Dust, mold, pollen, bacteria, viruses, smoke, smog, the smell of your burnt toast. The air is gross these days. And if you're lucky enough to have $900 to spend on a fancy, WiFi connected air filter, you can save your lungs some stress. And if you're lungs are hurting and you don't want to get up to adjust the settings on your air filter, you can do it from an app on your phone or even tell Alexa to put your purifier in auto mode so you can catch that much needed breath of fresh air.
What could happen if something goes wrong?
Probably not a lot will go wrong with this smart air purifier, we hope. Blueair does say they may share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes, which isn't great. All-in-all, you're probably pretty safe using this connected air purifier. Good for your lungs and your peace of mind.
