Airocide has managed to take something as practical as an Air Purifier and redesign it to become a beautiful piece of home décor. This elegant product will look great in the home or office, but also works hard to keep the air you are breathing clean and greatly reducing exposure to allergens.

Featuring an attractive grill made from anodized aluminium, it is lightweight whilst retaining a strong quality and attaches to the unit via magnetic latches. The outer body is a made from a dark wood grain that compliments the colourful orange inner compartment. The purifier is easy to use with capacitive touch controls to adjust the setting from ‘Low’, ‘High’ or ‘Auto’. The ‘Low’ setting is made for environments where you want to keep the noise to a minimum; the ‘High’ setting is the most effective mode and offers the best results, whilst the ‘Auto’ setting will detect the ambient light in the room and automatically adjust to low when the room darkens, like at the end of the working day or getting ready for bed. There are no filters to change, however you will need to replace the reaction chambers once a year, which is roughly another £80 a year on top of the initial £440 cost - making this an expensive investment.

The Airocide Air Purifier claims to eliminate virtually 100% of your home’s Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), can be used in any size room, reduce your exposure to top allergens like mould, bacteria, and dust mites, as well as protecting your family from airborne pathogens that cause illness. After a short while of using the Airocide Air Purifier, I can’t honestly say that I have noticed any real difference other than the constant hum of the motor. It looks great and is easy to use, but the price is off-putting. RRP £440
