Customer Ratings & Reviews

Received my Shark 3 in 1 air purifier and first thing after unpacking you must remove the filter which is located in back under a plastic removable cover. It's above the electric cord and is wrapped in a plastic bag which I cut open with scissors to access. Replace it back and you're ready to go. The unit is circular in shape which is very pleasing to the eye compared to most all others that are rectangular or boxy. When you position it be sure you are at least 3 feet from a wall or object to obtain good air flow. Next you pull the yellow paper tag with a black arrow which is underneath the removable round remote control that's setting on top of the purifier. It connects back on magnetically when you go to replace it after use. There is a red scan bar code attached on the top that takes you to a YouTube video showing the complete operation of the unit. I definitely recommend doing this as it is only 5 minutes long but tells you a lot of the features you need to know. You can also head over to the Shark website if you can't scan. I used my phone and it worked well. Once plugged in and started you'll find a lever on the right side near top that adjusts the air flow. I really liked this feature. Then there is a knob, also on the right side, that has 3 available positions. Turn it to the left and you have Purified Fan and Purified Heat. Turn it right and you get the Purified Air and Auto mode. In Auto it automatically adjust the purification power based on air quality. You can also manually adjust the fan speed using the fan arrow setting. It has 6 levels of air speed and even at level 6 I found it to not be loud or disturbing at all. Level one or two is perfect for sleeping - so quiet you can barely hear it running. And if you missed it above, this unit purifies ALL your air! Heat, Fan or the Purifier itself. Really a superb feature! On the front you will find a blue ring with a digital readout of what air quality your home has. You can adjust the ring brightness to 3 levels...High, Low or Off. I like it on Low. Still can see it but doesn't bother you, especially at night when going to sleep. Another wonderful feature is this unit will oscillate and still remain quiet! I tried the heater feature and you can place on HI or level it down by degrees to your desired temperature. It worked wonders for keeping my room warm, especially being here in Wisconsin. I set mine on 74 degrees and it was absolutely perfect for me. One of the handiest things on this purifier is the circular removable remote! You can virtually do everything needed right in the palm of your hand. And this same remote controls the unit if you leave it attached so it has every single function of the purifier on it. Very impressed with this for sure. After running this for nearly 3 days in my bedroom I definitely can tell the air smells fresh and clean. My eyes aren't itching from allergies and I can honestly say this Shark 3 in 1 beats any other purifier I've owned and I have 3 others in different rooms. To be able to have a fan, a heater and an air purifier all in one unit is genius! I highly recommend its purchase! What a winner Shark! I love this!

