PM10 and volatile organic compounds).Overall, it seems to be doing a solid job of cleaning air in house. It's not quite the season yet, but wife gets bad hay fever so hoping this can really reduce pollen inside.

AEG are a brand that is known for its quality in its products and this air purifier is no exception. After considering other brands and looking at the air purifiers that are on sale the AEG air purifier seems to be perfect for what I needed.There are many other brands that do the same and that a similar price but for me the build quality really does shine against the other brands the only disappointing thing for me is that this product was made in China and not Germany.Been my very first air purifier I am very happy with this product not only is it very stylish but also is very quiet and was noticeable when the product has been working that the air does smell cleaner the app what's easy to connect and you can monitor the air quality in your property which was really good.I can't highly recommend this product not only for its Style and it's build quality but also for the product in general as someone one who doesn't usually purchase AG products I'm very pleased on this occasion I did and I'm very glad I didn't purchase the Philips or Dyson air purifier as the build quality is nowhere near the superior as the AEG product.The only other complaint I do have have I got the filters are very very expensive and possibly could need replacing after only one year and products being made in China apart from that I would highly recommend this product to anyone one who has allergens like myself that wants clean career in their property also by a brand you can trust.

The Air Purifier is very good and has improved the air quality in a large open plan room very significantly. It is also very quiet - which is an added benefit! Very easy to set up and operate. AO delivered the unit a couple of days ahead of time. Thank You!!

A waste of money I wish I hadn’t ordered it it is very big it takes up a lot of room and I am not seeing any benefits from it . Well we all learn from our mistakes.

Noticed a difference straight away, great looking , low noise would highly recommend

It does everything AEG says it will plus it looks good. It is exceptionally quiet in operation. The particles in my bedroom are reduced to zero even with the door open. The Wellbeing App is great, but takes a long time to load every time it is opened.

Seems powerful and can be silent when in Smart mode, which I like. It’s a bit bulky, hence why I removed a star, but overall it’s very easy to use. I would have loved if it had a cover on top for when not in use. I need to improvise something to protect against my toddler.

good and quiet, but useless app as it doesn't work well with Google Home. And not at all with Alexa.
