Like; Price is ok. Its a larger size than my old filter. And the filter inside is larger, seems a better quality.
Noise; not much noise.
Assembly; easy, fast!
Bit heavy but not bad. I was able to lift it myself.
The AUTO function; green light goes on - means air quality is good. Then the filter goes to a lower setting, less air goes through. I guess if air was bad it would increase the flow-filtering.
Our building apartment is full of strange black dust and it turns into like a tar on surfaces when its been wet or meets oil from my hands on our desk. Might be the 3 new house construction sites around us causing this. It also fades all our pictures on the walls and grocery... lists we post. Something bad is in the air! Dries the mouth, throat; biting my cheeks, lips, tongue. Lot other problems.
I am testing this filter to eliminate this strange air problem. Even though Auto setting says air is ok; I am setting it to high to filter as much air as possible.
UPDATE: down to 4 stars, July 25; Air Filter still says air is good (green light) but apartment is covered with strange black dust. Coughing, dry mouth, throat. The black dust has a acid like effect; rotting my cloths, pictures, notes on wall... I think I have to move out of this area of the city. I still cannot understand why the filter says air is clear, clean but in reality it is not. Same as other reviewer states about pollen.
Keeping review not lower than 4 stars because it is not Bissell's fault that I am stuck living in an unusually bad air quality area.
Sept 7, 2023 - updating review to 5 star; Cleaned the filer today and noticed it caught ALOT, TONS of grey, black dust. I noticed more dust on tables... lately so checked the filter and cleaned it. This machine WORKS! Thank you! Its so bad here I still have to move, but this does help.

Bissell is a great brand and this purifier is no different
Technology can be overwhelming to many people. There's just so much of it that it seems like it can take over our homes and lives pretty quickly. While that may be true with screens, sensors, lights, and phones, technology can also add many great benefits. One of those benefits is air purifiers! Sure, they've been around for a long time, but we never had one growing up in the 90s. Now you see them in a lot of offices as well as homes. And that's a great thing. We can all use more clean, inside fresh air.Last summer, our state was ravaged by wildfires. Our communities pulled together, and we persevered. But most of our homes were left with awful air quality. Air purifiers like these were like Pandemic toilet paper, sold out everywhere. We could grab another one from Amazon before the rush came in, but now we have added a few extras. We have six now, and I'm so glad we do. We don't run all of them 24/7, and the biggest one is set to Auto and is in the middle of the house.This Bissell unit we have in our master bedroom. It also runs on Auto and does a great job running when it needs to, even though sometimes it will run throughout the night and be loud. It has three levels, low, medium, and high. When the LED light shows green, it's good to go, yellow shows some purifying is needed, and red means it needs full power. Unfourtanlty, the medium pushes the unit pretty high, and it is loud. It can be jarring at 3:00 AM, but we're used to it now.This particular purifier is our latest addition. It's pleasing to the eye while not occupying too much space. We have it tucked between our smaller and larger dresser (see picture). It's big enough to handle a large room but small enough to be out of sight, out of mind.This particular air purifier does not have a WIFI-enabled app or anything, but honestly, with the auto feature, you don't need one. If it detects the air getting bad, it'll automatically start running until the air is better again. You don't need an app for that!
