Our Veredict

Overall, the performance in our standard testing of the PureZone Mini doesn’t compare to the larger air purifiers for obvious reasons – it’s smaller, has a smaller filter, and less power. It’s not designed to be used in a 200sf room.  It is designed for a small area such as a car, desktop, etc.  It’s likely more ideally suited to a 100sf room or smaller. That said, it does perform well, even under less-than-ideal conditions. Its USB connection plugs into most cars with USB ports and will fit nicely in a car cup holder. As far as a car option is concerned, this is a better design than the others that use the cigarette lighter because many of those are hidden inside of the console in today’s cars.  This is a good option for getting smoke smells or the odor of smelly gym clothes out of your car.  It could work on a desktop, but for a small office I’d recommend a larger option such as the Megawise or Koios. I would consider this a good option for a car air purifier, or small space such as a powder room, pantry or closet.

Air purifiers have become essential devices for anyone looking to improve the air quality in their personal space.

The PureZone Mini Portable Air Purifier stands out as a mini air purifier designed for those who need air purification on the go. With its true HEPA filter and activated carbon pre-filter, this mini portable air purifier effectively captures 99.97% of dust, pollen, pet dander, and other common irritants. Its compact size and lightweight design make it perfect for travel, fitting easily into car cup holders, hotel rooms, or even on a bedside table.

PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier: An In-Depth Review

We took it into our own hands to purchase and test the PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier and give you our honest review. The PureZone Mini is designed to be taken on-the-go with a 2-stage filtration system, rechargeable battery, 3 fan speeds, and weights less than one pound. Said to clean up to 6 square feet in only 12 minutes, it tackles pollutants including dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke, and odors.

This product is designed to optimally fit and work in small spaces like desktops, tray tables, and car cup holders, and other travel options where you may need it. This product may be best for those who suffer from extreme allergies or asthma as it can help make their personal space more comfortable for breathing 24/7. While it would take longer to clean a larger room and is less powerful than larger air purifiers, it was designed to use for convenience in settings where your larger air purifiers cannot go.

Features and Benefits

Our Experience Testing the PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier

To test the PureZone Mini, we ran it in a room that was approximately 200 sq ft with an existing Air Quality Index (AQI) of 179. We burned incense in the room for about 10 minutes and measured the change in the air quality with an air quality monitor (AQM) before using the product. We then began running the air purifier and took measurements of the AQI after 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, and finally 3 hours. We also listened to its noise output and monitored how it adapted to the space to help us determine its overall product performance.

Initial Performance Testing

After running the PureZone Mini for only 30 minutes, the AQI dropped from 179 to 150. After 1 hour, the AQI dropped to 118, and after 2 hours it was down to 68. When we checked the AQI after two hours, it was at 28. These measurements indicate that the air purifier was likely still working to clean the air even after 3 hours. Since it is a much smaller air purifier than other models, it takes longer to effectively clean the air, but it is still working consistently. Based on our tests, it will likely clean the air in the entire room within the 4 hour mark. Compared to air purifiers such as the Leviot Core Mini that can get the air quality down to normal in typically 2 hours or less, you should consider what best fits your needs. So to recap,it should work well in a smaller, confined space, but it’s less efficient for a large space.

Noise

In testing the PureZone Mini, we wanted to assess its noise quality features, especially if planning to use it in public spaces such as a car or plane. On the low setting, we recorded 33.2 decibels (dB) while running, which was very quiet and blended into the background noise easily. However, this low noise meant too low of a fan speed to really make a difference in cleaning the air. On the medium setting, the noise level increased to 41.9 dB, which while noticeable it wasn’t distracting, and the pitch was higher which may have made it easier to tolerate and tune out. On its highest speed, we recorded 50.8 dB, which was similar to the noise of a small personal fan. This made it a bit loud, but it also came with a powerful fan setting so it is up to your personal preference if you can tolerate that. Overall, we recommend running it on the medium setting to get both optimal performance and noise management. Low might not be effective enough, and while high is a fine option it is a bit noisy.

For context, here are some noise level comparisons with some common daily sounds that you may hear in places that you bring it:

Fan Speed on PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier

We also measured the fan speed at each setting to help determine the CFM, which is how much air the purifier is able to move and circulate in cubic feet per minute. This essentially translates to overall the efficiency of the air purifier.

On the lowest setting we registered the PureZone™ Mini fan speed at 19.7 ft/min. For context, a typical small space heater fan moves air at about 256 ft/min. So the low setting is well under this standard and would need to run for a while on this setting to be able to function effectively.

On the medium setting the PureZone™ Mini fan speed registered 78.8 ft/min. This shows that on the medium setting the Mini Portable’s fan is moving a decent amount of air but over at a slower pace than larger models. However, considering this was the most tolerable noise level, then this is likely the best setting for most people traveling with it or using it in a confined space for longer periods of time.

On the highest speed (high fan setting), the PureZone Mini fan speed registered at 177.3 ft/min. This is fairly powerful for such a small device and shouldn’t be discredited if you don’t mind the noise. While probably best for use in a car, travel van, camping area, confined desk space, and more, it can do its job as needed.

Overview of PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier

The PureZone Mini uses a 2-in-1 filtration system made up of a vacuumable Pre-Filter to capture larger particles, followed by a HEPA filter and deodorization filter to remove super small particles such as bacteria and viruses, to smoke particles or food smells. With an auto 3 level airflow control system, this air purifier is hard to beat. 

The key feature is that it is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. If running on low, it can run for about 12 hours, on medium for 6 hours, and high for approximately 2.5 hours. This makes it great for an on-the-go solution for clean air, especially if you are traveling somewhere that you know has hindered air quality.

Key Filter Features

  • True HEPA Filter: Eliminates 99.97% of germs including dust, dander, pet hair, pollen, mold spores, and smoke in the air.
  • Activated Carbon Pre-Filter: Efficiently traps odors and harmful gasses.
  • Minimal Replacement: It is recommended to replace the filter unit every 6 months, minimizing the maintenance you need to perform.

The typical price of a replacement filter is around $9.99 which is expected to last around 6 months. Changing the filters when due periodically can help improve the functioning of the air purifier and ensure its longevity.

To replace it, just simply unscrew the easy twist of base from the air purifier and remove the old one. Once you replace it with the fresh filter, rescrew the bottom, and if charged, it is ready to use.

Total 5-Year Cost of PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier

When assessing the total 5-year cost of this air purifier, assuming replacement of the filter once a year at $9.99, the total cost for filters would be $49.95. Along with the original purchase price of $49.99, the total 5-year cost of the PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier would be only $99.94. This is a small cost to protect your health over the course of its use in adaptable settings.

How to Use the PureZone™ Mini Portable Air Purifier

  • Once unpackaged, plug the air purifier into any standard outlet with its USB charging cord and power it up.
  • Using the power button, turn it on once charged and adjust the airflow speed as indicated by levels 1-3
  • Let the air purifier run as needed using its 2-in-1 filtration system to clean the air as needed in any small space.
