Philips Air Purifier AC4012 / 10 especially for allergy sufferers and children (tool)

Customer Review

My new favorite in the bedroom :-)

And to start to sleep through a good mood for the day we wanted for a long time ... That worked as allergic family so far not very good. My daughter had a long time to deal with morning sneezing attacks, I had breathing problems at night and was in the morning as whacked because of coughing and shortness of breath, my husband and so the other daughter suffered both with: The children in the bedroom and we in the master bedroom. Since both a daughter and I are so plagued by allergies, we wanted finally what to do about (pollen filter at the window did not help).
So it was time for something new! We discovered the Philips air purifier AC4012 / 10, which is advertised as, dust, pollen, gases and bacteria to effectively filter is suitable for the bedroom, by the way is even more energy efficient with 29 W and, most important: a sleep mode has! So just right for us!

The air purifier was delivered in a very informative board on which you already have all the information at a glance, and we could not wait to unpack it and test! When the carton opening a great surprise: On the cover "under the first box-cover" is a fully illustrated instructions printed, and fast as we wanted to try everything, we talked only about it.
Pictured here are the following points, which are labeled in five languages ​​(such as the handy and detailed user manual in a box-inside as well: English, German, French, Dutch and Cyrillic):

1. First use
2. Use of the equipment
3. Clean the pre-filter
4. Replacing the activated carbon filter and the HEPA filter
5. Clean the sensor

Ie. A lot of possible reasons for In-the-hand-Take the operating instructions are with a view of the carton done, the manual is really great imaged, so we could see the device (for awesome Marvel over the slender shape of the device and the premium look) after a few simple steps then insert also the first time. The tall, slender box is very impressive with its elegant smooth white surface and the black circular display. Subsequent four choices can be found:
At the top "Power"
right "Speed"
including "Replace filters and reset" and
left "Timer" (Great idea !!!).

So quickly inserted:
A first pleasant melody rang out, and the display on the screen was only times red. Okay, so we expected because it must indeed have a reason why we have these allergies at home. The colors on the screen of the device (the nice little circle, reminiscent of a lens of a camera on the front) show namely to take a look at the air quality.
Blue stands for "good"
Violet for "means"
Red for "Bad".

(We like definitely blue best, which of course has to do not only with the home furnishings, but also the meaning behind ;-)

So, after we had all admired the display which lit up briefly when switching on and greeted us with this nice tone, we were able to select the fan speed. What was most important to us: How did the sounds sleep mode (in the Manual referred to as sleep mode)? And now after weeks of testing, we can say: It does not sound like he's really very quiet, and after a few minutes getting used to this quiet, gentle sound at first use in the bedroom Schlafensgeh time you do not hear it. I was sometimes awake at night and had to look at the display if the device does is still running!

As we unpacked the unit for mid-day time of day (the nice package riders thank the device wore me even to the first floor, which would however not have been necessary due to the low weight :-)), we also tested the different speed levels , This works very simply by repeatedly pressing the "Speed" button, and we are really surprised, because the noise in the second, the strongest level, reminds me (yeah, I was there really time before Eeeewigkeiten) to the ventilation of a solarium. Non-Interference by day, but the night is pressed once more on the button and enjoy the sleep mode :-).

On top of the unit blows out nice cool fresh air, a sense of what a "fresh breeze" is what I feel, especially in the bedroom as very pleasant.
Important concerning the installation location of the device (shows a look into the manual) is that behind and the side of the device must be at least 20 cm of space above the unit and a minimum distance of 30 cm should be maintained. Other important notes before first use are in the User's Guide and should be read before!

So, a look at the manual tells us then that you can adjust the sensitivity of the air quality sensor, wow! There is namely three levels of sensitivity! If you set a high sensitivity, the device starts the air cleaning already at a low degree of contamination.
Here are the three steps:
- Standard
- High sensitivity
- Very high sensitivity

Default is the "Standard" setting, we also have the other of course all tried.

So, after some initial blinking red in the children's bedroom, the light was purple and then blue, and we started in the first night with the fans, so switched to idle mode. After two days, the children were allowed to itself on and off -the operation is really easy. After the third night, we had the idea to try out the timer, and this setting is manual thanks to a no brainer and the timer can be set to 1, 4 or 8 hours. After this set by us for the night 8 hours he went from really.

To clean the air purifier, there are also clear and concise information in the manual is easy to understand. The air quality sensor should be cleaned about every 2 months depending on the ambient air and dust, the pre-filter can also easily with a vacuum cleaner, a soft brush or running water. The activated carbon filter and the HEPA filters need to be bought and replaced after a certain time, which is a displayed with a visual signal on the display. This exchange is also described in the manual easy.

And now the most important thing:
COMPLIANT WITH LUFTREINGER our expectations?
You can feel a difference in INDOOR AIR?

YES and YES !!!!

We can test several weeks it now, and as we have only one, were only the children benefit from clean air. Sneezing? Not one MORE! A gutgelauntes daughter after getting with direct passage to the bathroom instead of the handkerchief box :-) We are excited !!!!

After my children now have a good night, I wanted to put the unit (with a guilty conscience to me and accompanied by heavy protests of my children) in our bedroom, because I wanted to try it yourself (the breathing problems at night are always a nuisance). And it's really not to think: Since the device in our room is (off five feet from me, when the children were about three feet), I have like no nighttime breathing problems more air shortage or, I sleep really by! The cooler air flowing through the air outlet can be a really super breath, and I'm totally excited about what this device can do! My daughter and I should get now actually share a room, because, unfortunately, we see only one of these devices and need, how do we solve the problem ;-)

CONCLUSION:
This air purifier Philips is highly recommended and I would buy it again!
We are wondering about a second zuzulegen us so that we are in every bedroom one.
For all allergy afflicted a strong buy recommendation! Staying asleep, waking up fit, despite allergies no sneezing in the apartment are the main reasons for us to recommend this purifier Philips hesitation.
