After using the Honeywell Air Touch U2 for over a month in my Thane (Mumbai MMR region) apartment, I’ve formed a clear idea of what it offers in everyday use. This is my first experience with a full-sized air purifier, and while it has some quirks, I’ve come to rely on it more than expected, especially given the humidity and lack of ventilation in my rented flat.
2Filtration and performance
The Honeywell Air Touch U2 uses a seven-stage filtration system to remove dust, smoke, VOCs, pollen and other airborne pollutants. It has a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 650 m³/h, which means it can handle large rooms or even small apartments comfortably.
In my living area, the difference in air quality was noticeable within days. The air felt fresher, cooking smells faded faster, and there was less visible dust on furniture. I mostly kept it on Auto mode, which automatically adjusted fan speeds based on air quality. In this mode, the noise level was quite low and hardly noticeable. However, when set to the top two fan speeds, the noise increased significantly, to the point where I had to turn up the TV volume to hear properly.
Even without lab tests, you can tell that the purifier is effective. The PM2.5 reading drops quickly, and the air smells noticeably cleaner. The front-to-top airflow design ensures that the purified air circulates evenly around the room.
