I had initially purchased a shark 4 and 6 fan purifier and they both stayed on the lowest number for a few hours and I thought surely this isn’t right. We have 2 dogs a baby and no fan in our living room.
I moved one into the kitchen and cooked on the stove, in the oven and it never moved indicating that there were more particles in the air.
So I returned them both and bought 2 of these. AMAZING. I did the same thing. I brought 1 into the kitchen, cooked a meal - the number went high, but went right back down after it cleans. I love the auto feature also.
The filter lasts a long time. I’m just now needing to replace it after 6 months.

Great purifier! Has made a huge difference with regards to allergies. Filter lasted about 3 months. Not cheap to replace but worth it to be able to breathe easier.

I recently purchased the Insignia™ 497 Sq. Ft. HEPA Air Purifier in white, intrigued by its promising features and specifications. While my experience with the product had its highs and lows, there are a few aspects potential buyers should be aware of before making a decision.
Pros:
The Insignia™ Air Purifier boasts an impressive coverage area of 497 square feet, making it suitable for larger rooms or open spaces. The tower design is sleek and modern, seamlessly blending into various room aesthetics. The inclusion of an air quality indicator light is a nice touch, providing real-time feedback on air quality levels.
The triple filtration system, comprising HEPA, activated carbon, and removable filters, holds the potential to deliver exceptional air purification results. The Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 320 adds credibility to its performance claims, suggesting that it can effectively tackle a variety of pollutants, from dust to allergens.
Cons:
One of the most noticeable downsides of this air purifier is its size. It's noticeably larger than many other models in the market, which might pose a challenge for placement, especially in smaller rooms or cramped spaces. If aesthetics and space efficiency are essential considerations for you, this might be a point to ponder.
Moreover, when the purifier is operating at its maximum speed, it becomes significantly louder than expected. This noise level could be quite distracting, especially if you're trying to work, sleep, or engage in any quiet activities while the purifier is running at full blast.
Another point of contention is the discrepancy in filter longevity information. The product's website indicates a filter replacement period of 24 months, which sounds impressive. However, the manual suggests a much shorter span of just 3 months. This inconsistency creates confusion and raises questions about the actual filter lifespan.
In conclusion, the Insignia™ 497 Sq. Ft. HEPA Air Purifier offers a commendable performance level with its extensive coverage and triple filtration system. However, its larger size, noise level at maximum speed, and conflicting filter replacement information are aspects that might deter potential buyers seeking a more compact, quieter, and hassle-free air purifier experience. If you have a spacious room and noise isn't a concern, this air purifier could be a suitable choice, but make sure to consider the downsides before making your decision.

We have a couple dogs and noticed our house to be a little wet dog smelling. After using a couple of these units, we have noticed a significant impact on air quality. Not embarrassed to have people over to visit now. Just sounds like a small fan running, not really an issue.

I have had this air purifier for about 6 months now. It does an okay job of removing odors and it appears to clear the air to some extent. It is generally okay if you find it on sale.

It absolutely improves air quality like the product suggests. I bought it mistakenly believing there was a pet odor in my apartment but it was an unknown mold issue. Although it wasn’t specifically for mold, I believe it saved me from getting sick from the long term exposure. It also works especially great if your kitchen gets smoky while cooking or frying.

After purchasing the smaller size for a bedroom and experiencing the difference it made we purchased this one for the living room. This does an amaxing job of keeping the air clean in a house with 3 dogs. I've also noticed a reduction in dust.

Runs rather quietly and cleans up the air in our living room quickly. The filter starts giving off a refrigerator like odor though only after a few days. The replacement filter is $60 and can only be bought from BestBuy. No generic replacements in the market, which is a big negative for me.
