Customer Ratings & Reviews

Took this out of the box, plugged in and turned on. It worked. You have to love the simplicity in this complicated world. The “buttons” on the top are easy to understand and navigate. There is a small light in the front that goes from blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Blue means the air is excellent air quality while red is very polluted. Was pleased to see it was blue in my home. I’ll keep using the Blueair purifier to keep it that way! I find fans and air purifiers can be noisy. The Blueair Blue Pure model is pretty quiet. On the lowest and second lowest speeds I forget it’s on, it’s so quiet. At the third and fourth (highest) speeds you can hear it running but it is not annoying. I plan to keep this in my bedroom and run on the second or third speed. Like most items today there is an app. I was pleasantly surprised by the information available in the app. For example, it told me my fan speed was 70% (3rd speed choice). The app also provides information about the air quality outside. A filter status is displayed in the app so you can for filter replacements. Finally, you can schedule times for the Blueair to run, including fan speed. In addition to its being pretty quiet I like the aesthetics. It’s unobtrusive, so even though it’s in the room it’s not the center of attention. As it gets pretty warm where I live I appreciate the air being blown out of the unit is cool.

I want to start by saying that the Blue Pure 211i Max is not my first Blueair. 2 years ago I bought a Blueair - Classic 605 Smart Console 775 Sq and never looked back. We were able to instantly feel the difference in air quality in our home and our allergy suffering went down significantly. When I saw that Blueair has started making sexy looking models that fit within any décor I decided to pull the trigger on the Blue Pure 211i Max since I needed a new purifier for the living space. The great thing about the Blue Pure 211i Max is that you can set it to automatic and forget about it, it will automatically set fan rpm based on need or air quality, it stays silent at night and you can actually almost not realize its running unless the air quality is bad. the app is as easy and well built as they come. a lot of information to see and its a great option if you have pets at home while you are out. also, the Blue Pure 211i Max looks like a Google home mini but big, with the white color and the nice fabric body that actually covers the filter. the great thing is that those fabric covers come in many different colors to fit your style. I guess this is a home run for Blueair, well designed, wonderfully equipped and correctly priced product.

The Blueair - Blue Pure 211i Max is an exceptional air purifier designed for extra-large rooms up to 635 square feet. I was very much excited to get my hands on this product and put it to the test, as I have a large open concept living space that often feels stuffy and uncomfortable specially in the mornings Right out of the box, the Blueair - Blue Pure 211i Max impressed me with its sleek and modern design. The unit is compact, yet sturdy, and the fabric pre-filter is a unique touch that adds a stylish element to the device. This units controls are simple yet straight forward and equipped with Smart technology allowing you to monitor and control the air quality through an app on your phone. Unboxing and Setting up this purifier is very easy, and I instantly noticed a difference in the air quality of my home. The HEPASilent technology worked wonders in capturing airborne particles, such as dust and pollen, and the activated carbon filter helped eliminate unpleasant odors. I suffer from seasonal allergies from time to time like so many people and using this purifier, helping me a lot in reduction of my symptoms. The Blue Pure 211i Max has 4 different fan speeds, and I found that the lowest setting was sufficient for maintaining clean air throughout the day. Even at the highest setting, the unit remained relatively quiet, which was a welcome surprise. I could comfortably watch television or hold a conversation without the noise becoming a distraction. Another feature that I appreciate about the Blueair - Blue Pure 211i Max is its energy efficiency. The unit is Energy Star certified and consumes very less energy on the highest setting. So that you can leave the purifier running all day without worrying about your electricity bill skyrocketing. One of the standout features of this air purifier is the washable pre-filter. Which helps cut down on the cost of replacement filters. Cleaning the filter is easy just vacuum it and throw it in washing machine ones in couple of months. The Smart feature of this air purifier is also worth mentioning, download the app and connect the purifier to your network. This helps you monitor the air quality in your home and adjust the settings from anywhere using your smartphone as per your requirement this app also provides useful tips on how to improve indoor air quality making it an excellent tool for anyone concerned about the air they breathe. Another great feature is the filter replacement indicator which notifies you when its time to change the this takes the guesswork out of when to replace the filter ensuring that your purifier is always running at peak performance. In terms of maintenance, the Blueair Max is relatively low The washable pre filter is easy to clean, and the other filter only need to be replaced every 9 months, depending on usage. Overall I highly recommend this Blueair 211i Max to anyone in the market for an air purifier. The sleek design with advanced features, and impressive performance make this a best choice for anyone seeking to improve their home's air quality.

