The latest offering from the company has a unibody design to minimize the loss of energy and enhance the efficiency of air purification.

The device uses the Dyson Air Multiplier technology, which will create a low-pressure zone inside the elliptical ring at the top.

And, the air purifier can oscillate for up to 350 degrees.

The filters used in the current-generation model is similar to the one used by the Dyson Pure Cool Tower. In the Link, it has a layer of filter positioned under the mesh and includes the HEPA and carbon mesh to filter the air. The HEPA filter ensures that the air in every nook and corner of the room is purified.

There are buttons that are carved into the body of the air purifier and these do not protrude giving a flat feel.

This prevents losing the remote control as it can be placed on the device.

While there is an option to get hot air from the air purifier, the body of the device does not get overheated due to the same. It retains the same exterior body temperature as there is enough mechanism to control it.

Talking about filter life, the HEPA and carbon filters life will be displayed on the information menu of the app. The filter will usually last for 12 months if you use it in heavily polluted areas. If you want to get them replaced, then you can get them for Rs. 1,900 each.

The device bundles many attractive features and shows all the information that is needed on the comprehensive screen. Though it is expensive, the Dyson Pure Hot + Cool comes with a capable app, voice control features and more. The one thing we like about it is the ability of this device to remain cool and not to dissipate heat from the surface of the body even when it is used to blow hot air.
