Philips Hue lamps on Black Friday - What are the best deals in the UK? (2024)

We have rigorously tested numerous air purifiers and smart air conditioners and pushed them to their limits. 

Therefore, we have gained a great deal of experience and can make an informed analysis. 🤓

Our standardised tests in a true-to-life environment enable us to evaluate each device accordingly and make a recommendation for every other household.

The first step in our testing process is to conduct extensive research, both nationally and internationally. 

This gives us an overview of the latest developments and features that these devices can offer.

The next step is the standardised practical test. 🧾

Here we pay particular attention to everyday use, which includes:

• Air purification for fine dust: How effectively can the device capture the added dust?
• Odour elimination: Is it able to diffuse all the unpleasant odours in the house efficiently?
• Loudness: Is the unit annoyingly loud or barely perceptible in daily use? How does it behave at night or during a cosy movie night?
• Power consumption: We measure the power consumption and calculate whether and how this will be reflected in your bill.
• Smart features: Are there any smart features and do they make it easier to use the air purifier?
• Design, dimensions and mobility: What is the workmanship like and how user-friendly is the device?
• Price-performance ratio: Are the purchase and follow-up costs justified?

We check whether there are comparable products in this category and pit the models against each other in a direct comparison.

Then our articles are read by our smart home experts and checked for accuracy of information.

These test criteria help us to draw an effective conclusion and provide sound buying advice to help you find the best device for your needs.