I own two of Blueair’s air purifiers, including this one, and couldn’t be happier with both of them. I’m so happy that I finally have one for my largest room, the living room. It really makes a difference in the air quality and it’s quite noticeable. The design of this unit is outstanding. It’s aesthetically pleasing while still being very functional. I get compliments on this unit as it is somewhat in the center wall of my living room but it blends in well. It is a larger air purifier but it’s built for large spaces so the size is expected but even though it’s large I don’t feel like it’s intrusive. The lcd control panel on top makes it easy to switch through modes and particulate settings. It’s very nice and elegant looking and the entire unit feels well built with quality materials. Setup was very simple out of the box as was linking the unit to the app. I really really like the app. Not only can you adjust all the settings but it has a child lock mode which is handy if you have small children but the best feature of the app, I feel is, the historical graph of how clean the air is. I like to see the differences over time and have something to reference. It’s a nice touch. After getting it setup and starting it up for the first time, it did have a smell for about a day or two. I didn’t mind the smell. It’s more like a “new product” smell that faded over time and now is gone. Overall, I am very happy with this air purifier and feel it improves the overall quality of the air in my home. If you suffer from allergies, dust, or pet dander I feel like air purifiers are a must in your home. I can’t recommend Blueair enough. They are next level when it comes to innovative features and quality design as well as build.

Great air filter for large spaces. The box it comes in is big and I thought it would be very heavy, but I was surprised that it was not at all. It comes with a filter installed and also a fabric pre-filter on the outside. It was a nice clear gray color. The outside pre-filter is washable and they also sell other colors in their website. I plan on getting another color one so I have two on rotation, using one while I wash and dry the other one. The inside filters are not washable, but I they should last around 6-9 months depending on your air quality. I also saw their website and replacement ones are priced reasonably. Setting up the filter was very easy. Just download their app on your favorite device. I did on my phone. Then, I plugged it in and launched their app (you have to create an account), then I added the device and it will ask for your home's wifi credentials so you can attach it to your network. Once done, you can either control it remotely with your phone or using the LED touch panel. I just use the app, which is very complete. I love that it shows the current air quality outdoors in your area, and it also shows the air quality indoors (the filter has a sensor) so you can compare them. The app also allows you to set schedules. I.E I set it to be on the auto setting during the day and the night setting at night so the LED dims and the fan slows down (I did encounter a bug that it would not apply those schedule settings correctly, at night it was setting itself to a lower fan speed but not at its night setting, I hope they fix this soon). Speaking of modes, you can control the fan speed, or if you want you can set it on auto and it will automatically speed up the fan depending on the air quality inside your home. The night setting dims it and also slows down the fans, so lets say in case you have the filter in your bedroom, it does not disturb your sleep). At first it did have a "new" plastic smell, but it went ago very quickly after a few hours of using. I love that is such a powerful air cleaner, it can clean around 600 sq feet area in around 13 minutes and around 1500 sq feet in around half an our. It cleans lots of particles in the air, but the most important to me are pollen and dirt, since I have allergies, this filter has helped having the air clean in my home, it's important as sometimes your indoor air could be even worse than outdoors! Highly recommend it if you want to keep your air clean in large spaces!!!

The Blue air filter is quite big, but it has to be to circulate and clean the amount of air it does for a 635 sq ft room (takes about 12.5 minutes). The added touch of a pre filter that can be hand washed extends the life of the internal hepa filter. The unit silently runs and pushes air vertically from the top. The app was a snap to set up and was able to take control of the unit from a different room for testing. I was able to schedule a 3 hour nightly window that turned the unit on and run, then back off at the desired time. My air in the basement was showing as excellent with little to no particulates so there was no reason to run it 24/7. When I moved it to my main living room, the amount of particulates jumped considerably. So I ran it constant, as I have a daughter with bad allergies. Currently in our area the pollen count is very high. I noticed an immediate difference when I ran it near her room. No more waking up and sneezing constantly for 10 minutes every morning. She is now able to sleep more soundly with less sneezing fits. The unit is very nice and looks good in any room I move it too, not out of place, even considering the size. The control lights and buttons on the top are very nicely lit and the LED brightness can be adjusted as to not stand out so much or light up a room at night. The control on the unit operates power, a night mode, fan speed, toggle mode and an auto mode. The auto mode adjusts fan speed per your need for air quality. The night mode auto adjusts the light brightness and a low fan speed for noise level. The other modes are self explanatory. The unit weighs in at about 16 lbs. The blue air does a great job of cleaning the air, its allergy reducing benefits are worth there weight in gold. I would recommend this to family and friends.

