I’d recommend it if you have deep pockets and not a ton of challenging air pollution situations to combat on the regular. That said, it might actually save you money in the long run if you don’t want to buy a purifier, a fan, and a humidifier individually and you want a powerful device for each activity. The bottom line: Aside from the note above, this is a really expensive device, coming in at more than $800. The humidity that the Dyson model generates in the house is definitely a healthy and reasonable level (most sources recommend 30–50% humidity, and the Dyson, at its highest humidity setting, hovers around 60%), but if you are like me and want more targeted humidity in the super dry winter months, this is not the machine for you and you might want to stick to separate devices for purifying, humidifying, and cooling. What I would change: This may be a misconception about the purpose of a humidifier, but I am used to really intense humidifiers that emit visible plumes of moist steam all night long. I also appreciate the night mode setting, which makes everything a little quieter and less bright.

You can also control the fan speed, oscillation range, and set timers from the app.Īs for specific features I appreciate, filling the water tank from the top is a huge plus and it’s large enough that it doesn’t have to be refilled every day.

And I love being able to check in on the air stats (temperature, particle level, humidity level, etc) whenever I want. While I hate having an app for literally every device in my home, installing the Dyson Link app really did make installation a snap. But when the air quality has dipped below ideal levels, it doesn’t seem to take much time for the purifier to do the job once I turn up the fan speed (it should be noted that this model also has an auto purify setting that will kick into high gear if the quality dips, but it is a little loud for my taste so I tend to keep it on a lower setting). I guess it could be due in part to my obsession with clean air, but, so far, the Dyson has reported good air quality every time I’ve checked in–the only exceptions being after I’ve lit candles or cooked something on the stovetop. The Humidify+Cool has a HEPA filtration system and a separate carbon filter detects formaldehyde.

An update to earlier Dyson models, this machine does all that and aside from getting rid of the usual particles, it also removes formaldehyde (which can cause even more irritation to your eyes and throat) from the air. My experience: It’s rare to find a machine that can purify your air, humidify it, and cool down a space all in one–so I was impressed right off the bat. Installing them initially was quite quick–they snapped into place fairly easily.

Filter replacements: Filter replacements cost $79.99 and it’s recommended that they be replaced once every year.