With winter quickly approaching, this new Shark 3 in 1 Air Purifier with Purified Heat is exactly what I need to get me through those cold winter nights and mornings. And now, I don’t have to worry about running a separate air purifier, this new Shark does both jobs at the same time, saving me space and money! I get to have my cake and eat it too! The air purifier comes well packaged in cardboard and plastic bags that can be recycled. Recyclable packaging is always appreciated since it keeps waste out of the landfills and saves me a trash bag. The purifier comes fully assembled with the filter inside the unit, within a plastic bag. Be sure to remove the plastic bag from the filter or it won’t work. Shark makes this pretty obvious with a couple different indicators on the unit and in the set up guide. Once you get the filter reinstalled, replace the filter cover and place the unit somewhere where it will be at least three feet from any walls or furnishings. Once you turn the filter on it will begin to analyze the air quality, indicated by rotating lights on the front. It takes a few seconds and then the current air quality and air temperature are displayed. You can also access your real time air quality information by pressing the info button on the remote. From there you can see the PM1, PM2.5, PM10, Filter Life and more. Once ready, you can begin using the remote to customize your settings. Keep in mind that there is a knob on the side of the unit that must be manually toggled forward and backward to select between the three available modes. This cannot be changed using the remote. Rotating the knob forward allows for the Purified Fan and Purified Heat features to be used, while backward activities the Purified Air mode. Another thing to keep in mind is that while all three modes do purify the air, the Purified Air mode does so without the fan blowing forward and it does a more efficient job cleaning the air in this mode when run with Auto turned on. The Auto function allows the filter to automatically adjust the fan speed and purification power based on the air quality of the room. I’ve been using this new Shark 3 in 1 for a few days now and am more than happy with the level of purification it provides and the heat has been great as winter approaches. It’s been sitting in my office for now, since I spend eight hours a day in there, and recently it’s been pretty cold in the mornings. The air in my office has never been more fresh! I use the heater in the morning, while it’s chilly, then around noon I’ll switch to the Air Purifier mode and change it to Auto. The Auto function really does a great job keeping the air at 100%, according to the readout on the display. I have noticed that the air quality readout works incredibly well. It drops down pretty quickly when the unit detects smoke, aerosols, fragrance, and yes, flatulence set’s it off! It will go from silent to near full speed fan if somebody passes gas, rapidly clearing the air of the offending odor! I love it. Haha. Another great feature has been the fan. Although the mornings have been cold, we did have a warm evening recently and the fan helped to keep me cool while working. This is nice for me, because it can get warm in my office in the summer time with the extra computers and other electronic equipment. I also really like that the fan oscillates, distributing air throughout the room as it works to clean and cool/heat. The remote controls everything on the air filter other than the mode selection, and the front air vents, which manually tilt up and down to adjust the airflow. It would be nice if the remote did it all, but that would probably increase the cost substantially. And I’m okay with having to get up and change the mode from time to time, so it’s no big deal. Another small critique would be that you need the remote to control the air filter. The only button on the unit is the power button, beyond that, the remote docks on the top to be used as the buttons for the unit. But I worry about families that might break or lose their remote, also losing control of the air filter until a replacement is purchased. Probably nothing I need to worry about but something I wanted to mention. The filter life will depend on your environment and if you have a smoker in the house. Flip the filter every three months to extend the life. Doing so will equalize the balance and distribution of captured particles throughout the filter, allowing for extended use. The filter cannot be cleaned or recycled and needs to be replaced when the unit tells you that the filter life is low. This can be checked using the info button on the remote. Replacement filters are found on Shark’s website. I’m really happy I got this new Shark 3 in 1 Air Purifier for my home and home office. It’s really been a great addition and helps to keep me healthy by breathing fresh clean air and comfortable by warming or cooling me depending on the time of year. I highly recommend this to anyone who uses both a heater and air filter during the winter or a fan and air filter during the summer.

Love the features but not sure the purifier part is legit.

Great value .................................................

I want to love this product. I got it because I figured it should be a good brand, it’s a Shark. I was wrong. It catches VOC levels good and cleans the air at a fast rate, fan works well, air smells clean, but does not work with dust. My room has been even more dusty since I got this purifier. I got it mostly for the dust. Sometimes when I’m close to it I’m Ching on the dust particles that I’m swallowing. This is even with allergen covers on my bed!

I have tried for three weeks to use this purifier/heater to help supplement heat a 250 sq ft room. I set it to the highest setting, 86 degrees, in a room that also has a working heat pump that I've set to 63 degrees. The heat never reaches above 65 no matter how long it has been running.

Works well so far. I have only had it for a short time.

Pro: -Detachable remote -Heat gets warm quick -Auto detects air quality Con: -If remote is lost, you can’t change settings -Fan mode has low airflow to noise volume This is my second Shark purifier and I have no real complaints. It looks nice and doesn’t take up that much space, and it leaves a clean smell. It also serves as a light fan and good space heater. It’s powerful enough to clean an average sized living room. The front display has a clean aesthetic, displaying air quality information and the temperature. It can cycle through different particle types, filter life, and how long it will take to clean the area. The ring will also change color based on air quality. All the buttons, except the power button, are on the detachable remote. It’s held on by a strong magnet, but if it’s lost, then you lose all control over the purifier. You can still switch between purifier and fan with the knob, but nothing else. As a purifier, it’s quiet and puts out a nice clean smell. The Clean Sense IQ will auto detect air quality and adjust the fan strength accordingly. In this mode, the air is pushed out the back. When in Fan/Heat mode, the air flows from the front. The fan airflow is somewhat weak at low to medium setting but is relatively quiet. At higher settings, it can get loud, so the airflow to noise volume may not be worth it. The auto air quality detector will still crank up the power if the air quality drops. The heating is fast to warm up and is temperature controlled. Great for heating up a room quickly. The HEPA filter should last months and a replacement will cost $60, which isn’t too expensive.