This air purifier by Blueair does an outstanding job. It is very easy to setup and run. The app is easy to use. The most important feature is the automatic mode. It runs the fan at a very slow speed and increases when it determines the air quality to deteriorate. For example, it is located in the family room and when cooking in the kitchen the fan may speed up if it detects an odor, smoke, etc. In fact, even when the purifier kicks in at a higher fan rate it is still very quiet. Just looking at the filters one can see it is definitely cleaning the air throughout the house. It is rated to clean a 3000 sq ft house. And, the price seems to be reasonable especially when you search for other purifier and find much higher prices. I'm sold on this particular unit and wish I had purchased it sooner. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

We read lots of teviews on the Bluair 211i priduct We agree its a great product with good capability for clean ait The set up was easy its great that once wifi connected the Blueair shiws the outside air quality a resl bonus is that its very quiet We only had one problem in not connecting to Bluetooth The connection to wifi was easy We tried all the Bluetooth options with no success we have lits of priducts with a successful Bluetooth connection We will continue using the product even though Bluetooth connection We suggest they do a better job and release updates that fixes this issue

We recently moved into a new house and had to move my elderly mother and her three dogs in with our family and were in the market for an air purifier that could clear the air from my mom’s area, which is a little over 700 square feet. My mom downsized from about 2600 square feet however, as expected and although little dogs, the dogs stayed the same size and created the same messes in a much smaller space. Being that my mother is elderly, it is much harder for her now to keep up on her household chores, including cleaning up after her three dogs, which does not bode well for our nostrils. We definitely had to something with my mom’s side other than continuing to clean and experimenting with different air fresheners, candles, plug-ins, etc. Mind you, we have air purifiers in just about every area and room on our side of the house, which is approximately 3100 square feet. We’ve become accustomed to clean, odor free air and it’s a must have for those of us with year round allergies and lots of house guests. Ultimately, we settled on the new Blueair line of air purifiers, specifically the 211i Max, because of its features, size it covers, aesthetics and quiet sound. It was simple to set up after taking it out of the box, downloading the smart phone app, creating an account and turning it on. The app monitors the air in real time, advises you of pollutants and reminds you when it’s time to change the filter. You don’t have to rely on the app for functionality if you aren’t tech saavy as the purifier also has simple two-button controls on the top to toggle it on/off, adjust the speed and putting it on child or night mode to not be a distraction. We were very surprised that just after a few hours of use we could already tell, and smell, the difference in the air. Overall, the Blue Pure 211i Max checked every box for my mom’s set up and our recent change in air cleanliness adding three dogs to our household. It feels sturdy and well made, as expected from a Swedish manufacturer, and aesthetically matched our light grey walls with white base boards. I would recommend this air purifier to anyone in the market for one with a large area to clean.

The Blue Pure 211i Max air purifier is a very well constructed product. It was simple to install and was easy to setup. Once connected to the power scan the QR code to download the mobile application that is available for iPhone and Android. When you turn it on you'll see the bright screen light up with different modes to show if the purifier is on auto, fan speed wifi and the particulate matter (PM) or particle pollution. I have had air purifiers in the past but not all have the option to see the PM levels which is pretty neat. During the application set up, you have the option to connect the air purifier to your wifi. Connecting the air purifier to Wi-fi will give you access to control it remotely and some other useful features. After the initial setting the air purifier began to scan for the PM in the air. I placed the air purifier in my living room and the PM was reading about 13. Within 10-15 minutes the PM was reduced to 0. I honestly could not tell a huge difference in the air quality but seeing the PM chart did give me some peace of mind. There are different types of speed settings including an auto mode. I mostly use the auto mode. However, the highest fan speed it’s actually pretty good too. Something really great about this device is that it is extremely quiet. There is this welcome Home feature which utilizes your phone’s GPS location to know when you are home and away. When you leave the house, the air purifier goes into sleep mode and when you are about 15 minutes from arriving, the air purifier turns on, so that you can arrive at your home with clean air. Overall it seems to be a pretty good air purifier, it is extremely quiet, very well constructed and easy to setup. It has good features, the mobile app provides useful information and it can be controlled remotely. In the box you get the air purifier and user manual

