Dyson Pure Hot + Cool Link Air Purifier

Dyson Pure Hot + Cool Link Air Purifier


The Dyson Pure Hot + Cool link air purifier arrived in a very informative box which was well packaged. Included in the box with the unit were simple instructions and a booklet containing the warranty which you had to register. This gives you peace of mind of having a 2 year warranty on parts AND labour which is an added bonus as labour after one year normally costs.
The purpose of this unit is to give you the ability to purify the air while it either heats or cools the room, whichever mode you prefer. It does this via a hepa filter in the base which apparently removes 99.95% of particles in the air. The hepa filter looks very much like the ones in the Dyson vacuums only bigger and this can be replaced very simply. I did try this but obviously mine does not need replacing yet as I have only had it a few days and it apparently should last approximately one year if run every day for 12 hours constant.
One of the other features you get with this model is that it collaborates with your smart phone via an app downloaded from either the Apple App store or Google play.   I downloaded the app quite simply within seconds off the Apple store.  This was also where I registered my 2 year warranty simply by inputting a few numbers off the booklet that came with it.  The app also acts as a remote control and enables you to adjust your settings, see how clean the machine thinks your air is, and see how the air purity has changed over time. There are 2 very discreet sensors in the back. These check the air for dust and other compounds and sends this information to the app which then adjusts to purify the air.
If you prefer you can use the remote control that comes with the unit. This magnetically sits on the top, which for my family is an absolute genius idea as we are forever losing remote controls. From the remote control you can adjust the modes, set whether you want the unit to oscillate, set it to automatic mode or even night time mode. Again, I found the remote control very easy to use and pretty much self-explanatory from the pictures on the buttons, for example a moon symbol is night time mode, red circle is heat mode and a blue circle is cold.
Overall, I have to say that I am very impressed with The Dyson Pure Hot + Cool link. I love the design with its contemporary look and the fact that it has no blades, yet it’s a fan. It can cool a room in minutes. I can honestly say, it has been tested well these last few days as we have had temperatures of 32 degrees. I know these temperatures are rare in the UK but having this unit has felt like I have air conditioning installed rather than a fan and my room is 28 foot by 13 foot so a large room. My room feels so much cooler and I have the fan set on the wide angled oscillation rather than pointing directly at us, this then actually feels like a light cool breeze from a window open rather than catching your breath with a fan in your face.  I like the fact that it can immediately become a heater but has no exposed heating elements that can cause danger to anybody. I tried the heating setting and trust me, this will warm your room instantly.  What more can I say except “I love it!”. Thank you Dyson for another amazing product!
