Voodooman Supersonic June 22, 2013 Share June 22, 2013 How do u rate Amway's Atmosphere? Amway is MLM, so you get a lot of excellent reviews on the net. Can't understand why air purifiers in Singapore are so expensive relative to the same model sold in the states, it costs like 3 to 4 times more, incredible. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman888 Moderator June 22, 2013 Share June 22, 2013 heard air purifier very power consuming, on aircon and purifier together like double the electricity [sweatdrop] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think pple can go online to say its good but ultimately readers will compare base on specs Cars in singapore also expensive but pple still buy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic June 22, 2013 Share June 22, 2013 heard air purifier very power consuming, on aircon and purifier together like double the electricity [sweatdrop] yup. to run it 24-7 i think is just below aircon... Cos are essentially using a fan to pull air through the hepa filter which is not easy to pass through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices i saw in USA are not cheap also. honeywell in USA is already one of the cheapest brands. Presumably cos of 1. simple technology (noisy fan etc) 2. they intend to make more money from filters rather than the device itself (just like how PS3 and xbox sold below cost price)...

Gd point... so if wanna talk abt cost better consider usage over 5 or 10yrs... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben5266 Supercharged June 22, 2013 Share June 22, 2013 honestly speaking, i won't mind buying a sharp plasmacluster if it's available in singapore easily but i'm guessing its sold out pretty much when i checked few days ago. stuck at work, no time to go hunting around in the shops... I am getting 2 from KL today.... More ex In KL than SG but SG won't have stock in the next few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodCar 4th Gear June 22, 2013 Share June 22, 2013 (edited) Some car model should have build in cabin air filter, please chk and replace where necessary. Those travel to China may want to buy from there, get local brand hi end model. Use to have one that come with Pre, carbon and HEPA filter and ionizer. Tested back in Sin with one of those MLM purifier, the mLM show room had an instrument that test particle, the result of the China make was just as good at one tenth of the price.

Yup. Just ensure there's some sort of pre-filter can liao. Americans also augment their own filters. They seem to have a lot of fireplace filter material which are good and cheap. They use that to filter off soot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So_nice 6th Gear June 22, 2013 Author Share June 22, 2013 Decent read over here. Now I understand car purifier is an overkill so long we have good grade Air con filters.. Now I guess need an air purifier for the house..sharp, Honeywell..philips..Samsung..Panasonic.. I think osim also haf. Dunno the stores still got stocks bo. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