There is so much to love about this Air Purifier. It's bigger in real life than what I had originally thought just looking at the listing (I didn't pay attention to the dimensions), but that's a good thing. It really will cover the area it says it will. The biggest thing that separates this from the other Air Purifiers we have all over out house is how quiet it is. This thing is fairly big in order to adequately clean the air in a large area, but runs quieter than any of the small tabletop style purifiers I have! The design is excellent too - I mean it actually looks good. Many purifiers look very stark, but the cloth "skirt" around this one gives it a much softer stylish look. Of course, looks are irrelevant if it doesn't work well, but this does a great job and has every feature you could want in an air purifier. Besides the usual settings of low/medium/high, the Blueair 211i will detect the current level of particles in the air and adjust itself accordingly. This is the setting I leave it on as it makes the most sense. If you're cooking or something, it will kick into higher gear to help remove the pollution from the air. This also has a way to change the brightness level of the digital display which is great because if it's in a dark room you don't want a bright display. And although you can fully control this just using the controls that are on the top of the unit, it can also be connected to your WiFi and then controlled through an app - talk about advanced features! The Blueair Blue Pure 211i Max air purifier is the best one I have owned (and I have 4 other brands in my house of varying sizes). It has every feature you could possibly want in a purifier. It's large enough to fully clean a large area without being too big. It looks great. And it's SO quiet! Really overall great product.

I have been testing the BLUAIR 211i Max air purifier for the past 3 days and I am very impressed with it. The setup was quick and easy, and I was able to connect it to my Wi-Fi network using the provided app. Once it was connected, I was able to control all of the air purifier's settings from my phone. One of the things I love most about this air purifier is how quiet it is. Even on its highest setting, it is barely audible. At most it sounded like a tiny fan moving air. The exterior styling is also very simple and unobtrusive. But perhaps the best thing about this air purifier is its performance. Using the app, I was able to see real-time air quality graphs that showed me particle counts. The entire time I used this air purifier, my air quality consistently stayed in the excellent range. Whenever the air quality degraded the BLUAIR 211 quickly and quietly stepped in to get the air quality back to excellent. Overall, I am very happy with the BLUAIR 211i Max air purifier. It is quiet, stylish, and performs very well. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an air purifier that will improve the air quality in their home.

First thing is, this baby is big! Can easily be mistaken for a speaker. It has smart controls and WiFi, and is only a little loud when the fan speeds are in high mode. It has an auto mode, and you can set schedules for it as well, and in the app also shows you the filter life and air quality. We have dogs and a baby, and this has helped soooo much!

Me and spouse were looking for a new purifier for our bedroom since we moved our 211+ auto (previous generation) to our living room. Bought this new generation purifier and it’s absolutely amazing! I must say it did get rid of all the allergies from the pollen that was discovered in my room. One thing I noticed is, when you open this out of the box for the first time be sure to put the purifier on max so it can air out completely for at least 30 minutes to an hour. It does have a new type of smell but after the timeframe it should go away. I think this smell happens after setting in the warehouse for a while.

Blueair air purifiers are sleek, quiet, and excellent at cleaning the air—especially in medium to large rooms. Their HEPASilent™ technology combines strong filtration with low noise, making them great for bedrooms or living spaces. However, the filters can be pricey, and some users notice a slight smell when first installing new ones. Overall, they’re a solid choice if you value design and performance and don’t mind the higher cost.

I live in a rural area outside of a medium sized town in the Midwest. During different times of the year we get a lot of pollen, smoke from neighbors burning leaves/grass/branches, and various odors from nearby farms. To make things worse, I have allergies from many of the trees and grasses that grow right around my home. So, I basically need a home air purifier in order for me to work and sleep at different times. This is currently the height of pollen season for oak trees here and everything is constantly covered with yellow pollen. But, I have had the Blue Pure 211i Max running for three days now and I feel it has really kept the dust and pollen down inside our home greatly. I don't wake up with a stuffy head or have the bouts of sneezing and runny nose. I haven't taken any allergy medicine either. The Blue Pure 211i Max is a well designed and a nice looking floor unit. I think it blends in well to our home decor. After awhile, you don't even notice it is there. The motor is also very quiet and you really can't hear any noise, unless you get right up to it. The motor is large and so is the filter. It can quickly clear the air in the room within a short time. Our main living area is approximately 1,400 square feet, which according to the Blueair information, can be cleared in 30 minutes. The Blue Pure system is largely something you set and forget. The App is very nice and provides a lot of information about the air quality in my area and inside my home. I was able to program the days and times that I wanted it to operate and just let it do it's thing. I have occasionally looked at the App, while I am home or away at work, just to see what the air quality is in my home and how fast the fan is working. I also like that I can override any programmed setting in case we are going to be home early or out later. The programming is easy and works just like a programmable thermostat. As I mentioned earlier, I've only had the Blue Pure 211i Max for 3 days. So, I am still learning about some of its capabilities and the best place to put this in my home. I debated whether to put this on the second floor, where we sleep. Or put it in the main living area, where we spend the majority of our awake times. For now, I have this in our Family Room, which also covers the kitchen and dining rooms and is near the front and back entrances. After only 3 days, I feel confident in saying that this has helped clear the room air of kitchen smells, as well as filtering out the pollen, dust, and odors from the outside. If you, or anyone in your family, have allergies or sensitivities to indoor or outdoor odors, I would certainly recommend the Blue Pure 211i Max for your home.