I like that it keeps my room warm while keeping thw air quality perfect. I used to cough all the time in my room until i bought this.

Its not from heat, as its in fan mode, no heat. My Dyson has never had this smell. I have it out in the garage running to see if the smell goes away. Its a chemical plastic like small. Its horrible.

Having a unit that will do everything and not having to buy multiple units to do different functions, is really worth the buy.

It caught fire the very same day i bought it and plugged it in. I would like to imagine it was just a rare defective unit but a space heater catching fire as much as i love my animals and life I have literally crossed this brand off my brands to teust their products. Scary.

Not what I expected. The purifier works okay, not the greatest. I thought since it’s by Shark & the price tag, it would be really good. The heating & air works okay. Overall nothing special—just an average 3-in-1 system.

Shark Air Purifier 3-in-1 with True HEPA Filter, Air Purifier, Purified Heat, Purifed Fan, Odor Lock, 500 sq. ft. - Black This solidly-built Shark Air Purifier 3-in-1 product is so much more than your typical air purifier. The “3-in-1” in the product name is your first clue that there’s so much more to come. In addition to purifying the air, this unit also provides purified heat and purified fan settings for spaces up to 500 square feet. That’s more than enough to cover most rooms. Paper documentation is minimal, but the instructions on operating the unit are clearly printed on the unit itself. That’s a nice feature, since you don’t have to constantly refer to the paper instructions (that is, if you can even find them later). Kudos for that. There’s also a QR code printed on the unit that you can scan. It takes you to an online video, showing you how to operate the unit. Choosing the location for the unit is important and can be an issue for folks with tight spaces, since the recommendation is that the unit be placed three feet from the wall and from any furniture. Operating this unit is a pleasure, since the various options are clearly marked, and the easy-to-read display shows you the results of your chosen action. There’s a feature called “Clean Sense IQ” which automatically adjusts and maintains the temperature setting you choose. And there’s an oscillating option which makes the operating part of the unit rotate to cover the widest possible area with the fan’s breeze. The included filter can last from six months to a year, depending on how much you use the unit. The product is covered by warranty for two years for both parts and labor, so the manufacturer certainly has confidence in this unit. So can you. This product is a winner! Highly recommended.

Wish there was a way to turn the device chime off. Chime is loud when adjusting settings at night

I'm in love with this air purifier so far! I've been using it for a week now and I can already tell a difference in the air quality inside my house. I have several friends with pet allergies that visit regularly and my hope upon purchasing this purifier was to help minimize the dander my 3 cats create for not only my guests, but for my husband and self as well. I love how customizable and user friendly it is. The fact that I have the option to switch between cool, heat and normal and it still purifies the air is very appealing to me, especially during this time of the year when it's cold in the mornings, but warm during the day. I've left it on auto so it's pretty hands off, but it does come with a handy remote to control everything from. The purifier clearly indicated on the front what the current room temperature is, what the air quality is and the life of the filter. It's really quiet too. I've placed this in our living room and you pretty much don't know it's there unless you're looking right at it. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get one of these for every floor of my house! Highly recommend.

Doesn't seem to purify the air as well as our other purifiers, cant tell much of a difference in air quality. Was hoping for the price it would do better.

Cleans air. Shows all numbers on its display. Thanks

Very bad product. Thats probably why its discounted big. Got the product in february. In a month it stopped working. But bestbuy doesnt take anything back after 15 days Had to deal with shark directly for the warranty. Very time consuming and cumbersome process and they are charging me tp ship a replacement fpr their brand new product that broke in less than a month

Not good and remote is not working without remote it’s useless
