Models by Levoit, Medify and BlueAir would all look at home in any medical office.
Luckily, the Mila app works well.
The purifier paired quickly and without problem, and remained paired the entire time I tested the Mila.
This is the first way that Mila really allows you to customize your experiencethrough its modes.
On some higher prefs, like all purifiers, the Mila can be loud.
It never rose to a level that would prevent a phone callits merely a background white noise.
I chose that last one, called the Overreactor.
The Mama to Be Filter only covers 540 square feet, versus Big Sneeze, which covers 950.
Replacement filters were also on the high sideas much as $115 for theOverreactor.
Smart advantages
A smart purifier has a few advantages that are worth considering.
The first is that most purifiers recommend you replace filters every six months, but thats really generic advice.
Smart purifiers tell you precisely when to replace a filter based on real-time usage.
With the cost of these filters, that feels important.
During the month I had the Mila, my shedding dog was constantly in the space.
Otherwise, it remained at 99%.
However, if youre looking to clean for viruses, other filters screen for smaller particles.
The Mila screens down to .03 micron, but Medify and others screen down to .01 micron.
Other filters cover the same area at less than half the price, even smart ones likeLevoit.
If it went through a dramatic price reduction, itd be a rave.