Yes there is a plastic seal which you will see when pulling the purifier out of the box. I upgraded from the 211+ Auto which I ran on high 24/7. There was definitely a storage smell that had been built up on the 211i Max so I ran at full speed for 72+ hours and that smell was gone. That’s the only thing with this one. Pros: Upgrade from 350 CADR to 401 Smart Display which shows EVERY PARTICLE SCANNED into the filter which is also included on the Smart BlueAir APP (iPhone) So you can see exactly how clean the air is. I have mine automated to turn to auto when I leave the apartment and then when I am about 2 miles away from the apartment, the purifier goes full blast for about 15 minutes so by the time I get home, the air is fresh. This is a crazy advantage filter wise which they are now boasting 9-12 months. The 211+ Auto I swapped out religiously every 6 months. The sensor on this air purifier is the true intelligence behind this Swedish engineering. I vape in my room which is a dorm (so maybe 150 sq feet). When I vape medical marijuana and have the device on auto, it is picked up immediately. The part per million jump to over 300, and in about 30-60 seconds, the display shows ZERO PPM and your air has effectively been cleansed. No Smell or Mary J. It’s like it never happened. Even if I cap from across the room, it kicked in and auto tunes to the proper cleanse to get that number back down to 0 PPM. The Auto Feature on the 211+ Auto wasn’t bad in my opinion. I thought it was good. After owning the 211i Max, its like a halo. There is 4 fan speeds and an auto and night. Power on Power Off and wi-if signal, to show it is connected. Your remote Control, is your phone which in my case is an Apple iPhone 14 pro. The highest gear (level 4) is where I keep it, which is one decibel lower then level three on my old 211+ Auto. The 4th gear is noticeabley different suction pulling in more air at a ever so slightly quieter decibel level that the 211+Auto. Part of me wants to smoke a cigarettes in my room just to see how well it does and how fast it goes to 0 PPM, but I quit smoking cigs a long time ago and the last thing I need to know is that I can smoke cigs in my room. Marijuana Vapor, when placed on Auto before the session, eliminated the odor in about 1-5 minutes. Once it kicks in I set the setting on high. Overall, I do not know how they beat this one. Wish it came with an extra pre-filter but whatever. Price of the replacement filter is the same price as the replacement on the 211+ and 211+Auto. A lot of people will probably be turned off by the initial smell. 72+ hours of full speed and you now have the new number one rated air purifier of 2023 (guaranteed), the 211i Max being #1 next to the 211+ Auto, which is 2nd. Before returning my 211+ Auto I placed both purifiers at opposite sides. When blowing vapor in the middle, the 211+Auto was left powerless to the suction of the 211+ max. It might be nice to have this one turned on at all times and another on auto. For me its the Dyson HP01 (COOL-HEAT). I just keep it on oscillating and auto. Jet stream no intake on the Dyson. I use the Dyson at night for Direct Clean air on my face at a preferred speed. Or in the winter, I will set the temp to 70 degrees and still keep it on auto. The 211i Max spreading the heat within seconds and then the Dyson stops as it reached the temperature set. I think this Air-Purifier will make both my Dyson filter and the 211i Max filter lasting longer as the 211i Max has the smart features and the Dyson is left on auto and never turns on. Which is why I use it at night to oscillate or agitate the already clean air pushing it all back into my room. Best air purifier for the Money CADR and Smart Features hands down.

Bought the filter when the wildfires were having our air quality so pour I was getting really sick. The filter is easy to set up, the app is fairly easy to use. The app can be a little glitchy if you use multiple phones to talk to it. Sometimes the air quality readings can be glitchy. Aside from these small issues though, the filter does an amazing job. Also, at 4am when the neighbors dog starts barking and waking me up, I turn the air filter up and the white noise drowns it out. It's quiet on low but turned up it gets loud. Not annoying though, just loud.

So far so good! This has helped a ton with the air quality in our house. We added a golden retriever to our family and I can see dog hair collecting on the outside of the unit. It has different settings, the higher settings are loud but the lowest one is quiet. I just adjust mine a# needed. Most of the time I don’t mind the high setting.
