The IKEA Förnuftig air purifier’s light weight, low noise, and low maintenance costs make it a worthwhile investment, but its lack of smart features, low CADR, and missing UV bulb might dissuade a few.

Overview

Intro: The 2021 IKEA Förnuftig air purifier is a budget pick that pledges to efficiently clean indoor air or improve air quality thanks to its 3 stage air filtration system. The air purifier is optimized for use in a small space, making it perfect for users that want to use it in one room.

It also features a floor stand that gives it a more elegant look compared to the Blue Air Pro XL, but if floor space is too tight, it can easily be mounted on a wall.

Changing fan speeds is as easy as turning a dial, making the Förnuftig air purifier perfect for users that appreciate the ease of use. Stick around for the rest of this IKEA Förnuftig review, and see how it compares to the top-rated air purifiers in the market.

What Is Not on the Box

What the brand doesn’t always tell you…

our Verdict

The IKEA Förnuftig air purifier is a great fit for small rooms. Its pre-filter is great for pet hair and dander, but its HEPA filter isn’t medical grade. It’s small and light, but lacks smart features like Wi-Fi. Low power consumption and maintenance costs are a plus, but no ionizer or UV light bulb.
